What are your first date expectations?

[ne****]

I want a woman to feel sexually desirable by me. That she knows I feel sexually attracted to her. Because I enjoy flirtation on dates.
I enjoy the buildup. So that first kiss at her doorstep becomes the tell. If mystery and passion is included with role play.
Which becomes the foundation for establishing boundaries. Of role playing between partners. Perhaps leading to a stronger more desirable relationship.
While also communicating effectively as adults.

I expect for people to want to be in the same space or room as me. I'm tired of pulling teeth when trying to get to know a person's likes, dislikes, who they are & what their hobbies are. Because I want to know who the person is, if I'm gonna potentially date them. If you're gonna be curt & cold, I would rather stop the date right there & go home then to waste my time with someone who clearly doesn't want me getting to know them & vise versa.

Like many others, no expectations going into the date. I am a huge believer in in person connection. If we connect, expectations change, I will always orchestrate a proper first kiss with someone who I have connected with. The kiss tells me if I want a second date, or if we extend the first date back to a more comfortable setting. 😉

I just show up and hope it's a fun time. I like eating good food and chatting, I don't expect anything really.

Disappointed is a misalignment of expectations.
Expect nothing or very little.
Anything more is a win.
