1. I have dates with a 22 y/o and a 35 y/o next week (I'm 27). Do I run the same first date materiel from Bang on both?

2 & 3 are logistical problems due to being on the Big Island of Hawaii + me living with my Dad at the moment (bringing them home isn't an option).

2. I haven't been able to find a single bar with decent comfortable seating, best I can do is a diner style booth (each side separated by table). Do I sit on the same side as her? Is that too eager?

3. You have to drive everywhere here and there's no public trans or cabs. Is there a non-eager way to position offering her a ride? If it does come down to us both driving, what's a natural reason to steer things back to her place?

You should run the same game but there are a few nuances.

2. Sit on the same side. Not eager. You sure you can't find a different venue, though?

3. Offer to pick her up at her house before the date starts, so you can drive her back to her place afterwards.

Then, when you are dropping her off, say "Where should I park?"

Once you park, say "Well, I have a really long drive back to my place. Could I use your bathroom?"

Thanks Samseau. The 22 y/o ended up flaking but I got the bang with the 35 y/o. She was cool with me picking her up and the bathroom line worked well. Very little resistance, I just don't think she was going to outright ask me in.

Glad to hear it.

LOL. Old-school move. It never ceases to amaze me how those classic moves still work. "Just the tip."

I love the tip, it's classic and every man should have that in his arsenal.
