My daughter still talks about my biggest dating rule (and I had many): If a boy wanted to date her, she would tell him that when he met me, I would be inviting him out to my garage to have a look at my cars, and "just chat like guys". To this day, not one boy ever told her what we talked about, and only one boy ever returned for a second visit......that boy is now my son-in-law, he's very respectful, and has taken very good care of my little girl. They even gave us a precious little granddaughter/princess. To this day, my son-in-law still won't tell her what was said those many years ago in my garage.
you can PM me what you said.. I'll take all the help I can get in the coming years...
