So, let's say you have a social/date/group social lined up.

When do you start thinking about what to wear?

When do you want to know the plan? As in where, what sort of time, what you're doing etc.

Do you have quite a laidback, last minute approach to it or do you prefer being more organised?

It really depends on what it is and who it is.

A group social would often require far more outfit planning than a one to one date. (I don't like the term meet). This is because there's far more people to judge me than just one!

A social that is just a social is different from one that might become more so different things to think about it.

Then planning an encounter that is all about the sex is different again.

I am fairly laid back about logistics to a degree.

So I guess there's no definitive answer other than it depends!

We’re so laid back it’s ridiculous. Whenever we travel to clubs we’re always running around last minute packing things and going to random shops for things we need for the night. It’s something that really need addressing.

I think it very much depends on who I am meeting, how well I know them etc.

I can quite often over think what to wear but that is usually a sign that I really like the person. Equally if I don't think at all that can mean I'm so comfortable with them I know they won't care if I'm in a sack

MLS, I've not given it much thought yet as there's no themes and it's just in a pretty chilled/casual bar.

The Gothica social? I'm already looking at dresses and accessories!

So it depends on the theme, vibe etc.

Although, it's clearly very sexist and misogynistic these days... Depending on whom you ask.

For a one on one social I give more thought and consideration than group socials, but that is limited to ensuring that what I am wearing is suitable for where the social is being held. For group socials I make no extra effort than I would nipping out to the shops.

Chams or Socials

I stress about clothes a lot. I hate them but look better in them so can’t win.

I often just swap dresses round the socials which means everyone has seen me in virtually everything I own

As long as my lucky pants are clean I'm good to go.

And if they aren't I just spray a bit of Febreeze on them.

It is, but it works in the context of the movie. We'll just use an "of it's time" disclaimer and carry on singing

Fortunately as a guy, less effort is required into dweling on this.

Smart shoes, shirt, trousers and perhaps a blazer and good to go. Usually decided on the morning of the arranged meet/date/social

Smart dress... What all men

Hi op

What you wear says a lot about your persona. Do I read into it. No. Over thinking can ruin things.

Wear what your want but not scruffy it does not turn me on.

The minute I know what time and where, I think about an outfit, although that can also be weather dependent - I usually like a social where we can have a walk and sit outside somewhere. If I'm really organised I'll even bring the picnic blanket.

I like to know asap, and it has to be specific, no use just telling me a day and an area... I'm likely to make other plans.

I generally like to be really organised , I sometimes have a busy home life, it needs to fit in with the hair washing routine (no joke) but if I'm already going out somewhere and going to be looking half decent then I don't mind a little bit of spontaneity.

Pretty much last minute. I have a few go-to outfits but group socials on here have made it difficult to wear them as I don't want to wear stuff people have seen before. Which is actually ridiculous because of course we all wear the same thing on occasion, but it's still something I'm conscious of

We are both great planners so the planning starts as soon as we set a location and time and if its social or not are all things to be thought about.

Why wear clothes? Is this not a sex site, we are clearly gonna fuck and the clothes just get in the way.

Long duster jacket or trench coat. Problem solved.

I have a laidback, last minute approach to everything. Anita on the other hand will spend two weeks planning for a night away, and still take a choice of outfits .
