Get Nate a Date!

"Nathan is a fine, outstanding young man from Oregon who loves reading, puppies, children and long walks on the beach." Sensus Divinitas

Thank you for visiting GetNateaDate.com! We are pleased to be able to further this extremely worthwhile cause. This project started with this blog post from Sensus Divinitas and this eBay auction from mrdrools2000. Below you can see the latest information on our efforts towards Nathan getting a date.

One way you can help is by sending dating advice to the Foundation President. All helpful advice received will be posted on this site to aid Nate in his search for a date. Your first name will be published unless you tell us otherwise.

Again, thank you for supporting Nate in this new adventure, and check back soon for updates!

Thank you AC for the following helpful pick up lines!

So I found these courtship pick-me-up-lines on the web a couple years ago, and thought they were worth sending over :0). May Nate find them of good use ;-).

10. “So I talked to your dad last night…”

9. “I lost my phone number. Maybe through a purposeful relationship, we can find out if I’m supposed to have yours.”

8. “Your Bible…or mine?”

7. “We’re perfect for each other. Our parents have so much in common!”

6. This one comes right out of the book of Song of Solomon, “You’re so, so, how can I say this Biblically? Your teeth are like a flock of ewes that have come up from the washing… Your hair is like a herd of goats running down a mountain!”

5. “Do your feet hurt? ‘Cause you’ve been running through God’s plans for me all eternity long!”

4. “Let’s get our siblings together and go out sometime.”

3. “I can’t wait to see what you look like at 50.”

2. “Your modesty’s showing.”

1. “My parents are back in town. Wanna come over?”

My suggestion to help GetNateADate: invite the girl over to listen to a Tim Keller and or John Piper sermon.  Afterward, discuss the sermon.  If you are sufficiently pleased with her insight into the message, and her reformed sensibilities, then you can slowly transition to other topics of more general interest such as, do you want to homeschool your children?  I have seen this work very effectively in the past, and it has led to at least one very happy marriage. 

 

From a well-wisher who would prefer to remain anonymous.

  1. Fixed the horizontal centering in the header, footer, and slideshow.
  2. Added a Shoutbox widget to the main page. Now you can easily chat with others and share your dating ideas quickly!
  3. Shuffled the order of the widgets on the main page.
  4. Added a Capcha! system to the blog comments to reduce the amount of spam that gets posted. (We were getting about 10 spam post attempts a day.)

Have a great day!

The following advise was received this early this morning.

We offer our most humble advice on the subject of searching for women in our lonely world. First, always choose your shoes with great caution. You can tell a great deal about a man by the footwear he chooses. Shoes will serve two purposes; they will make a stunning first impression, and be helpful for the next part of your mission. When decided upon the proper footwear, go to a park or other public place. Now, find an easy target. Look for a lady with a big purse in high heels; she will be slow and weighed down by her bag. Using your surroundings, and quick MacGyver-like instinct carry out the following plan. Text a picture of your target to a friend and have him move in to steal her purse, or small dog. This will create a damsel in distress effect. Then, being the hero you are, sweep in to save the day and rescue the helpless princess. After beating up your friend (who knows about the plan and acts extra scared and weak, making you look strong and courageous) and retrieving her priceless item, wipe the sweat from your feverish brow and wait for her confession of eternal gratitude. But wait; seal your fate by faking an injury caused by your heroic deed. Now she will be forced to care for her injured savior, as a sign of her appreciation. Now, you have secured a date…the rest is up to you, oh Good (and might we add handsome) Samaritan.

Best of luck kind sir…best of luck,

Tessa and Katelan

I think this idea is fantastic and would like some volunteers to document the event with motion picture technology so it can be shared across the vast Internets. The trick will be making sure there are no other Good Samaritans around who might beat Nate to the punch.

Please check out the survey posted at the top of www.getnateadate.com. You can help decide how we best use the money raised by the eBay auction to Get Nate a Date!

Thanks!
