The answer depends on your age and experience with dating. As you get older and accumulate bad experiences, you develop more specific ideas about what you want in a partner, and you know sooner.
That varies from person to person, but early dates are performance mode — best behaviour, curated stories, low stakes. Long-term compatibility shows up in the stuff that doesn't fit neatly into a simple dinner reservation.
Men will almost always say what they think the woman wants to hear, and it is often not genuine.
For me though it has always been much quicker. The girl was keen on me and I was keen on her and the relationship was fairly much settled by a period of enthusiastic sex.

I saw a stat that it is an average of 7 dates.

I think that around the third or fourth date, you should be having a discussion about where the relationship is going.
Depends on the person, how you met etc... But after a handful of dates you have a good idea where it's going.
However long it takes to get over the stage of being on their best behavior so we can get to know the real person.
I don't date. If I'm spending time with you then I see long-term potential.
We decided everything on the phone on My last relationship Before I even met her and when we did we went every where and the USA and In Europe
I just keep going until it is over. Sometimes it just faded away.
Two or three dates i guess because i'm an open book, either she likes me or not 🤷🏻♂️
It depends quite a few, in some case you might meet the person in several occasions before calling her for a real date
One., provided the after coffee BJ in the car is acceptable. As long as the sex gets better with each date, I'll keep her around.
You're gonna really hate marriage, bro.
Took me a few before I just knew.
Usually by the third date I can reasonably tell.
One date or less.
Less? lmao
I think three are enough
That's a good question.
