Regardless of the answer here, someone using random capitalisation, random bold, words like yonks, and asking if there is even a point to visiting restaurants will certainly not be invited anyway!

Cafe at a park... or near the woods! Followed by a stroll walk if we're both into each other.. has worked for me in the past..

Can't beat a fish supper after a wee stroll, a lot of flirting and a kiss or 3

Pub for a lemonade.
Cafe for a coffee.
Restaurant for dinner.
Anyone in any predicament could do one of those options, at any time.
And do it in the first couple of weeks of chatting online/phone.
That way you can move on if you need to and stop wasting everyone's time.

A good 1st is going home happy and content, not sad, or angry or disappointed,.

I have found that going out and getting totally wasted together does give you a good perspective on the other person and you on them. It totally breaks the ice, can be real fun and you see each other totally raw. It is a good thing.

My issue with a first date is…. Actually getting around to meeting up🤷🏼‍♀️.
Last year and into this year “availability and timings” have been the main issue.
When I’m available he’s not and vice versa.
It’s so frustrating.
I’ve given up on several men because I felt he was wasting my time and his.
It’s gotten to the point where one of the first questions I now ask is “When are you available and how often can you meet up”.
Blunt I know but it’s better than wasting weeks TRYING to make arrangements for a first date 😬🙄🫤😕

I'm on the spectrum, so nothing where I'm forced to sit opposite and maintain eye contact or do small talk. That won't show me at my best.

I much prefer something where we're active such as a walk somewhere.
