palmsand Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) I have a first date set for 12:30 on Tuesday. It has been difficult figuring out a time between my school schedule and her work. I am now thinking about moving the time to earlier, giving us much more time to talk. Thinking 10:30, trying to avoid lunch time as this is just coffee. If I keep the 12:30 time, we will only have about 45 minutes before I need to leave to drive 100 miles to school, and if there is traffic I will be late and screwed. As my last date lasted three hours, I feel like this is not long enough. On the other hand, I proposed the time and feel like I should stick to it. You know, showing that I am decisive and confident and such. Aware I'm probably over-thinking this. Do you think there would be any downside to moving the time earlier, assuming she is good with it?

smackie9 Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Just ask her....and explain that you forgot about the traffic you are going to encounter if you meet at the original time. It would be better to set a different time rather than cancelling all together right? 1
Author palmsand Posted January 22, 2017 Author Posted January 22, 2017 Well I'm not sure about the traffic, it's kind of a gamble. Best case scenario we have 45 minutes and I get to school on time. I wouldn't dream of canceling, just set something up that gives us more time.

Author palmsand Posted January 22, 2017 Author Posted January 22, 2017 No that's what I was thinking of telling her. "With traffic, I'm not sure how long it could take getting to class later. Would you be ok meeting earlier, say 10:30?" 1
Miss Spider Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Explain to her the situation. It should be fine! I've had guys move dates earlier because they wanted more time to talk. I think it's sweet. 1

I've had guys move dates earlier because they wanted more time to talk. I think it's sweet. Thanks, that's good to hear. Do you guys think interfering with lunch could be a problem? If we met at 10:30 I'm sure lunchtime would be the end of the date. Ideally I would say 11:30, then we would have an hour and a half to talk, but that would throw her lunch off. I just don't want to come off as expecting to be the priority over any other plans she may have. Edited January 22, 2017 by palmsand
smackie9 Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 You are going to have to work something out with her.....she may suggest a time that would be acceptable to her....
