We'll have lunch together soon - how to behave?

  • Thread starter Thread starter powerflow

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a person's feelings and uncertainties regarding a budding relationship with a girl they met at university. After a successful first lunch date, the individual is excited but anxious about their expectations and the potential for being friend-zoned, especially since the girl took a month to respond to their invitation for a second date. They express a desire to deepen the connection by suggesting outings outside of the university setting, such as visiting art exhibitions or going for drinks, but are unsure if it's too early to propose this. Forum members advise on the importance of clear communication and suggest exchanging phone numbers to facilitate quicker responses. Ultimately, the individual is encouraged to express their interest more directly while remaining patient and observant of the girl's signals.

you should do what you feel in your heart! BUT, be observant of how the other person responds! if you are super nice to her and she keeps ignoring you, then you can see that she's not feeling the same way as you, so you should not keep pushing her to feel the same way, because people can't be changed like that.

oh and if its one of your first dates, then sit face to face! cos then you can see each other better! and it is more comfortable cos you don't have to keep turning your head to look at each other. it also depends on where you are of course- if you are in a house watching tv then you would sit next to each other on a sofa! but if its been a few dates and you are both comfortable with each other and you are in like a bar with those long sofas, or in a cinema, then you sit next to her and then you can put your arm around her!

:( I feel a bit saddened reading some of these posts. You guys make girls sound like horrible bitchy horny objects to be conqurered! do all guys think like this? I don't think so!

I think everyone should just be themselves and do what makes them happy, you are bound to find someone who likes you for who you are! and if you are putting on an act to get the girl you want, then it won't last because you can't act for the rest of your life! and if you do, then it will mess you up psychologically!

There are girls of all kinds in the world, just get yourself out there, meet new people, and soon you will find a perfect female equivalent/match for you!

and most importantly, be open minded about her! all too often people only see what they want to see and what is not actually there - its the most basic thing about science! Discover! not assume you know everything! So if guys keep thinking all girls are horrible/desperate/bitchy/brainless and need a man to control them etc... then that's the only girls you will meet because that's how you will see them, even if they are not like that!

oi! that's uncalled for! I'm not convinced you are suited to work in the healthcare industry with an attitude like that! You shoulding be trying to help people not put them down! it ain't easy being a 17 year old you know!

I am referring to the banned users who have their usernames crossed out. I think some come back pretending to be a girl but sooner or later get banned again

OK, youtube posts: first find the video on youtube. Copy the last part of the youtube address, the part after the = sign. Then come back to PF and start your post. See the TV button circled in red here...

Click that.

Paste that part of the youtube address between the tags, and you're set.

I now return you to "We'll have lunch together soon - how to behave?" already in progress.

Cron develops a new science nowadays, "theoretical womanizing".
