I just had lunch with a very old friend of mine. I reserved the entire dinner theatre, had flowers on the table, had light music playing, stem glasses, the whole bit. Then we ate peanut butter and honey sandwiches and moose tracks ice cream, and drank pina colada SoBe. Gave her the flowers, and a small tranparent glass ornament in the shape of Belle and Beast dancing. Best time I've had in a good while, and she says that it helped make a stressful week a lot better. And I got a hug. So for those of you who questioned my judgement in food in the previous thread...
Nyah!

-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Considering that Omega isn't very old, how long could this 'old friend' have been a friend???
Not even a little peck on the cheek??? Man, how depressing....

Just the fact that Omega put the thought and effort into something as simple as a lunch makes him awesome to me.
If some man would come into my life willing to do what Omega did, I'd probably marry him that very day.....
Don't tease him, guys... he put more heart and thought into this than most guys will put into an entire relationship. And he didn't even expect anything in return. Any girl should be so lucky...............

Come on, guys. What Omega did is actually very romantic, and it's along the lines of something I would do. I'm glad to see that it works (along with my new philosophy of winning a woman's heart through her stomach). And don't going pooh-poohing hugs. It's the only form of intimate touching some of us (okay, I) can get.
Congrats, Omega, and good job.

But I thought this was just a friend? Why would he need a romantic dinner for just a friend? Or is this a friend with benefits kind of thing, Omega?

Let's all leave Omega alone, he gets enough shit from us over his political views and the odd stupid statement, he doesn't need us railing on his attempts to make lunch.

Thirteen years old enough?
Not even a little peck on the cheek?
Hey, I'll settle for the hug. How she chooses to display affection is, to a good degree, a function of her personality.
But I thought this was just a friend? Why would he need a romantic dinner for just a friend?
Not intended to be romantic, AS SUCH. Just a fun time, nice, relaxing, good food. And a show of my affection for her.
Which is not to say that I'd complain if it WAS romantic. Worse things could happen to me.
