Dumb question: what is a play date? What do you usually do at those?

Two or more kids play together. Parents coordinate, supervise, facilitate, and if needed, play with the kids as well. Alternately, it gives the chance for a parent to step back and relax and have the kid play with another kid!

Depends on yours and the other kid’s parents comfort level. Send them a message and ask what they’d be comfortable with, and offer to host, if you’re good too. Keep fun snacks at the ready so the other kid has a good experience of playing with yours, and is motivated to come back. Also try to be hands off - kids tend to gravitate to parents if they are often nearby.
I have 3 kids, and my wife is a master at getting play dates set up. I’ve been able to build some really good friendships with other adults, which is so hard to do.

The first play date, we always stick around nearby to help if they have concerns. After, we drop off and do our own thing. The host parent is accountable :)

Need advice. Very Shy guy and girl, met a while back for a side hustle both like each other a LOT, relationship has progressed in other areas but not in the physical realm, primarily because neither officially asked the other out. Guy is a very rough around edges, asked for a date by saying ‘anytime you need breakfast or lunch, let me know’. I am an independent gal and didn’t like the way it came across. I really want to take this forward but am out of ideas on how to make a date happen.

No, but FR let's talk about being open and accepted in the workplace? How did you do that? How (un) friendly is the work environment?

I went through my gf’s phone and found out she had a crush on my best friend when we first started dating (over a year ago). I suspected this at first but it hurts to have it confirmed and see her telling her friends about him. I’m not sure how I should feel since I went out of line to look through her phone.
