Please help me melt his heart ❤️

[Heybearu]

So having had a really not great time on online dating...I've finally started to speak with someone I would like to impress. Ladies he sings, he bakes bread, he reads he's the main parent. I'm in heaven.
Id like to give him a book at our first date....he likes most genres...nothing like super seedy tho as he's quite wholesome...what can I give him that will melt his heart so I get to keep him forever?
Or at last so he looks back and thinks that was cool.
Help please x

He really doesn’t! Baking his own bread wouldn’t cut any particular ice with me.

He's single, so who do you think is cleaning his kitchen? The magic kitchen-cleaning fairy?

a flame thrower aimed correctly will melt his heart?

Failing that, as Jo Brand said 'the way to a mans heart is through his hanky pocket with a bread knife'

No. Women get fucked over constantly by men as we all know. It’s far harder to find a decent man than for a man to find a decent woman. Nothing wrong with being discerning and not flinging yourself at some bloke like an over enthusiastic puppy.

You can get books online where you can personalise it so the main character is a name of your choice.

I got one in my secret santa with my name as the main character.

Didn't wierd me out at all.

You're not Santa Claus.
😹😹😹

His mother!

Aren’t they for pre schoolers? 😬

I agree don't take a gift. Though if he turns up with warm dough and a paperback for you it's going to look like you're not really interested.

Buy him war and peace
At least then if you dont hear from him for a few weeks you’ll know why.
Or at the other end of the scale he could read The snow goose on his way home

Can't help with the book, but I hope your date goes well 😊

Codependence No More by Melodie Beattie…

I'll gently suggest no book, rather than tell you "ffs no" because I'm fascinated to hear how this bread baking, singing, reading, main character parenting god of a man transposes in the cold light of day. So I dont want you to flounce off @Heybearu

I will put a tenner on him being short, with Definate Views and a touch of halitosis

Good luck with the first date @Heybearu and come and tell us how it goes! x

I'd say it was a reading age of 12+.

What about Fatal Attraction? 😀

This is a bit much for a first date. It would give me the ick.

A man bought me a poetry book on the first date. Very thoughtful however totally freaked me out; it was waaay over the top and just came across as very "try hard". Can you hang fire till you have got to know him in real life a bit more?

Karma Sutra -pop up version!

The Little Prince. In French.

Agree, I hated it.

Ah, another vote for The Goldfinch, such a gorgeous book!
