Two bakers, two grad students and a writer.
I've gone on four dates this week. I'm going on another this afternoon. I guess I'm sort of selectively old fashioned. I don't have a problem initiating the whole going on a date part, but I still expect the boy to be the one paying for the date. I definitely don't choose expensive places for a first date. The teahouse or a coffee shop or Christian's pizza and if I can tell straight away we won't get along I do pay for my part (or even for both of us, since I've just wasted their time).
