2 minute impressions-- Speed Dating

[Abdulmajid]

Ladies,

Assuming the man is passable on the looks front how can he impress you within two minutes on a speed date?

What should he wear?

Should he speak Mockney or posh?

Thank you.

Wardy I've told you I'm available! But if you insist...

Be funny and confident with a little sparkle in your eye. Compliment them (on their outfit?)

I prefer posh, but just be yourself. If they don't like the way you speak, they aren't for you anyway.

just like Bruce Willis when he looks at the girl behind the airport desk cos he wants to send a fax, every time.

Hi Abdul.... I've never done this *speed dating* thingie... sounds fun though ! I have always found that it's not really the looks or the voice that *do it* for me, but the mental dexterity and sense of fun. So long as he is clean and wearing reasonably normal clothing, I don't really care what he is wearing. Accents - they are just an indication of where one is from, not what one's brain is made of, so I'd not be too bothered by them. Intelligence, articulation, sensitivity, over 5'9" and a (slightly even) hairy chest are all I need ... lol ... control freaks need not apply though.

be natural, dont talk about money, show you are listening to her, compliment her.

dont be fake, she can probably sense it

[Abdulmajid]

Is it an unreasonably request if a male asks if the lady in question has children or not?

Also, does one mention spanking within the first two minutes?

[Abdulmajid]

Meglet, you would hate me in real life!!!!

Dotty, doesn't Bruce show his wedding ring in that scene? I still wear mine, so perhaps could pull it off!!!!

Juggs: I fit that description!!!!. Chest hair is the way forward

Cazz. A gentleman NEVER talks about money. But the fact I will be wearing a 2.5k watch, she will notice (JOKE)

[helliebobs]

Arrrrrrrrrrgh I would hate to do this but he should talk in his normal accent, NOT talk to my chest, smile, don't start with "So do you want to **** me then?", compliment me, tell me what sort of music he likes (very important) and not be wearing ANY gold jewellery.
Mentioning spanking in the first minute is fine.

[Abdulmajid]

I can honestly say I do not own any Gold jewellry!!!

In fact apart from some cuff links, a watch and very occassionally some silver dog tags, I don't think I have ever owned any!!!!

Don't you just hate it when men go on holiday and start wearing a load of ethnic tat like beads and cheap stones around their neck tied on with an Arabs bootlace?

[helliebobs]

Oooh I love cufflinks wardy :)

[cazzz1975]

I dont know why some tourists always get cornrows done, one girls hair fell out as a result

[Abdulmajid]

(looking up cornrows???? on google as we speak)

Yes, I agree innit.

[Jugglering]

LOL Abdul... next Q (I understand this is how it works on the speed dating thingy - rapid fire Questions over two minutes)....

If you passed a homeless lad every day on your way to work for a month (he was selling the Big Issue) and then he suddenly wasn't there any more on that pitch, would you wonder where he had gone or just think to yourself, oh good, that wee gob ***** has moved away to bother some other town/city.... ?

I know that I would be concerned for his welfare and hope that he had sorted his life out enough to get off the streets and into a decent job. You ?

[meglet]

Would I?I like strong men. In fact I have been told on many ocassions that the reason I'm still single is because I give such a vibe of not needing a man to look after me that it puts men off. I need a strong man to keep me on my toes!

Last ditch then, this is my photo from the other AB:

Be kind. ;-)

[helliebobs]

you have no nose!!! :(

[Abdulmajid]

Well from the image I can see, you appear attractive. A bit pale however.

But I have Victorian values regarding a ladies position in society, which perhaps is my downfall !!!!

[meglet]

So how do I smell?

(Don't answer that one please!)

[Miss Nomer]

How does she smell?

[Goodsoulette]

I liked Owen WIlson's ethnic tat in Zoolander. I also love a guy who will wear flip flops or jesus creepers. Really nice jeans, preferably with a wide bootcut, I find horizontal stripes attractive, stuff from white stuff, fat face or gap are safe shops to buy from for a guy.

He should speak naturally!

[Abdulmajid]

I am afraid it is tailor made or M&S for me.

White Stuff???

Fat Face???????????????

I have heard of Gap however.

[meglet]

Good grief. What position do you presume me to be in?
