ParticipantActually, I would almost rather wear a sundress on a Sunday date and wear the jeans/top combo on a Friday/Saturday.

ParticipantSundress is totally acceptable for a Sunday date.

ParticipantKate’s right about sitting at the bar. I love sitting at the bar. In fact, I think guy is impressed when we walk into a place and I say let’s just sit at the bar. I’ll ask him out.
Also, I second the sandals or wedges. Basically, just listen to Kate, always.

ParticipantI echo others. If it’s a day date, I usually wear a fun skirt or sundress. If it’s an evening date, jeans and a nice top. If it’s after work, work clothes…. but I make sure I look extra good that day. I also echo others in that’s it best just to think of this as a potential friend as opposed to someone you want to date. It takes a little pressure off and you can decide if you actually like him as a person. I will say, I get ridiculously nervous before dates. Since dating this current dude, I’ve lost a couple pounds. Nervous stomach. Can’t help it.
Date went well last night. I think we’re both swamped this weekend and I’m out of town next weekend. I also have appointments after work next week, but they’re all be done by 7:30. I’m thinking I might, for the first time, extend the invite…. he’s done all the inviting thus far. It’s ok to do that, right?
Eve, when’s the date and what are you doing?

ParticipantI’m supposed to settle my debt from the bet tonight, but he’s giving me the option to defer since I’ve had a shitty week at work. Like, working 12 plus hour day. Last night was here 14.5. So, probably dinner and drinks outside somewhere downtown, as he lives right next to the office.
Yes. DELETE! Totally his loss. What a lame-o.
Remind me what you two are doing this weekend?!?

ParticipantDate six tonight folks. I think it’s date six. Or is it five? I’ve already lost track. But I think it’s 6.

ParticipantLoo, that does sound awesome!
Ver, I second Kate’s idea.
As far as numbers go, I agree with the others and only do so once a date is planned and nearing.

ParticipantTrue, true. Thanks Kate and Stone. I’ll see how the dating progresses in the next month or so. I think it’s too early to broach the subject.
Wednesday is date 6! I’m settling our bet on said date.
I’m also guessing I need to initiate an outing soon, because he’s done the heavy lifting so far. I’ve been told previously that I’m a hard one to read and I’m not very open about feelings. Basically because it’s uncomfortable for me. So, I’m trying to step outside my comfort zone a bit and giving a little more then usual.

ParticipantOh, it’s WAY too soon for that kind of conversation. We’ll see how it goes in the next month or so.
I do know he’s not on any dating web sites. Nor am I. So unless it’s a set up or meet a girl out kind of thing, and I guess same goes for me, then well, IDK.
On Saturday’s dates, we did talk about us flirting at the the last holiday party… he said he was interested before that 🙂

ParticipantStone – the picnic date sounds awesome. How adorable!!!!
So, Sunday at brunch, my friends said this guy and I are dating. From what I described, are we dating? IDK know the lingo or how all of this shit works anymore. I don’t like labels. I also don’t care for serious discussions. All past relationships just happen naturally… so I think I’m going to stick with the one date a time thing I have going on and not worry about the rest.
I’m like 98.4% sure he’s not “dating” anyone else or even trying to “date” anyone else.

ParticipantSo… last Sunday (not yesterday, the one prior), our pool date lasted all afternoon, evening, and then I spent the night… We had another date Wednesday (no sleepovers) and Saturday happened, which was an evening date that started with a couple beers at a local brewery, next up was dinner, then we walked to a dive bar, which was close to my apartment, for one last drink and then he came over to my place and of course spent the night. Sex was had, a couple times. We stayed in bed until nearly 11:00 on Sunday. It was quite nice I was supposed to be at brunch with friends at noon. I didn’t get there until 12:30, but it was ok because we didn’t have reservations and the wait was an hour. Oh… and he’s a cuddler. Like all night kind of thing. I’m usually not. At all. But I kind of like it with him. He’s good at it. Anyway, another date Wednesday.

Participanthfantoda – I agree with LadyE in that you definitely could have counter offered and suggested a place that was more in the middle, or a little more convenient for you. I also don’t think a few messages in is too soon. Honestly, I would rather get the meeting over with then drag it out. I guess I’m impatient that way.
Ver – I’m sorry the ham never got back to you, but I think it’s clear that it’s time to kind of forget him. Good luck with the tinder teacher. You just never know!!! I always try to keep an open mind.
Kare – that’s creepy. I guess I don’t know how snapchat works. Did you have to add or accept him or something?
