I’ve accidentally gone on two dates in the past few months lol I struggle to read the room so I need ”lets hang out” to become “I’d like to go on a date with you” if it is, in fact, a date.
This was a repeated motif in my 20s. and always without fail, i figured it out halfway through the date. and i’d ask… “wait, is this a flirty thing? Are we on a date??” So awkward and NOT transparent. let’s be real and clear y’all
‘Let’s hang out’ sends me into a spiral of infinite possibilities
Try: ‘let’s get a martini’ or ‘let’s go see some animals’ or something cute you’ve been wanting to do
Don’t overthink it!
As a chronic planner who needs to have things laid out AT LEAST a week beforehand, sometimes you need to let go of scheduling and say yes to going out and hanging with friends.
I always check them out And you should too! Most are sweet and beautiful and it’s such a nice way to remember someone. Here’s one I found about a guy who saved a duck. we love you Duckbill.
