I have a challenge! Long story short: I'm going on a few dates with a friend of mine and could use a brainstorming session for things to do. The challenge is thus: can a man seduce a woman within 3 proper dates (no drugs/alcohol) without spending money to impress her? I think yes.

The rules:
1) I can't spend any money. This isn't entirely true, I can spend money on gas, or on meals I cook myself (as long as the meal isn't obviously expensive), or on anything else she won't immediately know I spent money on. So buying things for her on one of the dates is out, but I could probably get away with renting a movie or buying her flowers if I said I got the movie for myself or that I picked the flowers.

2) No drugs/alcohol. I can't get her inebriated and take a shortcut down her pants. I must impress her while she's sober.

3) The dates can't be boring. A lot of this is on me to keep conversation going, but any ideas that hurt conversation are gonna be bad ideas. So watching a Steven Segal movie is probably a bad idea.

The ammunition:
1) She moved to this state (Washington) around 3 or 4 months ago, so I think at least one of the dates should involve some sight-seeing and maybe a hike/picnic. Going to the beach one date and to the mountains the next is something I'm considering, but the weather forecasts for the next week are predicting rain, so this may not be viable.

2) She's a punk rock girl, so money shouldn't be necessary to impress her. However, getting too sappy and romantic might turn her off. This is a bit of a double-edged sword, and something I'm in a better position to feel out than you guys, but it's more info to help us with ideas on what to do.

3) She's from Texas, and is used to outdoorsy activities. She's told me several times that one of her favorite activities involves going out, finding a lake, and swimming in it. However, its still too cold to do that in Washington. Still... more info for the brainstorm.

4) I've already had sex with her on three separate occasions (yes, she's the sister's friend I blogged about a while ago), so I have something of an advantage going into this. For me to win this challenge, I have a feeling I just gotta avoid being boring or saying something messed up. So the pressure isn't that great for extreme ideas, just need some nice, no-money ideas.

If you have any specific questions about her, ask and I'll see if I can't answer.

The reward for victory:
I'll probably get a pretty nice steady girlfriend out of it. And you guys get to help me!

The consequence for failure:
Probably the same as the reward for victory, but I'll be marked by the shame of failure, and she'll cheat on me the first chance she gets or cut off my dick or something horrible.... ok, probably not, but I will have definitely failed.

I think this challenge is a really neat way to start a relationship... its definitely the most unique way I've ever entered into one. I don't wanna mess it up! Help me out TL.net! You're my only hope.

The ideas (will update as you guys come up with stuff):
1) To start it off: Flying kites at the beach, picnic, walk, watching sunset. (too romantic? too boring?)

Gogo, think of some dates on the cheap, ftw!

Wait... if you've already hooked up with her, you can probably just bring her over to watch TV and then have sex with her. I don't think you need to do anything super romantic/elaborate here.
Can't believe I'm still here playing this same game

O_o

There's no seduction here.

On the other hand, going hiking is a great idea!

You guys just want my dick cut off.

I'm sure I'll get laid, that's not the primary goal. The goal is to have some fun before the sex and without spending money. After these three dates I'll have plenty of time to spend money to have fun, or to sit around watching TV and having sex while southpark plays in the background.

Assuming you're in Seattle, bring her to the Experience Music Project. It has all sorts of rock memorabilia from Washington bands.


Admission's only fifteen bucks, and you can go to the Science Fiction museum as well, if you two are into that (You are posting on a Starcraft forum.)

Don't really get the point of this challenge, "seducing" a girl that you've had sex with...
too easy

They could sneak in.

Actually doing something "daring" like that might be a good idea too.

Also if she's fairly new to the area's music scene, maybe you could take her to a punk rock show? (at least here there are a bunch of rock shows that are free to get into. Not sure about the scene there. Also if you don't actually know of any good local bands...this probably won't work well either.)

Anyways, I have to agree, if you've already had sex with her then there's really no challenge of trying to get her into bed. All you're basically doing is forcing yourself to hold off until you personally feel like you deserve it.

Edit: Unless what you're trying to do is seduce her enough to the point that SHE'S the one forcing you to have sex.

It might be interesting if you took her out on three different types of dates.
IE, sight-seeing, punk-rock, and romantic, or something like that.

You could even let her know this is what you're doing, and it would make her curious/excited to wonder what was coming up next. It would also make each date memorable.

Seems like you know her well, which might give this a shot.
