    It's a mussel, I believe. Very, very good.

    PF Changs Recommendations in this Order:
    This is what (5) of us ate last night there:



    Lettuce Wraps
    Hot and Sour Soup

    Mongolian Beef - Best Beef dish, small grilled pieces of beef with scallions and spice
    Chang's Spicy Chicken - A signature dish. Crispy spicy chicken
    Kung Pao Shrimp - Spicy crispy shrimp

    The Mango Ice Tea there is AMAZING as well.

    The Mongolian Beef is my favorite dish there. And I know the menu pretty well, i'm there at least once or twice a week.


    My suggestion for a date for two:

    Lettuce Wraps
    Hot and Sour Soup or Dumplings

    One Entree:
    Mongolian Beef (unless she doesn't like beef) then Changs Spicy Chicken

    Thats enough for two people and with a cocktail each, it will only run you about $30.

    But on Thursdays its packed so either put your name down before you pick her up or get ready for a wait.

    Man, Smeg, Pole, and now AdmrPhilly76 have had me rofl!

    Since we are talking about flowers, you can always get a gladiola but instead of giving it to her, you stuff it in your back pocket and meet her with it there as well as wearing a hearing aid.

    Oh, that only works for Morrissey...never mind!

    Seriously, I have talked to women friends of mine (mainly at work) and giving a girl (no matter how long you have known them) a flower of any type on the first date is not recommended.

    Good luck!

    Be sure to compliment her on what she's wearing. Don't carry on about how little you've been dating. And don't try to tell her your complete life story since high school on the first date. Leave some mystery about yourself. Leave her guessing about if your seeing other women but in a cool way. Kissing her on the cheek when you say goodnight is cool, but if she sends clear signals that she would like to test the waters a little more thoroughly then go ahead!

    And don't forget to check back with details, Drewdog. :)
    Good luck!

    If you decide to give her flowers don't just give them to her when you first show up at her door. Be different. Put a single rose closed in between the sun visor and the ceiling of your car on the passenger side. While driving and the mood is right ask her to pull the sun visor down and the rose will fall onto her lap. It's pretty high on the cheeso meter but it works. :D

    Also, don't brag to her that you have over 2200 posts at cc.net.

    Unless you suspect she's a lurker.

    Do a google search on "first date".

    I can't access any of the sites because relationship sites are blocked on my network.:rolleyes:

    Nothing like some chocolate cake to black-out one of your front teeth. [​IMG]

    My problem is that I feel like I have to tell chicks everything, and then I turn out to be this sweet guy that everyone is friends with. I end up being the guy in the PG-13 movie that everyone is really rooting for.....

    Damn Ive been out of the game for so long.....

    If you become their "friend", there's a very very short period of time to cross over to the other side.

    If you get stuck on the "friend" side, you'll be banished to "friend" hell - aka no action for you.

    If you can leap frog to the boyfriend side, youve won the game.

    Just remember: A woman can always find a boyfriend (unless she's butt ugly), but she won't "risk" losing a true friend.

    In other words, don't ever become a "true friend".

    Go watch Elimidate on TV for tips.. Never would have watched it, but it comes on after the Rockets game on 51. I think they are soon having one with 4 guys competing for one girl.

    Getting Drunk will break the Ice!!!

    Hey, smeg is getting married, so it must work.

    More seriously. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the girl likes him, and she has had an impression of him since highschool, he should just relax, be himself and every thing will be fine.

    If she doesn't like him or gets turned off by a less than perfect plan, in that case, the hell with her.

    One thing about the 'sweet guys'; yeah, maybe you get screwed (not literally) with many younger, less mature women. But that's not what happens later on.

    To be a little more quiet on dates, concentrate on listening, and have confidence that nature will ultimately hook you up with 'the one'. It's not a lotto w/your 'one' on the other side of the planet.

    And FWIW, your 'one' is probably already looking for 'that' nice guy. As you know, be yourself.

    (I almost feel silly with giving you date advice...I think you're being a little humble here. I guess I see this more as a pep rally. :) )
