Q: Hey DG,
Soo more than once I have taken first or second dates on strenuous hikes; it's the fastest way for me to assess a girls claim to being "outdoorsy" while also showing off my high points. 90% of the time the girls end up failing my little test: complaints, lack of coordination, physical shape, etc.

One time a girl fell in a creek, breaking her cell phone, and began crying (she wasn't physically hurt). Unfortunately, the site all this going down with her in the middle of one of the most beautiful creeks/areas around caused me to laugh hysterically at the surreal-ness of the whole situation. I haven't talked to her since...

I dont force these dates either; they usually jump at the notion of a long hike, or even suggest it themselves.

Question: when girls say they want to go on a hike, with the essence of a date, do they want to hike? or do they just want me to take them on a 20 minute hike to a good make-out/ talking spot? Should I skip the hiking until fur thur in the relationship? Or, should I drink more and just date burly-boot girls?

A: Something between the 20 minute walk and the strenuous hike will probably work. Do about an hour of a good hike but don’t kill the girls! If the girls pass the hour hike with passing colors, then you could take them on the strenuous hike but break ‘em in easy!!

Hope that helps.

Keep me posted.

Love the Madness,
DG
