    Good Monday to all!

    I need to cut down on the lemon meringue for the rest of the week!

    My question is a bit different.

    How long do you keep messaging every other day before giving up on ever meeting up in person in the current Covid climate and potential self-isolation and cautiousness?

    I think it depends on who is delaying the meeting and how long you've waited already 🤔

    So... is it still the rule that if a guy doesn't get in touch after 3 days you just forget he ever existed? I'm so out of practice and my friends are all married so I'm just out here guessing

    Tough to say. He may not want to be pushy. No harm in sending a "Hey, how are you?" text.

    Potentially. Gosh I'd forgotten how much work this all is (edited to add I haven't dated in 12 years). I'll message him tomorrow because this is 2021 and I liked him - seems a good enough reason (I just don't get the whole texting rules thing for adults). Thanks for the reply!

    I haven't dated in a while either and I am out of the loop as far as etiquette. I really like your "..and I like him" reason. Just do it, nothing to lose.

    Well that worked out well - we are going on a date next week 😊

    Nice! Good luck! I hope it goes well!

    Technically we've only been chatting for 2 weeks and I only finished my 10 days of self-isolation 4 days ago. But no attempts to organize a meeting have been made

    Thanks!

    If I were in your position I'd get the ball rolling and ask to make a plan.

    I had a first date/meet in person lined up for today but I am sick. I am worried that I might be contagious, or at very least feel like I look like a zombie. He is unconcerned though and still happy to meet up 🤷🏼‍♀️
