Need advice quick! Going to his house to watch movies at night how do I not be awkward?

[Anonymous]

So we’ve been on 2 dates so far and talk everyday I was briefly at his place once to meet his cat but tonight I’m going over and we are watching movies and have planned out snacks. We aren’t dating though and I am only willing to go so far… until we are official and I’m scared to set boundaries. I have no idea if I’m staying the night as well? Plans haven’t been properly made I feel rushed but at the same time I don't know just need options on the situation.

Update!! We ending watching fallout and figured out we both loved smosh on YouTube. Grabbed some tacos and a little after that I gained the confidence to ask to him to be my boyfriend, which he said yes! I also set the boundary of not staying the night and doing anything yet, and he was super respectful of that. Couldn’t have asked to meet a better man and thank you everyone here who gave advice! I’m still young and learning so thanks again

Ok time out Missy. Damn rights your going to set boundaries, he needs to respect you and he needs to know where that fine line point is so set. Your boundaries. Don't be in such a hurry.
If he doesn't like it, believe me, I'll get over it. You will respect you 10 times more if you set your. Boundaplease you are the boss. Do not take no s*** from nobody. Always remember that

And i can't tell you what to do, but don't give in either LO. L

Look when you set boundaries, he will come to a point to where he's going to cross the boundary, you're going to say something he's going to look into your eyes and he's always going to remember that look.\nThat's one of the main reasons why you have to set boundaries, so he has a direction so he has a map. Sometimes guys get brainfaced. He needs to be able to look into your eyes and no oops put on the brakes


Look, look at it like this. You're going over to your buddy's house to watch the movies. He's probably gonna want to try to get in your pants. You're gonna say no stop it some other time big boy..

He'll start crying, say, come on, please. He said don't make me put you in time out. And no ice cream


So you've already thought about it. So that's good. Just remember you are the boss. You need to respect you. If he doesn't you need to walk away you come after you but you need to show him when you say something you mean it

Look, it's completely normal to feel a mix of excitement and anxiety when you're in a new situation like this. The key to not being awkward is to feel confident and in control, and that comes from having a plan, even if it's a loose one. Before you even walk in the door, just take a second to decide what you're truly comfortable with—and what's a definite no. You don't need a formal speech; just be prepared to set small, clear boundaries in the moment. If he makes a move you're not into, a simple and firm "Hey, I'm having a great time, but I'm not ready for that," is all you need. A good person will respect your wishes without it getting weird. As for staying the night, you don't have to have that decision made right now. When the movie's almost over, you can casually say, "This was awesome, but I should probably head out soon," which signals your intentions and gives you an easy out. Trust your gut and communicate your needs; a strong connection is built on mutual respect, and you deserve to feel safe and comfortable.

He will want more than just to watch a movie. If you feel awkward, just dont go.

Wait, you don’t know how to watch a movie with a person?

[Asker]

It’s not that I don't know how to watch a movie but more so like that’s it? He hasn't stated anything other than going to his place for movie night? Does he expect me to stay over, is he looking for more than movie time, I’m pretty social awkward especially with one on one type situations

[Abbycado]

Impossible to tell. I mean that would be reading his mind. Not even his social cues can be taken for granted. He could have ulterior hidden motives or none at all.

Go into it with your boundaries set and enforce them if he crosses a line. You are able to control what happens.

Be honest and upfront. Ask your questions. Set your boundaries upfront.

Just try to be self-confident and you'll be ok.

[Iron_Man]

that’s a huge mistake you know what’s gonna happen? You won’t get past 30 minutes into the movie without him trying something

You aren't mature enough to date if you aren't comfortable with setting boundaries
