Gatherings are allowed in many places now or will be in the coming months. But large gatherings like bars, sports games, concerts, etc won’t be options due to corona.
During quarantine there were threads about ideas: ie FaceTime, Netflix party, etc.
But what about now? Park/picnic/Netflix n chill … What else?

One month ago I (23M) never had a SO, had that first kiss, held hands, etc…
Last month I got some random ass match on Hinge. 0 other matches, except this really attractive girl. Fast forward to a month later, and after a handful of dates, I’m going to ask her to be officially together this weekend.
Of course it’ll be my first relationship sure, but more importantly, its the first time ever I haven’t had to stress, worry, chase after some girl.
Every girl prior, I’ve had high anxiety talking to, the worries of “she’s gonna turn me down.” Going out to coffee with one girl being so nervous and excited, only to spend the next day going crazy over “Idk if she likes me. should I text her? what do I do,” only to be turned down with “I’m not in a place to date right now” and more scenarios like this.
Looking back at every girl in Highschool, college, and beyond, I realize how painful that was. I now realize how I never will do that again. Chasing after some girl who isn’t interested in me or doing the whole “befriend her and she will come around” deal. I see ads on YouTube where some really good looking guy looks into the camera and says “got a stubborn girl who you are chasing? well click the link below on how to get out of the friend zone. it works trust me gents” and now think you are so full of shit
Let’s say after a few months me and this new girl part ways. Let’s say my one lucky match goes down the drain and I’m single forever again. Well I still don’t go back to the chasing-the-girl because I realize how pointless it is. Its so draining of my energy.
Like, I remember going on a coffee date with this girl who I was REALLY into. We talked for 2hours. About what? about her. that’s it. She didn’t ask me one thing. She wouldn’t keep the conversation going, and it was me doing all the work. Instead of keeping the convo going, she would sigh and kind of look away as if to say “youre boring me”
At the end I thought “man i hope she likes me.” I’m now thinking back saying ‘THINK SHE LIKES YOU? SHE’S AN ASSHOLE WHO SAT THERE FOR 2HOURS WITHOUT EVEN ASKING YOU ANYTHING? HOW ARE YOU STILL INTO HER?’
tldr: first time experiencing what its like to have someone interested in me and it makes me realize how much worse “chasing after her” types of situations are in hindsight
