He asked me on a date.
A friend of mine. Sort of. I think? His name is Steve.
A kind of friend. I met him here in Washington.
I see. What did you tell him?
That I did not see any harm in having dinner together.
I'm sure there isn't any harm in it.
Oh, that sounds nice. Are you interested?
If that's all you want it to be, yes.
He did not indicate there would be any ceremony involved. What else would it be?
Well, I'm sure you're aware of the rather odd human custom involving inviting someone to dinner whom you are romantically interested in. The term 'date' is usually used to refer to such a scenario.
Oh, well, yes. Still, it is only a meal.
Indeed it is. As I said, I'm sure there isn't any harm in it.
Not that it was really any of my business to begin with.

You do offer a male perspective, which is something I do not often have access to.
I think it is, yes. I am just completely out of my element with this.
Maybe I can help? I'm not very good with the dating thing either, but I might be able to answer some questions.
Well, I have never been on a date before and until he asked, it wasn't something I ever even considered.
What do I wear?
What do I wear?
That depends on where he's taking you, do you know where yet?
Dinner, not Greek. He said nothing here would be able to measure up to what I had at home.
Well, I'm happy to lend an ear where it's welcome. And I hope you and Steve enjoy yourselves.
Well, he definitely gets points for that. Okay, I think dress up, but nothing too formal, maybe a cute dress or a skirt and a nice top.
