Sara: Sunday night at FLOCK we talked about dating. Ahhh dating. The awkward-ness of it never fails and really never ends, even when you're 30. Even when it's a great first date, it's still awkward. Anyways, we talked all about dating.
We started the night off with some skits, 2 skits about the Best Date Ever and 2 skits about the Worst Date Ever. Let's be honest, I should have just renamed the activity "Most awkward skits about a first date you can think of" because wow....awk-sauce! But they were hilarious. We had Melvin, and a blind blind date (love it) and con-joined twins, and human bowling pins, and snowball fights, and awkward dads, and Revelation soup, and bungee jumping. Definitely all things I have done on a first date. Obviously.
And then Aaron and I got into the meat of the night. We'll just let the quotes sum that up.
Sara: What was invented that changed courtship into the modern dating of today?
Kids: the telephone, television, sewing machines (what?)
Michael: Women's Rights
Aaron: So Melvin here, is from another country where they don't date, they have arranged marriages? Where are you from Melvin?
Collin (as Melvin): Canada
Someone else: That's why he wearing a "USA" hat.
Sara: What is dating? Come up with a definition in your small group.
Erica: When you go get food together...you know, *wink*, the code
Aaron: *crazy, intense, knee-slapping laughter*
Aaron: Well, usually the guy is into the girl since he asked her out but that doesn't mean that the girl is into the guy.
Sara: Yeah, I went out with this guy once who was really nice but he was sooo short.
Aaron: Oh, so you discriminate based on height, huh?
Sara: He had to sit on a cushion in his car.
Aaron: So when is a good time, or age, to start dating?
Erica: When boys mature.
Samantha: Sooo, never.
Aaron: Who should you date? What are some qualities you should look for?
Erica: Someone who makes you really warm when they're around and makes your tongue swell up.
Aaron: First dates should involve doing something interactive so you can talk and get to know the other person. And it can be free, like the petting zoo. The petting zoo is a great place for a date and it's free and it's not just for kids. And it's much cooler than when you were a kid because you had to ask your mom for quarters to buy feed, now you can just bring your own to feed the goats. And baby goats might be the most adorable creatures ever. Just saying.
(Sara: he was very passionate about the petting zoo)
