The little “social meet first” kind.

What are the priorities during one?

How they look first?

If they are as claimed, fun,easy to chat to?

What will have you opting for, “anyway nice meeting you”? Too quiet, next to no chat?

Have you ever had a blast socially but just did not fancy in any way?

I always insist on having a social 1st.

Needs to be an attraction and a personality.

No pressure unless they ask you right there if you want you want to meet again lol.

Always like a social first let’s you see if there is conversation to be had and that little something you can’t get from messaging.

Been on socials and had a laugh but wouldn’t take it further but if your all adult about it that shouldn’t be a problem.

Also been in situ where I’ve had a laugh with someone online and in real life they’ve been as dull as dishwater

Socials allow for an appraisal of both to see if it will progress further.

Can also just be exactly that, a social meet and a chat over tea and a scone. Did have one fabber I met several times, circumstances around accommodation meant it couldn't go further but still very nice just to meet.

Huge fan of socials as it let's you see if there is a click and a connection

There is only so much you can gleen from messages and texts but a face to face chat, A cuppa can't be beat

Got to have a social first. Most don't end up coming to anymore than that but it's always nice meeting someone new

A social is a must to see if there is any sexual chemistry it also adds to the antcipation. Honesty straight away even if you dont fancy each other you can still be friends or help each other network

So seeing all this, how do you turn a person down gently that you don't fancy, after a social?

Via message? Face to face?

I personally prefer doing it face to face. With an apology up front.

Or is there an etiquette to it?

I've always like the idea of arranging little coffee meets. Think it's the smarter and safer way to go about things for all involved and is a nice thing in itself.

No idea of the etiquette but if I'm not interested then I'll send a message saying so but thanking them for meeting me. Having been on the receiving end of being ghosted and hating it, I think it's only polite that you let people know where they stand.

Yes, i get that, had both scenarios where i have been incredibly surprised by how chilled people you kind of thought might not be chilled out were actually very good company, but i think we guys are often guilty of over thinking and hyping who you hope will be great to meet, whether it be socially or instant fun wise, i think the forums kind of help in that respect.
