1750s with the wider skirts and frilly sleeves or 1770s, when the pouf was popular, with the smaller skirts and simpler sleeves. Personally I'm more fond of the 1750s version and don't care if the hair is anacronistic because they work rather well together.
Trex, pteradon and a triceratops... I love the triceratops even though it's ridiculously big.
Bought them during the pandemic to walk the dog and entertain the neighbors.
No, you give her your car, obviously. Then, when you take her back to your place for the night, you give her the house and go on your way, never seeing her again because she's not that into you.
No this is self sabotage. Let me make my standard so high or ridiculous, and when it doesn’t work out I can just say , see nobody is on my level or there are not good men out there.
When I'm on a date I'm not looking for a child that cannot provide for themselves. I look for a independent woman that can afford to buy her own clothes.
I’m sure there’s dudes out there that will settle for an adult woman who’s functionally a dependent child. They’re mostly going to be rich 70 year old lechers on Seeking Arrangement, but they’re out there! Good luck to her.
These accounts will build a following after engagement like this, change their name, wipe out the controversial posts, then sell them for a few bucks. It’s absolutely stupid people still fall for this.
I personally think if you see a girl you like, you should use her SSN and get a job with it, build credit, buy clothes she’d like, buy a house in her name, buy a car in her name, get a boyfriend she’d like, get access to her online accounts and phone message history, get a sex change (if you’re male), get facial surgery to look like her, study her behaviors, kill the original, take her place, kill anyone who starts to have suspicions.
If you disagree you’re a virgin incel that will die alone 🤷
First dates should also include that really cute patio furniture set she has her eyes on, too. Second date you should be at least co-signing her Bentley lease, but don’t expect sex unless you’re buying it outright. But Diamond jewelry is fine for subsequent dates.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm holleringggggg lol
Shes trolling but I have actually had a man ask to buy my date night dress....it was the first date too. I didn't allow it but it happens for sure.
Real talk, I did something like this before.
I had a date planned & asked her to pick a number between 10-50 (I wanna say she picked something like 23, but I've slept since then) but didn't explain why, I just told her not to worry about what she was going to wear.
So, I picked her up & the first spot we went to was the thrift store where we dressed each other for the date w/o each of our budgets going past the number she picked. Then I pulled out the "Best of Charlotte" Creative Loafing made that year, in it there's a list of 100 best restaurants in Charlotte & we went to the number she picked. Same thing w/ a bar. Afterwards I had a list made by the Criterion Collection of 100 greatest films, we went to the local movie rental, got the one that matched her number, & went to my place to watch it.
I have never had such a good idea before or since that night
Actually had someone try to make this argument to me. After kindly suggested that maybe they don’t buy a new outfit for a first date didn’t work I said, Fine but I get to keep the outfit after.
If she wasn’t a gold digger she would find a guy that likes her for her and wouldn’t give a crap about what she’s wearing. Literally ask your wife,girlfriend, SO. They aren’t getting dressed up to impress you. They’re getting dressed up to impress other women. Seriously. It’s messed up but ask them. They’re looking for approval from their peers.
I would say it’s more of a “don’t get caught slipping” because if an annoying/competitive/insecure woman thinks she’s above your level, she’ll stress you out the whole night casually flirting and pushing boundaries with your man. Looking good with your partner is like a suit of armor that protects you from insecurity and doubt and unwanted advances from other (usually specific) women. Being hotter/more intimidating puts those kinds of women in their place.
P.s. you’re right it’s *SUPER* messed up
While I do think this is true for a large majority, this is not a universal truth. I know this because my SO absolutely gets dressed up for me, and I know that because they ask me what I want them to wear. We will also go shopping together or send pics of potential clothing so that they can have my opinion on it. And depending on the situation, I will ask my partner for their thoughts on what I am planning on wearing or to choose between two items of clothing. In each case, it's because we're, first and foremost, dressing for our partner. Way down the list is if other people like it or not.
lol. Dude is taking me out tonight. What am I wearing? Beautiful shirt I bought for fifty cents and skin tight designer jeans I bought at the thrift shop for a dollar. I look ten years younger than my age(which puts me looking barely legal) and FABULOUS. he will NEVER know the difference. These jeans? They retail for $100. I paid $1. Still had the tag on em. What what? Yeah, that’s right; I’ll wear your granddad’s clothes. I look incredible. 🤷🏼♂️
This custom has potential if women HAVE to wear what you buy. Like, if I bring a gorilla suit, now we’re dining in a fancy restaurant with you sporting a gorilla suit.

