3.00 start, if it's good, you stay out.
If it's crap, you can get off and still enjoy a night out.

I have a problem.
I need your advice please.
And I'm being deadly serious.
I have an uncle who lives in Spain. He's going blind and has heart problems - all from diabetes.
He arrived yesterday in Essex for 4 days. Hes here for his twin granddaughters birthday on Saturday. They're having a party from 4pm til late.
I got invited.
I haven't seen him for a year or two.
When my Mum and Dad got divorced he was the man in my life and I stayed there at weekends. I really would love to go and see him Saturday.
But that would mean postponing the date.
Possibly to the next day (Sunday) or ideally by a week.
But I don't want the young lady to think I'm mucking her about.
Cos I'm not.
What would you do?
How should I play it?

Could you see her for lunch on Saturday instead of the evening. Best of both worlds and she definitely won't think you are postponing her or putting her to the side

Thats an option.
Only thing with that is that she lives 50 miles from me.
Then where I need to be in the afternoon is 90 miles from hers, back past my house.
I don't want to sound tight, but thats going to take ages and cost a bomb in fuel.
I don't like letting people down.

If you tell her the truth there's no reason why she should think you're mucking her about, although it probably depends a bit on her confidence and self esteem.
In fact, it shows how considerate you are, so should be a plus. And make sure the re-arranged date is as soon as poss afterwards, Good luck

Well maybe then, sooner rather than later, tell her the situation and ask what she would like to do, rather than overthinking it ... Take the bull by the horns ... It'll make her feel worse the longer you leave it to tell her

Can't you wrap up the date early? Is it a blind date? Take her somewhere near the station and if you don't get on, you can pop up to Essex and see the folks. Or, If you explain at the beginning of the date that you'd like to see your uncle. If you don't click, there is your excuse to cut it short but on thf other hand, if you click, invite her along!
The first time we met my sister in law, which was a second date, he bought her along when we scattered my dad's ashes! Talk about a baptism of fire!!! Us lot weeping and wailing, snotty noses in the pouring bitter rain on the end of Southend Pier.....yet she married him! Yay!
Good luck love, whatever you decide. XXX

Explain the situation and give her several options of when you can reschedule for that way she will know that you are not messing her around.. I know your strategy is see them early so you can still get in a good evening if it doesn't turn out allright... but ....perhaps on this occasion you could suggest tonight or tomorrow evening instead.. that way you are bringing forward and not delaying?
PS - good luck. You come across as a lovely guy and if it doesn't work out I shall send you round some of my younger single friends. x
