Have a dilemma

Online dating, I’ve gone from nothing to now potentially having two dates tomorrow is this ok? One of them I only started messaging him this morning, don’t really know anything about him, but he’s keen to meet up, I guess it’s better than endless messaging though, in his profile he has wrote he wants a best friend he can sleep with, make love to, is this a bit much? it’s not all he’s wrote though basically it looks like he’s looking for a long term relationship. The second one wants to meet tomorrow as well! We have spoken previously, but I took a while to respond, he messaged back earlier saying “hi I take it didn’t work out with someone which is hopefully good news for me, are you free tomorrow?” Then he’s gone on to say he can pick me up he’s not an axe murderer,
he can send me a copy of his driving license, incase I go missing! or I can just make my own way to meet him, which is what I would do anyway. Anyway is two dates ok in one day? And from what I have wrote I don’t know whether to meet any of them 😂

Of course you can go in two days in one day you don’t owe either of them anything and you’re not in a relationship with either of them

I guess it’s more what they have wrote that’s bothering me, but then I guess I won’t know until I meet them.

Not one who says he’s not an axe murderer anyway 😂

I would take him up on his driving licence, but still wouldn't get in a car with him. TBH it sounds as though both of them are just desperate for a shag.

Wishimaywishimight · 27/06/2026 15:16

They both sound awful tbh!

No I definitely wouldn’t get in a strangers car, well they can want it all they want, but won’t be getting it from me

The one who said they want a best friend to sleep with and make love to...does that phrasing turn you on. Or does it give you the ick?

That one id not be keen on.

The other I don't know but meet them both on same day if you like? Why would it matter and who would know? Unless you planned them back to back at the same venue?!

chocolatemuffin75 · 27/06/2026 15:21

Just to add the first one wants to meet in a park, there is one near me that will be busy on a Sunday afternoon, would you go to a park for a first date?

Yes I know what you mean, it did put me off a bit to be honest, but I’ve agreed to meet him now at a park!
no I will have to meet one in the morning and the other in the afternoon.

Op if you are going to meet someone for the first time make sure its in a coffee shop/public place. Not a park!!! Also let someone know where you are going. They both sound a bit ott tbh. Or as previous posters have said just after a shag

The park does get busy, lots of families, well I guess I won’t know unless I meet them.

Haha good. I wasn't suggesting you meet at the same venue!

Well you're giving him a chance. And the other one too. Just know you don't need to pick between them, you can casually date more than one person before you get serious. Or neither if the vibe is wrong! Good luck.

Thank you think I will need some good luck 😂

Oh I loved dating and did have days where there were two dates. Have fun!

The first one wants "a best friend" he can "make love to" reeks of someone saying what they think women want to hear.

The second one wants to know where you live and feels the need to point out that he's not an axe murderer.

Neither sound appealing 😃

chocolatemuffin75 · 27/06/2026 17:23

I’ve decided I’m meeting the second one, but I’m making my own way there, the first one hasn’t really engaged in much conversation with me, hasn’t asked me anything about myself, just wants to meet in a park, I think my gut is telling me not too, something just doesn’t feel right about that.

OP posts:
chocolatemuffin75 · 27/06/2026 17:30

But we’ve arranged a date now, what do I say because I don’t want to meet him? Or shall I just unmatch him?