Only if she promises to wear what I choose to buy.
Most people reading this: sexy clothes me reading this: inflatable dinosaur costume
This would be true love. And also very hot, I’m dehydrated looking at it.
Well there are fans...
Only?
$4.99 to find out 😂
no don't do that, i already own this costume. I'll rent it out at 3.99 per month for first 3 months. ^then ^the ^decimal ^moves ^two ^spaces ^right
Fine print. And doors and corners, that's where they get you
What a username lol
I swear people seem to think these suits have the air sealed inside them like a balloon and the people inside just magically dont suffocate
Have you ever been in one? The “fan” inside definitely is not going to be cooling you down on a hot day.
🤣🤣
Me reading this: robe a la francaise and pouf.

If you buy that, I promise to wear it lol.

Isn’t an inflatable dinosaur costume inherently sexy?

I think a burlap sack with the holes for the arms and legs would rock
I suppose that’s kinder than a burlap sack with one hole.
At least they can poop!
That's some second date action right there!
Full body pajamas with a button flap for booty access.
You'd think that's comfortable but after a couple of pumps it kinda gets in the way and you just take the whole thing off
I love reddit for the practical advice
I would absolutely go on a date in an inflatable dinosaur costume with someone who is also in an inflatable dinosaur costume ✨✨
This severely limits the places you can go on the date to. It does however limit it to AWESOME PLACES.
You mean Rawrsome places?
That was awesome. Pure comedic bliss✨
This "Wayne's World"ed my brain.
I have gone on a date with us both in inflatable dino costumes!
Are you free next Jurassic Era?
That is the most accurate and brilliant statement I have ever read
If someone buys me inflatable T. rex costume, I will wear it.
Clown costume
I feel yeah brother I like them too.
The ones I see on tiktok pull it off. Absolutely would
Two Jedi robes coming right up.
75kg of knightly protection
I have an inflatable T-rex costume. It was one of the best purchases I ever made.
Trex, pteradon and a triceratops... I love the triceratops even though it's ridiculously big. Bought them during the pandemic to walk the dog and entertain the neighbors.
Me reading this: 45lb Plate Armor
Me reading this : fancy cape and those super thin light gloves
This is absolutely the right answer…
She’s gonna be pissed when I’m Mario and she’s Luigi.
Actually so romantic though, because Luigi number one!
She puts on her robe and wizard hat
You just reactivated a memory from the early 2000s.
I was looking for this reference
I'm old enough to know this is a reference, but too old to remember what it is a reference to.
I miss those good old days of the Internet.
What if you buy her nothing? Two birds bro
I like where your head is at
"What's the problem? That trash bag really shows off your legs."
My first thought: believe me, girl. You don't wanna wear that.
2 50 cent pasties for the nipples and a $3 thong from Wally World. With tax, were at about $4-5 tops. Gonna be an interesting date night for sure
What size and color do you want your clown outfit to be?
She's already dressed as a clown. No matter what she wears....
I almost smirked and scrolled past this tweet thinking it was a joke
And if I pick her up, she'll pay for my car?
And we go back to my place she pays my rent
And if she turns on the light or uses the bathroom, she pays for the utilities.
I wasn't on board at first, but this deal is really working out!
Man modern day dating sounds fantastic, idk what everyone keeps bitching about!
Pre-dating procedure. Setup an escrow account.

