Dating

[Leeza3]

I started volunteering in a local charity shop about 2 months ago to help me get back into work. And one of the workers that I get along with really well offered to take me out for dinner and help me with my c.v and cover letter as I'm not working at the moment he said he was paying and if I couldn't handle that then we weren't doing it. The thing is I really like him but I don't feel right with him paying for it all. I wouldn't feel right with anyone paying for it all. I haven't been out with anyone since my kids dad left us 7 yes ago but What I would like to do is ask him to go out with me on a date without all the job CV and letters but I'm alittle scared. Any advice for me?

Instead of dinner could you go for a picnic in this lovely weather? And yes I agree, if you like him just go out and no CV talk :)

I like that idea. I think I would actually prefer a picnic. Thank you😀

He’s offered to pay - why do you feel uncomfortable with it? If the date goes well, you can cook for him so it doesn’t need to cost as much as going out.

Some blokes like to pay, some don’t. I don’t see the issue here.

Except I wouldn’t like his ‘my way or the high way’ attitude. That would put me right off.

I also am a bit perturbed at the idea that he's linked helping you with your c.v. and going out to dinner. You can't really do both at once, and it's as if he's blackmailing you into a date.

If it was all said a fun, bantering way fair enough, but don't let him manipulate him into going out with you. Do the c.v. over coffee.

He sounds a bit domineering and patronising, I'd swerve the whole thing.
