I have seen many of you guys using the 'wine line', but as someone who does not drink i am struggling to come up with an alternative to wine as a suggestion. Did any of you have to deal with this at some point?
Hey bud, I actually don't drink myself and this has been a struggle. I still suggest meeting for a drink all the time when it's a public date... "let's grab a drink and see if this spark translates...". If you're in recovery and that isn't an appealing option, I would go with coffee instead. Straight to the house dates become more difficult. I go with dinner options "do you like sushi..." but I'm open to other suggestions as a dinner commitment is a bit much for a first date.
yhhh, when looking to hookup food might send mix signals but i will give it a go. Thank you
Im straight edge, so I'm trying to figure this out too. I'm going to try to use this set up.
"Do you like wine?"
"Let's vibe over drinks on my romantic patio"
You never say you drink alcohol, but you're letting her know you have some for her.
When she gets there have options for her. Wine, white claw, la Croix, jaritos, whatever. Ask her what she wants, pour her a glass, pour yourself a fancy non alcoholic beverage. If she asks why, stay chill and say"I'm actually feeling la Croix right now" or "I don't really drink, but Ialways have stuff for my friends and family, I like to be a good host and have my guest feel welcome." Just act like it's no big deal, this is just how you are and you're not judging her for drinking.
I'm going to try it and see if it works.
Find out what she likes. Maybe ice cream? Doesn’t have to be just food/drinks. Maybe she likes playing board games or some shit. Say you have a ton at home and thst you should play sometime. Another tip is get them to share a crazy experience they’ve had. And then say someting like ”I bet you have a ton of fun stories to tell” or ”we should exchange life stories sometime”. You can suggest anything, just make sure you own it.
i think this means i have to a lot more investment work than would otherwise be required.
thank you for sharing
Do you drink coffee/tea? or just offer to cook them something light
might feel like a date instead of a hookup. but i will try and see what happens
you can offer to cook for her, or make her tea, but honestly unlless your an ex aclholic or allergic to achol i recommend using the wine close, you dont have to drink but a sip of wine or two
