    I was so shy at that age, my mother actually set me up on a blind date with a young girl she worked with. I married her. We just celebrated 47 years.

    When I was a teenager, nobody gave me any advice on dating. I knew a lot of swell girls but I didn't know how to date them. The closest advice I received about dating was from health class at school, which only addressed STD's like HIV. I think it would be a swell idea to bring back videos like these to teach life skill to teenagers, rather than just teaching them how to put on a condom.

      Ironically enough, this is why I’m struggling so much in dating. I get rejected left and right because I’m either seen as “not their type” or “too nice”. The majority of the girls I’ve dated in the past have had a history with abusive boyfriends who beat and cheated on these girls. It’s amazing how flipped everything became from the 1950s and how girls now have the upperhand in controlling exactly how they want their dating life to be and guys have no say. At least in the east coast of the United States

    I still remember the first date when I was allowed to drive. It was my dad's car, a '64 Pontiac Catalina. I consider it my first real date. It was after my sophomore year in high school, the summer of 1967. I was 16 and had my driver's license for a couple of months. The girl sat next to me in a study hall in the school auditorium. I surprised her with my telephone call and probably not in a good way. I believe she was unprepared with an excuse to say no. I asked her to go to a movie. With a discernable lack of enthusiasm, she agreed. After the movie I think we went for ice cream. There was no kiss goodnight. A few days later I called her for a second date and that time she was ready. She said no with an assortment of excuses. I felt downtrodden for about a week. Now, over 50 years later, those few days are filed in my brain under _Marty's nostalgia_ and it now brings a worldly smile. She is on Facebook. She is a grandmother in her upper 60s and works in a little craft shop. We are not Facebook friends. In fact, she may not remember my name.

    I'm 70 and have ONE piece of advice for old fashioned dating. If he calls you for a date, you have a nice dinner or whatever and then you wait for him to call you again? Rather call him THE NEXT DAY. Be 'in a hurry' as when at work... and THANK HIM FOR DINNER or whatever but DON'T talk future dates... just a quick dose of 'nice'. I can't believe how few young women know this trick. It can end in marriage.

      Dear madam, I'm sorry to report that women today aren't interested in being treated with respect. They laugh at men that treat them well and make fun of them with their female friends. They quickly put them in what is called in today's vernacular "the friend zone". The men that women today obsess over is guys that treat them like trash: cheat, lie, ignore them, dating dozens of other women at the same time, pressure them sexually right away, etc. Women today would rather share a man that's out of their league with several other women, than marry a good man who's at her level.

    My first date happened like this. When I was 15 in 1973 I was in a park and an extremely cute blonde haired blue eyed girl with a perfect figure was throwing a football with her brother and a friend. She was 14. At one point they threw the ball over by me and so I threw it back and then we started playing touch football. I tackled her a couple of times and she was really playful and seemed to flirt with me and I got her name. A few days later a friend of mine who was 16 told me he was going on a date and asked me if I could find a girl for a double date. I asked around and found out how to get in touch with the girl I met in the park and asked her about a double date. To my surprise she said yes. So my friend came over with his date driving his dad's pickup. One bench seat. I got in and we went and picked up my date and the four of us went to the skating rink. We skated for about an hour and then sat down. We talked for a while and I got close to her and then leaned over and started kissing her. We kissed for like 15 minutes straight but then she said "everyone is watching us" so we stopped.
    Later we went to the drive in and ordered a cherry lime sprite. Then we started kissing again for 10 more minutes and I asked her if she had fun and she said "well one thing I know for sure.... you are a really good kisser!" That was one of the funnest days of my life partly because the girl looked almost like Marilyn Monroe. She soon found a guy taller and more handsome than me but I was just happy for that one night. I just couldn't believe that all happened. Later my dad found out that I was kissing a girl at the skating rink in front of everyone. He wasn't mad though, he seemed proud. That was funny. Years later I met another blond haired blue eyed girl and we dated and got married when I was 21 and she was 18 in 1979. We are still married. Life is good but sometimes I really miss my teenage years.

