you can't say that and not give a reason why!
on one hand we have this, on the other we have Now_Rudi coming in with a special recipe to "make her follow you like a lost puppy"


either way, it's happening - i was a total headass the first time we met, apologised and asked for a "nice dinner" and she asked your place or out, and i took that as a play to have her come over. can't bail out of this situation

would be good to know for future reference though

Potatoes are great - do them sometime if not that dinner.

Asparagus - super easy too. I tend to like the thinner asparagus cooked so it isn't mushy (though I like that way too)...just little bone in it still is my preference.

I take the end (the bulky fibrous end) and place my other hand about halfway up the stem (but little more towards the end and snap it wherever it decides to snap. Be different for each, but that way, you should be left with the good stuff and not the fibrous crap that tastes awful.

So snap them all, throw them in a frying pan of appropriate size for the amount you bought, don't want too big a pan, and slather on a decent amount of butter and cook at medium heat. Also add some kosher salt at this point, get the butter all over all the asparagus, just turn them around till they are good. Once it starts to heat up a little, but pretty early on in the process, I like to then add lemon juice over top as a base for it to cook in. At this point, once the lemon juice gets hot, they steam cook pretty fast, so watch them. They should turn a nice bright green and they are good to go if you want them with a bit of a bone in the middle, or leave them a little longer and they'll get softer.

So butter, kosher salt, and lemon juice.
After what you just did to asparagus, u just lost my vote

Break, steam, enjoy

No offense to my man Fast and Furiously, but we are cut from the same cloth, but opposite sides of the fabric. Similar in many ways but one of us is a bang'em and slang'em out the door guy and the other is reformed hopeless romantic. One of us appreciates a toy, the other appreciates the inner mechanics and all the gears that make the toy do what it does.

You'll be fine, just have a good time. Make sure you clean up afterwards, chicks hate a mess even if they don't say anything about it. Leaving a mess shows immaturity as well, she'll be impressed afterwards. Obviously don't know what she is like, so I'm generalizing.

Make her dinner, then clean up and do the dishes. After that go check the oil in her car before she leaves. You won't be able to keep her away.

Adding check tire pressure because the temps dropped so her tires are probably down a few psi.

Oh - and clean as you go. Don't wait until after dinner to clean everything.

Check the back seat for room and "comfort". She'll appreciate that.

How long have you been dating?

My reason why is b/c I have done it a few times & then you seem like a pushover etc & they just roll looking for the bad boy type. Maybe not quite that cut & dry, but you get the point. Like many things in life, timing is key...

You can cook a girl dinner and still be an Alpha male......just don't pull her chair out!

In my experience, it wasn't so much the bad boy image when dating that attracted them....it was the I don't give a fu@k where this goes attitude I had as I genuinely didn't. I was only living in the moment.

Don't be surprised.....it's as much a game to them as it is to us. My wife still sticks around because she is still trying to figure me out I believe.

That's part of the perceived "bad boy" persona for them, dude.

I just turned 45. But I was single from the ages of 28-35. I had more fun than I should have probably!

So I had this plan. The wife is working some long days of mandatory OT and I know she loves chicken Marsala so I'm going whip some up and have it ready

I'm struggling finding Marsala in the local store, but went ahead and picked up some chicken. No mushroom available. WTF???



Oh yeah, it's bingo night
