Firstly I know this isn't really the place to ask advice on relationships as its more of a swinging/sex site with plenty of jokes in between. Also I thought there's no harm in asking so here I am. Anyway my question is for the ladies mainly and it is:
How can you tell if a guy is asking you out on a date compared with asking you out as mate?
Secondly is one is for everyone and its how long after a relationship has ended should you wait before jumping into another one as even though you're officially single. Surely if you jump straight in it may be a rebound thing, even if you don't think it at the time? |

If a male friend says: got a spare ticket to footy, do ya fancy it? Mate. If a male friend gets tongue tied, fidgets and asks if he could take me to dinner: date.
We're all individuals: what works for me won't for you. Personally I avoid like the plague any profile with "just out of a relationship". Experience has taught me it'll be a shit meet, even though it will be over coffee! |

"12 months between relationships is a good guide, 2 days between sex dates
"
What about if they are good/long term acquaintances?
Basically I know someone who came out of a relationship about 2 weeks back and they are entering another one. |

healing takes tim,e and it is so easy to transfer the past relationship ahead to the new one, of course different for everyone, as are reasons for breaking up. |

Dating... Simple. ASK!
As for timeline to dating again after a failed relationship... There is NO right or wrong time, It's when it feels right for both involved! |

"Dating... Simple. ASK!

So if I came up to you and said "fancy coming for a drink tonight"? That sound like an invite as a mate or romantically? How can you tell the difference?

If you were my mate already I'd probably just think you were asking as a mate. But then I've had friends that have progressed naturally into dating before when it just felt right for us both. |

I must admit that I have never thought that I was being asked on a date when a mate has asked me to the pub. I'm failing to see why you would jump to that conclusion.

If he says ...... Fancy going on a date? its a date.
If he says ...... I'm attracted to you-love to chat and see how we get on. it's a date.
If he says - Jesus ..... I'd love to knock a slice of you. Date.
If he says ..... I'm bored. Let's shoot down the pub you can get me a pint. Mate. |

Don't ask amibiguous questions.
If you want a date say....... I'd like to TAKE you for a few drinks tonight. ( smile and look a bit coy like you don't want to be rejected. It doesn't matter if you are an arrogant git just look like you're about to be crushed with a no )
If you want a mate say ....... Fancy a bevvy tonight. I'm bored of being stuck in. If not I'll go for one on me own then read. ( body language and face sort of indifferent and shruggy ) |
