10 BEST FIRST DATE TIPS TO MAKE A GREAT ONE.
Hey everyone, I know I've not posted for a very long time, and I'm really sorry about that. I wanted to put up a new blog post, after the previous post but I couldn't. School is super stressful and time consuming, so I haven't had time to do so. Well I'm back now, and I promise to post more often.Well, today's post is a very nice post on a very important topic, and I know you all will love it.
First dates are always nerve-wracking and no one wants to end up ruining the date. At the end of the day, you want the date to turn out great,"a date you'd remember".Typically, on a first date with someone you'll be very nervous,but don't worry, I'm here to ease those nerves.
Here are some tips to make a great date:
1.FIRST IMPRESSION MATTERS: First impression matters especially when it comes to a first date. Doing the right things makes you set to have a nice experience with your date, but when you don't do the appropriate things or mess up the first date, you might not even get to see your date the second time or even get a second date. Like they say,"you always get one chance to make a good impression".Therefore, It's important to be your best self and make a good impression on your first date.
2.KEEP TO TIME:Punctuality says a lot.Keeping to time makes your date know that you really want to see them. It shows that you truly appreciate their presence. On the other hand, if you delay your date, you'd just end up creating a bad image of yourself. You might come off as being a person who's selfish and doesn't keep to their word to your date. Personally, I feel the minimum time to wait for someone is from 20-30 minutes anything longer than that,"apology not accepted", kidding though but let's be realistic, it's not a good thing to be late for a first date. Even if you have to be late for some reason, lets say traffic, make sure you inform your date about it. Moreso, being punctual just tags you as a serious person, so yeah don't be late.
3.BE YOURSELF:If you're not yourself, then who will you be? I know at first you might want to paint a pretty good picture of yourself. So you might try to impress your date but not being yourself doesn't help. I believe if you're real and all, your date will be happy to be around you but if
you're forming you might just lose it.'Don't pretend to be someone you're not ".This is what people mean when they say be yourself nothing extra. Just be natural and friendly. Also, just because your date is of a different class than you doesn't mean you have to try to meet up to his standard to feel like his/her match.That's a no-no.
4.AVOID THE "EX"CONVERSATION:Let the past be in the past. Come on!Let's be real guys, your date doesn't really want to know about your ex. Unless you're specifically asked, don't talk about it. I feel that maybe after the first date with the person, you can talk about it. It's your place to say if you want to talk about your ex or not. It is known that about 70% of single ladies talk about their date which is very very rude and wrong. You might come off as being bitter and I don't think that's the kind of impression you want to make on your first date.
5.TURN OFF YOUR PHONE:Pulling out your phone from your pocket or your purse can interrupt the conversation. It makes it seem like what your date is saying isn't important. The best thing to do during a date, is to keep your phone on silent mode or better still just turn it off. If the tables were turned, and your date was making use of their phone while having a conversation with you, you wouldn't like it. Using your phone while on a date is a very rude thing to do and it might end up making the date feel uncomfortable.
6.OFFER TO PAY:My girls, I know you all will so argue with me on this because most of you believe that the guy is meant to pay on the first date. I'm not saying it's not his place to pay, all I'm saying
is that you can also offer to pay maybe half of the bill. Then it would be up to him to say "no problem ,I'll handle it".Please, please and please when going out with someone or date, take your money in case there is any problem. You can also take your atm card just to be on a safe side.
7.KEEP THE TOUCHES FRIENDLY AND CASUAL: C'mon this is our first date, respect your body language and don't be too clingy. It's very irritating when someone you're just meeting fpr the first time starts touching you and all, it's so uncomfortable.keeping a friendly touch when making a first impression is also important. It's fine to hug the person but when you're acting too intimate with the person it's awkward and not nice at all. Just keep the touches friendly.
8.KEEP THE CONVERSATION FUN: Even if the date is boring just keep the conversation going. Find what to say, to be honest we all have something to say even when we think we don't. You cam just talk about any event or anything that just happened recently jut to make things be interesting or you can ask questions of anything you have in mind. Trying to keep the conversation going doesn't mean you'll keep talking and not wait for the date to respond or allow the date to talk.
9.FOR GUYS, BE A GENTLEMAN:Which lady doesn't want to be treated nicely? Like they say, a lady needs a gentleman to sweep off her feet *winks*.So to do this, behave like a gentleman by doing basic things like standing up to greet her if she's the one meeting you somewhere, opening all the doors for her, getting the chairs for her to sit and making her do all the things first. Treat your date with respect,Ladies love Gentlemen
10.KEEP SEX OUT OF THE CONVERSATION:It's a first date not an intimidate date. Bringing sex up is like the worst thing to do because everything will end up being awkward, and you might end up making your date feel uncomfortable. You just met the person, why bringing up sex conversation when they're a lot of things to discuss about? keep the "do you have a boyfriend or do you have a girlfriend"out of it because it's not necessary on the first date, you should've known that before asking to go on a date with the person.
Whoops!!!I didn't know it will be this long but it's worth it though.
