I mean extremely normal things, like grocery shopping, getting coffee in the morning before work, things that would be considered at best poor date ideas by most of the women I know. Sure, it fits the definition of dating, technically.
Happily married man here. I go to dinner one on one with my guy friends. That doesn't mean taking my wife out to dinner is not a date? Doing 'dating' things with friends is totally normal. It's a 'date' when you're doing it with someone you might marry.
I don't take my platonic friends to the nice French steakhouse downtown, though. Is going to Waffle House because you're hungry a date, or is it going to Waffle House because you're hungry?
Because it sends the wrong message. You take a significant other there for special occasions, or you take a date there if you're really interested/really want to get laid.
Apparently, you can only eat steak with someone else if you want to get laid. Who knew? I've been propositioned so many times and didn't even know what was happening. Hope I didn't leave all my buddies hanging.
What message does that send? I don't see where anyone is propositioning anyone else.
> special occassions
You don't celebrate special occassions with friends? Why not? Honestly, this is the saddest thing about the US. Other than romantic things, no one cares to celebrate friendship.
