Aug 10, 2012 — It’s kind of weird how it happens. Suddenly, you find your thoughts meandering to that certain someone instead of yourself all the time – you’re involuntarily smiling and there’s a certain glow about you. Call it what you will, Cloud 9, lust, an ungodly phenomenon; it’s a physical sensation unlike any other. And it hits you like a ton of bricks, you actually like this person!
And so you take the next best course of action…you try to snap out of it. The problem is you just can’t shake the thought of them and it’s never going away until you suck it up and actually ask them out on a date. Now, there are obviously a million date ideas out there: new bar, new restaurant, dinner and a movie, etc, etc. But if you really like this person and want to actually get to know them – and not just biblically – take them out during the day and show them what you’re really made of.
Here’s the thing, if you can stand the sheer presence of that special someone for an excursion during daylight hours, subsequent to that night of absolute drunken debauchery, then we’re pretty certain it’s a harbinger of many more happy ending returns (yes, biblically).
So start out with these tried and true recommendations to win your new crush over – that is assuming you actually strum up the courage to do so.
Get Touristy in Los Angeles: Rent a convertible. Drive up Beverly Glenn to Mulholland Drive and go east. Follow the winding paths and stop at each scenic overlook along the way. The good ones are the Universal City Overlook and the Hollywood Bowl Overlook. Impress them with your Hollywood history on the south side and how ‘you’ve heard’ every porn movie is shot in the valley on the north side. After you’ve soaked up the city, get off on the eastern side of Mulholland and head south on La Brea to Mashti Malone’s Ice Cream. Rose water ice cream is heaven sent.
