Mr. Administrator: This should have stayed as a topic of its own. It is in a series of posts that will get these 2D astroid nerds out of the house and into a womens arms. Please don't interfere with this highly important process.

 

Thanks.

A tie for work, fine but for a date? way too mich!

 

How can people not know how to tie a tie? I learnt when I was 12. Its like leraning to tie lases for guys, a right of passage.Have to wear a tie wednesday.. Not looking foward to it. So happy work involves jeans and a t-shirt for me.

lol as I said, it depends on the date lol

 

But I agree that everyone should know how to tie a tie. But part of the problem is the parents, you can't expect a kid to learn how to tie a tie if his parents never make him wear one. People really dress like slobs today.

 

Last time I was in NYC I took my date to a the Petrossian at 58th and 7th, suit coat and tie recommended. While we were there this group of people came in wearing torn up jeans and ratty looking clothes. They were loud, obnoxious and rude, heck while the waiter was trying to take one of the woman's orders, she answered her phone! She didn't even say excuse me, just stopped ordering in mid sentence and carried on a 5 minute conversation!!!

 

We caught a show on Broadway and the only people who were even dressed out of shorts and T-shirts were 15+ years older than us.

Basically I think that our society has a serious problem with not just the way they dress but etiquette also. I don't understand why people have such a problem dressing up. I understand not enjoying a tie as they can be uncomfortable around your neck, but I'll tell you there is nothing wrong with a good pair of slacks, casual dress shoes, a nice blazer with the top button of your shirt undone, assuming it all fits you.

 

Obviously I'm not saying that should be the way to dress everywhere, I mean if you're going out to get food a Burger King obviously not but it doesn't hurt to look like you actually take care of yourself every now and then.

I guess I just think dates should have a level of informality to them. Dress up by all means, but a tie is a little too far and takes things to an uncomfortable level, unless that is the venue requires one.

I agree with that to some level. The problem I think the post is taking is that with boys/men today there never seems to be an occasion that jumps out of the "informal".

 

My all means its fun to have informal dates, I mean a lot of dating is being able to spend informal time with someone, but there should be formal time too, like a nice dinner ect.
