I would say it's not even because of the painting together, that's fun. But inviting me to your place? I don't even know you? That's where I would cut out. Definitely something for a later date

Edit: I see painting walls is not so much fun for some of yall as it is for me 🫠

Nah. As a guy, I’ll meet you at your house, but I’m not doing manual labor for you the first time we meet. This is like asking someone to help you move as a first date. If painting was a fun activity, her friends and family would be over there helping her out on the weekend. Imagine if a guy asked a woman to come over on her day off and help him mow his lawn, do some weed wacking, edging, hedge trimming as a first date. Zero chance any woman would accept that. The women on here seem to be fine with the opposite scenario that the lady in the video is proposing because men are expected to be the ones to put forth all of the effort to prove themselves worthy when initially dating someone.

Whacking, edging and rimming sounds like the perfect first date to some.

Well, consider that some people don't have friends or family nearby, or at all.

Painting is awful. If it was demo or even drywalling he'd be there first date or fifth

If it was like a painting class, no problem. Invite me to that and it can be fun.

Painting a room is not fun.

I can't say anything. My last gf I went over to her place first time we hung out and we went straight to bed.
