I am new around here, so I really don't know other events to suggest. If I were to counter offer something besides a bar, it would take me a few minutes to come up with something. That would be kinda "weird".2) Why would doing something other than going to a bar be "weird"?
3) If I need to put my gun in the trunk why would I clear it? It's not going to go off by itself is it?
Well, I have so many things that scare girls off already... I guess I mean to say that girls look for reasons not to date me. No, I am not nerdy with girls. An 8 year age difference was a huge deal for one girl who was REALLY into me after 2 dates. One of the last girls was turned off because I did NOT try to get her into bed on the first date!!!! She told me that!Why not be up front in the first place ? Tell your date you are a gun nut ,and ask if she minds ,then go from there .........
I think you have some valid points here. I gave my last pepper spray to a girl, so I have to order some more.In the situatuion you describe, I would probably just carry some pepper spray when I was on dates or something similar. I don't think any woman is put off by pepper spray. A lot of women have some.
I think that most women would consider it a little odd if you had a gun on your person during an early (one of the first few) date. Carrying a gun with you isn't one of the first things to talk about when you aren't even sure if you really like somebody yet. If I went out with a woman that I hardly knew, I'd have thoughts of why she had the gun on the date.
I also think that most women would want to end the date with some guy that could be crazy (for all they know) and has a gun with him. That's even if they wouldn't mind a guy carrying a gun after they have been dating a while.
Nope, not legal to carry in a bar here. I have no problem going to a bar and not drinking.If it's legal to carry in the bar then no one says you have to have an alcoholic drink. Quite a few people go to bars with friends and they don't drink alcohol. Just order something non-acoholic.

Instead of alter the way I carry, I think I will just give up on girls. The reason is not that I am SO into guns, just that I am tired of girls.

It won't go off by itself. However, I don't like to lock up a loaded gun. As soon as I pop the trunk, from inside the car, there would be a loaded gun outside of my control.

I firmly believe that any girl who is with me on a first or second date (probably out to 10 dates or more), even if there is great chemistry, would be instantly and completely be turned off to learn that I carry. That's my answer. It's kinda pointless for me to ask a dating question anyways. I guess it was just a hypothetical. Nevermind.
Welcome to the new day and age of dating. Everything has gone to high speed low drag. If you aren't trying to sleep with a girl on the first date, you aren't interested or interesting enough to keep. Hell even the term "date" isn't used much anymore. Its "hooking up".
Hooking up is sex or making out or the like.
And her safety is her responsiblity, not mine. She's a grown woman. She's not a kid who needs a guardian to hold her hand at all times, and I don't expect to be there at all times.
Heh, thought it was the gameNo more games.
or, do you just suggest doing something else, leaving her wondering why you got 'weird'?
???? Not sure I'm reading this right. Are you saying that when you are around that she's going to be left to fend for herself?
Guess thats where I differ. If I'm around it is my responsibility. But I take this tact with friends, and thier girlfriends/wives also. I am and have been better prepared and trained to do this. But I'm not going out of my way to fight her battles for her.
Heh, thought it was the game
There's a saying in my business. Come strong, or go home. or with a more urban flavor. Players do what they do, haters do what they can.
Guess thats what I love about my industry, no matter how much older I get, the girls stay the same age. I'm a social deviant, I work in nightclubs and bars. And I prefer it that way. There's only one job I'd trade it all for, and my knees won't let me do it anymore.
No, if someone is going out and trying to pick a fight with her, I'll stick up for her in the same way I would for my male friends, or anybody else I know. But that's because I'm a nice guy, not because it's my responsiblity. Also becaue that'd interfere with my good time. I'm a date, not a hired bodyguard. I'm not a babysitter and she's not a kid, in the end, she's her own responsibility. If her actions are bringing down the s*** down on herself, that's her fault.
I was saying that you can be blunt and be yourself now, without all the pomp and ceremony and formality of the old fashioned ways.
If you see a girl at a party and she's flirting with you, and you're flirting with her, you both know what you want, you can just go and ask her to go back to your place without all the formality of dating or meeting anybody.
Like I said earlier, High speed low drag. Its the Game. Basically, the game of hooking up. I know you don't plan on asking her to your place to play video games or to have a meaningful political discussion (if that even exists)
14. Even with a concealed handgun license, where can I not carry a firearm?
Oregon Law states: Possession of a Concealed Handgun License does not authorize you to carry a firearm on any of the following properties: Any Federal facility. (i.e. Federal Court House, Post Office, Social Security Office, in airports, and on airplanes). This does not prohibit the carrying of firearms on federal lands, other than designated wilderness areas, incident to hunting or other lawful purposes. National Forests marked or posted by signs prohibiting all firearms. You may not carry a firearm concealed while upon an Indian Reservation/Indian property without the written permission of the tribal judge. This may also apply to certain casinos that are on the Indian lands. In a courtroom, jury room, judge’s chambers or the areas adjacent thereto that the presiding judge determines should be free of firearms to ensure the safety of the litigants, court personnel, witnesses and others. Additionally, many private businesses have conditions regarding the possession of firearms on their premises. If you violate these conditions you could, under certain circumstances, be subject to arrest under Oregon trespass laws, in which case your concealed handgun license would be seized and/or revoked.
