Getting the date to stay for an entire meal would be the hard part.

Since everyone else is being either cute or delicate, I'll say it: You don't know when to drop a subject, you don't when to let the other person be wrong, and you lack experience interacting with the opposite sex romantically.
None of that is true, I'm quite charismatic, actually - people have a way of opening up to me, being drawn in.
I'm very egotistical and self-confident. Those are qualities that draw people in even if they find them to be distasteful. Especially women. I also have the important gifts of being a strong speaker and good storyteller.
I simply don't follow up on the way others open up to me because *the cup does not fill the bottle*

Basically, it's important to let the woman think she's smart, or at least don't go out of your way to let her know that she's not as smart as you. Don't point out her "errors," foibles, or particulars of her appearance, manner, or personality you don't like. Treat her like she's special/unique/different. Given interaction over the internet, most of us think you're completely incapable of these things. Because of that, we have the opinion that you're going to strike out like you're trying to hit off of Randy Johnson.
But you see, that's the point. I don't want to. I don't enjoy that sort of thing. And I'm fine with that.
I am content knowing that "she" is probably not as smart as I am.
I am content to allow "her" to stick with her errors, foibles, and things I don't like - and stay out of my way.
I am content to let "her" know just how low my estimate of her worth is - and let her take that estimate and get out of my way.
I would like sex, to be sure. But that desire is not nearly as strong as my desire to do as I please and avoid experiences I find obnoxious.
And of course one day I'll be able to buy a harem and use the equipment when and how I want.
I'm content to wait.
My priorities and reasoning may seem strange to you, but I find your perceptions of superiority based on your ability to attract women at least as strange. After all, considering there's 6.2 billion people on earth produced through sex, and the world sucks, clearly sex appeal is not a very good measure of personal worth.
