I like gifts...and I would be pleasantly surprised if they were delivered at work.
With MaNSOTA I made the first move. I think it depends on the two people involved.
I like spontaneous and flaky...but probably because that's the way I can be.

Re: Ask A Forum Gal
Is it really necessary to have so many pairs of shoes? NO, I only own 6 pairs of shoes, mostly casual lace-ups with a nice heel. I only wear shoes that I can wear white socks with
For those female forumers over 18, do you prefer to be called girl or woman?Woman, by men and women older than myself.
Does his car matter? Yes, to a degree.
Be honest, if your date rolled up in a minivan, would you already have a preconceived notion? a little, I might think it's his love bus and he's a creep.
Or if it was all in grey primer, chipped paint, old rag instead of a gas cap. if it's clean inside, I can overlook it.
flowers or chocolate or something else? if flowers or chocolate, would you want it delivered to work so everyone can see you get something, or would you prefer a more private setting?flowers, BUT not red roses(it's too assuming) for me. I prefer pink. It would be nice to get it at work unless one doesn't want anyone to know that they're seeing someone.
would you make the first move or would you expect him to?I'd expect him to, but if he's out with a pack of his buds, I'd probably ignore him. A guy who needs his "frat pack" for confidence isn't for me. I like a loner.
Do you prefer someone who's spontaneous but flaky, or someone who's thoroughly predictable to the point of boring but also very reliable I'd like Mr. Reliable because I'm spontaneous enough for two and we'd compliment each other. A Mr. Reliable would probably appreciate my fun nature but would help keep me grounded unlike Mr. Flaky who would just go over the deep end with me.
Would you see a guy who opened a door for a lady as too old fashioned, or think it was gentlemanly of him? Gentlemanly and very hot. Chivalry is very attractive.

Re: Ask A Forum Gal
interesting...I used to use send flowers a lot, but now i prefer sending potted orchids (yes, i know they are flowers too). They arrive via fedex & are sealed in with the pot & everything. Since they are potted, they last much, much longer than cut flowers. I've been told that some have bloomed for 3 months. PLus, like Natalie mentioned, they avoid the presumption of the red rose.

Do you believe in the ladder theory? That is to say, the male friends in your life will always be "just friends"
Would you date someone who is less intelligent than yourself? Yes, intelligence is difficult to measure, but generally speaking if you have a degree whereas your prospective date is a bricklayer, etc.
which is more important, your parent's approval of your significant other, or your friends' approval of him?

Re: Ask A Forum Gal
Is it really necessary to have so many pairs of shoes? Nope. I have seven pairs- which I don't consider to be many. One pair is my cleats, two pairs are my work shoes, two pairs are sandals, two pairs are flip-flops, and one pair is winter shoes.
flowers or chocolate or something else? if flowers or chocolate, would you want it delivered to work so everyone can see you get something, or would you prefer a more private setting?
I'd probably rather have a book that I've been wanting for a while. I'd be touched though to receive flowers. I'd prefer to receive them in a private setting.
Would you see a guy who opened a door for a lady as too old fashioned, or think it was gentlemanly of him?
Gentlemanly
would you date someone who is less intelligent than yourself? Yes, intelligence is difficult to measure, but generally speaking if you have a degree whereas your prospective date is a bricklayer, etc.
umm.... it would depend on the person and how much more intelligent I am than he is.
which is more important, your parent's approval of your significant other, or your friends' approval of him?
Definitely my parent's approval.

I don't discount something developing with a male friend, especially since I'm more comfortable dating someone after I've gotten to know them as a friend. There definitely are guys who will always be just friends though. I will say that in my experience it's hard for a man and woman to be close friends without romantic feelings developing in at least one person, usually the guy.

I don't consider a degree to be an indicator of intelligence, since I go to school with many people who aren't the sharpest tools in the shed. It would depend on where his intelligence is lacking - is it overall capacity, or deficiency in a certain area? I don't think I could date someone with a much lower overall capacity.

Parents', although if I really loved someone it wouldn't matter much to me if either friends or parents disapproved.

Re: Ask A Forum Gal

Would you date someone who is less intelligent than yourself? Yes, intelligence is difficult to measure, but generally speaking if you have a degree whereas your prospective date is a bricklayer, etc. Yes, but to an extent. Meaning, if he's still working at the burger place where he had his first job and shows no signs of wanting to better himself, I wouldn't date him. BUT, I don't want to be around a pompous "rump"  who thinks they're better than me because of a piece of paper?
which is more important, your parent's approval of your significant other, or your friends' approval of him? parental approval is the most important because I know they have my best interests at heart above all.
P.S. a guy who brings flowers when he picks you up for a date; even if it's just daisies, is making a lovely gesture
