What To Prepare For Lunch On A Date

Please don't judge me or ridicule me as I am genuinely seeking advice.

I am single as is the lady that I am going to be having a date with. This lady and I met at a party 15 years ago and had a "kiss and a cuddle", but that was all that happened.

Our paths occasionally crossed in the ensuing years, but neither of us were ever in a position to do anything about actually "being together".

I've "held a candle" for her for years(!) and was absolutely bowled over when she contacted me on Facebook recently. We've been exchanging a few texts, e-mails and phone calls and she now wants to come and see me on Tuesday (we both happen to be off work on that day).

Anyway, she has said that she wants to come to see me at home, but only on the proviso that I make her lunch - and no, that's not a sexual term! :)

The problem I have is that I don't know what she likes and, despite me asking her, she simply says "anything, I don't mind".

I want to make a good impression, so does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could cook/buy, etc?

Go and have a wander around the food hall at Longacres, you will almost certainly find some bits and pieces to bring together a lovely lunch.

i would make a selection of smaller things - like tapas, so you can be sure she will get something she will like.

Hi All

I have news!!

I went down the pasta, sauce, salad and tiger bread route and she loved it! I also bought her a bunch of flowers and she cried (with joy!) when I gave them to her.

We got on really well! And I still fancy her like mad! There was a two-way attraction, but I was a gentleman and didn't "go for it" too much!

Then she dropped the fly in the ointment! She lives with a guy who treats her like dirt. She said that she knows that I would never treat her that way and that she is going to do summat about it, but it wont happen overnight.

I was gutted that she wasn't "totally available", but I've told her that I wont pressure her and that she has to make up her own mind.

We're gonna meet up again. And yes, I know I'll probably get hurt in the end, but I'm just enjoying the fact that someone makes my tummy flutter at the moment :o)
