With all the concern "out there" about not spending money on dates for women who are not girlfriend material, and who pays, and what sort of obligation is involved if one does and the other doesn't, and what is and isn't a date, and when sex should or shouldn't be introduced, and what it means when you have sex with someone you don't have a signed contract with...

...well, it makes me tired, if you want to know the truth. I like to ponder things, but these are not things worthy of my pondering. I prefer to ponder why the book I always feel like reading in bed is off in the kitchen or how I managed to pack two mis-matched left shoes on a recent trip, or what the perfect angle to velocity is when chasing raccoons with my super-soaker.

So, I propose a compromise. Dessert. It's less expensive and time-consuming than a dinner. It's still decadent enough to be a treat. True, it will make you fat if you eat too much of it but I'm not going to sleep with you anyway (and you are probably too busy trying not to be taken advantage of to sleep with me) so why not indulge? It's the perfect solution for same-sex outings to keep the opposite-gender bashing to a minimum and provides a wide range of sexual innuendo for opposite-gender meetings.

Dessert. The Compromise that might save dating.

Discuss.

Your attention to detail is wicked. Would you like to share some cheesecake?

I would never turn down some good conversation and Key Lime Pie..
(maybe a little Marie Brizard in my coffee, too.)

Reminds me of a potential make-or-break moment I had on my very first "first date" with an eH match. Nothing flirty going on, but a nice, pleasant date. I was sooooo nervous I had no mojo at all.

We were having cheescake for dessert. She jokingly says to me "Oh, this is so going straight to my hips."

I meant to say "Not if I eat it for you."

I actually said "Not if I eat it off you."

I froze. Honest slip up. Sweaty armpits. I think carp, how do I recover? Uh-oh...

She shoots back with "Save yours for later, then."

The story doesn't have a happy ending, unfortunately. We had two dates and while arranging the third ...

I hung up the phone on her after she started yelling at me how she hated dating and men and her mom and sister forced her to go on eH after being single for 8 years and she had put on 5 lbs eating at restaurants in the previous month.

So, no, I never ate cheescake off her.

I guess my story doesn't support the dessert will save dating premise. Sorry, LBMM!

I've got better dessert stories but those belong in LTAS.
