FTS

Kelly: Here’s some tips for any first date:

1. It should never be longer than a drink because you don’t want to get stuck with anyone.

2. Never mention the price of ANYTHING – expensive or cheap. It makes you seem like an ass.

3. Ask questions and listen, but don’t talk about yourself unless you have to. Here’s a good first date question to ask: what’s your favorite childhood memory?

4. But don’t JUST listen, listen and respond.

Kelly: First off I said “hot,” not “handsome.” There is a big difference.

Rene: You don’t have to be handsome to be hot.

Marie: I mean there are some obvious turn offs, like bad breath and dirty teeth. I don’t care if you’re Brad Pitt, bad breath is going to turn me off.

Rene: There’s this thing called sexy-ugly. You can be ugly and sexy at the same time. Like Willem DaFoe. I think he’s an ugly, ugly man, but he’s also incredibly sexy. Well, maybe he’s not as ugly as he is unusual looking.

Rene: If you’re not a great looking guy, it doesn’t mean that you have no chance. Just try to find something that is good looking about yourself and bring it out. Like your eyes or your lips. Then wear clothes that really bring that out. And have some confidence in yourself, dammit.

Brenda: It’s not a theory, it’s the truth. Most of the guys I’ve dated have not been your traditionally handsome kind of guys. Hell, my husband is bald, for God’s sake. But he’s very sexy.

Lori: It’s all about the way a guy looks when he approaches you, not just how good looking he is. It’s all about how he acts, if he feels he has confidence.

Kelly: Shoes are really, really important.

Kelly: Good shoes. Attractive, casual dress shoes. You know what I mean.

Lori: Yeah, no boat shoes, no old, beat up shoes. And no sandals -- please.

Kelly: And no dirty shoes. They don’t have to be real shiny or anything, but they cannot be dirty. I cannot stress that enough – no dirty shoes.

Rene: Black shoes mean black socks. Enough said.

Brenda: And nice hands are very important.

Lori: Yeah, guys, stop biting your nails. But don’t get a manicure either, that’s no good.

Lori: Depends on the guy. I guess it’s okay as long as it’s light.

Rene: Yeah, you don’t want to smell the guy’s cologne unless you’re pressed up to him.

Marie: There’s nothing good about cologne.

Rene: You see, I disagree. I like cologne. But just not too much of it.

Marie: Be confident.

Kelly: Wear decent shoes.

Lori: Don’t be cheesy or a stalker.

Brenda: You don’t have to be beautiful.

Rene: Meanwhile, we’re just here waiting.