I already knew her mom so when she asked where we were going, I said we were going to the Ice cream parlor for an Ice cream sundae and back to her house to play records. She approved ! (It was a 10 minute walk from her house). I remember how nervous I was, but I was so excited because now I thought I was becoming a teenager ! We went back to her house where she promptly threw up and I went home ! 😂😂😂 I couldn't believe what had happened. Anyway, we went to different junior high, so we never saw eachother again.

    I remember in the 60s my older sister, 16 or 17, would get ready for dates. She'd use dippity doo and put her hair in large curlers for most of the day to get ready for the evening. Her dresses were gorgeous with lots of lacy layers and twirl.

    My son is 15 and has a 17 year old girlfriend. They're been together for 2 years now. They met the last week of public school before we took him out to homeschool him. They were both skipping class, wandering around the playground thinking about what to do. Schools in Australia are locked with security fencing so kids can't get out (or bad people in). He saw her, she took his breath away, and he mustered up the courage to approach her. As soon as they started talking they got on swell and they both realised they had a lot of things in common. He tells me they have a favourite movie, "Elemental" and that the movie's promotion picture looks like the two of them so they've taken it to represent them.

    I had my first date when I was 16 ( wasn’t allowed to date until I was sophomore in high school) I went on a group date with some of my friends. We went for ice cream and went bowling. It was actually fun. Everyone was relaxed and having fun.
    I actually don’t see anything wrong with dating in a group or public setting

      Hi Alyssa, that is the way it was "in my days". We learned about "good manners" and "proper etiquette" at home, at school, at church, in 4H/Boy Scouts... and most of the people from my community that remained in our community (farms and ranches) married for life. It was a time of mutual respect - that is the way we (my late wife and I) raised our children. Peace be with you, Ciao, L

    Nick is a chad and has spotted the Tiffany table lamp on Kay’s desk. He knows she’s from good stock and more importantly, that Kay’s lamp will be worth a quarter million or more, in time. Nick buys the lamp for 5c, any interest from the mysterious ‘Kay’ and her ankle length skirt is a secondary bonus at this point.

    I wish I’d heard this advice sooner. When I first started dating all I knew was that you’re supposed to kiss and then start calling him your boyfriend. It made me so scared! I didn’t even know him! How am I supposed to know if I’m ok with kissing!
    But you aren’t supposed to know anything on a first or second date. You’re just supposed to do something meaningless with a stranger that results in normal conversation so they become less of a stranger. If I had dated that way I might have been less stressed and had more success sooner

    I attended my best friends first date since she was too nervous and paranoid of being alone with a guy. I drove with her to the place. They went to a 1950 restaurant. I sat at the booth and had a milkshake when this guy sat next to me. I found out he is with his best friend who has a first date but his car damaged. And he had to pick him up from the car repair since he was late. So we both were watching over and noticed how bad their date was. Let’s just say me and the guy are currently dating for a year and a half. The other two never talked to each other after that

    Back before I began going steady with my current girlfriend, I'd take a girl out to lunch for a first date.
    Thst way, we had the chance to learn about each other, something you couldn't do by going to a movie.
    My current girlfriend and I had our first date at a local July 4th parade. I walked her two and from where we saw the parade, giving us a chance to talk and get to know each other better.
    But my current girlfriend and I were very casual friends for many years before we began dating, so we did know each other a little.
    My current girlfriend and I have actually been together for 14 years and one way or another, we plan to spend the rest of our lives together.
    (By the way, she and I are both in our mid 60s; we started dating when we were in our early fifties).

      Why aren't you married?
      Instead you have sex, right?
      Having sex before marriage is a sin.
      Sex is between a husband and a wife to have children.
      Don't want children? Don't have sex.
      Want children? Get married first.
