And I have no idea what to do. I have some ideas, but money's going to be tight for awhile. Does anyone have any good ideas of what I can do with her?
Back in the day---it was common to take your gal out for an ice cream at the fountain or Dairy Queen. Listening to music and talking in the park. Parking at the edge of the airport and watching 747's fly over us and land---was a cheap date. Cruisin, skating, movie at the dollar theater.... Good luck.
tell her the ferrari got recalled and is being repaired and walk her down to taco bell and split a taco
Personally I'm the "go for a walk, enjoy some icecream or see a movie" kind of guy. It seems simple but in my opinion those are the more memorable things. When my ex and I were together I was trying to plan a nice picnic for the two of us in the park. Unfortunately something came up and it fell through but that was just an example of the type of things I prefer while in a relationship.
I suggest you try to learn how to be a boy and a friend, better, at the same time. In my opinion and in modern times, I believe I should not have to lie to girls I am willing to be friends with.
...text her every 5 minutes 24/7, asking her location, what she is doing and if she still loves you. Chic's like feeling wanted.
A picnic and frisbie brings fond memories. Fishing (if your gal likes it). Course...its harder because it is still winter.
A bottle of wine, and an Uno deck if you have no money.....A dinner made by you if you have a little...and Dinner out with a show if you get more.
walking at the park is good, dates to the dollar menu at macdonalds isn't bad either. its hard times now, they understand. spicy chicken, regular chicken, macdouble, and parfait yogurt to name a few.
If she likes you as much as you like her, just spending time together is enough. A nice Valentine's card would be nice for tomorrow and maybe a box of candy. You can then help her eat the candy.. I bet she will share with you.
oh no....Valentines Day is a day for the hardcore. Show up at her work with flowers....let everyone know you are taking her away for lunch....and make damn sure they know it (if you are unattractive this may not work), make the women she works with feel mistreated which will make her feel amazing. From this point is no longer matters if you buy her a damn burger...you are a wonderful man.
Something perhaps some respondents may not know, our friend Kranes, is 16 years old. Kranes, I'm pleased for you. Good luck.
Do something physical, strenuous, but virtuous. Like hiking, or pottery of a sort. Make something out of nothing - carve a block of wood with exacto knives or something. Then go get a few things off of the dollar menu and fast food place of choice. Times are tough, if they don't get that than you don't need them. If she sticks around after a couple go arounds - she likes you and isn't into you for cash. If she doesn't, than you wasted very little money. My personal rule is that I refuse to spend a lot of money on someone I am not married to.
Listen to her. Do not text while with her. Do not check email or messages while you are with her. If you live in NYC you are blessed with tons of exciting things you can do for free or practically for free, but here are somethoughts: Ice skating- even better if both of you are bad ice skaters Hiking bicycle rides Any sports that she is willing to participate in. Girls like to dance. Be willing to risk embaresment(yours, not hers) Ethnic festivals- preferably ones neither of you know much about. If she has any brothers or sisters, be nice to them- get them on your side. Have fun. Young love is wonderful.
Just don't neuter yourself in the process. Do not join the ranks of the beta males. They are a dime a dozen. And remember, she is disposable - just like you. Don't break you back over it. Have fun.
okay then...my revised advice based on age. Tell her you think she is wicked cool, buy her a burger, and walk to the mall. Once there go to the poster shop and ask her what her favorite is, go to hot topic and get a matching t-shirt....then go to cinne-bon and tell her she need not worry about he fat content. Smile and say nothing stupid. Rinse and repeat in some way for about ten weeks. wait to be replaced.
why is it so difficult to find nice girls who are willing to be friends, even in the most heterosexual of manners and fashions, in modern times?
Oh I know a dude that quite literally does this. She literally hates him and is in the process of leaving him. - - - Updated - - - Don't take it too seriously or overthink it. She should be interested in you and not the distractions you can provide.
