Another First Date Thread
Here's some background: I went to high school with this girl and never really got to know her (she was in a very long relationship and they both were together constantly). I also go to the same college with her now and I recently started talking to her and we hit it off almost immediately. She is always very busy and has put off us hanging out plenty of times. Although I did go to her house for a movie a few weeks ago which didn't go so hot. She sat on the side of the couch all night so I didn't push anything.
Anyway, she asked me if I would take her out sometime next week. I agreed of course and suggested that we go to the movie theatre this time. She said that would be fine. Now for the questions: What type of movie should I see? A comedy like Knocked up? A horror like 1408? Should I put my arm around her? Just let her make any move? Thanks guys, I just don't want to blow this one.

Granted, the entire rest of the OP's story = friend zone completely, but is this particular one also bad because she wouldn't "ask" a guy she's interested in to take her out, but she would ask a friend to?

Re: Another First Date Thread
It sounds like you really like her, which is not good because she doesn't seem as into you. A movie is the perfect date for her because she won't talk to you while you're watching whatever (on your dime).
I would blow her off this time and see if she comes back to you again later. Then take her to a decent dinner and maybe a jazz club or something where you'll be forced to talk. The bottom line is that while you may think she's so hot, you might not think so when you realize she's either using you or just not that into you. She sounds pretentious (sp?).

Re: Another First Date Thread
Your shot was at her house watching a movie, which I am convinced is code for "let's make out on the couch as the credits roll". If you read her as disinterested, then it's over romantically. Next target, please.
But as to your suggestion of a movie at a theater for a first date, if someone suggested to me that as a first date, I go with her to a dark room, face away from my date, and sit in silence focused on something other than her for 2+ hours, I would openly mock them. Movies in theaters are AWFUL first dates.
