That’s a good idea but I wouldn’t go as far as giving a gift after a first date, instead a nice text after the date is over saying thank you for a great date would be suffice, now if we go for a second date then I’ll give a nice little gift as a thank you for a second date.
I dated a guy who gave me little trinkets everytime I saw him from day one. It was annoying! He meant well but I wasn’t feeling it. Looking back it was a sweet gesture and what was weird and annoying to me then is something I’m all for now.

good morning—–TGIF!!

It used to be done all the time by ladies. It is called a “Bread and Butter” note, and it is a “Thank you” for a nice supper or date or excursion of some sort.

Leggs yeah, that’s the way Love goes lol I’m sure the beau get’s tired of me giving him cards randomly lol

I recall one night I sat up and cut up little hearts of paper and on each one I wrote the different things that I liked/loved/missed about him. I stuck them all in random places over his house. For instance, if I said something about how I look forward to having our morning tea together, i’d put that paper in the box of tea for him to find when I was not there…or if I mentioned how I looked forward to laying next to each other at night, then i’d put that note on the pillow or something…

Morning all. On topic, I’ve done it before. It was a giftcard to Starbucks. Our first date was coffee and little get-to-know you conversation. I found out that he was a bit of a coffee junkie(my word)/ connoisseur(his word).

I wanted a thoughtful and open person so I was thoughtful and open about my feelings. Can’t get what you won’t give. Little things still count to many of us.

No, I would not send a man a gift after the first date. I think that would be a weird, and he might think im a crazy-desperate- which i am not. I have bought little things later – if he talks about something and i happen to come across it – other than that no.

wow. before even reading comments I’ll pipe in and say that it has never ever occurred to me to send a thank you gift after a date. I’ll say thanks during the date or after the date or in a phone call following the date but it has never occurred to me to send a formal note of thanks or an appreciation gift. frankly I think that could either work for you or against you. on one hand folks like dealing with appreciative people. on the other hand you might seem clingy for lack of a better word. don’t know if this is a trend that I’m going to get on board with.

A thank you card after a first date could very well come off as desperate…Even though the card would say thank you, he could interpret it to mean, Wow, a man has not showed me any attention in a while, my other prospects are sh!tty, i’ wanna get this thang wet, please don’t ditch me anytime soon.

Morning Gang!

I’ve heard of guys sending flowers after the first date. My now husband showed up at our first date with 3 pink roses for me! I had a few in the past to show up on the first date with a flower. Incredibly sweet and thoughtful, even before we went out! I’ve always had at least several phone conversations before I went on any 1st date though.

As for a lady sending a thank you gift after a great first date, I don’t know about that. People misinterpret so much these days. I would not want to come off as desperate, especially if it was a simple first date, which I think all 1st dates should be. Now if he took me to the Grammy’s or a state dinner at the White House for a first date, I could see it then. In fact, at the very least I would send a handwritten thank you. But if we just went to a movie and grabbed some coffee and dessert, a thank you will suffice.

I always say thank you for a date, though. Even now that I’m married, I still say thank you for nice evenings and gifts. It’s the least one can do and goes along way in relationships and in your career too.

Slim – You would not believe the benefits I have gotten by simply saying or writing thank you! Good manners go a VERY long way. The methods may change(email vs handwritten) but the gesture is the same!

There is this couple at my church that I would consider a “power couple”. They are very prominent in their careers and the community. I had just finished college and moved back home. They invited me to a 100 Black Men function to accompany a cousin of theirs from out of town. I put a thank you note in the mail the next morning. I guess since we lived nearby, somehow they got the card that same day. When they saw me in church that Sunday they told me they get tickets to alot of events and invite people to things all the time, but that was the FIRST time they ever got a thank you note!

Hey DK!! What’s shakin?

On me and Wifey’s first date, she parked her car at a barbershop in Liberty City. She got in my whip and we rode out for a few hours. When we got back someone had smashed her car window and stolen some items from her backseat. She was upset and on the verge of tears. I told her to settle down, got on the horn and called the glass people, paid them a few hundred and they repaired it in about an hour. That was my only after a first date gift.

kimmie – I’ll bite re the essence question. is it wrong? no. I don’t think so. of course it can work or it can backfire. I think what the person is really wondering is if the friendship can survive in case the relationship doesn’t. I can’t speak to that. I do have a childhood friend whose mother tried long and hard to hook me up with her son (friend’s older brother). when I was young I didn’t think much of it. after I graduated college I moved to the dc area where this particular brother lived. we immediately arranged to hook up/hang out. we kicked it, he cooked me dinner, had a great time. still it never occurred to me to date him. years later my friend got married and the mom was again back to her matchmaking trying to get me and her son together. no haps. he married some other chick that the family can’t stand and even with him married the mom insists that it won’t last forever and that I’m the one for him. why did I never date him? not sure. when I was young I don’t think I was mature enough to take him seriously. when I got older I was probably still stuck on my color-struckness. lol. he’s on the pale side. guess I’ll never know how that could have played out.

I have 2 best friends I met freshmen year in college. One had a brother that was a freshman as well. My other friend went out with the brother on the sly. They were hot and heavy there for a few months and then it fizzled. When the sister found out, she laughed! She said if she had known she would have told her up front she was wasting her time. She said “he’s my brother but he is a dog”! The friendship survived fine though. He’s married to a chick nobody in the family can stand though!LOL!!

Like the double standard over disproportionate incarceration rates, unemployment rates, sentencing for drugs like crack vs. cocaine (even though they’re the same drug, just with different clientele), disproportionate selection of minority neighborhoods for environmental hazards like landfills, etc. Before you get outraged over who can say what without creating an uproar, think about the bigger picture.

