Moving on to the bright side Part 11

[Ginger1]

Isn't "I would love to get to know you better, when are you free to get a coffee or a drink" conveying interest?

Yes it is. This is absolutely acceptable. I would think the other person is interested, not playing games and is being considerate of my schedule. Just not "I'm taking you for a drink" and not asking me when. And if the other person doesn't respond to that request, then you can tell they aren't interested and it's time to move on.

J, passing what "tests"? I think you are overthinking it way too much. It's just about asking a woman out and treating her with respect to get to know eachother. And if she ignores your question of when she would like to go out, you will know she is not genuinely interested and then move on to the next. I also think you are trying to get these women to pass too many tests. You want them to do all this pursuing and showing interest, having them set the dates before you even meet. That's a tall order.





I am not trying to be a b!tch. I am a divorced mother and full-time career woman in the age range of which you are dating who has also been thrown back into this abyss. I am self-sufficient and independent, treat the men I date as I would like to be treated and really appreciate a man who has a level of respect for that.

You should absolutely maintain your level of self worth and the woman you date should have a level of self worth too. And a woman who has self-worth doesn't let some guy just leave the ball in her court because she's lucky to have a date with him. She accepts an invitation to a man who asks her out properly and doesn't play games. Because there is no time for these silly dating games when you are a woman raising children on her own and trying to hold down a career and get the bills paid. Just as a guy in the same position has no time for that either.
