Glad things went well for ya! My "baby girl" is 12, so my time is comming! So far, she only has interest in sledding, softball, homework & texting! Iam sure "our" first date will be interesting to say the least! I was thinking on that night, I just may be fine tuning the chain saw!!

It is never easy, but if he is a good guys, it will get better. My daughter married a good guy and a sledder. So now we ride together all the time. But you will always be nervous when they leave the house.

Bummer dude! It is all white here! :)

worked on the sled all day today, it didn't help any. still no snow :( lol i loosened the track, repacked a few bogie bearings, moved a bogey wheel, totally redid my handlebars (again) put on a few stickers, took my ski's off and cleaned em and i also took off the spindles and whatnot and i went to put it back on, i almost effed up one of the bushings! glad i got it back together all good. tomorrow i'm gonna fill up a can halfway with some better gas. my sled is empty, then i'll take it for a small small spin in the grass and into the shed she goes instead of the trailer, they're talking for maybe some snow thurs/fri?

was he driving a van/suv or a nice calming smart car

If he's lucky the guy drives a pickup with a 5 speed and mud tires on it (that would hopefully mean he's a good old country boy)... right now it's too cold outside to try anything fresh in the back and nobody likes taking a shifter to the side. Trust me. haha

Skylar, that is too funny.

I remember when my older sister went on her first date. My dad and I walk over to the guy getting out of the car. My sister was coming out of the house and my dad tells me to go and get a baseball bat. So of course I ran to get it and as I am running back my sister is already yelling at my dad. All my dad said was have her home by 10 and have a good time. The guy said no problem. She was home by 9 and no 2nd date, lmao.

Useful info

There is a more detailed list out there somewhere, but I'm not finding it at the moment.
Here are the 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter.
1. Use your hands on my daughter and you'll lose them after.
2. You make her cry, I make you cry.
3. Safe sex is a myth. Anything you try will be hazardous to your health.
4. Bring her home late, there's no next date.
5. If you pull into my driveway and honk, you better be dropping off a package because you're sure not picking anything up.
6. No complaining while you're waiting for her. If you're bored, change my oil.
7. If your pants hang off your hips, I'll gladly secure them with my staple gun.
8. Dates must be in crowded public places. You want romance? Read a book.

Then, there's the advice from Da Yoopers. Wait till it's just you and the date in the room. Let out a really loud fart. If the guy laughs, he's cool. If he kinda scrunches his nose up, then he's a wimp. Get rid of him!

I love how parents always think their daughters are perfect little angles and all guys are the seed of Satan.

Your daughters are just as troublesome as the guys coming to pick them up!
 
I'm not sure if this is just an isolated coincidental observation. But it seems like the guys that I would have considered to be a loving father's worst nightmare, you know, the "Wienie Warrior", Whack'em and Stack'em, "Carve Another Notch in the Bedpost" type are the same guys that ultimately ended up with the family full of daughter's. Could this be god's funny way of returning the favor?

Keep this in mind, men make up exactly 50% of the total population of all parents (At least genetically speaking). When determining the worthiness of the daughter's date this 50% draws upon their own unique experiences and observation, which in most cases frightens the living &%# out of them, hence the overwhelming belief that their daughter's date is a cunning, smooth talking, charm the pants right off of them, navigator who's is, as you're shaking his hand and being reassured they'll be home at 10:00 pm sharp, charting course for the shortest distance between 1st base and home.

This why I have no kids! So this tread cracks me up! My worst nightmare would be to have a daughter date someone like me (when I was young)

well if there is going to be a second date its time to buy a gun at scheels and start cleaning it when he is there, but if the boy has a pick-up and camo, ten to one he will show ya a faster way to clean it
