I fear a lot of ridicule and snark is coming, but I figure this is as good a place as any to start with this question.
So I've seen a young woman twice now. Going in, I was pretty sure she was someone I wanted to make an impression on, someone I'd like to see again and again.
So far, at least, she's all that and more.
For our first meeting, I found a wine that met her criteria. She said it was good. The candles in the otherwise-unlit room were, she said, "awesome."
More recently, it was a bottle of vodka, the candles again, and the petals of a dozen red roses arranged in a heart on the pulled-down bed. (Warning: They stained the sheets, lol.) Again, she seemed to be pretty impressed.
But I fear I've now gotten myself into a situation where I have to to something at least equal, if not better, for future meetings.
What other ideas might I sock away for future use? They don't need to be expensive, but they do need to communicate that my appreciation for her is genuine. Thoughts?
Seriously, when you hear her say, "No one's ever done anything like that before," and the appreciation i her voice, her smile, her eyes is evident, you know that what you have done has made bigger impression than an extra $10 would have. And she has no kids.
