I started to do some kinda networking these days and went to few events. And at one event I met a guy who is a MD at one of top HFs and we talked for a while. I thought it went well. Anyway, he gave me his card and I sent him an email, thanking for his advice in general etc.
He wrote me back saying "we can get together for dinner." I may be overreacting here but is it normal to invite a female grad student for dinner and "discuss career opportunities"...?
I wouldn't hesitate to go for a quick coffee talk or whatever but dinner sounds just way too weird.......
I don't want to give this 50-ish guy an impression that I will go for this pseudo date or whatever this is just to get a job at his firm or any other place....
Problem is, I think he has some amazing talents and did achieve impressive stuff and would like to keep in touch with him.
