A minute of coaching
Give her a plan
she can answer.
A vague “we should hang out” leaves her to arrange the whole date. One specific invitation gives her room to say yes, suggest a change, or pass.
“I’d love to hear more about that concert. Coffee at Juniper on Saturday at ten? I have about an hour.”
Use your own words and a time you can keep.
Where to meet
Start where dating
is welcome.
Being a mom tells you something about her life. She gets to tell you whether she wants a date.
Use a dating space she chose.
A match on a dating app or a conversation at a singles event gives you a reason to ask about a shared interest. Open with something she chose to share about herself.
Ask for a mutual introduction.
If a friend knows someone you might get along with, ask them to check with her privately before sharing a number or arranging a meeting.
Let friendship spaces stay friendly.
People come to our While It Spins tables for friendship. They’re a place for moms to meet other moms. Dating introductions belong in a setting where both adults have chosen that possibility.
Dating on a full calendar
When the week
changes shape.
She needs to change the date. What do I say?
“Thanks for letting me know. I’d still like to meet. Is there a time that works better for you?” Give her room to suggest a time. If she doesn’t, let the invitation rest.
When should I ask about her children?
Let her choose what to share. You can ask about the things she enjoys and the kind of time she has for dating. She can decide if and when family introductions make sense.
How can I tell if she’s interested?
Ask once, plainly. “I enjoyed this and would like to see you again. How do you feel?” Take the answer she gives you seriously. A full calendar by itself tells you very little.
