Women Are Saying You Should Do This 1 Thing After A Date To Know If The Guy Is Right For You

Posted on Oct 22, 2026 UTC

We've heard a lot of dating horror stories over the years, so it's no surprise that new dating tips are surfacing every day.

And right now, a big one that is circulating on Threads is from user @bbbrooke__:

She shared how well a texting exchange went after she gave her honest thoughts to a man she went on a date with:

Here is how the rest of the interaction went:

Immediately, people applauded the constructive dialogue between them:

Because a lot of them assumed the conversation was headed in a very different direction:

Many women were very turned on by the man's replies:

Like, really into the reciprocal exchange:

People pointed out how maturely the man received the information:

Even if some did think it was a bit formal:

It started bringing up conversations about how consent is always the way to go:

And lots of women reiterated that they get super turned on by it:

On the other hand, there were opposing thoughts about this from both women...

And men:

Some men said they would be polite in their reply, but immediately cut off the woman after a text like that:

Others shared that their girlfriends admit they would not be into a man who asked permission:

These people believe it takes out the spontaneity of the moment:

Especially older generations:

This led to people rationalizing both sides:

Until one man made a very important point about consideration and the world we live in today:

Examples of how simple the exchange can be on both sides were also given:

Because, at the end of the day, it comes down to respect:

And many women said that sharing the feedback (even if they aren't interested in seeing that particular person again) helps pay it forward for others:

So, I think the key takeaway here is that communication is important...

And that each person should be thoughtfully cared for after sharing what they are feeling:
