One of the few things I've continued to do is order for dates at bars and restaurants, even food carts. This seems to have worked better was I was in high school. Now, girls just bitch, "What? You think I can't order myself?".
Guys, it is actually worth it to keep this up? Should I keep holding open doors for young girls (I'll always do it for the elderly, though).
What do you advise?
Well, if that happened to me I would be tempted to call the waiter back over to cancel the order and then leave the restaurant. Might cost you the bang, but you wouldn't have paid for it with your principles.
Let's assume that he's got the bang already (cause we all know you don't take girls out to dinner that you haven't slammed already).
This is just another shit test.
He's not passing it because his frame isn't dominant enough to pull it off...something is making him not congruent in the eyes of the girl.
If a girl said this to me in front of the server I'd just laugh and say "awww" and perhaps "she's cute isn't she" to the waiter/ess, then carry on ordering.
As for opening doors...sure...just make sure this is always accompanied by a slap on the ass as she saunters through.
Sorry, maybe I'm an idiot, but what is my "frame"?
And yeah, we've fucked. She's not great, but most girls really aren't, despite what they say.

Maybe I'm just old, but I don't subscribe to the "No dinner date before the bang". Of course there are tons of free things you can do on a first date, The park, the water, coffee, museum, etc. and all that's great too. But sometimes you're in the mood to go out and have a meal at a cool restaurant. Granted it costs more, but I don't do it with the intention it's going to entitle me to a bang. I do it because I want to eat there with some company.
Of course the restaurant is close to the apartment or we have to drive back to my place because I made sure we left her car there.
If the chemistry is there she is going to come back to your apartment anyway. Even if you have to take a cab to the other side of town.
Also, you open the doors because it's the masculine thing to do ("taking action in the world"). You don't do it because you're hoping she'll appreciate it, though she should.

^ That's all good strategy I've used too.
I think if the chemistry is there it can all build to a boiling point through conversation without ever having to touch her. Of course touching her is good too. Once a first date caught me by surprise by literally springing from her seat, and lunging over the table to kiss me in a packed restaurant. That's how much the tension built up between us. I'll never forget that night. Snowstorm in Greenwich village and we trudged through it all the way back to her condo in Williamsburg for an all-nighter.
Of course I've also had my fair share of dinner dates that were a bust.

^ I've had similar results on occasion before... women can indeed get extremely turned on ust through conversation if the guy demonstrates positive attributes - confidence, social dominance, intelligence and humour. I've had girls tell me they got wet just from talking to me, or ask to be taken out of the venue so we can make out/have sex without ever having touched her.

Some of you guys are trying way to hard to be alpha. Just be yourself, do what you like to do and don't take shit from anyone.

Not blaming anyone since we all have our different styles, but damn some of you guys insist on being Mr. Alpha 24/7. For me, especially with our women if today, I just ask the question if she wants me to take care of the bill, and that's it! Ordering for her, insisting vehemently on the location and all is too much of a low rewards high risk type of thing for me.
These are all details that matter very little since it is your manness that gets you laid at the end of the day. On the flipside, I can see this ultra alphaness making guys more attractive to women... so I know some of you can pull that off easy.

What do you mean "for her"? I pick something I want, she picks something she wants, waitress comes and I order what we want.

It depends on the restaurant and the time of day.
If its Denny's let her decide. If its sushi, you do all the talking even if the girl is from Hokkaido, even if you are in Hokkaido.
You have to eat. You can't go to the dog park and then fuck all night on an empty stomach.
Aloha!

Last night I told my date what she was going to eat and then I ordered it for her. Was that alpha?

Here is my actual philosophy...
If you're a budding player, or new to this shit, don't waste your money taking women out to nice dinners in hopes of a bang. Just don't. Chances are you'll get taken advantage of and your wallet will be lighter. Just like any woman can suck a cock, any idiot can take a nice looking women out to dinner and pay for it.
Once you're experienced, and assuming you have money, do whatever the fuck you want to do with whomever you want. I'll take a new girl out to an expensive dinner because that's what I'm in the mood for - not to try and impress her. If I want steak, we'll get steak, and I'm not going to let her lack of money stand in the way of me eating what I feel like eating. I don't recommend taking every decent looking women you come across to dinner, but there's no need to eat at Applebees.
The key is outcome dependency. After you've smashed enough smuts, the outcome is entirely irrelevant anyway. I hope to bang, but if we don't, it's not the end of the world. At least I got to enjoy steak and scotch instead of frozen chicken fingers. I'm sure as fuck not going to take a woman out to 50 dinners in hopes of a bang, but I'm also not going to relegate myself to Caronaritas until she's sucked my cock.

On that note...
If I'm seeing a 21 - 24 year old, I'll usually take her somewhere fancy that has a tasting menu. I'll explain that "this pairs nicely with this, this is the best thing on the menu, this is the best dessert" etc.
I have found that they appreciate you walking them through the menu, particularly if they're unaccustomed to nicer places.
It's not "this is what you're eating bitch", it's more "if we leave this restaurant and you didn't try this one thing, you'd probably regret it your whole life. It pairs nicely with a merlot. Let's do that. If you don't like it, by all means, send it back." My recommendations are always on point. I make sure it's a place I've been to, and a place where the server will recognize my face as a good tipper.
The tactic of ordering for her tends to work more effectively with younger girls who are not used to fine dining. If they've been to the restaurant 50 times chances are they're like "Eh, I've had that. I'd prefer the tartare." If it's their first time there, it's a different story. They appreciate not fumbling through the menu.

Here's a move I like to pull:
First, I don't bring girls to expensive restaurants when we first start hanging out. I remember telling a girl I just found out about this great little burger place and it was really good and I was going to take her there. I got her in the car and didn't tell her where we were going and pulled into the Wendy's parking lot. She laughed and was like "This is it?" and I said "It's amazing, you have to try it." I still got the bang later.
Since I don't make it a point to fill girls' stomachs with four-star meals, especially before they've earned it. A place I used to go a lot was Chipotle (before the Norovirus was giving everyone the shits over there). I always liked to let the girl go ahead of me in line so I could take a minute to "decide" when, in truth, I pretty much get the same thing every time. They'd go ahead of me and since they'd encounter the cashier first and I'd still be back picking out stuff I wanted in my burrito, she'd have to pay for her own food. Never make the mistake of going in front of her in line or else you'll get suckered with the whole "are these two together?" cashier question. I've never once had it happen where a cashier asked if the girl was going to cover the cost of my food. Funny how that works.
