I've heard if a guy reserves a day for weekend dates, a girl should be honored by it?

Sure, that prime chronological real estate :) However, it might mean he has no life anyway :) Just enjoy. Don't read too much into it.

I don't get this theory. A guy can say he has plans on the weekends and can't get together, yet he refuses to make weekday dates like on a Tuesday? I don't see a difference. What's the big deal on Fridays and Saturdays anyway?

You can stay out late on fridays and saturdays because there's no work.

There is some truth to it.

 

You have more time and can stsy up later.

 

This means you have a longer date.

 

For first time online meetings you have no idea thus you font want to ruin your day if this was a 4 hr date planned but it ended after 15 minutes.

 

You save weekends for 2nd or later on dates.

I wouldn't say honored. It just means he wants to spend more time and have longer dates.

Or he's busy monday, tuesday, wednesday and thursday nights (like I am).

 

This is definitely a case of over-analysis. Just go on the date and enjoy.

Yes, it is a must to have a date at weekend. He can see you during the week too, but a weekend date is a must, otherwise is a no go.

Didn't you ask this question before Bobbi?

I guess so.

Huh?

 

If a guy reserves a date over the weekend its when I am free not because I am honoured...

 

Bobbi7 you ask some really weird questions... Sounds to me like you are trying to be "perfect" and "princess" the ever accommodating girlfriend. I can tell you now that gets dull. Fast. Very fast.

 

Go out get some friends and hobbies and let guys work around your schedule.

What's the honor, exactly?

Well, when I was multi-dating like a champ, I'd only schedule the top "prospects" on a Friday or Saturday night. I wouldn't say honored but if the guy is an active multi-dater or has a big social life with friends, a Friday night or Saturday night date means he's prioritizing you over friends or other women.

 

And - as BluEyeL said - if you are dating a guy and only getting weekday nights and no weekend nights, it means you're not a priority for him (unless he has to work or take care of his kids on weekend nights).

It comes from PUA sites. The women who are high priority (ie. good chance of sex) you see on weekends so they can't LMR or ASD you with the old "have to get up for work" thing. The low priority women you see on weekdays when sex is unlikely anyway.

 

I'm not sure how women think that it's a good thing. When I was dating I would regularly have dates on both weekdays and weekends and never really thought about it. I preferred to put my attention to the actual date and the woman in question.

 

I met my partner on a wednesday night and our 2nd and 3rd dates were both on sundays.

:laugh:

 

Ahhh...

 

No.

 

I think one needs to look at how the man treats you and how he prioritizes you in other ways to determine how "honored" you should feel. In fact, I don't see why you should need to feel honored. Respect is foundational. It shouldn't be considered something special and certainly what day of the week a man chooses to take you out should have ZERO bearing on how "honored" you feel or not.

 

In fact it also depends on the man's life and situation. If a man has a busy work week and say I can't do the weekend for some reason and he chooses to still make time on a week day, I'd see that as him wanting to spend time with me so much so that he's still willing to fit me in. Whereas if he has a regular weekend where he's generally off work on weekends, him going out with me then may simply be convenient as he is free and available and needs a hot date for the weekend. But like I said earlier, what day of the week a man goes out with you says very little and you need to look at a lot of other factors to determine if you should feel "honored."

I think that we "should" only feel honored if we are recognized for something good we did or are ... not because some guy asked us out on a date no matter what day of the week it is!!

 

OTOH though most people have friends hobbies to do, if they'd rather do that stuff on their free time (weekends for most of us) than spend some of it with you, that might mean that you're not a big priority.

Ahh, haha, thanks Pete! I actually "get" all that, I was more wondering why OP feels that way. I suppose she may have answered it in the same way.

 

Personally, I think the whole thing is poppycock. Yeah, I guess if you're his Saturday night date, chances are he's probably not seeing anyone else. Though, I think there's something quite nice about a guy who wants to see you on a weeknight, too. He's busy and tired, but still makes time.

Speaking as a guy, I'll add that I make weekend plans if it's getting more serious with a woman. Weekends are when I use time for myself, to see friends, family, etc..So if I am choosing to see her above other things in my life that I also enjoy doing, then it communicates she's becoming a priority.

 

In the beginning though, any woman I'm dating gets weeknights only.

It's because what FF and Mrin said. I dunno about sex and I don't want to restart that debate, but if a guy doesn't schedule you on Friday and Saturday when most people have more free time (considering he's one of the people with regular work schedules) it means he has other priorities. Likely other women too.

 

So I wouldn't be honored but for me it becomes an expectation at least after the second date.

I actually think so too.

 

Especially if the guy is sociable and has lots of mates to party with. If he relegates a girl to weekdays, that would mean he'd rather spend his 'leisure weekend days' doing other things.

 

Of course, not every guy is made with the same mould - this is just based on my own experience.

 

I think it's more psychological...? Subconcious signals...

I actually got mad at a guy my cousin was dating because he'd only want to hangout during the week. I always told her "you're a Saturday night girl! Not some weekday hoe!"

 

I always schedule girls I'm only semi interested in on the weekdays. I'd rather have my weekend nights by myself than with someone I'm not really into.

 

This only applies if the guy is constantly refusing weekends though. Not every weekday date has bad connotations.

I haven't thought much about it. But come to think of it, almost all my dates happen on weekends, even early dates. I guess that's because I tend to date guys who work a lot, and concentrate their work hours during the week, as I do. I far prefer to go out on the weekends, as I'm much better-rested and ready for fun. A typical first meetup with a guy from online dating, for example, is Sunday afternoon coffee or lunch. Then if there's mutual interest, they almost always ask me out for a more traditional date on a Friday or Saturday night. If I meet the man the old-fashioned way, he usually asks me out for Friday or Saturday night for the first date. I can't remember a time when a guy tried to confine our dates to weeknights.
