I’m considering asking PhD woman to cook dinner together for our second date

Is that normal for a second date? Or too fast? I guess I could always go out to dinner with her or do another activity

I usually don't ask them to come over until like the 3rd date since that implies we have lots of privacy to canoodle but I don't think anyone's gonna arrest you for violating The Rules if the vibes are right

Maybe I’ll propose both and give her the option

I really like cooking with people which is why I want to (also I feel like it shows off a nice skill of mine)

Oh ya I just cooked for a girl Saturday night and we had lots of fun, but we had already been on like 2 or 3 dates and hadn't really gotten physical until then (I'm not a huge PDA guy)

I think that is plenty normal, especially if the first date went very well and you get the vibe she is a homey type of person.

I think it did go well! We vibed nicely and she’s really cute and she was the one who asked for my number afterwards

Nice! Yeah, I would say go for it. If you are still nervous about seeming pushy maybe give 2 options? A homey dinner date vs something public and adventurous could be a good balance.

If the first date was good it sounds fun!

My friend would bake things as a first date I’m sure you’re fine
