Yay fuzzy!
Evening all, checking in to the new thread 
With regards to "how many dinner dates can you go on?"
I have shared this before and resolved it with the help of the lovely people on this thread.
I dated (I use the term loosely) a lovely man for approximately 3 months. 3 months = 12 weeks. I saw him roughly twice a week, sometimes more. 12 x 2 = 24 dates. We would go for dinner, people watching, I met his friends, his parents knew about me. Reader, there was hugging and sleeping in the same bed. There was no kissing or PDAs thank God, hate PDAs
It got to the point where I regarded him as a friend and I didn't know what he wanted from me.
although who buys their friend a £100 bottle of perfume for no reason and tells their parents about a "friend"
Dinner dates are good if you like company and food.
