Date Mistake #1
Look out, guys. HITCitizen Jamie Morgan is here to set you straight on dating. Ladies, breathe a sigh of relief. Got something to say about it? Your comments below, please.
As she ran out the house and into the street with her almost dried rose-and-lavender-infusion-scented-hair it was exhilaration all round. She approached the waiting TT a little flustered but brimming with the kind of energy that F1 racing cars run on. Realising he wasn't getting out to open the door for her, she kept walking, reached for the door, and gracefully got in.
"So...." he purred with his public school English accent. "Where do you want to go?"
Now, I'm all for equality - don't get me wrong - and I'm sure some well meaning idiots have the misconstrued idea that it's actually very considerate to ask your date what she'd like to do or where she'd like to go.
But you'd be wrong on both accounts. Equality does not exist without respect, and it is not considerate to treat your date with anything but.
So if you have arranged to meet for a drink, reservations should have been made. Dinner, likewise, and the intended party should have been notified. And if you want to know where she wants to go, ask before. Plan. How lazy are you men getting?
If she's not been in your thoughts, don't date her. Why bother?
As for me I learned...
It was not expressly intended as a dinner date, therefore, it wasn't.
And so I got out of the car.
And concluded the date required emergency life support before he even pulled away.

Here Is The Writer : Jamie Morgan
Jamie Morgan is a pseudonym for a tall, blonde working not far from the steps of St. Paul's. But don't bother camping out for her, she flies the wind to and fro her rather glamorous job (which she'd tell you can also be the pits). On weekends, she has pain au chocolate for breakfast and shops for cute collars for her golden retriever named Sam. She's a long way from home, but loves London and won't be leaving us anytime soon.
