Dates with girls vs. dates with guys

[wanderlust_1982]

Hi guys, so I recently decided to do something about my suspicions that I'm bisexual, and am going on my first date with a girl soon. (wee!)

Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone on here has experience where they interact differently on a date with a woman, compared to a date with a man. For example, do you find you act differently? Talk about different things or in different ways? Flirt differently?

Or is this a dumb question?

I've dated women and men it's pretty much exactly the same.

Ok..this may just be me but I do see a difference.

I don't enter into meeting guys as "dating" and that may colour my perspective. I have developed what I prefer to see as "friends with benefit" or intimate friendships with men. We did do social things but the whole sex aspect was under there and dealt with and so it may not be what you are looking for. Dating a woman tends to be a bit more formal as opposed to guys. The whole who pays for what and when aspect is a little more formal dating a woman than a man. There is more expectation of traditional guy pays for the "stuff" on a date but that may vary with women these days as well. It probably really depends on the expectations between two men as the "social rules" are not really there.

Just my opinion, but when you venture into dating men, one crosses a line that the question of being bisexual is no longer a question.

I got no idea what two women would do on a date. But in my experience it's not quite the same dating males and females. When on a date with a bloke, you have to be discreet in my area. You can't just canoodle in a bar or resteraunts (If you do resteraunts.lol). Also with women, you are not guaranteed to end the night in bed together. Not ending up in bed with a woman is kinda charming and half expected. Not ending up in bed with a bloke is .........never experienced that.:rolleyes:
But the BS is much the same. Men can sit there lying through their teeth about how they've only been with a few men and how they are not sexualy motivated to date you, as good as any woman.lol

I'd just go date her and see how it goes without any preconcieved ideas about what 'should' happen. Get to know her, and try to be as honest as you can, even if you get judged for it like I do.lol (By raving hypocrytes I must add btw!)

Of course dating men and women are different.. from what is talked about to how it is approached... even how sex is discussed is usually very different... there is an entirely different feel and the atmosphere between man woman and woman woman is completely different.. generally between two women there is less nervous stupidity although stupidity can be replaced with a nervous sllliness.

That society is more open to all women relationships than all male is true but many, even most women are more reticent when it comes to outward displays of affection (like snogging and cuddling in public) when on dates with their own gender... this is even more the case between two dating men...it is getting better but opposite gender dating allows far more open, often ostentatious displays of public canoodling than many women and certainly men are prepared to undertake in public on same gender dates unless the date takes place within the confines of a lgbt club or pub or event..

There is also generally less octopus behaviour between two women although some more butch women do display more masculine traits in this regard. But each date, whether it be between man and woman, two women is different or 2 men is different.. each date takes its own form depending on the nature and character of each person... just as each subsequent date between the same two people should take a different form.. if not.. it sounds bloody boring to me..
