Taking a girl out on a date who chooses to eat vego, pretty sure she doesn’t mind that I eat meat. But the option is to share dishes, which I prefer doing or get separate and I eat meat options.
Does it make sense to eat vego for the night? Why/why not?
I met a girl at a bar with a few work mates, there were 4 of us. She was the only girl, and I only knew 1 guy there. There was another guy from work hitting on her, but as soon as I got her attention, there was definitely chemistry and tension. A lot of shoulder touching and eye contact, she asked a lot of questions etc. when they went to the bathroom I asked for her insta and within a day or two, secured a first date.
Bear in mind, I just got out of an 8year relo (I’m 30, girl is 23) and haven’t gone on a date in ages. When it came to questions about my ex, I felt like I gave off a bit of uncertain/nervous energy. Also just in general, I kinda undersell myself a bit despite having a pretty interesting life, cuz I’m worried of sounding arrogant, etc (lame, i know).
Despite this she still asked a lot of questions, and during the date was checking her watch. I asked her if she needed to go home, and explained that she can stay out but her last train is early, so I offered to drive her and she agreed.
During this period I kinda was in my own world in the car listening/vibing to music she didn’t like which I feel kinda turned her off.
Anyways I asked her on a 2nd date and she pretty much told me she’ll think about it. I told her to tell me straight cuz I want to know, and she said she enjoys talking to me but she doesn’t wanna rush into anything cuz she thinks it’s been too recent since my ex, and she’s happy to keep talking as friends.
I thanked her for letting me know and continued our convo as normal.
So basically, I got into the friend zone after a good start into a bad first date.
How do I fix this? We message once a day and just reply to each others messages and ask about random crap during the day
