If a girl were to tell me "you've got a little yummy on your face" I would not only leave the table and the date immediately, I may have to shoot myself after losing all faith in humanity.

Steve, do you read these articles and leave obnoxious opinions just for the attention, or are you seriously in need of psych help?

I think I agree with Steve. If a date told me "you've-got-a-little-yummy-right-here" it would probably be a short dinner. I would prefer an intelligent, dynamic companion to one who used phrases like that.

I thought this was great advice. Yes, the yummy comment was cheesy, but you can put your own spin on it. The point was to let someone know without embarrassing them.

re: The Spaz - what do you do/say if your date drops, not a fork, but a really ignorant-sounding malapropism, like saying "anecdote" when you really mean "antidote"? Hire a proofreader.

Ummm, doesn't this kinda qualify as "common sense"?.....Must be nice to have a job that requires you to tell people things they already know.

And Lilybean, it must be nice on that pedestal, way up there. You read it. Didn't like it? Come up with your own 5. Lets try to react like considerate humans - not spazzy know-it-all 12 year olds.

I cannot believe this kind of trot is ever written! One should not be on a dinner date with a person if he/she needs an internet etiquette training sesson. Get real, and get unstupid!

Anyone who follows such advice is probably not going to be someone to get a date in the first place.

Any guy who says to his (female) date "you've got a little yummy right here" will be dismissed as gay, and will never get a second date. Just my humble opinion.

My date once had a bit of alfredo sauce on her face and I said "looks like you just finished up on a sloppy [profane]". Needless to say, I am now single again. High five!
