UPDATE: (Page 35) Everybody Hurts

I order the largest portion of red meat available to exert my masculinity. I also strike my waiter/waitress if they make eye contact with me.

This always works.

I'll order like a grilled chicken sandwich and a salad or something like that. I guess sissy was too strong, but mainly just saying I don't order a big ass steak. Especially on the first date. I'm trying to get her to like me because I'm funny and charming, not because I have the same entertainment value as a National Geographic special on lions.

I always order the steak and then order the salad and a coffee for my date. Then strike my waiter/waitress whether or not they look at me. They're the help, I will exert my authority.

I usually take a girl to Ponderosa. If I'm looking for something upscale, Fogo de Chao.

No matter what she orders, it's always a good idea to suggest to her that she might have an eating disorder.

If she orders something light, talk about the dangers of anorexia.

If she orders a heavier meal, tell her it's okay if she needs to take time to purge.

Also, just an idea to keep the conversation flow going strong during dinner.

Seriously, just make sure you're not ordering like the cheapest thing on the menu. For a girl that's super annoying.

A sandwich? On a date?

Ok, first off. You've apparently been going on lunch dates. Nix those. Lunch dates don't lead to anything for the guy. And for the girl it shows a lack of seriousness on the guy's part. Lunch isn't serious. Dinner is serious. Always push for dinner dates.

So we're taking the girls point of view / feelings into consideration now?

I didn't order like that because of the money. But anyway, I don't know why I'm talking like I have a routine. I haven't dated since high school. When I dated then I was a awkward teenager with barely any money and we were going to Chilis or something. It'll be different now.

We hadn't really decided on a place. Where should we go?

EDIT- I haven't gone on first dates since high school. I had the same girlfriend for four years and I'm only 21, so I'm not very experienced with this sort of thing.
