How far in advance do you like to put meets in the diary? Particularly if for the first time?
Mrs doesn't always appreciate getting home from work to a quick turn around, she'd rather know by lunchtime at least.
Any thoughts? |

We can't do more than three weeks ahead because I only get my work rotas that far, but we try and aim for a week ahead as that gives Char time to schedule in rest time before and after a meet.

It depends if I'm recently showered, hair done etc I could meet within half an hour
But usually I probably plan them in the afternoon for that evening
I find anything more they tend to mess you about, change the time half a dozen times or want entertaining with wank chat & I'd rather be meeting than messaging |

My experiences are similar.
I'm happy to provisionally pencil something in but often it's s hassle. |

never plan over aweek ahead unless planning for a club ... and most meets are plucked out of the air or spontaneous .. havent dont long term meets in years as they were always the let down ..
easy for me as most are regular fun |

"Had a meet planned for around 3 weeks or so, it happened, fantastic evening. Can't plan anything much sooner than a week or 2 in advance, we have a young family and have to arrange childcare, and grandparents will start asking questions if suddenly we need childcare every weekend  
Second meet we'd been chatting for a few weeks, and had planned a social a week in advance. Be a few more weeks before things can progress, but the tension. Is unreal and will be well worth the wait when the time comes!!   "
Childcare is our problem. As you we cannot ask to often otherwise grandparents will be asking to many questions. |

We plan a date well in advance but usually leave arranging the actual meet until 45 days before. We find the longer between arranging and the actual meet the less likely it is to happen. |

We’ve found that planning more than a few days in advance generally leads to a loss of interest from a lot of single guys.
Set up a social for in a day or two and then a hotel meet a day or two after that.
Different strokes and all though. |
