Nope. Saturday at 11am. 8O


Hmmm. What date and time would that be in Poland. Time zones and all.

Pepe just put on a set of blinders on and go with it.

[Horse blinders are firm leather squares or plastic cups that attach to a horse's bridle or hood and prevent a horse from seeing behind and beside him. Horses that pull wagons and carriages wear blinkers to prevent them from becoming distracted or panicked by what they see behind the wagon.]

Great news Pepe!

Don't stress too much about the details, just rock up and have a coffee and a yack.
Wear something "nice" but simple.
A clean well ironed shirt, no holes in your clothing and shoes that aren't worn out.
Have a shower beforehand and if you choose to wear any fragrance don't overdo it.
Most important of all relax and enjoy your date's company!

Greetings from a fellow Aussie.

Very good advice.
Thank you. ;)

I have some cologne called "Simply irresistible".
It is in homage to her.
What do you think? 8O

If you think it suits you they certainly go for it!
Remember less is more, she can catch a hint of fragrance that lingers, you don't want the overpowering smell of the perfume counter at Myer.

Aah who could forget the smooth tones of the late Robert Palmer?

I absolutely love "She Makes My Day"

I don't know what to do.

Just don't be late and be nice. A short nice hug fo greating instead of a distant handshake may break the ice as long as she isn't totally afraid of you from the very first beginning.

You'll do it. She'll be nervous as well. Just treat her like a friend instead of an enemy. Be aware of empathy that causes her to feel a lot towards you as you will towards her. Don't be afraid of her recognizing your attraction towards her. It's a thing she totally wants if she likes you but otherwise she wouldn't even like a coffee with you. Care eye contact. Women have very beautiful eyes which tell you her feelings towards you as your eyes will tell her your feelings towards her as well. So don't be afraid to look in her eyes because as long as you like her and her beautiful eyes she'll like you as well. Just be nice and positive and good luck!
