Ha no I didn't. I went on a date to a cat cafe and also just out for coffee. But I stopped dating because I needed to work on myself a bit. Only special people get the fish and chip treatment :)

Fair enough, my delima now is whether NZ fish n chips is better than British fish n chips.

Well that's just preposterous!!! I'm not flying to NZ to buy you fish and chips. It's our national dish and we're very good at it. :eek:. Quite frankly I'm insulted.

I think we're confused about our national dish. It's one of the following:

  • Roast dinner
  • English breakfast
  • Fish and chips
  • Curry. Not proper curry. British curry. Like a tikka masala.
We're just very confused in general atm. :LOL: Well I'm sure you can but sometimes it's nice to be cooked for. Or to pay someone else to cook.

Well I'm glad you enjoyed them. Hmm pretty sure I've made butter chicken before. What date would you feel comfortable going to a guys house for dinner? Nah sorry you'd be banned from the kitchen. You can help with the washing up after if you really must. ;)

Tbh, I wouldn’t feel comfortable going to a guys house on a date, if it got to a stage where we were a couple who been together for a couple of months then yes I would - and of course washing up would come with prepping dinner :)

Nah I also wouldn't go to a girl's house unless we ended up as a couple because there's always a slight chance I'd wake up in a seedy motel with some vital internal organ missing. It's an irrational fear but a fear none the less. Excellent. Well if we're ever I'm each others respective countries we can argue about fish and chips and washing up. :giggle:

Lucky you! I haven't had a date in three years :( I would like to go on one, but it's seeming more and more impossible as I get older.

After my 1st relationship, I was single for 5 yrs, no dates. It’s ok! :)

The man should pursue, the man should pay. Once the relationship is a mutual agreement, the woman should offer to pay and let the man decide if that's ok with him... I'd imagine it would be lol.
