Sommerauer71: I dislike when a man tries to impress me. He should impress me right from the word go, he did and still does, naturally.
I'm intrigued as to why Cougarwoman thinks that a man would be a cheapie if he stayed home and rented a DVD:
Well I have only read this thread up to this post, But my opinion on the matter is this....For a first date, I do feel that staying home and watching a movie is not only a bad first impression but I would think it might make the girl feel uncomfortable, because she doesn't really even know the man yet, and like Ambose said, most guys that would do that are only wanting that home court advantage, and is going to try to make a move almost as soon as the movie starts... Plus many relationships dull at least a little as time goes on, and if that is the highest point, well ladies it your life....
