What You Think - What You Say

First dates are social appetizers where we attempt to project an image of ourselves that is whatever we think the other person wants to hear. We never take any true risk in our language or behavior. We never reveal our true selves.
Our culture demands time to acclimate to the eccentricities of the intimate personality.
First dates are the “is this person fucking crazy” test. What kind of drink will this person order? Will they talk about flesh wounds? Will they go the bathroom more than five times? Do they like country music?

Who goes on dates anymore?
When I first met my now-boyfriend, he was just a cute boy on the train platform. I handed him my number before I got off at my stop, didn't say a word. He called, we went for coffee 3 days later. We've spent every day together since.
Sometimes actually getting to know someone is better when you're not exactly looking. That's why people who are best friends turn out to be best husbands and wives. - 3 years ago

actually, watching C-SPAN at the bowling alley is the best way to 1) Keep up to date with our great nation's top lawmakers and the processes they go through on a daily basis to keep our children safe from terrorist scum like Sean Penn, and 2) Eat curly fries and stare at tits with roses tatooed on them.

A first date is like watching C-SPAN at a bowling alley; It's boring and rarely results in any kind of group sex.

Word'em up, I'm down wit O.P.P. yeah you know me!
For real first dates, second dates and even marriages for the most part are all about presenting an image. The reason why most marriages don't work out is because man and wife keep reinforcing one each others images.
There are people out in the world that have been married for several years and have no idea who they're sleeping with in the bed next to them. For the most part relationships or as Dane Cook would say (relationSHITS), are constructed off false images, sustained by attachment and the desire to have some kind of stability.
On top of all this most people don't even know who they are... most people don't even LOVE themselves so how the hell are you going to love someone else? The entire institution of marriage is an illusion don't get me wrong there are a few couple out there that have a true loving relationship but for the most part its the blind leading the blind.
Cosmopolitan magazine tells women how to land a good man but they don't tell a women how to find herself.
Playboy and Maxim will tell a guy what he needs to attract a hottie but what then?
Whatever, we've got 29 degrees of compatibility to filter through the nonsense when we're ready right... GO... eHarmony!
