I usually ask at the end of the date if it went well. Something like ‘I would love to see you again - can we do X on X day?’

I usually ask if they want to see each other again during the first date

Ask during the date. Make the ask activity/interest based ie “there’s a new coffee roaster that opened that has thee best dark roast. I usually go there after the gym on Saturday mornings. I can give you a tour Saturday if you want.” Vs “I want to see you again. How’s next Friday? “.

Women love to see that you have a life and interests that you are open to including them in. Activity/interest based requests are less threatening as it takes the focus off of her and puts it on the experience/activity.

If he isn’t, you’ll be confused.”

I say this as a man.

Either try to find out if they are interested in seeing you again at the end of the date to get a first hint and if there isn’t much there to get a response of or the girl wants to think about it, then definitely within the next 2 days.

I’m maxing out the 6th year for H1b and my I-140 just got approved. 1 month ago, my employer has filed a h1b extension but it is based on the approved PERM instead of the 140, and only asked for one-year extension. In that case, after 6 months (180 days i140 rule to avoid employer’s revoke), will I be able to switch employers even though the renewed H1b gonna expire soon at that time?

At my uncles wedding in Madrid I remember lying down on the grass in the courtyard after their first dance and crying, my Dad came and saw me, laid down in his suit beside me and asked what was wrong.

“I know my boyfriend wouldn’t dance with me like that at our wedding”

And we just lay there as I cried, and then got up. Had a drink.

Said boyfriend left years ago, and now I have a wonderful man who just asked me what type of dance lessons I want for our wedding next year.

Don’t give up.

Started talking to this guy through group a group telegram and one day he offered to pay for my lunch as I had helped him out with something.

The other guy just says he likes paying for my stuff and there’s no agenda. Is this a little weird?

I went on a “date” recently. I paid for the tab as they were going to the bathroom. As we were leaving they said “thanks for lunch” — I was hoping they’d at least ask to Venmo me half as a kind gesture. Following lunch we grabbed dessert. I was hoping they’d offer to cover dessert since I covered lunch but it didn’t happen.

I am fine w/ paying but I was hoping the gesture would at least be presented… am I crazy?
