Dating can be hard (and expensive!) when you're dating multiple people at once, never sure if that first date will amount to anything more. In this week’s brunch talk, we’re discussing balancing all the planning aspects of modern dating with putting your best foot forward for each new person you meet. We discuss the differences between first dates and meet and greets, how to do a "vibe check" without killing the vibe, and ways to plan more intentional lower-budget first dates that still wow.
