It is all up to you and there are really no rules.

Just make sure you let her know of the plan before the date and she is cool with it. If not, you have some time to make adjustments.

Just understand that all the time is usually on the clock and you don't want to waste all that time doing nothing or eating dinner. The goal is to save as much time as possible for pussy too. It might behoove you to arrange for a restaurant within the hotel or close by. If you have a particular restaurant in mind, you can try getting a hotel closer to that restaurant.

goes to get the car alone, then I meet him down there. On couple's dates, we meet at the restaurant before but I don't eat...just drink ha ha, then we return to the hotel together.

Your best bet is to ask what she would like to do.

I do not suggest driving her to dinner.  If she isn't already extremely comfortable with you she might not be comfortable getting into a car with you.  Getting a cab is usually your best bet.

Restaurants don't have to be within any specific distance. One would assume you don't want to spend a lot of time in the car so something within a 15min range makes the most sense.  If the weather is beautiful you might both enjoy a walk.

I don't suggest having her meet you at the restaurant if it's a first date. I've heard of many awkward stories where either the gent or lady mistakes a stranger for their possible date.  Also, in some places like Canada, initiating contact in public is problematic because it constitutes "public solicitation". On a first date it's best to meet at a private location and go out to dinner together.

Remember, you can always ask the lady what would make her the most comfortable. We are not all the same

Close Distance

I had the exact same question. Luckily, the hotel, restaurant, and the bar are pretty much in the 3 min walking distance. (Was actually a coincidence). I was going to hire a towncar with the driver, but I guess I do not need it anymore. Good luck!

It really all depends on the level of comfort and rapport between the 2 parties.

dates. Two hours and three hours. In every case the location was about 5 minutes from the eating establishment. I drove to the location, went in to pick up the provider and she rode with me to the restaurant. She was someone I had seen often and was completely comfortable riding with me. The entire time was on the clock but at a rate much lower than what a usual two hour or three hour date would have been.

I prefer...

To meet the gent first either in my or his place...then i want first 50% downpayment of my time and then we leve 2gether for dinner either he has a car arrange or we can take a taxi to a closed by restaurant...Then after dinner we go back to the my or his place and then he has to give the another half of my $$$ and then we play...

Dinner date etiquette

Do not ask her for Greek right after a heavy dinner.

Dilemma

I find this situation very interesting. We try too hard to figure out what is the best thing to do on dates with civvie girls. Too often, we over think in too much details. Although I thought myself that dealing with providers will alleviate such "frustration" and uncertainty of what I am "supposed" to do, the same questions and urgency for preparation remains. No easy way out here, at least for my own personal satisfaction. (Unless that is if I decide to treat providers much differently than I would to civie girls)

For me most of the time the dinner dates occur in the hotel where the gent is staying.Every so often dinner might be at a restaurant located in the hotel near by the gent and I have walked if the weather is nice or taken a cab.In one instance we met at the restaurant and he drove his car I followed  in mine to his hotel.
I have never driven anyone to dinner and only once did I ride with a gent in his car to dinner he was someone I have seen many times.There is no one way to do it as every provider is different on what she is comfortable with.Just ask the lady what she prefers as you want her to be comfortable.

CTChef,

I am assuming that you're referring to taking a provider out to dinner.

I have only done this a few times AFTER the provider suggested the idea. I will not ask the provider out to dinner only because she may have something already scheduled and I do not want to interfere with her pending plans.

Even if she doesn't have anything planned, I will not ask. I let the provider make the suggestion.

As far as how far and where to go? That is entirely up to you both. Pick a place and go!

As far as whose car, some as above. Don't waste too much time fiddling with a few minor details.

Just go and "celebrate" your recent session and have fun doing so!

Serpius

Have a conversation well before hand.  You might start with: "considering your safety, what is your preferred method of getting to dinner?". Also, find out any food and drink preferences or dislikes.  The one absolute rule is don't get drunk!

Before the desert. I enjoy the companionship and flirting during the date that leads up to intimate time. Nothing more exciting than to be out with a beautiful lady that you know your going have.
All the other little details take care of themselves. This is not rocket science, just two adults having a good time.

If there is a cool place a block or so from my [ or hers if it is incall] hotel and the weather is nice and she is agreeable we will walk. Otherwise I think it best to catch a cab.
