Try this
- Identify the blocks that are genuinely reserved for study and the breaks you can offer without overcommitting.
- Choose a small shared moment and a way to update the plan if coursework expands. Keep optional messages free of reply deadlines.
A worked example
“I’m studying Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Could we cook together Wednesday and leave the other evenings flexible?”
An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.
