When dating someone new how can one avoid making the date feel like a platonic friend hangout?

1. By f*cking them.

2. If it’s a date, the intention is different. I don’t worry about making it feel non-platonic because as a date, we know it isn’t platonic.

3. If I know it’s a date, I don’t assume it’s going to be platonic.

4. If you feel like the date is a platonic friend hangout, chances are one or both of you don’t share romantic/physical attraction. I can go out for lunch with my best friend and feel completely platonic, but if I go to the same place with my partner, it will feel different because we are attracted to each other.

5. flirt! give them compliments!

7. Ask intimate questions. Dress cutely. Small compliments.

8. Straights go through this too!? Jk jk you gotta flirt!

9. Flirt

10. When I’m out with someone I’m attracted to, I don’t have any of the platonic feelings. It’s highly sexual lol

    I naturally go into flirt mode and the rest is history 😅
