Do you differentiate who you will meet by days of the week?Page 1 of 1    
I recently came across someone who was eager to meet me during the week, but when I said I was free on the Friday they didn't want to know. This reminded me of something I had read or heard about before, where some people categories who they would meet by days of the week.

Ie Monday might be a friend from work for a drink.
Saturday might be a hot date.

Do you and have you ever done this and in what way would/do you categories?

I personally am less likely to agree to see anyone before a Thursday purely because I know it would have an impact on my work the next day, but I don't think it would matter who they were for meeting over a weekend.

Nope, I value my friends and arrange to meet when its convenient for both of us. In your case the person was probly out on the lash on a friday.

I make a point of only ever bumping into my ex on days that don't have the letter "a" in them.

Wake up and smell the coffee

Can only meet Monday to Thursday is seriously married, works in 'town' goes home to the country and wifey at the week end

The occasional 'weekend' means a conference or business trip and you are on expenses

cynical ? ............................ moi ?.......................... nope, a realist

I know this person is not married or living with anyone as they are a friend of friends and only lives a matter of minutes from me. I also know they had no real plans for Friday evening.

I think what I am getting at is like with a similar scanario where a man might offer to take one woman out for a drink and another one out for a meal, believing the one was worth more than the other.

I guess I would consider it to be a serious date if a guy chooses to see me instead of going on his night on the lash.

I find it odd that he would see you on a thursday but not on a friday.

It makes me nervous and suggests that he may well be dating others and not telling you.

But he may just have a friday phobia who knows! Who can fathom men out?

Nice to see you back in forums chick xx

Seriously though, the same as the film of the same name hes probly just not that into you.

Find a decent guy that is available,don't get jerked around its not worth it and you seem like a nice person.

I wouldn't really go and play Sherlock Holmes to find out why a guy is insisting on seeing me on a specific day .. or simply to say ... I do not care !

Unless he is the specific guy I have been chasing for the whole of my life but ever the birds on the trees know about this

I have more problems in life than finding out these unimportant things about some strangers.. my idea is we get these platters on our table and we can 'take it or leave it' and I do not think you can ever plan a relationship with some stranger.

But if I notice through small indicators I have not been treated with respect... he is gone.... bye bye and he's not gonna get a second chance

Like I read the story Brad Pitt was caught by Angelina massaging their nanny is the guy stupid or something ? He's never gonna get better than her.. put some people like to play with the destiny

Maybe he's incredibly supersticious. It is friday the 13th.

QI is on on a Friday night, he just wants to exercise his brain.
Priorities that's all.

I'd find another date for Friday if I really wanted to go out on Friday and problem solved ...

You cannot make a serious thing out of a non serious thing... so if I was you OP I'd continue seeing others too and seeing this guy too.... and see who suits me better for MY FREE TIME

Isn't Friday traditionally 'blokes night out'? Maybe he doesn't want to miss his weekly male bonding session...

Oh dear, this wasn't meant to be a personal thread. It was meant to be a more general question to find out if others did this too.

Oh well, another failed thread.

My work determines when I can meet someone, I don't get in from work until 7.30 - 8pm so Mon to Friday is usually out of the question unless they come to my neck of the woods. Simples............

I think this topic has loads to do with prioritisation.

If for example we make someone our priority we'd expect to become a priority in return.

But things do not often work this way and might cause frustration as if someone is not giving us a 'priority' ticket we have given them this MIGHT make us feel down.

Than again, if we do not prioritise, if we smile and say 'yes' to whatever comes on our way and do not make a fuss of where we are in someone's diary then we risk of the whole contact to become 'warm' instead of being 'hot' and we turn somewhere else for the hotter attention.

I remember one situation from my past where I was seeing a guy sometimes and we were both happy about it... but this thing wasn't 'hot' enough to be seeing each other more often.

And when I started seeing my ex husband more often I completely forgotten about the guy and I remember when he called me to go out he was still in the same position as before, but I wasn't. We often outgrow some people and this sometimes happens in matter of days. We look further and looking further becomes more important than seeing this person.

Then I remember the guy for whom I'd pay the 400 pounds ticket just to go and see him for a coffee... Would he do something similar to come to see me?
No. He spends 400 pounds for a skiing trip.
Would I do something similar for another guy? No. No way.
Tells a lot !

Sometimes we wait in the corner hoping someone elses prioritisation would change and we would then come higher on their priorities list.

I think this is VERY WRONG and still many people do it.. including myself sometimes..

Usually my 'hot dates' happen on days with a 'z' in them.

I wouldnt read anything into it unless, as others have also said, they could ONLY meet up with you during the week....I would see that as suspicious unless of course they work weekends and/or have child care commitments. I cant meet up with people during the week because of work commitments. Im old, free and single Fri eve, All of Sat, All of Sunday, if a person cant make time to get to know me during those 56 hours then its just tough titty

That does seem a mite suspicious OP.

I think it means they are attached, Emphasised with there canny ability to drop you like a hot stone (ors it scone) whilst proffering no real alternative and vanishing into the ether.

Tooters of to vanish a plate of muffins into me tum

Hey I do it too - depending on who it is.

First dates tend to be midweek so I can cry off early in case it all goes terribly wrong!! Although ii I have been chatting to the guy for a while, swapped piccies and numbers and I feel it might go well then it moves to the weekend.
