| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 3/7/2008 3:26:27 PM | I had someone message me because i put "medical" in my profile she thought I was a Doctor !
When I put her right I didnt see her for the dust.
I felt she was seriously kidding herself, she niether had the looks nor the class to be a doctors wife !
I suppose at least she was honest !
Having said that I did used to be a consultant in system design and probably made as much money as a doctor ! | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 3/8/2008 1:22:15 PM | There are male gold diggers too. Rest assured when you do well for yourself as a woman there are men who like to see what they can get. Lucky for me I can read them like a book.  | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 3/8/2008 2:26:40 PM | you got a cheapskate and a psycho all in one - how did you do it??
I agree with u - u don't go to a stranger's house on a first date - or even a second if u aren't sure about him yet. you were smart to say no.
any guy who doesn't consider me worthy of a dinner date isn't going to get the time of day from me. I realise there are gold diggers out there but I also know there are cheapskates too and i am never going there again.
isn't it ironic that men want a hot woman on their arm but they want her to be low maintenance and of no $$ to themselves ever? pleeeeease. go pick up a hooker if that's how u feel. | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 4/10/2008 7:35:56 AM | | I would not invite someone to my home on date#1. I have though been asked about my income, finances and credit rating on a first date..I run from those women who ask about finances on a first date. Talking about who is paying...fine but not asking about personal finances. | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 6/16/2009 7:33:28 AM | The very best first date I ever had was a very cheap date. We grabbed lunch at McDonalds. Then, we walked around the Charlottesville walking mall all afternoon. We had a blast. We were in a public (i.e. SAFE) enviroment, and we were able to spend a lot of time talking to eachother. It was also interesting to see what he stopped to look at as opposed to what I stopped to look at.
A home date costs money - you have to buy food. Even if you buy hotdogs/mac and cheese - it still costs money. So, why not propose something like the above date? I'm all for hanging out on a first date. | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 6/16/2009 9:04:44 AM | | actually home dates are free because you you are cooking up food you allready have, infact much food in our homes gets thrown away anyway, especially us single people who cook for one. | |

I'll be sure to serve you the leftovers ;)
Home dates? Let's make it like BYOB, but BYOF (food)!!! lol
Like any good hostess with company coming over, there is some degree of preparation and expense involved. Knowing what the guy likes to eat is important so both can enjoy ie. is he vegetarian, any allergies? etc. Additionally TIME spent cooking the food could be a distraction and take away the focus of the actual purpose of the date.
In my experience and coming from a woman, cooking up dinner is rather costly and time consuming to be worthwhile on a first date. I would only do this if I know the person well and they can appreciate the time and effort. Cooking in the kitchen can be a very private matter on a first date...if you're not a good cook - you can come across as a klutz, and cleaning up is a pain. | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 6/16/2009 11:13:49 AM | Okay let's put this in very simple terms - I worked in a maximum security prison for the better part of 10 years, I was a probation officer for a year, and I go to court frequently for my current job. You people would be amazed at how many people I have recognized on dating sites as either being ex-convicts or wife beaters. I don't usually like to talk about my past with the Dept of Corruption...errr Corrections because people are either facinated or freaked out... But, ladies and guys - I could tell stories that would make your hair stand up on end. IMHO - you'd have to be crazy or stupid or both to invite someone you didn't actually know to your home for a first meeting/date. Yes, this risk to women is higher, but guys, there are some women out there who are mad, bad, and dangerous to know.
There are plenty of things you can do as first dates that don't cost much, but where you're in a safe enviroment. The first date I mentioned probably cost a grand total of $10, not including the cost of gas to get to/from Charlottesville. The fact that some of you can seem to think of anything besides a very pricey date at a restaurant and hanging out at someone's house just shows a lack of imagination. I, personally, like to get guys into a book store, so I can see which section he gravitates to first. You can tell a lot about a person by the books that they read. | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 6/16/2009 1:39:58 PM | | Actually if anything gold diggers love at home dates. If they are a gold digger, then an at home date at their place doesn't let them spend money. If they are a gold digger and it is your place, it gets you accustom to your place. | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 10/24/2009 6:46:20 AM | | to get rude with a total stranger like that spells trouble, and not only was he rude, he was nasty...and that is a dead givaway to someones personality...very bad...people can get upset, and get mad...but to attack someone whom you are trying to meet for the very first time?? think what this man would be like after you got to know him? I will say this...although i have never acted that way to someone I don't know, I have in the past been known to raise my voice and maybe , ok, I did, say things I later regretted...after loseing a love, I learned from that....you can never take the spoken word back, and it is always there.... | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 10/24/2009 11:35:54 AM | It's a trick some morons use to get sex. Or so they think.. that if they get you in his house, on his couch, they're more likely to get some. You refuse, they pull the golddigger card. You protest, they fly the imaginary trust fund, you tell them to stuff it, they pull out the oh-I-was-so-hurt card. Classic loser and wanna-be player. | |

Oh come on, you didn't really have to be so mean and tell him that you had an issue with this teeth did you? That's pretty low. Of course we're not in any way obligated to continue seeing someone we don't click with/aren't attracted to but I think it's heartless and nasty to come right and tell someone that you have an issue with their looks; why not just say something general like "I didn't feel a connection, good luck" and leave it at that? Sheesh. For dogs, the final thing is you have no way not to be mean.  | |

| Weeding out golddiggers with a home-date? WTF? Posted: 10/24/2009 2:42:37 PM | So I was watching some TV $$$ dating show and this Las Vegas magician flies this girl out from LA. He takes her by his condo (used for storage), then he takes her to his nightly magic show performance, after they go to a mid priced restuarant. They're hitting it off and having fun. He brings her back to his real house, which is a mansion to have drinks.
He said he does this to weed out the gold diggers. He wants to take her out again.
She is offended and doesn't want to see him again because he didn't trust her from the beginning. She feels like she was played.
The host of the show agrees that this was very immature behavior on his part and she had warned him about doing this before hand. I think that most women would agree. | |
