3rd date with a potential relationship guy - will I hint qt him picking me up?

OK so first off, I have decided that I am not going to directly ask him to pick me up based on the fact that he lives an hour from me and it is only going to be our 3rd date.

However it is looking like we could be on the track to a potential relationship because we have both gotten on so well, he is hugely into me and I fancy him too, but this date will definitely be the decider as to whether I want this as much as he does, because I don't want to go through another relationship where I just settled and never fully fancied the guy from the start!

So is it ok to give hints or give a feel as to whether he'd like to pick me up?. Or should I just directly ask him? Or should I just see if he asks me? The date will consist of dinner first and then the cinema. He gave me another option of a dinner and then a walk on the beach but I chose the first one as I do enjoy the cinema and it might make me less nervous about kissing him as we were still to nervous to kiss on our last 2 dates.🙈

If he’s not drinking because he’s driving, it’s not really a good idea to have several glasses of wine. Drunk people aren’t usually all that attractive to sober people.

But either way, setting him weird tests by hinting at things - just don’t!

Oh man. Get the bus?

This must be a wind up surely Confused

Why would any woman want to deliberately send this sort of message to a guy. He'd either think you're an entitled user (if he wanted to needlessly go an hour out of his way to pick you up he would offer to himself) or he'll think you're hinting at casual sex afterwards,or if he has bad intentions will be rubbing his hands with glee that he knows where you live after just 3 dates.

Why would you even want a virtual stranger knowing where you live anyway at this point! Not safe at all. He could turn out to be some kind of stalker. I really hope you don't have kids at home.

@Gilda152

Pick you up...like in a horse drawn carriage with a chaperone? What am I missing here?!!
🤣

I agree, don't hint at things and set him tests. As already mentioned, hinting that you want him to drive to your house suggests you want to invite him in for sex.

Just be yourself and try not to analyse this to death. It's possible you're getting swept up with romantic notions?

I think it's almost impossible to tell who's "more into" who after two dates. He could be showering you with compliments and meaningless platitudes, you haven't decided how you feel.

Is this weird Wednesday or something Confused

How old are you op . I can’t decide if you’re massively young or self absorbed or both

But that’s great he’s so massively into you and you’re a great kisser. 👏🏻
