The hook — as said out loud
Ranking things guys do on a first date.
The script — as said out loud
Ranking things guys do on a first date. Confirming the day of S tier it takes 30 seconds and tells her she's on your mind. Do not skip this paying S tier. Take the girl out. Just pick a spot that makes it an easy yes for you and don't make it a thing. Texting her after to say how it went. S tier and wildly underused. I had a great time. I'd love to see you again. That's it? That's the whole text. Just say it. Planning the date and giving her a heads up A tier she wants to know what to wear. Make a reservation in advance. Avoid the awkward like their full moment entirely. Just handle it walking her to her car. I'd say C tier Depends completely on the date. Sometimes it's sweet. Sometimes it kind of opens up a whole new chapter you didn't need to open. Leave it at the venue if it ended well that landing matters. Picking somewhere really fancy. Really nice. D tier Noise level atmosphere. Is it fit for a Tuesday? That's what actually matters. Nice is not the move. Thoughtful is a loud restaurant where you can't hear each other on date one is not impressive. It's just loud. What do you think? Would you rank any of these differently? Let me know below in the comments.
