I’ve had two “pre-dates” in my life.
Pre-dates are when you make a date with someone. And then you’re so much in love, lust or at least “like” that you can’t wait for your official first date.
So you make another date–before your official first date.
Both “pre-dates” went extremely well. In fact, I ended up marrying both of my dates–although not right away. And not at the same time.
↓ TranscriptWOMAN: B-but...I never sleep with men…until at least the first date!
