FIRST DATE
I think it is absolutely mandatory that you find a setting for the first date where the
two of you can really talk. First of all, I want the other person to ask me out. I don't
want to have to hint or wheedle or manipulate my way into getting the date. A great
first date is when there is a connection that leads to good conversation Whether it
be a restaurant or an outdoors setting I feel it is so very important to be able to get
to know as much as possible about each other in that first date.
I am thinking that it would be nice to have dinner and then take a walk at night, but
not too late.
Do not forget to be respectfully and takes home at a decent hour, even if the date
is going really well and neither of us want it to end yet.
On the Fist date it is very important to wear comfortable clothes, not pretend to be
someone else, be on time and listen with attention and respect to the other person.
First Date Advice:
10 Dos and Don’ts Everybody Should Know
1. DO Speak Up
If your date asks what you’d like to eat, drink, or share for dessert, don’t say “I don’t
care, what you want?”
2. DON’T Wear Things That You Can’t Walk, Eat, Breathe, or Talk in
Obviously, you want to look your best, but a first date isn’t the time to take those
new stilettos out for a road test, or wear that dress that’s a little too tight. Why?
Because first dates are anxiety-filled enough and being uncomfortable in your
clothes only makes it worse
3. DO Be On Time
On a first date, you’ll make a better impression if you show up on time.
4. DON’T eat too much
5. DON’T Obsess Over Your Appearance
Who wants to waste precious date time running to bathroom to brush your hair,
reapply your lipstick, or check the mirror every half hour? Put as much effort into
your appearance as you want before you meet your date, but focus your energy on
making solid conversation instead of worrying about how you look.
6. DO Put Your Phone Away
The act of obsessively checking your phone every two minutes could be a bona
fide deal breaker. There’s nothing ruder than trying to have a conversation with a
person who’s constantly stating at a screen. Checking Instagram can wait—and
definitely don’t post any status updates, tweets about your date in real-time, or
snap any candid pics when they’re not looking. That’s just weird.
7. DO Ask Questions
A foolproof way to ensure that conversation will always be flowing is to simply ask
questions. Keep them semi-general (work, family, hobbies, etc.) until you both feel
comfortable enough to tackle the big stuff, like politics, religion, and, uh, exes.
8. DO Offer to Pay
A tactful way to do this is to simply reach for the check when it comes. If your date
insists, offer to split the bill, or at least leave the tip. However, if you offer to pay or
split, be prepared to actually pay or split.
9. DON’T Stalk After the Date
If you had a wonderful time and feel like shooting your date a casual text later
that night or the next day, go for it. Just maybe don’t stalk and accidentally like their
Instagram photos—or worse, their ex’s Instagram photos.
10. DO be Positive
No matter how shitty of a day you had at work, or whether the restaurant you’re at
has terrible service, or the movie you saw is total crap—try your best to stay
positive when getting to know someone. It’ll alleviate any anxiety he’s having about
whether he’s showing you a good time, and it’ll just make you more fun to be
around, pure and simple.
