The problem with this question is that it immediately puts the dater on the defensive. They’ve just described a happy romantic experience, which, need I remind you, doesn’t happen every day. The polite thing to do is to let the single person bask in this transient stage of romantic excitement. The question “when are you seeing him again?” casts a shadow of doubt on the whole experience: if it was such a great date, surely you’ve already made plans for the next one, right? No? You haven’t? Hmmm. Maybe it wasn’t such a magical connection after all.

Here’s what you should do, as a friend to a single person:

Just assume that there will be a “next time.”

Just assume it! Let yourself be blinded by romantic optimism! Your friend is awesome, right? And he/she just described a great date–of course there will be a second one! Don’t ask if and when it’ll be! After all, you will probably hear about it from your excited friend the moment it’s planned.

And if there isn’t a next time? Well, you’re as shocked as anybody! You definitely didn’t cynically see that coming from the day the date was described to you.

And, also always remember that sometimes people have amazing dates, that, for whatever reason, don’t turn into relationships. It doesn’t make the experience any less wonderful, so don’t take away from it by immediately asking “Cool, when’s the next one?”
