Topic: Is this a date? | |
---|---|
So I'm meeting my ex tonight but this time we're going out to dinner. Something we didn't get around to doing last time. I know we're not going there but I can't help but think this might sound like a date. I guess I am agreeing to meet him at this restaurant tonight. Last time we saw each other it was so short, but it was fun, you know, no pressure at least of getting dolled up or what have when you go out in public.
But I find myself getting ready for it as I would a date. Is this weird? |

Hope you by the time you read these you had a good time. |

Yeah, sorta unconfronted feelings I had for him a while back that he never knew about. |

no because it is a date ^ This No matter what you may think of it as, it is still honestly a date. |

Hope you by the time you read these you had a good time. This is what I initially thought. Maybe its just my nerves of going out and looking my best in public. Thanks! Should be later on tonight... |

Sounds like you are confused, do you have a thing for him??? Unfortunately yes but we agreed to be friends for now since he's going through some weird times in his life. But I'm happy he's able to at least hang out. |

what is weird about getting ready for a date as if it were a date? Because he's an ex, but currently a friend that I still have some feelings for. |

You already know my feelings on this....
Got $20 that says you will be crying over this in less than a year.... Is it a "Date"? You tell us. A "Date"...bears the possibility of sex. If there is no possibility of sex...you are just hanging out. You going on a date or are you going to hang out with a friend? |

I see. It's understandable to feel a bit weird/nervous about that, but if you are both clear on what the relationship and boundaries are, and are able to accept and respect it, I don't see why there should be any issues.

His son is with the babysitter and he's getting out of the house for once. I don't plan on having sex tonight so scratch that one off the list of expectations. |

I'm making it more of an issue I guess with my behavior. I do want to look really nice. I normally wouldn't care if I'm going out with friends, just wear something casual, but cool too. I just hope I don't snap in front of him and start confessing everything. |
