If you're just going to be rude, at least learn to spell.
Sorry. Quit school in the 4th grade so I could go to work in the mills. Anyway, rude shmood, get over it. I am out to slay the shallow dragon here. Care to join me? Then check out the post by the guy who said sneakers on a first date makes it a last date. I could wade in that all the way up to my, O I don't know, toes?

I wore sneakers and a hoodie on my first date with my wife. It was a bit of an experiment 'cause normally I would wear a sport's coat and oxfords. She stuck around ayway. I'm not sure the particular type of sneaker had any effect on the outcome of the date though. But I'd never wear athletic kicks to anything but the gym.

I think the real question here is what to wear to a third date?

I’ll assume it wasn’t because she thought you were a silicon valley billionaire.

It’s gotta be hard work to be a gold digger these days. You never know who’s a tech billionaire. First time the Minecraft dude was in the shop I thought he was looking for the Fantasy Book Shop down the block. Good thing I’m nice to everyone. ?
