I’m no golden rule and I assure you, coffee date is on my profile. 1-2 dates a week. I’ve also had coffee… then some lunch… then dinner. All about connecting and not being a dumbass. No one wants to be trapped on a date that isn’t working, coffee or even just breakfast, is the best option.
I’ve always done coffee for first dates, from dating apps, or otherwise. It’s a great, relaxed atmosphere for getting to know someone. You can go for a walk, or chill in the cafe, then, if things are going well, and you both want to go further, you can get a meal after. The last woman I did this with, five years ago, is now my fiancée
What do you mean privately? I said do get into the restaurant. Meet at a mall, on a bench, in front of a store. If they appear, good, have a 5 minutes conversation and go to the restaurant.
I’m from the time of mIRC, where I met a few girls, including the one who has been my wife for the past 22 years.
Spoken like someone who isn’t afraid of potential dates. Lol.
No way I’m meeting privately on a first date with someone I don’t know. I’d rather be stood up in the restaurant.
I’d say, do coffee. Cheaper, and easier to leave when any party decides the date is over.
coffee instead of a free dinner? put that on your profile and see how many hits you get. I’ll give you a hint, it starts with a decimal place.
If you’re not getting a date, I guarantee you, the word “coffee” in your profile is not the reason.
Such a sad state of dating. You think it would start with interest in the person rather than interest in a meal.
bitches be hungry

Women worth dating tend to find coffee much more appealing as a first date than an expensive meal.
Maybe you just have a hard time identifying the women worth dating? Many people do.
They’re also far less likely to be on an app
Exactly. Coffee, ice cream, or something like that. Perfect first date.
You can just meet outside the restaurant.
You just don’t go in before you meet them outside the front door.
Hell, it can even be a chivalry test to see if he holds the door for you.
Bugger that, I’m not loitering outside the door like that, I’d rather be inside.
Same, depending on the restaurant.
I don’t tend to “test” the people I date.
But I don’t have an issue meeting either way, so long as it’s communicated. I mean… meeting outside the door is still meeting at the restaurant.
