Asker outers- make reservations. I’m tired of going to dinner or drinks and finding out my date’s plan is winging it and the place doesn’t have space. Make a reservation!! It takes one min!!

I see why there's a herd of a certain group of single people and it's ever growing (that group seems to never be satisfied with anything) but I guess being alone with nothing is better than getting 80% of what you want for that group

Context is important here, if it’s a dinner date definitely but for drinks? No.

It sounds like you should date another producer.

Do you ask them if they’ve made reservations before going out?

Failing to plan is planning to fail so I get your frustration.

Depends on the city. If you in NYC it’s not common to get reservations for dinner

Haven’t done the dating thing in a while so need advice! (F here) Met a guy at a party on Sat, followed each other on insta, then I dm’ed him my number saying “lmk if you want to get drinks sometime”. He then texts me and says something along the lines of “yeah let’s do it” but doesn’t offer any concrete plan. Does this mean he’s not super into it? Or am I overreacting and I should initiate the plan? I initiated the insta follow and the dm so I feel like it’s his turn…?

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated.

Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?
