Hard to tell if she smelled beta from first sight:

Quote:

Maria: He had a jacket and a button-up shirt and jeans. I thought he was nice-looking.

They had some rapport going:

Quote:

Maria:We talked a little bit about family, about the things that make us tick, I guess. [The conversation] flowed. We were laughing and talking. It wasn’t interview-style.

The first warning sign:

Quote:

Harold: She got her master’s from University of Texas and works in social work. She’s very committed to her career;

Cracks begin to show that she has not much going for her besides her career:

Quote:

He doesn’t watch TV, and I’m kind of a couch potato.

Quote:

she doesn’t seem very outgoing, and I don’t mean that in a very negative way, but she’s a little shy. And when we were talking about vacations or music or television, she’s very mainstream.

But in spite of that, she is pretty, and she did seem mildly impressed with him:

Quote:

Harold: [I’d rate the date] a 4.4. She’s okay. I know that’s not glowing and effusive, but I like her.

Maria: I would give it a 4. I would say this is one of the better first dates that I have had. I’m really glad I met him. He’s such an interesting person: His take on life is something I think would be good to be around.

The final result?

Quote:

UPDATE: There’s been a second date. And a third. “We talk about every day,” Harold said a week post-date. Are more dates in the cards? “Yeah, I think so,” Maria said.

"And he’s very confident in himself, and I always admire that. "

there you go, big guy.

Hard to make judgements from the limited information, but she seems a refreshingly uncomplicated, feminine woman.

Its weird to read that one of these Date Labs went well. I'm disappointed.

She looks pretty but will you guys find evidence she is a SIF?

Favorite book?

Harold: “Getting to Yes”

He means ...Getting bitches to say yes

I'm no connoisseur of black girls but I think she's cute. She has the typical traits that I find attractive ...pronounced cheek bones, small pointy chin, thin dancer legs.

This Date Lab shows the difference between Black dating and the rest in DC. Harold clearly knows his worth, I did not sense beta from him nor alpha, he's just a regular dude whom seems sure of himself. Harold is articulate, educated, well rounded. He has his pickings of these socially awkward over educated black females all over the DMV.

Black women don't put on weight the same as other girls. Her cheek bones are pronounced, and her ass would be so big It would look like she's sitting on a beach ball if she was a fattie.

I've never thought this about a DateLab girl, but I'd love to take a crack at this girl. Looks cute, thin, and not a bitch.

Quote:

Maria: He seemed more of an adventurer than I am. He ran with the bulls last summer. I would love to hear the story and see the pictures, but I would never do that. He doesn’t watch TV, and I’m kind of a couch potato. It was something that was different, but it wasn’t anything that was bad.

I'd much rather a girl be a couch potato than an ADD party sloot; the former is much more pleasant to be around and her interest is much easier to attain and retain.

Quote:

Harold: She said something very smart — that when she’s thinking about a potential mate she’s looking more for a friend who’s your best friend versus this romantic thing that may die off eventually. Just hearing her say that made the entire date pretty relaxed.

[Timoteo]

I think this is only the second Date Lab I've seen that ended well. This girl is kind of practical, but in a more positive way. In a way, this date played to the cliché that opposites attract - that doesn't always happen. People get too hung up on what they have in common, instead of being exposed to something different. Normally I'd be worried if a chick talked about wanting a friend, as opposed to a lover, but she's actually looking to build towards something more lasting. Homie still needs to try to smash in the next couple of dates though...HA HA!

It was also good to see a man come into one of these showing confidence. You can tell she's probably got a decent figure - there's enough of her in the pic to see she's kind of petite up-top, and her lower leg is very thin also. She might have a little something in the hips and thighs, which is nice.

There's nothing like calmly reading my Sunday Date-Lab thread with my coffee in one hand and my mouse in the other. This is my Sunday crossword puzzle.

Who are you? And what have you done with the real Date Lab?

Only good things to say about this girl. Cute smile, pretty, good body. She reminds me of an ex-gf.

Here's to you - sweet and feminine teachers, nurses, au pairs and social workers of the world.

I like that he broke the ice by having them take shots. That was a good move.

[le prince perdu]

I have come to notice that there is a huge group of pretty 17-24 light skin girls that are thin,somewhat feminine and not too bitchy.
Those girls grew up with single moms that had decent salaries (nursing or some shit) so they are not dirt poor and they went to decent high schools.

See when you go to a high school full of pretty white girls,latinas,asians and other light skin girls, guys have a lot of choices ; especially the
" cool guys" or the guys with good looks.

Another thing is that when it comes to black guys a whole lot of them in those middle class high schools are either gay or highly nerdy.
That only leave place for the football guys or regular urban dudes, but there is another problem, many of those guys are beta and don't know shit about game, so they get a hot girl and stick with her.

So if there are any remaining guys that give them the "tingles", those girls have to compete against a bunch of equally attractive girls.

I experienced this shit firsthand when I did my junior/senior years back in '10 and '11, there were a lot of single pretty light girls,latinas and vietnamese girls, a whole lot of betas and probably 10 players in the entire high school, so many girls went to prom alone that now that I think about it,it makes me cringe.

The thing is there are more and more of those girls coming out of high schools, and less "cool dudes"; the ones already in college are not getting any luckier either.

Young 19-26 black guys with muscles,educated and cool are higly in demand. I haven't been in houston for almost 6 months, but man when I get down there I always get my share; plus I speak french and I'm somewhat well travel.

Point is this girl went to UT, she might be one these girls, homie should get the bang easily,no sweat.
