Share the Tale of the Best Date Ever

I made dinner for my (now) fiance on our first date.

It was sweet and sour Mandarin orange beef over orange infused rice. Simple yet elegant.

Did I mention our relationship will reach level 8 (8 years together) in 3 weeks? I must have done something right.
 

Well I just posted my "Worst Date Ever" (which was pretty weak), so I'll follow up here:

It was my senior year of high school, the first true love of my life had broken up with me about a month or so before and I desperately did NOT want to be sitting home alone on the night of the homecoming dance. The problem was that I had no romantic prospects in sight. So I decided to ask a friend. She was cool with that and so we made it a date.

She came over in the late afternoon and we went to the football game together. She looked very cute in her sweater and jeans and the weather was nice. We couldn't have cared less about the outcome of the game so we mostly just sat at the top of the bleachers and talked.

Afterwards she went to her house to change clothes and so did I. We met back up for the dance and she was wearing this green dress that was really hot (actually, I think it was mostly her being hot and the dress was just showing it off really well). We went to the dance and met some other friends, chatted a bit and then started dancing.

As the night wore on, we started getting hot. Very hot. The tiny, window-unit AC system in the school cafeteria was entirely inadequate to cool down 250 dancing teenagers. But somehow, despite the heat, we were dancing REALLY close during the slow songs. And soon we started kissing for no particular reason except we wanted to.

After the dance we went back to my house where a few friends were supposed to meet up to watch movies. Due to various circumstances almost everybody had to cancel except one good friend of mine (who didn't have a date and didn't go to the dance). After rather tersely explaining that "things had progressed in an unexpected manner", I cajoled him into leaving, citing some lame excuse. With him gone, the kissing resumed and continued unabated for several hours.

Yadda, yadda, yadda...

We've been together for over 16 years. Our 10th wedding anniversary is this year and we have a beautiful 3 year old daughter together. She's the best thing to ever happen to me and I tell her that I love her ten times a day. :D
 

Not the best date I've ever been on - most of the best dates my wife and I had were good for reasons too saucy (and upsetting to Eric's grandma) or too mundane (good food, company, movie, etc) to make a good story - but certainly one of the most memorable in a good way (at least for me), happened when I was a senior in high school. I had a friend who was (and still is, unfortunately) an incredible introvert. He was working a part-time job and going to college (sophomore), and the only times he got out to do anything was when another friend and I would go get him from his apartment. My wife (we had married the summer before) had an occassional friend (high school junior) who we believed had been through a series of bad relationships. We decided to set the two of them up, and go along for the first date as kind of a double date.

We got to the Pizza Hut, and everything seemed fine for a while - conversation flowing, the two of them seemed to be hitting it off at least a little - when the girl brought up that she liked pizza with a lot of sauce, because it reminded her of blood.

Conversation after that gradually came to a halt. To begin with, the rest of us joked about it a little even though we thought it was a little odd, but as the girl continued from there, making playful suggestions and innuendo to my friend about how she wanted to drink his blood, it became obvious that while she was happy about the topic, she was not joking.

My friend kept looking askance at my wife and I, trying to determine if this was some sort of practical joke. He could tell and still knows it wasn't, we were as horrified by this change in her behavior as anyone, but he hasn't let us set him up with anyone since - mainly because it is hard for us to talk without laughing about all the conversation that came up afterward. Especially when his mom asked how it went.....

Needless to say, there was no second date for our two lovebirds. :D
 

I went out to a prty with a girl who I had met at a Art opening the week before.

She brought a firend along, which I usually hate :\

As the evening rolled on, the friend started hitting on me, and by the end of the evening--thanks to abundant liquor and a affected "Artsy" mindset from the girls--I mananged to turn it into a menage et tois!

WoooT!

Yes, and I'm glad you recall yours fondly, TB - I've had a few, and while pleasant at the time, any description of the outcome of mine would end up in the worst date thread. One woman disappeared from my life entirely almost immediately after one such incident, another incident resulted in one woman becoming intensely jealous of my relationship with the other (and moving away not too long after), and one woman, after a third incident, ended up marrying someone who might as well be my brother - she and I, and the other woman involved, have agreed it "never happened."

(So much for not offending Eric's grandma!) :D

That's all I needed to hear.

Best Dates Ever. Aftermaths can be another thread:)

I saw these two around occsionally, and hooked up with the origianl girl a few times more but while It didn;tresult in marriage, it was far from a disaster:)
 

Best date ever -
After a wierd series of events and travel plans gone awry I spent one night of Thanksgiving break in my home city. A friend called and invited me to a party which was 3 guys and three girls, hanging out and driving across the city for reasons I no longer recall. They were all cute so I figured out which was the most sane, rejecting the svelt, blond flirt and the leggy brunett.
I spent the whole night making out with the good one, both of us thinking that our paths would not cross again. On the next holiday we got togeather again, and finally got around to exchanging phone #'s and E-mails.

after eleven years, eight in marriage we recall that first meeting fondly.

As to M'.d.T.'s my experiances have been closer to Torms, one that ended a relationship, and several that stopped short, and were never spoken of again.

Adding a third to a succesful relationship raises the level of complexity and makes breakdowns far more likely. On the other hand if it was'nt going anywhere
 

Gentlemen, I thought the first rule of Menage a Trois Club was "We DO NOT talk about Menage a Trois Club".

Am I thinking of the wrong club?