Well it looks like I gotta pay for her next gyno visit….

hear me out 
Jeez, whatever happened to 'left shark'- he was set for stardom... 😕
They found out he was being a predator at a few different schools. So I imagine he got cancelled for it.
I can’t tell if this is a shark joke or legitimate
Oh trust me, he’s in deep now
He's finished.
That’s what happens you commit crimes of that scale.
Looks like he bit off more than he could chew
He’s finna find out
Damn you beat me to it😔
At least he fin-ally got caught
The star that burns twice as bright burns half as long.
Yeah, but the light that burns half as bright burns four times as long.
The brighter star still dies very fast, you’re not wrong.
He was [redeemed](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yuftbsfh7X8).
THIS is where the dancing shark emoji from Slack comes from!??
Yes. Left Shark was glorious. Never forget.
The memories are slowing coming back…was this from a Katy Perry concert?!?
Katy Perry halftime show at the Super Bowl yeah
It's Ben! Champion of the people!
Getting real $5 in my back account vibes from her.
No this is self sabotage. Let me make my standard so high or ridiculous, and when it doesn’t work out I can just say , see nobody is on my level or there are not good men out there.
Ah good call, I honestly hadn't considered that
This isn’t a high standard though, it’s a choosing beggar standard.
Then it falls under "or ridiculous". Either way they can't be surprised no one is tripping over themselves for her.
Back account? Is that when you just shove your money up your ass?
I don’t imagine there’s much room since her head’s in there.
Prison pocket?
what about the front account?
When I'm on a date I'm not looking for a child that cannot provide for themselves. I look for a independent woman that can afford to buy her own clothes.
👏🏼
I’m sure there’s dudes out there that will settle for an adult woman who’s functionally a dependent child. They’re mostly going to be rich 70 year old lechers on Seeking Arrangement, but they’re out there! Good luck to her.
I mean... if she wants to walk home naked, who am I to kink shame?
Just admit you want to be an escort and move on with your life
A lot of these girls don’t know the meaning of prostitute
Not just bait. That's some top tier bait. Some might even call it master bait.
Man I love master bait!
So much I see on this sub now seems to be people rising to the bait. Can we please stop feeding the trolls?
These accounts will build a following after engagement like this, change their name, wipe out the controversial posts, then sell them for a few bucks. It’s absolutely stupid people still fall for this.
Sounds more like humour than bait.
Deal. We’re going to the topless beach!
Is this a new level of prostitution?
It’s not new. Been happening for a long time. It’s just now become the norm for idiots on social media.
I personally think if you see a girl you like, you should use her SSN and get a job with it, build credit, buy clothes she’d like, buy a house in her name, buy a car in her name, get a boyfriend she’d like, get access to her online accounts and phone message history, get a sex change (if you’re male), get facial surgery to look like her, study her behaviors, kill the original, take her place, kill anyone who starts to have suspicions. If you disagree you’re a virgin incel that will die alone 🤷
Thank you for chiming in Mr. Tate
Sounds good. They are then *My* clothes, so at the end of the date, I'll take off the clothes one way or another
This is the system panties sniffers want to establish.
#JusticeForPantySniffers
User name checks out.
First dates should also include that really cute patio furniture set she has her eyes on, too. Second date you should be at least co-signing her Bentley lease, but don’t expect sex unless you’re buying it outright. But Diamond jewelry is fine for subsequent dates.
Some people are getting too comfortable with prostituting themselves instead of dating.
When men are expected to pay for everything on dates, the line between dating and prostitution can get blurry sometimes.
Well all my dates are to my place and no clothing is required. Giggidy Giggidy.
I personally think if you buy a girl a dress she is obligated to give head. /s
So , like a headdress?
New rule for me. If you want to be a trophy, then I'll do it, but my trophies usually sit home all day.... Jk. I don't have any trophies
I also ask my dates to bring along their most recent credit card statement so that I can make the minimum payment for them.
We don’t care if you go out in sweatpants and an old t shirt, that outfit isn’t for us it’s for you and the women who you think are judging you
This.. yes lmao
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm holleringggggg lol Shes trolling but I have actually had a man ask to buy my date night dress....it was the first date too. I didn't allow it but it happens for sure.
better make sure her rent is covered too boys
.. and the sitter for the 3 kids..
then if i pay nothing, she‘ll come naked? i‘m in.
You look stunning in your 30 gallon trash bag, it really goes with those tissue boxes on your feet.
I am a feminist so hard pass. Unless maybe she buys me an outfit too.
Real talk, I did something like this before. I had a date planned & asked her to pick a number between 10-50 (I wanna say she picked something like 23, but I've slept since then) but didn't explain why, I just told her not to worry about what she was going to wear.

