> If you only want a dinner date for the first meeting,
I assume you’re referring to Dating Type B. Originally, the guideline was a total of about four hours: two hours for dinner and two hours for an adult relationship (intimate).
That’s why, for Dating Types A and B, the first day is supposed to be dinner only, with about two hours as the guideline.
However, when we used to explain it that way, some men would say things like:
“If she’s Type B, I want to invite her out from the first day. So what’s this about two hours? Is the club getting in the way of what happens after dinner?”
So, to avoid ruling out the possibility of an adult relationship (intimate), the guideline ended up being changed to four hours.
It is a little strange, since Type B is supposed to involve dinner only on the first day, followed by saying goodbye.
That said, the staff are only human, so there is still room to accommodate requests.
In this case, once you receive an offer, I think it would be a good idea to tell the staff something like:
“I understand that with Dating Type B, we’re supposed to have dinner only and part ways on the first day, so would it be okay if we ended things after two hours this time? Of course, if we hit it off, I may decide to spend more than two hours together.”
The staff will then check with the man to see whether he’s okay with that.
However, after hearing this, the man may suspect that you’re actually closer to Type A and decide to cancel the offer. Even so, I think that’s better than forcing yourself into something and having a difficult time.
