Whys it have to not be ok to ask if a woman likes you?

Do you use the word "super" like that even when you talk in normal life?

If she doesn't mind you carrying a gun to your dates, then fine, but if she does, you are trying to elude my question. I asked you what if she finds out on a date or even later gets to know that you brought a gun to your dates? Would she be ok with it?

Finally, it's funny that you talk about irrational fears when you are afraid of going to the mall or a date without your gun. So going to the mall might be dangerous, but it's an irrational fear to go on a date with an almost stranger armed with a gun, sure.

Thanks for answering me. It’s good to have stuff that will be around for ever. I have things like that. Ive started to give some away to nieces and nephews as I get older. (There’ll be no grandchildren). Ive never fired a handgun myself, so didn’t realize how easily you could get at it. I envisioned holstered, up under the arm. I have some experience with long guns. Different story.

I most likely won’t have kids either so no grand kids, I won’t have nieces or nephews either nor do I have friends. So I guess I’ll just sell most of it before I die and let the state have the rest
May buy another handgun with my tax returns even if it be rarely used it’ll bring me some happiness in a dark world

I carry Min on my right hip, others carry back, front, left, under arm, chest, and leg. Oh I forgot pocket carry and in bags. Most hip carry holsters have a retainer that keeps pressure on it so all you do is pull out.

Frankly brining a gun along to a date is disturbingly weird and scary , and it could be very much a dealbreaker.
Never heard of the date crimes in the news? A gun makes you very powerful, theortically you can take her life in a second; she still doesn’t know your character well.

How the hell you didn’t envision this would frighten the hell of her (if she finds out at least)? Sly, seriously, no one brings a gun to a date.

You don't know American culture that well. The right to have weapons is Constitutionally guaranteed. Whether it's allowed to be brought into government buildings or private businesses is up to local and federal laws or business owners, but there are actually more rules concerning the proper way to keep guns out than there are procuring them.

I don't personally own a handgun, but that's just a matter of money and priorities. In Mississippi, as an example, guns are relatively cheap and easy to buy. The way our state concealed-carry law is worded, the licensing agency "SHALL grant" a license to anyone who applies. Not "review and make a decision whether to grant" but "SHALL GRANT."

There's nothing wrong with well-intentioned people carrying weapons. Not even on dates. People with criminal and violent tendencies are going to harm others at will without regard to any regulatory law. The kind of person who is open about the fact he HAS a gun and exposes himself is not the kind of person looking for trouble. We like to keep our guns close. We do NOT like to use them. We're not out looking for trouble. It's just that trouble will find us. Someone in sly's situation really DOES need to keep a weapon handy because people like sly are especially vulnerable and very close to people looking to cause harm.

So even if everybody carries guns and is allowed to do so openly, people with bad intentions will not do it openly because they are evil, like in a bad thriller movie. I guess they'll probably get their guns illegally too because it's more evil, even if they could buy one at the grocery store in front of their house.

Also lol if she wanted him to take off his shirt.

Even if it's constitutional I don't think it's a common practice there to carry one on a date.

Most people who carry a gun do it 24/7 dates, churches work, everywhere. Only reason I don’t is my work doesn’t allow it and since I take bus I can’t just keep it in my car during work like most people do.
A lot of women who carry take it on dates, those who don’t have pepper spray, should I be offended and stop dating her cause she probably has pepper spray in her purse?
But what if I had attacked her? Hat if she got attacked on way to the date? No I’d encourage her to carry atleast pepper spray , or a taser or eventually a gun.
What she don’t kniw don’t hurt her, she may even be appreciative of me carrying when she finds out. She’s apparently conservative if her family’s conservative they probably own guns. Lots of people own and carry guns here. 20,000 people have a permit to concealed carry here, many more just open carry with no permit needed.

She initiated texting again. So still texting is that good sign?

YES!

You did well by waiting before initiating.

Congrats sly, she is interested.

Keep it cool though, and no f- gun on the date!

Pepper spray is designed to be purely a self-defense short-range weapon, not the same as a gun at all.

So your state culture is very similar to the old Cowboy culture we see in Wild west movies?

Good on you for getting a text from her.

Totally aside from the issue of carrying or not, don't take her for a walk on a dark secluded path at night. Why? This kind of thing makes most women nervous, not saying she was afraid of YOU but it's just that we are hard wired to be uncomfortable in situations like that.

So stick to a public venue, well lighted and traveled, if you are walking at night together. You want her to feel comfortable and safe around you.

very good sign, well done.

Yes Sly, what could possibly go wrong? It's totally impossible that a date will discover that you are hiding a gun under your shirt. And even if she will, she will probably be ok with it and compliment you, feel protected, then she will take out her gun from the pursue and you will start talking about your shared passion for guns and next date will be at a shooting range!

Yes.

I had a feeling this would happen.

I would be freaked out if I learned that the guy I was dating was carrying a gun.

Maybe next time you should leave the gun at home.
