I have a different take on this.

If she is asking him to court her (not sure what the R was like, did MWest gave her much attention during the R?), then I would just court her. It's romantic and it is endearing. As a result, do not call her at the last minute for a quick coffee. That is just a slap in the face. Be a gentleman about it, and ask her at the beginning of the week so she has time to prepare, AND you will get more of a romantic build-up, and it is far more courteous. MUCH more pleasurable for a woman smile

If my H did that to me (call me if I wanted a quick coffee there and then and we were trying to get the R back on track), I'd turn him down immediately.
