When you’re finally ready to meet someone o n a first date who you’ve met online, you’ll want to have a great first date idea in mind. First dates can sometimes be a bit difficult to work out since there are many things that you want to take into consideration. Your final choice for a first date idea will depend on how much you want to spend, whether it’s a day time or night time date, and the interests that the two of you share. Since you met online you’ve probably each shared your likes, dislikes, and interests, so narrowing down something to do on your first date should be easy.
You might want to choose an inexpensive date for the first time around so that you can each pay your own way and not feel obligated to pay for a second date. Some good inexpensive date ideas include:
• The movies. Going to the movies is always a good choice since it breaks the ice while allowing both of you to get a feel for the other person. Let your date choose which film you’re going to see. Don’t plan for coffee afterwards; make the decision for coffee or a d rink after the movie is over since you don’t want to assume that you’ll want to spend time together after the film has finished.
• A picnic. If this is a day time date consider going on a picnic if the weather permits. Take along a basket of food and wine and enjoy the day just relaxing in the sun as you get to know each other.
• Museum or art gallery: If you know that you both enjoy art or history this is a great first date idea. You can spend a couple of hours doing something that you both enjoy so there will be less tension and stress.
If you’re feeling a bit more extravagant there are some expensive dates that you can go on. Keep in mind that you want to be sure that your date is comfortable with these types of dates since they require a bit more planning and consideration:
• Concert: Take your date to a concert. This type of date will need planning ahead of time so that you can make sure that you have the tickets in hand. You’ll also want to make sure that your date is interested in the concert that you’ve chosen.
• Dinner: An expensive dinner is a nice way to celebrate a first date but should be reserved for someone you feel particularly attracted to. Expensive dinners can often send a message to your date that they are worth it but might also convey the feeling that there is another date in the future.
• Theater: Tickets to the theater are perfect if you and your date share the same enthusiasm for the stage.

How can i not care what she says
By: voterperson | 02-09-2008
Today I (in my 50?s) put on a beige blouse and peach pants. As I was about to have breakfast. My mom is in her 80?s.
First my mom looked at me with disgust (not disgust at me but like how could you wear that outfit)
Mom: ?You know I don?t like the way that looks - the blouse looks like pajamas with those pants?
Me: ?I know I don?t like the way it looks either?
So then I put on beige pants and had breakfast. And after breakfast
Me: ?How does it look now?
Mom: ?It is up to you what you wear?
Me: ?But how does it look?
Mom: ?I still say the top looks like pajamas?
Me: ?I can?t see that it does - what are you seeing?
Mom: ?That is why I did not say anything? (and she still looked at the blouse with disgust)
Then about a half hour later my mom came into my room to ask me to look something up on the computer for her
Me: ?I still cannot see how it looks like a pajama top?
Mom: ?You know when I wear something you tell me the truth?
Me: ?True. But tell me does it look horrible now with the beige pants
Mom: ?No?
So my question: Would you care if your mom said something like that and would you still wear the top.
PS: (1)
Here is what else she did today. When I was having
breakfast I was watching the small TV that fits onto the dining room table my mom came in and saw the female journalist standing. The female journalist was wearing a dark black or navy blue suit. My mom says "I don?t know why she is wearing that today it is going to be hot all week - she should be wearing light weight summer colors" AND (2) And when I told my sister in front of our mom that I had purchased five blouses for our mom and our mom loved them our mom said ?Oh I really did not like them,I only wore one and I am not going to wear the rest?
