Dear Andre,
Ok, so I have a first date tomorrow night, and I'm not sure what to wear. We're going to a fun, hip sushi place in the Marina district. Do I go for the jeans and a cute top, or should I wear a skirt? Advice?????


Dear Shellbell...
Ah, first dates are always tough. Fun and hip is good, it takes away the stress of being underdressed for a stiff/stuffy restaurant, and gives you the freedom to bust out some fun jeans and tops. It all depends on where you met this guy too. If you dress up for work, and you see him at work quite often, you might want to dress down, and wear jeans and a vintage T-shirt, or the cute top you suggested. A skirt could work as well, as long as its not too dressy. Are you comfortable with your legs at this time of year? (Tan and Tone?) If he specified a fun and hip restaurant, I think that gives you a lot of leeway, but I would take the fun/cute route with some hip flare. Good luck!!

Andre,
Here is the situation. I have been dating this guy for a few weeks and everything has been amazing. We have spent everyday together. The other night we stopped at a bar before heading home from a get together with his friends and well I got drunk. So drunk I blacked out and started talking about nothing. This all took place in the matter of 2 hours. I know better than to drink like that but I don't know what happened. Now he tells me that he does not want to be with someone who can do that. He is afraid of the future. How can I prove to him it will never happen again. Or any advice please. Thanks


Well thats a tough spot you're in...The good thing is that you had a few weeks prior to the "incident" that gave you a more legit rep, (hopefully of someone who doesn't get drunk and babble frequently!). If this guy is quality, he should understand that it was an isolated incident, as long as you apologize and explain with a level head, WITHOUT getting defensive. And then my adive would be to lay off the booze for a while when you go out, to show him that you don't need it to have a good time! This should give him assurance that you are not a lush!

Hi Andre!
I have a delimma maybe you can help... I really like it when my boyfriend spends an excess amount of money on me because it shows that he cares. It's not like I expect it every DAY! just Friday and Saturday night. NOW He's complaining about not having enough money to take me out and it's really starting to annoy me! Should I keep him or dump him? Luvs.


Well, from my experience girls LOVE to be taken out and lavished upon, some more than others. If the main reason you want to dump him is because he is not taking you out anymore, and doesn't want to spend money on you, that might be a bit hasty. He could be strapped for cash right now, whatever his circumstances. If you see a decline in his giving whether its attention, affection, orother areas (as well as how much he spends on you), then it might be time to have a talk, or give him the boot! If he really shows you that he cares for you in other ways, then you might want to keep him around and learn how to acccept his affection from means other than just how much money he spends!
