So I gave a girl a ride home from my aspergers group, we all went to a Chinese food restaurant last night. She left her doggy bag of leftovers in my car and I live 30 minutes away from her. She is asking me to bring it to her today, the thing is I asked her out last night. She said ya but its a bit of an annoyance and inconvenience to bring that to her. Should I or shouldn't?

How are you going to date her if the distance is an annoyance and inconvenience?

You could always kill two birds with one stone and combine taking the food back with a chance to spend some time with her.

She obviously asked you to bring the leftovers to her as a way to see you again. No one cares about restaurant leftovers.

What are you getting at?

You went on a date with her last night and she wants you to drop off her stuff.

Did you ask her for a second date the last time you saw her?

If not, use today as your opportunity.

If you've already got a second date planned, then ask her while you're there if you guys are still going to hang on X day, and if she says yes, tell her you'll see her then.

Remain cool, calm, chill, relaxed and happy.

Just bring over the stuff!

I hope you put it in the Fridge :D

30 minutes is not a long drive (unless gas money is a concern).

If the Big Dig ain't blocking you (you said you live in Quincy), then it's even less of an excuse, the time factor.

But...do it anyway!

Whether you "should" or not is entirely up to you.

However, this looks like a test. A woman will leave something of hers with a man, and then ask him to return it. This is not so much for her to get her property back as it is to see if you are the kind of man who will do something for her despite the inconvenience to you.

Is she worth it for you to "pass the test"? Only you can decide.

It's not a test, Fnord. It's macguffin, a pretext.

She wants to see you again; take the food to her! Unless you're not interested, which is fair enough. But it's not about the food.

Same-same, in my opinion. The item left behind is always something inexpensive and easily replaceable - something that the woman can even live without.

I agree. If he wants to see her again, then this is the perfect excuse!

Do you care about this girl at all?
Then by all means, return her leftovers to her.
That would be the right thing to do if you want to see her again.
And bring her some flowers while you're at it.
