She is 26 and I am 31. I am somewhat good. Not great but good. I have a feeling she is not. She is attractive but kind of tough. So i think she can handle a loss. But if I beat her the first few games, should I purposely lose the last couple just to make her feel good? She has a good sense of humor so she might pick up on the fact that I am purposely making crappy shots.

Lose. It a sweet thing to do. I play my husband in ping-pong and he lets me win. he kicks everyone else's butts but lets me win it lets me know he love me. Don't be Mr. EGO like every other man out there.

you think too much... If you like each other, who wins at pool should not be an issue.
Ok imagine this little scenario. You meet a woman, get her phone number, go out with her. You wind up at the pool hall. Little do you know she is a professional pool player. What should that woman do? Would you not be interested in seeing her again just because she creamed you in pool???? If you like her, you like her!
Tell you what. If you are that big of a dufus about the pool thing, perhaps you should just take her for a stroll on the beach and kiss her in the moonlight. I guarantee that who is the better pool player will not be an issue.

I tink a man should give it all hes got. I know when me and my man play pool I dont want him to ease up. Ehh, it is your second date with her... Id say if you can win the first one to get the feel of how good she is, if she doesnt mind losing then dont worry about making her look too good. You can save some of your pride

Well, you don't want her to think you're a wimpy man. But it might be a nice gesture and if she is that bad for at least one game you can make it obvious that you're letting her win. But if you're so good and she's not, why not teach her how to play?

Just play to the best of your ability and let her do the same thing. Treat her like an equal.

Put up some effort and don't be too obvious because when my ex and i were playing a game and he kinda let me win I got angry becasue I didn't want him to let me win I would have atleasted wanted him to put up a game. YOu could win the forst one and then let her win and take turns.

Yes give her the sense that you are capable of taking a lose yourself.Don't be cocky that you have to win at everything.She may be tough,but she is still a woman.

You should never ever ever let a girl beat you in pool, this is a cardinal life sin for a man. You should be ashamed for even considering it!

Keep the game close, but still win. If she cant handle losing shes a wimp.

no just play normal. if you win then tell her that you will teach her so that she don't think your a player. if you let her win and then she knows she ant good than she is going to think all you want is in her pants no offence but thats the way my girl would see it to.