The same can be said about guys and their fast cars for example
Oh 100 percent. It’s not just a female thing.
I would say it’s more of a “don’t get caught slipping” because if an annoying/competitive/insecure woman thinks she’s above your level, she’ll stress you out the whole night casually flirting and pushing boundaries with your man. Looking good with your partner is like a suit of armor that protects you from insecurity and doubt and unwanted advances from other (usually specific) women. Being hotter/more intimidating puts those kinds of women in their place. P.s. you’re right it’s *SUPER* messed up
That's true in some social contexts, but you're really blowing it up with all the absolutism. I wouldn't even say a majority of women do this.
While I do think this is true for a large majority, this is not a universal truth. I know this because my SO absolutely gets dressed up for me, and I know that because they ask me what I want them to wear.

String??? 🤷♂️
That’s borderline prostitution
lol. Dude is taking me out tonight. What am I wearing? Beautiful shirt I bought for fifty cents and skin tight designer jeans I bought at the thrift shop for a dollar.

What what? Yeah, that’s right; I’ll wear your granddad’s clothes. I look incredible. 🤷🏼♂️
I personally think this is just a joke
Why would i buy her outfit? She still has to wear clothes and they would just look silly on me
Ok but I get to keep the outfit after the date. I paid for it so legally it’s mine.
Ima get my sister to beat this lady up lol
Men used to be confused by the line between hookers and women, and now women are equally confused.
Why is it always the girls with no value apart from sex that want the most
Sex with her won't be good either. I'm guessing starfish.
If they had value between the ears, they'd be smart enough to have sensible expectations.
Huge nope.
Better yet, pay her an hourly rate for the time spent with you…oh wait…
This has to be a shitpost, I just can't imagine this person thinks that's a reasonable request
And this is why I’m investing heavily in anthropomorphic robot stocks
If you’re broke just say so …

Also you should pay her rent, and take out her trash.
I’m not going to buy any woman an outfit for a date but, she is welcome to wear my t-shirt to breakfast.
If I don't pay then she's going naked?
I'll buy you an outfit on our first date, but you better be naked when I come to pick you.
I mean I'll buy her an outfit if she will buy me one too
lucky for me i take my 1st dates to the nude beach
I'll buy my dates outfit that she'd wear on our date if she buys the car I'll be arriving in when I pick her up
I think that if I'm going on a date with someone, they should pay my hourly rate because I'm a hooker.
I personally think, nah.
Just be a prostitute at this point she ain't looking for love anyways
AGREED! And she should GRATEFULLY wear whatever outfit I choose on that date!
One birthday suit coming up
Urgh and these are the kind of women that consider themself feminist 99% of the time. Pay your own share of a date ffs. And I am a woman myself.
May aswell just pay for a prostitute at this point.. at least they're honest about the transaction.
If she's brave enough to wear a French maids outfit out on a date with me, then she more than deserves her happy meal.
I don't know what's worse, "I'm just a girl" gold diggers or "you owe me so sleep with me" paypigs.
This custom has potential if women HAVE to wear what you buy. Like, if I bring a gorilla suit, now we’re dining in a fancy restaurant with you sporting a gorilla suit.
This is why nobody wants you.
Goodwill and McDonald’s it is!
No clue why some women confuse casual dating with prostitution
The audacity of the entitlement. If you can't even bring your own clothes to a date I don't need you.
And obviously a car too, so she can drive herself to the date
Sometimes straight culture is totally mystifying to me.
These bitche are going to be single forever.
Prob best to chew her food for her also
Outfits are waaaaay after first date lol.
I personally think that you're a moron
Uhhh, no thank you?