Bluz~ Remember the convo we had about divided sisters? This goes back to it. To put it in a different perspective, recently some friends of mine from high school were having a very heated discussion on FB about the fact that the Walton HS chorus has elected bot to participate in the ASO Christmas pageant this year because they did not want to pick and choose who would get to attend the show from their chorus. My “friends” were outraged that the ASO was discriminating against their kids by saying that their chorus was not “diverse” enough and therefore they wanted them to mesh with another chorus (I believe it was Tri-Cities or Redan). They said that they could not control who chose to move into their neighborhood. And on the surface, that is an excellent argument. However, if you look at the deeper picture, East Cobb has done an excellent job of making sure that their schools stay “lily white” for the most part. In the Wallton School district, there are no apartments. There is no bus service within 5 miles of the area. Etc. Etc. Etc. Therefore, like I told my friends, you can bob and weave all you like, but the reality is that you take the privileges when they benefit you but the first thing you want to holler is “racism!” when it doesn’t.

I say all that to say, white are the only people I know who “classify” their whiteness. European=white. And, I am sure, that if I looked at you I would never know you are Mexican or Indian or Scottish or Irish or whatever else. Blackness is not like that. From the moment I walk into a room, people know I am black. And just as quickly, they know that you are white.

So, is there a certain privilege that comes along with having endured the history that blacks have? Sure. We get to make off the cuff remarks like Lowery made and it’s not front page news. But the systematic privileges that you receive from being white far outweigh any slight of words that Rev. Lowery may have gotten away with. IJS…

I called my son and let him know that he’d better not be starting mess with my brother or he’d have to deal with me. I’ll give him grown but he’s only so grown. that’s kind of where I am on that respect the elder stance. you may be grown but you’re only so grown. my brother’s not an elder but he’s my son’s elder. my son needed to be checked and he got checked. lol. I felt like I did as a child talking about “you better leave my brother alone”. lol.

Disco, to get respect you have to give you respect, you can only push someone so far. And since he’s your son, you know he couldn’t walk away (IJS) (LMAO)

I have done the tantric thing and it is pretty awesome, but nearly as awe inspiring as they make it sound when you read about it. (At least to me) And you had better have a really comfy mattress because you will be in the same position for a long, long time… IJS

Re: religion

As some of you know from earlier blog posts, I have my MDiv. That being said, I think God sent me to seminary to bring some real world to some of those holier than thou Bible-Beaters. My view on religion is that if I truly don’t believe in my heart I have committed a sin, then God will agree. I’m talking about that inner place that you don’t talk about even with your BFF or your mom. Just my 2 cents…

Disco I understood, but a lot of times we think we can say anything to the younger generation and their just supposed to take it. I’ve had the same talk with my son, about his mother, my mother and my sister and brother, but I also tell them he’s grown, you have to treat him like he’s grown and not a child.

“Guys, what would you do if someone gave you a thank you gift because she really enjoyed the date you planned for her?”

What’s up country folks!!!…The nicest and most thoughtful thing a woman did for me was send me a fruit basket after our date. We really had a great time. The women in my office thought she was crazy. I was polite and offered them some fruit.

disco you know the last part about him walking away was a joke Here’s the scenario:
Lil disco comes home with his lips poked out,
big disco: boy what’s wrong with you
Lil disco: somebody said something and made me mad
Big disco: well did you whop his a$$
Lil disco: no because it was uncle (_____)
big disco: don’t worry about I’ll go whop his a$$

Disco, the uncle should have earned the respect long ago, but when they are grown, there is a different level of respect that needs to be giving.

Robert- was it a first date? If so, I would have thanked you but not sent you a fruit basket. If it was some dates down the line, then that was a nice gesture. Also a nice gesture for you to offer them some fruit instead of telling them to go back to their cubicles…

S/H – it wasn’t blatant disrespect, just a discussion with differing opinions and they went too far. truth be told I know my brother is the hot-headed one but I also know my son is the stubborn one who insists upon getting his point across. either one of them could have or should have decided to disagree but since neither of them did my son is the one I take it too because I feel that he should have pulled back and let his uncle have that one. truth is, what my son really doesn’t know because he’s 23 year old cocky, is that my brother will whoop his A. lol. he don’t want that and I don’t want it for him. I’m bout to dip folks.

Thank you Jaysus! All my problems are solved! Now to just find my bank account information so he can wire me the money….

O/T… I remember many moons ago, a chick, that I really wasn’t feeling, actually sent me a dozen roses after a date. That was new territory for me. What was I supposed to say.”Thank you, they’re beautiful…..” I thought it was odd and it made me feel weird. Imma man, send me a cactus. I got a lot of mileage out them though. For the next few days, any female that I visited, I brought them a single rose. When my potnahs peeped game, they would be like “Dog, let me walk with a few of your roses.” (We were some slimy young men)

@swiss…..“who in the hell would f__k that??” No homo or nuthin, but you ever notice sometimes you see a decent looking dude and then you see his lady and she look like a muffakin troll mixed with wildebeest. I gotta a few associates like that. After I hung out with them, I concluded dude is a smooth brother, the chicks be at him, I now his ole lady gotta be fine as hell. Then I meet the wife or girlfriend and be like… Dayyyum… WTF homey!! I justify it by telling myself…”She must‘ve been with Dog when he was doing bad and she stuck by him. Now he don’t care what she look like, that’s his boo. Either that or he got Shallow Hal disease.
