What is the best way to handle a counter offer where I suggest a particular day she comes back with another day and seemingly legit excuse but.my schedule doesn't accommodate the alternate day

This is why you dont ask a specific day. You find out when shes free then make definite plans.

In your situation though, just counteroffer. Say "im busy that day...what day are you free next week"

Understandable, makes for better flexibility and shouldn't be a issue of indecision. Some of the advice out there is too rigid when trying to lead and set up a specific time. At least there is a level of interest worth pursuing when given a specific counter offer.
Thanks for the timely response, my skills are a bit rusty.

I used to say let's do drinks Thursday because it was "more alpha". Now I say "let's do drinks this week after work. What days are you free?"

If she wants to go, it's not like saying it one way will make her want to go more than the other. On the other hand, if she's busy Thursday you're screwed. My new way allows her to say "well I'm free Tuesday - does that work?" and if it does I say yes. Otherwise, I can say "no but I'm free Wed, Thurs does that work for you?"

Us as a male race has become to pussified we are too afraid to allow for a working woman to enter are universe there is no time constraint leave it all open ended and let the chips fall where they may.

Tonight I saw a woman in her early 20s twenties literally surrounded by 5 30 year olds. She was the center of attention and they were all vying for her attention. Its disgusting what the male race has become and subject to our own creation

I just find it humorous, but I get your point.

I find that many men are looking to fall back on relationships for the fulfillment that they didn't receive in their work. That's why you should focus on life more than women, and make women a PART of life, not life itself.

I agree, women make up a piece of the pie. Weak men have created a virus that keeps evolving.nd adapting at pace that is hard to keep up with.
