You don't have to be Mario Batali, but if you can make chicken that's not too dry we're in business.
Her answer: Caviar, Sushi, or Foie Gras ... Gourmet is the right way

Her answer: Plays it cool, but is clear about his interest
Balance balance balance. Don't be a doormat, show me that you have your own life.

Her answer: Tell the story, call her ‘a friend.’
Depends. First date = bad idea. Third date on, it's fine. I know you had a life before me.
Her answer: Once a week
Usually? I mean, i talk to mine a lot, so i'm more weirded out by 'never' than by 'often.'
Her answer: Not at all
I mean, it's nice! but not a deal breaker.

I mean, not sure if eating a whole head is a good idea, but garlic is delish, so have some.
Her answer: Yes.

Her answer: One month
Longer if you're searching. But grace time for sitting on your ass and finding yourself? 31 days.
Her answer: No way.
I think it makes things weird and tense.
Her answer: No can do. Pens OUT of company ink.
I mean, if it's we're-getting-married mutual, then maybe. but odds are no. so no.
Her answer: If you know how to be creative on a date.
sure! money can't buy me love.
Her answer: What kind of jobs are we talking about?
Like a million paper delivery jobs? or a million jobs that sort of fit together?
Her answer: Talk about your other interests first
Just talking about your job makes me think you have no other interests.
Her answer: The lady.
I’m the pretty one, dammit. I get the lacies.
Her answer: Sure, go for it.
If it’s a nice blazer that fits and doesn’t look like it was for the larger version of you.

Her answer: The bio section is enough
just want to make sure you’re not a closet nazi or something.
Her answer: Just before we’re…intimate
I guess this depends though. Basically any time after the 3rd date i’m pretty ok with it coming up.
Her answer: Yes
But only if i met them online. You never know.
Her answer: Yes.
Of course! Who doesn’t like pretty things? Just don’t be boring and always get roses. Get creative!
Her answer: Never.
Jewelry is never ‘required.’ I think it’s nice, especially if it’s old, but I never ever expect it.
Her answer: Yes.
Eh, I wish I wasn’t. But VD is a death trap like that.
Her answer: Nope.
We want it if we’re out looking for it! It’s sleazy if it’s a girls’ night and you try to tap that.
Her answer: No.
Not necessarily. Your lady may not care. But odds are she cares a little.
Her answer: Cool.
It tells me that you think I’m sexy. As long as it’s classy and is not of the assless chaps variety.
Her answer: Creepy.
On average? Too soon. If we’ve had an amazing week, I wouldn’t think twice about going away.
Her answer: No.
A Valentine’s Day first date would feel like we’re already ‘dating.’ Too much pressure.
