LOL, if you're taking her somewhere that accepts coupons you're doing it wrong.

What fancy restaurant has coupons?
I guess it depends on what you mean by 'fancy.' Opentable often has gift certificates to decent spots.

I have seen some decent places on Groupon.

My thought it use it but keep it hidden. If you can't hide a coupon from the woman how are you going to hide your extra martial affairs and all the extra money you make?

I agree with others on here, do not go to an expensive place on yoru first date, esp if you just met the girl. Go to a solid place (aka not fast food etc..) save the fancy places for special occasions. Sounds like the guy is desperate IMO. Sounds like the type to call the girl later on that night after the date.

No ETB would go to the fancy place himself, and then give his date the the left over Chinese food from 2 days ago.

It appears you're doing it wrong.

As stated. Opentable, Groupon, Googledeals, and cities that have "restaurant week" or something similar all offer deals on high end places.


Taking a chick on the first day to some lavish spot is f'n retarded. Don't set that standard on day 1. What if she's a raging c*nt. Don't risk it.

Lady in my office pretty much said the same thing. She said don't set the bar high, because we will most likely expect to go to good places all the time.

I have a friend who kinda started out this way, he's a sucker and can't help it.

He lives in Miami, she lives in Ft Lauderdale.

They meet in Miami, he falls in love, she leaves. The following week the dumbass flies her to Miami and takes her out and blah blah....pays for EVERYTHING. He's been paying ever since and they still aren't "together." They came for a visit 2 weeks ago. I didn't see her pull out a wallet, debit card, cash the entire time.

Vagina is a powerful thing.

Your friend is just an idiot. Vagina is a powerful thing, but it's actually pretty easy to get nowdays. Seriously, give me a chick, $50 bucks, a bar, and 2 hours. 9 times out of 10, I'm hitting it later that night.

I won't lie, she's beautiful, but obnoxious. Obnoxious to the point that I had to walk away from her a few times.
