Alright, I'm off to Starbucks to do some writing and carry out my secret mission.

Also, I have been awake over 14 hours now; would like to make it another 11-12. Tips are welcome.

Caffeine

Sounds like you are going to the right place ;)

Today is my day for fixing the sleep schedule as well so I will be drinking a lot of coffee,
 
in 28 hours from now i will be back in work.

but i could fall asleep now, maybe just a little nap and lots of wine when i do wake up will help.
 
Caffeine or cocaine, eh? And I bet I can get either of them at this particular Starbucks, what with its proximity to campus.

Duly noted...

also dating related question to the guys of Real GAF:

so pls tell me: isn't inviting a girl to a sauna like...a terrible & super obvious date idea, considering the lack of clothing? or would you say it's a normal move to you?

I've never asked a girl out and then picked a sauna. That'd be a new one.

I suppose it'll depend on the person's cultural background and whether saunas are a regular thing for him.

Bold. Creative and bold.

that is so strange. Points to the dude for creativity though!

Thats super weird. Like how is a sauna a date o_O

That idea wouldn't even have crossed my mind to be honest.
thanks, this is supporting the initial idea I had about this.

Maybe it's a german thing?
it's not haha^^ Germans are usually very reserved with this kinda stuff on dates. plus he isn't even German.

hmm I don't really think it has any cultural background to him

Bold. Creative and bold.

a bit too bold for my tastes. but yeah I guess it's something new at least^^'

He just wants to get you into that sauna, I guess. Bring mace.

Not for the first couple of weeks of dating. After that though, it's not such a bad idea I think, I haven't done it myself but if it is like a spa thing, sauna, steam room, swimming pool jaccuzzi and massages in a place thats not terribly busy. You get to relax, chill and shoot the shit with each other. Not only that but I think in an atmosphere with that if you are comfortable together it'd be a good place to have some solid conversation with each other, more so than trying to say "hes trying to see me close to naked". I think netflix and chill is much more obnoxiously in the latter camp, since it's now become with synonymous with trying to get laid. Not saying sauna & spa wouldn't increase sexual tension given the circumstance, but sexual tension done right is good.

Anyway, the gods of listened, groceries arrived 90 mins early! advocados are smaller than I imagined, pretty disappointed with that.
 
Probably wanted to use the classic sauna line.

haha oh god, this is probably his inspiration.

oh I guess I'll pass on that entirely.

oh yeah in a relationship (or after some more time has passed) it's something different. but I only saw this guy like two times...both within one week too. seems like he's in a real hurry^^

If this was a first date/early date, the suggestion would weird me out. I'd assume the dude wants my clothes off and to leer at me. Even if that wasn't the case, it's an odd choice if you want to get to know a person. Just sounds awkward all around.

well just decline and ask to do something else, see his reaction, if he seems annoyed about that then there you go, intentions revealed.

thanks! these were my exact thoughts too

man guys are so lame. hahahha. fuckin sauna date on date 3.

see. :(

I already did and he agreed. but on the basis of all this I'm not really interested in seeing him at all anymore I guess. even on "normal" dates he was quite forward. meh.

Drink plenty of water. Take a walk. Think about our cosmic insignificance.

You know, standard stuff.
 
What do you even do at a Sauna in a date like fashion?

Like, I get taking your current GF to a spa for a day, that's an awesome time.

But a sauna for a first date? "Hey, wanna sit around without clothes and get sweaty but not in a sexy way?"

Maybe I just don't get saunas.

Well, being that I currently live in Florida, I'd question the wisdom of any man who thought a sauna was a good idea here regardless.

As a date, though? Especially when it concerns a woman I hardly know?

Yeah, no, dude's probably just thinking he's clever for cultivating an ingenuous method of inconspicuously urging you to take clothing off. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'd be surprised if I were.

Above all else, it seems like a terrible method of getting to know a person. I'd much rather ask a woman to a coffee shop or a park or something. Somewhere we can speak, not... bathe...

Hot tip:

Go to sleep.

what the heck

You probably listed the top three things in my life, yeah.
 
What are you guys talking about? Saunas are a great first date. I invite girls to one so when I meet them there I can open with "Saun-nice to see ya." Best date for the rest of the day.




I don't know why I'm single.

you guys are right though... I should probably start asking people for cheese maybe that way I will finally meet a decent man.

Don't forget to ask for tweezers first.

Not least of which because I wish I had a do-over where I had those too.

I'm not going to judge the guy, because I honestly don't know how he acted or who he is as a person to say for sure. So many factors. Like if he is inexperienced at dating then it doesn't define him as a person, he might also be acting out of character, which is the biggest problem I see guys have. They don't just act like themselves, and it's very easy to do.

They do what they think the girl would like, rather than what their first original ideas where. Not that means anything about you, but theres two camps of girls when it comes to that.

Some girls like wild spontaneous ideas that don't seem date normal, generally quite like things to move quickly. And other girls who like to go at a slow pace. My ex gf now, we went pretty quick off the bat, don't think she was into going that fast. I just got so wrapped up in being excited about it, it never bothered me. Relationship lasted half a year. Then the first girl I dated after it ended I took things more slowly. Didn't kiss until the 3rd date after spending a long nice day out at sushi, walks on the beach and visiting city spots at 4am when noone was around. It was very chill, and I thought I was doing good. No subsequent dates after that because that was the opposite of what she wanted. It's not her fault, no two girls are the same and a lot of guys are trying fit a nonexistent mould rather than just be themselves. I was left scratching my head, like u fukken w0t.

He could be an pushy ass, but thats only an assumption at this point. You can never really know for sure. But if you've lost attraction to him, then so be it, it's not a big deal anyway.

Good post, yo. I can't help but agree with it, or at least the gist of it.

you're right...not every guy is a greedy sex-monster right off the bat, it all depends on the character and the situation etc. ...+I don't even blame people who just want quick sex, I get that, it's just usually not for me. that being said I even told him that things were way too fast for me and just left it there. that was before the sauna incident so I kinda feel like I was talking to a brick wall or something at the time haha. that's certainly not the kind of slowing down he promised. other stuff happened too that just make him come off as really needy, that's a turn off in itself :l I don't even think he's a bad guy, but like you said if I already lost interest because of his actions it doesnt matter anyway.
just thinking of a way to break it to him now @_@

I ain't taking you to no sauna, don't blame me

not blaming you, but I think we had a brief conversation here last time about how men were disposable or not. not RPG men of course, we agreed on that!

"Things are moving too fast.." "Let's go to the sauna."

Also I think most guys are greedy sexy monsters, some just have more taste and impulse control than others.

To be fair to sauna guy, I've never been great at planning dates so I can't really judge.

if we're being serious this is kind of my line of thought, but I'm a ball buster + I naturally talk down other guys to women :D
 
yeah RPG/Morrowind men are cool imo

women who spell words backwards are cool too

I think that sums up this page's worth of posters, so I've covered all ground, we're all cool

I'm still awake, but I'm beginning to omit punctuation, rarely a good sign
