Tucan Sam's 1st Date Rules

1. Make sure the girl is aware it's a date... (i.e. if she suggests quesadillas because they're delicious and it's a casual "let's get some food" thing, go with it-- don't try and make it fancy by ditching the quesadillas)

2. Don't be late (especially when the girl is notorious for being late, yet she was able to show up relatively on time, even if it was because she was mistakenly motivated by quesadillas)

3. Do not order for her. You may have poor taste in culinary options, and order things she doesn't want to eat, and she'll have to go home and have froot loops for dinner later.


4. Don't answer your phone multiple times during dinner and say things like, "Dude, I'm with this smoking hot chick, I'm not coming to Dave&Busters." It's not polite. It's not cute. It makes it awkward.

5. Read the signs... if she's not overly flirty or touchy, most likely she doesn't want to kiss you at the end of the night.

6. Don't show up at her work the next night and follow her around while she's busy bussing tables and you're saying, "I'm just here to annoy you..." Are you a 12 year old girl? It's not cute. You are annoying her. Secondly, if she's worked all night, and trying to finish up entering tips in a computer, do not wave your hands in front of the screen and try to push buttons. Take a hint- when she grabs your hand and shoves you away and says, "dude, you're irritating me, step off," that means grow up and leave her alone. Not a good time to be "flirting" or whatever it is you think you're doing.

7. When you (in a drunken stupor) inform her that you are planning to ask her out on Wednesday, and she says she can't because she will be taking a nap on Wednesday, and does not suggest another day, and tells you she's really just too busy to date right now... let it go.
