OP,

Flowers are prob a little too much. Send her a simple piece of jewelry. NOT a ring, that is too much. But something like a simple tennis bracelet or necklace. Go with silver or platinum instead of gold. One thing that might be cool is if you get her a pendant but instead of putting a picture of you in it, put a picture of a question mark with some text like "you and me" above it.

Although El D is undoubtedly smoother than I when it comes to women, I can't help but think that giving jewelry to a woman days before a first date would seem incredibly creepy.

The one thing I find hilarious about this thread is that no one really knows who is leveling who.

Clearly this is the perfect time for a singing telegram, it's what they were [censored] made for. You people and you're [censored] text messages.

WTF? Singing telegrams are awesome for ANY occasion. I send them to people when a family member dies.

Cappy,

"Coach bags are nice gifts too."

That is a pretty money idea. Maybe a small clutch/purse for a first date present?

I like a text, a call is too far as is flowers without a first date. Text is just right.

Agreed.

He's already taking her to dinner at Taco Bell tomorrow night. No way he should treat twice at the Bell before she puts out. It just sets a very bad precedent.

That's right he'll look like an IDIOT! Maybe Chuckee'Cheeses but it sounds like she might be getting up their in age though so I'd play it safe and flowers, coach bag, singing telegram and then Mcdonalds for dinner.

Ok so basically I just met this girl on Friday. I called her today to ask her out this week. She seems really interested and we are going to go out to dinner on Tuesday. Yet while I was talking to her tonight, she mentioned that it was her birthday tomorrow. I said something along the lines of "have a good birthday tomorrow" tonight when I was talking to her. But should I send a text message or call her tomorrow too? Or should I just leave it be and pick her up like planned on Tuesday?

You forgot the obvious...

DO NOTHING!

You've already wished her a happy birthday, you've known her for less than 4 hours (I'm guessing) so why do you owe her anything besides the comment you've already made in passing.

Don't come off as try-hard or needy and you'll be fine. You'll have plenty of time to ask her about her birthday on your date.
