How many of y'all ACTUALLY wash your hands before eating when dining out? I do 100% of the time. If you're out on a date and she doesn't wash their hands before eating, does she lose points?
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I think most people don't even bother washing their hands before they eat.Maximus Rex said:How many of y'all ACTUALLY wash your hands before eating when dining out? I do 100% of the time. If you're out on a date and she doesn't wash their hands before eating, does she lose points?
Sounds like you don't have very many dates if you are that unobservant.dasein said:If it's something I'm going to touch with my hands, 100%. If it's going to be purely silverware, eh 50%. To be honest, I don't even pay attention whether women wash their hands or not.

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
