Got out of a dinner date well i think i have. What's happening now is im going to pick her up from the airport at brisbane which is a good 50 min drive fml. Might go out for lunch after i pick her up. Has anybody else been in this situation before ? first time meeting a girl when she hops of a plane from over seas.

Is she from overseas or just coming home?
 
I met a girl from a dating website for the first time about a month ago- she's now my girlfriend.

I'm not sure how long you've been talking to her for, but I was talking to this girl for approx. 2 months (Skype, phonecalls, Facebook) and thought I knew her pretty well. We joked about meeting up and both promised not to be nervous or awkward- so that helped.

My advice is to keep it casual and fun. If for some reason there is no romantic attraction you'll still have a good time if you meet her for drinks at a trendy bar. Lighten up the mood with a few alcoholic beverages, make her laugh, and maybe think of an activity that is a little out of the ordinary. There's no reason to do the cliche' candle-lit dinner date... That's way to much pressure for everyone involved.

Basically, I went in with the mindset that I was just meeting up with a friend. I didn't care if anything came of it- but I was going to make sure by the end of the night were going to be friends at the very least. I guess this is because we had a lot in common on a mental level? Anyway... A few hours into the date she asked me to kiss her and the rest is history.

Expectation ruins everything. Just enjoy yourself and everything will work out.

We have been talking i think for around a month. And i have clearly told her i do not do dinner dates via candles and stuff and she does not mind so that's good :). And yeah should be casual picking up from airport then going to have lunch just before grand final.

I did say i would give an update :)

Unfortunately it has not gone well. She sent me an email and txt message on Friday saying that she would not arrive on Saturday. Her passport and vital documents have been seized by the hotel she was staying at due to not being able to pay for the hotel. She said she had a voucher worth a lot but she could not trade it for money to get her documents back. Then asked if i could help pay the 580 euros which is a lot in aus dollars. And she would fully refund me the money when i met her at the airport. When she got all her documents back. So after reading that i new i was being scammed so unfortunately it had came to a end. I wont reply back to that email. So yeah bit crushed atm but it was online dating and i did not have my hopes up. I wish i had a better story to tell.

I think it went well, at its most basic she was a scammer, and you caught her out. If nothing else, you can take away a bit of confidence that you knew what was about to go down and cut it away
 
Yeah, seems like you were quite fortunate you didn't lose any money. Bit of a lesson learnt i think. I take it the story she was coming back "home" to the Gold Coast was a fabrication, because i'm not sure the Hotel "she" was apparently going to stay at would have any authority to seize any documents.

she did go to the extent in the email showing why they did in sweden they can actually take your visa so you cant do a runner without paying the bills. But either way who gives somebody that much money and you have not had a first date lol.
