A third drink before dinner shows a lack of respect for oneself AND one's date. At such piggish behavior, put $10 on the table and leave.
Men, don’t wear sandals. Midwestern men have notoriously scary feet.
Men, dive for the check and refuse to let the woman pay. Since you’ve just met, the woman has no other way of telling whether you valued her time and company. (No Midwesternista is a feminist on the first date.)
Women, carry enough cash to pay the check in case he “forgot his wallet.”
Don't wrap up the catfish bones to take home to your cats.
There’s no turnoff like a dinner date who explains that he can’t walk very well right now because a thousand-pound hay bale fell on him.
Women, cleavage shouldn’t look like tonnage.
Something bigger than a breadbox in a car’s back seat – a cooler, pet carrier, cardboard file-boxes, child seat, tools, fishing gear -- shows that there's something in your date’s life that’s far more important than you’ll ever be.
