Who was wearing a bathrobe. She said, “The couch is there. She’ll be down soon,” and padded back into the kitchen with her book and brownies." That. Is. Great! not sure if anyone besides me goes back and reads old posts but... I once knocked on the front door of my date's house and her younger, 17 year old brother answered and said he was my date. I said great. We got in the car, I drove to a nearby ice cream store, bought him a milkshake and drove him back home. when we pulled up to his house, he asked why the date was so short. I told him that I'd rather date his brother. My date thought that was great. But alas, it did not work out between us...or her brother ;) “The door was opened by her teenaged sister.

Thats like so "look at me! I'm something special, I hate everyone!" although it would be more so with black lipstick and/or nailpolish, and I can't imagine black hair helps any. I mean seriously. actualy I'm nervous about most kinds of "suits" on girls, because I've seen precious few for anyone older than early teens that look very presentable for a wedding. Can't they just wear those gorgeous white blouses they make for girls (and if you need to wear a white longlseeve T under it to make sure its completely opaque go right ahead) that have all the nice embroidery on them (which they wouldn't ever make such a thing for boys, *pout*) together with a pretty skirt, and maybe even a nice sweater or something? You could wear colors, even if they're a bit muted. am I the only one who finds the idea of black suits on girls disturbing? and even more disturbing the idea of her wearing a black turtle neck and a black skirt with everything else black as well?

Actually, that's not true, I have one black suit, but I only wear it to yeshivish weddings; I don't waste it on dates. Anyway, I believe in wearing colors. My parents have never met any guy that I dated. Thank G-d. And I order whatever I please, within reason, especially if we're just getting drinks.

I don't ever wear black on a first date anymore. There is a small chance it will be DOA, why wear funeral clothing then? And I always order water. I hope I'm not doing anything wrong. It's one thing to refuse a drink, it's another to chose one you'll actually like. Well your friend has got it all wrong. I don’t ever wear black on a first date anymore.

When I spoke to my friend the next day, and I told her what I wore, she literally yelled at me. Apparently a black turtle neck and a black skirt is the "first date outfit." I told her that I don't understand why frummies have an obsession with wearing black, especially on a first date. Its NOT a funeral. She just answered "thats how it works" She also yelled at me for ordering a Sprite instead of the diet coke. *shrugs* I still wear whatever I want, and I still order whatever I want.

Wouldn't try to wear what I wore then anytime soon...Now I generally wear a dressy blazer/jacket with a nice black skirt on the first date..or a jumper. I don't own any suits anymore.

Because the kind of person I hope to marry would probaby go running the other way if my father tried to do him in. So, nu, what'd you wear after all?!
