Question's a bit vague I'm afraid. A vague idea of a budget would help.

The easy answer is "the city" given that you haven't mentioned what this Lothario is into.

The smartass answer is "clubbing" as if you're going to "drag a UL lad on a date" you may as well knock him out first.

The convenient answer is "somewhere in the city with food". Men like food.

The personal answer is "get a tea-pot, some hot water, white tea, Mr Kipling's French Fancies and go for a nice walk down the river on a sunny day" but then I'm odd. I consider a weekend morning in the milk market followed by the eating of cake to be a day out.

Summary: find something in the city. Something that doesn't involve clubbing or a tea-pot. Not too helpful as suggestions go but if you come back with some pointers, one of the typical or garden male types will give you ideas.

no offense shay, but it might be a bit early in the relationship for a tea-pot and a walk.

only saying like

ergonomics

Myself and my OH went to the indoor pitch and putt the other week and had a great time. It was fairly cheap, €15 for the two of us, and I think it's open until 11 at night. The game lasts about an hour and gives ye a chance to have a chat while you're playing.

Personally I like the smartass answer... maybe go for something to eat before hand (Shay is right ..... men like food)...but after that pub and club all the way....

You don't wanna be too serious !!

It's Scary:eek::eek::eek::eek:

*Sigh* Dating is so overrated and I have an irrational fear of it; could be do with my commitment-phobia, though.

However, if you must... I second the uni-golf suggestion made by ergonomics; great craic altogether. Bar that, the only other option is, really, going for food and/or drinks. But at least make it as far as Synotts or Finnegans! Although, if you're like me, I'd definitely go for the Stables so that I'd be 100 per cent sure of meeting other people and no longer being 'on a date'. *shudder*

Cinema seems like the obvious answer... if it's early days you don't have to come up with much to talk about before you go in and when you leave, you can chat about it over a sundae in mcdonalds!

If liking French Fancies is odd, then I don't wanna be even (or whatever the appropriate opposite is here) :pac:

Bring him to Unigolf, it's a great idea as others have pointed out!

Also, welcome to UL Boards/Boards.ie in general!

Sundae...... hell no .... splash out for a McFlurry!!!!
THe new Toffee Crisp one is savage btw!!

cinema is a crap idea unless you like the idea of not talking and sitting in silence for 2 hours and then at the end wondering if he is just going to lean over and kiss you or not even though you know him no more than you did two hours ago

its the easy option alright but the worst one

go for a pint in town to a pub that is not trooms icon or mollys ul lads dont really spread their wings too much outside of those 3 and there are plenty of nice pubs in the city

Alot of the replies discuss it as though it were the first date!!! At this stage I hope it's gone further than that. If so what I - as a UL lad - would personally be totally up for with a UL lass is a movie night. Just the two of ye on a couch eating pizza and ice-cream watching a movie... if it gets boring you can always turn it off and turn something else on!

Cheap, Simple and .... oh yeah!! :P

Really all we want when we're on a date with you is that you are there and there with us...

by the way "drag" mightn't be the best terminology - sounds a little too much like it's unwanted - defeating the purpose of a date!

kaimera

and update on said date?

I am 'that' bored right now.

TheInquisitor

How serious a date? First date sure just go to storm otherwise maybe luigi malones then angel lane for the craic

Personally I'd recommend you spent an evening together in the UL gym, it is a great facillity where you can get to know each other better.

if all else fails, she can use him as a pull buoy!

Seriously guys. I brought my current girlfriend, the lovely Linda, on our first date upstairs in the student union building for a roll at lunch time.

It was ideal. The leather coaches were great for make out time. Then when I had my fill I could surf boards on the wireless internet:cool:

But seriously, listen to this man. A lothario if I ever saw one!

OP, how about an update as to where you did drag him. We do love drama on this forum.

It's no wonder half of those involved in the ULSU are on here, if ever I encountered a bunch of overly curious and dramatic people then it's there!

On the subject of drama, yes please do tell where he was dragged and more to the point if he ever made it out again!!! (you can read that in whatever way you want :rolleyes:)

A general "how to go on a date" handbook could be a good use for some of them people from Americay that tumble around here from semester to semester.

The Irish, including myself, generally don't have a fv<king clue.

BD or whoever madame/sir is next year might bear this in mind;)

Would that be an Education issue and come under the ULSU Education Office ????? :D:D:D

or a Welfare Issue maybe????:D:D:D:D

or a matter for Clubs and Socs??:D:D:D
