I really took Mark Manson's Models to heart where he said dates should include a couple setting changes, an activity, etc. cause it builds a greater sense of togetherness and makes it feel like you've spend more time with this person than you really have.

So I usually take a girl to a group dancing lesson or to mini golf, then drinks/ice cream and it almost always goes super well. Every once in a while a girl will push back and say lets just do drinks, that they don't want to commit to a longer date. It is even them asking for the date so its not like they are not interested.

It kind of rubs me wrong when they do this and I often just don't go. Feels like they are having a glass half empty attitude that they don't want to "commit" to a potentially longer date.

But maybe I have the wrong outlook on this, what do yall think?
