Sure if the guy and I are raking leaves, great leaf pile! On a first date with me in one of my best first date outfits? Hell no! When I refer to being spontaneous, I mean driving to the beach at 1:00 a.m. or going out at midnight to breakfast or cocktails after a long day working or whatever. How about on a long car trip, pulling over to a secluded rest area to make love or flying to NYC or Vegas on a whim. This stuff makes life fun and connects you to the people you are engaging with. Not swing sets or leaf piles a first date. Know your players. It's difficult to be spontaneous with someone you just met, you don't know them yet.Jayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490365005580901152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-8064395232205380792010-07-27T02:45:11.937-04:002010-07-27T02:45:11.937-04:00Seriously want to go on a leaf jumping date with y...Seriously want to go on a leaf jumping date with you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-5582843045489347682010-07-13T05:12:24.755-04:002010-07-13T05:12:24.755-04:00It sounds like this was your fault for not seeing ...It sounds like this was your fault for not seeing that she wasn't into that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-15511206721168998402010-06-05T13:31:42.243-04:002010-06-05T13:31:42.243-04:00Jumping in leaf piles?

He barely knew this woman, and kept pushing the issue, despite that she obviously wasn't comfortable with this. I'd say the guy is "socially challenged," and very dense.
