How many of you are just so sick and tired of resume-exchanging dates? You know: you meet someone, you go out to dinner, and you spend the whole night just basically exchanging resumes?

“Well, from 2001 to 2003, I dated and lived with Mary Thompson. In 2004, I was depressed from the breakup so I didn’t really date anybody. In 2005, I got back into the dating world, and I dated the following six women… In 2006, I had a mini-relationship with Ann Johnson.”

It’s almost like listing your entire resume! You tell the same stories over and over again and you feel like a broken record.

The next time you go out on a date, why not bring a PowerPoint presentation and a tape recorder? Then all you have to do is press play! Put up the slideshow and she can see your childhood, where you went to college, what you looked like when you were younger, and photos of your first girlfriend.

Just bring a PowerPoint! You can show a photo of the shrink you saw in 1999 and explain that this was your “confused year.” When she asks about your job history, you can go to that section of the PowerPoint and show her some of the companies you’ve worked for.

Really, dates are incredibly monotonous. I don’t believe in dates. I believe in hanging out. I have to take my dog for a walk – why don’t we go together? I’ll even bring the plastic bag and clean up after Daphne!

Resume exchange dates and even PowerPoint presentation dates are not very fun. There is nothing interesting about them.

So the next time you want to do a PowerPoint presentation date, why don’t you think outside the box? Why don’t you do some of the dates that we’ve talked about over and over again on the blog? There are so many fun and different dates.

Let’s abandon the PowerPoint presentation and resume dates. Let’s start thinking and having fun and interesting dates.

You’re going to thank me because you’ll be out on a date this week, having dinner with someone and once the date gets a little boring, you’ll think to yourself, man, David was so right! I wish I’d brought my tape recorder to take over for me! I don’t want to be here!

And the tape recorder can do it. You could even just have two tape recorders talking to each other!

Todays video is all about how to meet people in the park. Summer is almost over and the time to meet is now!
