You see, we have this odd way of thinking
that involves cause leading to effect. As opposed to possible cause leading to massive illogical leap to anticipated and unwanted effect before the possible cause has actually happened, which it probably won't because that possible cause is usually something a woman would do and thus practically impossible for a man to even visualise, grumblegrumblebitchwhine.

accurate

not really
it's called looking at all eventualities, rather than assuming that a situation is completely linear

Edit: example given (since it's in my thoughts at the moment) I'm going on a date in half an hour with this person. It would be foolish of me not to think ahead and plan out the different scenarios of what might be said/might happen and how to react to them

it's sensible to give thought to some general areas of what might happen
but to try and think out specific scenarios in detail is almost pointless as you can't predict what is going to happen.

well obviously
I'm not creating Word Documents of possible conversations. But I am evaluating approaches that will indicate if this is actually a date, or (not sure of the term) but much more sex-focused. Can't think of the word.

haha
didn't think you were.

forethought is definitely understandable in the situation you have there. need to figure that out asap I'd say. why not ask?

probably be a bit awkward that
'hi do you actually like me, or do you just want to complete your hat-trick.'

it'd save either of you wasting your time

I thought it was a woman thing
but from a quick ask of my room-mate and her friend, and your response, it appears it is an Amberl thing

Whereas he's probably thinking
"Boob would be good, but I'll settle for a snog."

He's probably cleaning the pipes in preparation

Gotta have a gentleman's wash first
Only polite.

Pits and bits?

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 7 Jun 2010, 11:55, Reply)

Or for the ladies
A 'pit and pot wash'.

Brilliant

If it involves a man
the situation is linear. He's going on a date with you because he fancies you and would quite like to slip you one given half a chance. I guarantee that this is the extent of his reasoning.
( Kroney, Mon 7 Jun 2010, 11:53, Reply)

His reasoning may extend to bum sex as well.

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 7 Jun 2010, 12:03, Reply)

it would only be a fleeting consideration
far too early to be considering that with any seriousness
