What is a Good Guy's First Impression?
Do first impressions really make a difference? What is it that a guy can do to make a good first impression? Sometimes it seems like women don't even consider or care anymore.
I, for one, like a woman and am going to hang out with her for the first time this weekend. She told me before that she didn't get anything for X-mas and that it was pretty boring. She stated that she didn't get anything "special". So that rang a bell. I figured i would get her a little something for her. A scarf, a beanie hat on (with) a teddy bear. It's nothing big but, I kinda want to show her that she can have a special Christmas gift in a way.
I think this is a good impression, how about you?

How ya' doin', Mouse? =D
And yeah, I'd say that makes for a considerate, thoughtful impression right there. =D
Full update on Monday please
Just personally, i'd feel a little weird if someone acted upon a random comment i made, the first time i hung out with them. If she's really interested, though, she'll like it.
I think first impressions are really important and hard to fix once you put one on. I think getting her a present would be cute, sense she mentioned it. Make sure you update on monday how it goes! Just be yourself, and if it clicks, it clicks
I would be thrilled if someone did something that sweet on a first date. Good plan :)
that is very sweet gesture. and please do give us an update. :)
that's extremely cute! I would also like a update (:
she's asking for presents already? isn't it a bit soon? but yeah, otherwise, being creative is nice, i just wouldn't recommend sprinting for a diamon necklace or something.
first impressions are important. if you make a bad first impression it is possible to overcome it, but its a lot harder.
i think thats extremely cute. lucky girl there! i hope shes appreciative!
haha since everyone wants an update can we come along with you on your date... LOL just kidding of course. all the best

First impressions are SUPER important to me!!!!
Honesty and just being relaxed and easy going and CONFIDENT are things I generally look for :)
And @Utoppia - Agreed! Creativity does go a long way.
lol, as a secret santa gift, i gave a guy a stuffed penguin with a beanie hat on it.. that he could use. it was nice.
don't overdo it or she might be hoping for gifts every time.
It sounds like a cute idea. Good luck :))
this sounds like such a nice thought haha =).
Do it! :)
I don't tend to pay attention to first impressions.. However, I have noticed that with a lot of guys, I get to know them, decide my first impression was wrong, get to know them a bit better, and realise I was right from the start...
Usually it turns out to be a bad thing. Just don't put on an act, I guess, is my point! :L
i'm personally not a fan of presenting gifts on the first date. i feel as if it's trying to buy her, as opposed to wooing her with your amazing personality.
it definitely sounds sweet and thoughtful, do update.
I think what you have mentioned sounds like a sweet gesture, and a lot of girls have agreed; but I have not made up my mind about whether the girl was just being unusually open about her Christmas or pouting.
To answer the question "What is a good guy's first impression"...it's simply just being a good guy. If you're a good guy, a girl will know. I mean, you have to be careful and considerate too...but if you're the real deal, it will be seen.
Good luck! I hope for an update, too.
On our first date, my husband mentioned he was going to Maine. I teasingly told him to bring me back a lobster. So on our second date, after he got back from Maine, he gave me a stuffed lobster he picked up out there just for me. So, it may not have been a first impression exactly, but neither is yours. Think of it this way: you've already made your first impression if she agreed to go out with you. Really, it's the second impressions--like that one--that matter. If you think she's the teddy bear sort of gal, go for it. Personally? I'd love it.

that's an adorable idea! :D
Sounds like a good impression to me! It shows that you actually pay attention when she's speaking, and I think it will mean something to her that you remembered her saying what she did. Also, the gift itself is cute. It's not too overboard, and it's something different. Can't wait to see how it goes! :]
I think it's sweet , making a female feel special always makes a good impression , good luck on your date
yes, she was definitely dropping a hint, lol.
