First date with someone I met online (advice) Update!!
Not sure if this belongs in this group but eh whatever lol I just need your opinion. So if anyone has seen my recent posts, you'd know who I'm talking about. If not, there's a guy I met on Bumble a few weeks ago and we're going out tonight to meet for the first time. He only has Wednesdays and Thursdays off so we thought today would be a good day. He's in the army and stationed about 45 min away from me but he suggested we meet at a city halfway. Which is like 30 min from me. I don't really mind it except I'm not that familiar with the area. Anyway we decided on having sushi, we just gotta find the place. And I thought we'd go see a movie after because we had talked about seeing a movie. But then last night he said it was alright, we just wouldn't have enough time to talk or we wouldn't be talking as much. So he said he'd find something for us to do after dinner. We talk on Snapchat so he started sending videos of him signing along to songs in his car then he suggested we jam out to music or something and do like karaoke. At the time I thought it would be fun but now I've had time to think about it and now I'm probably overthinking and stressing out too much. But I don't think I'd be comfortable being alone with him in his car or mine on the first date... Idk what do y'all think? Sure it'll give us more time to talk and hangout but I've only been talking to him for a few weeks and I still don't really know him all that well. I don't want to offend him or anything if I tell him I'd be uncomfortable with it. I mean, especially after I agreed to it. I just wouldn't know how to tell him. Or do y'all think it would be okay? I mean we'd have to find a place to park that's open long hours. Public place obviously but idk... And then we'd have to decide whether we wanna be in his car or mine. And I have a very old stereo so we can't connect our phones to it... I was kinda hoping we'd go to dinner, talk and eat for like what and hour maybe. Then if we choose a good movie time later, we can have another hour or hour and a half to talk some more and maybe even another 30-45 min before the movie. At least I'd be a bit more comfortable with that because I'm with him in public, around other people. I'm probably being a bit too paranoid right?
*Update*
Date didn't happen. I showered kinda did my hair and makeup, just needed to tough up. Went to pick up one of my sisters from school. She gets out at 4. So at 4 I left the house and as I was on my way, I messaged B telling him how bad traffic was (at a light). He messaged me as I was heading home with my sister but I was driving and didn't see it. I got home around 5 and saw he had asked how bad the traffic was and sent a photo of him in bed saying how exhausted he was. And I told him I had just gotten home. And he said we could do 7:30 movie instead since I just got home. And I told him I was nearly ready and I told him that I thought we were meeting at 6:30. Keep in mind that he wanted us to meet at a city half way, 30-40 min away from me. And he hadn't even told me which sushi place. So I'm asking him trying to clarify the time and place. He had left me on opened on my first message and didn't read the others. Until an hour later he said he just woke up and would be getting ready. And we decided on 7:30 and movie at 9:45 and which sushi place. I told him to let me know when he was heading out and he said will do. 30 min later he sent a photo that said shit I keep dozing off. And I said I thought you were getting ready already. If you're not up for it tell me. And he said he really really wants to but his body is so tired and he can't stay awake. He said he felt bad and I said, well I mean I can't force you. And he kept saying he wants to but was tired. And I told him he should have told me hours ago or sooner that he was too tired or something. I was already ready. And he said okay I'll get dressed really quick, meet you at 8. At this point I was so over it. I wasn't even excited anymore. And I told him I understand you're tired and not to worry bout it. And he said that he was about just about to get ready and that I probably won't wanna hangout with him after this. I didn't respond till like 20 min later and I said that if he was really excited about it he would have found the energy to get up and get ready and go. If he really wanted to meet me. I'm kinda hurt but I'll be fine. I deserve better
