I think someone might have already suggested that (or maybe it was another thread)...but yeah, I have a feeling it would be the clash of the millenium!

Back when I was in Virginia, I was a on a date that was going great. We had a nice dinner, nice conversation and she ended the date with "Thanks so much for inviting me out, I had a wonderful time tonight". So I said "If you don't have any other plans tonight, you're free to come over to my place and watch a blu-ray with me". The reaction was not what I expected, she got a pissed off look on her face and said "what kind of girl do you think I am?" and did not want to talk to me afterwards. I literally just felt like plopping down on the couch, watching a movie and getting to know her more, I had no hidden intentions or motivations.

I guess the moral of the story is that some women will read way too far into innocent comments like this and assume the worst, so just be prepared. I guess it doesn't hurt to ask early on, because you will want to find out her true personality rather sooner than later.

I don't know how innocent a guy can be ...just a movie? my experience tells me it is always more than that

In this day and age, I don't think emailing/texting is as weird as it used to be (not that I agree with it, but...)

How do you communicate with him? If it's mainly by email or text, he may think that's your preference.

So if he had taken you to a restaurant where the bill had come out to $350, does this mean you would've already have granted him access to your inner depths?

Seriously, it's understandable for a woman to be treated respectfully and like a lady, but from what I read so far, you seem like the prototypical freeloader which leads some men to compare to prostitutes.

now he asked me to come over his place for a MOVIE? I feel a bit offended, do you think he wants to take advantage of me?

how should I answer him if I don't want to go to his place for a movie?
Naw...I'm sure his intentions are all very proper and innocent.
But....umm, ya better make sure and wear your sexy panties, just in case.

I've read it too. I just don't have the willpower to follow 95% of it. It's easier to do The Rules with a guy you're not really that interested in, but unfortunately, I try to avoid dating guys that I'm not really interested in. Good luck with that!
