Omghunny Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 I met this guy off tinder and we had our first date last week. We're both pretty into each other and both enjoyed the first date. He messaged me the next day and we'be been texting ever since. He wanted to see me this weekend if it was possible, so we're meeting again this Sunday. He said he wanted to go to the beach as well as inviting his friends if I'm okay with that, and then he plans on taking me to the aquarium. So here are my questions: 1) I'm fine with meeting his friends but, is it too soon? 2) Why would he want me to meet his friends already? (Personally I wouldn't introduce my friends until I know where me and the other stands) 3) Is this a step forward for a relationship or could this break a potential?
mortensorchid Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 This is a good step in the right direction, he wants you to meet his friends. I'd go for it. If you're so many weeks in and you still haven't met any of his friends, or know any of them by name even (maybe he mentions them in conversation or stories), that's a bad sign. And also good that he's having you meet friends first rather than the other way around.
d0nnivain Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 You are over thinking this. He is not integrating you into his life. He's killing 3 birds with 1 stone. He wants to go to the beach. He wants to spend time with you. He wants to spend time with his friends. There are only so many hours in a weekend. To do all 3 they have to be together. 2
amaysngrace Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 I'd bring a friend along with you and meet up there. Don't be alone in a car full of guys you barely know. 1
caveman621 Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 I think it's fine. He wants to go to the beach. He wants to see his friends. He wants to see you. So having all three is not an issue, I think. What if he said he was invited to a party and wanted to invite you to go with him? I don't think that would sound odd, right? It's pretty much the same thing. Just insert beach for party. Meeting his friends doesn't mean you're committing to a LTR. 2
Gaeta Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 Meeting friends isn't a big deal. Meeting his mother is.
J21 Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 Some people dont think meeting friends is a big deal, some people do. I think you guys are one of each. Don't over think it, it's still new to gauge anything. I've met friends of a new date pretty soon and it turned out to be a big nothing at the end and vice versa.
