First Date Notes

First Date Notes

There are a few things to remember when you venture out on a first date. These tips can help you especially if you have been out of the dating pool for some time.  You may have the jitters and the nervous tummy, but take a few deep breathes, follow these tips and let them see what they’ve been missing.

Do be positive and up beat don’t allow past relationships to sabotage you. Put all your negativity into a box and lock it up. Think about it, no new date wants to hear how your ex cheated on you or treated you badly. Another major tip is to stay home until you are over your ex, nothing quite so tacky as crying into your soup while out on a first date. Save those tears for your mates, that’s what they are there for. Please be honest, your fibs will only come back to bite you if the date becomes a relationship and you told him you were a Lawyer, they will wonder why you are now working in Top Shop or Macys.
Check your ego at the door and in the words of your mum, be nice, if he/she just isn’t what you had hoped for, see the date through and don’t get discouraged. The best things really are worth waiting for. Manners never go out of style. If there are the dreaded silences, lean in and ask about them.  Most peoples favorite subject is themselves.
Wear something you know you look good in, but don’t wear a “dress cut down to there” at your first meeting and then get angry that he wont look at your face when you speak. Fellas just be smart casual, you know what clothes you look good in. Try to be chatty and friendly even if you know you wont be seeing them again. Don’t worry about being too eager, if he asks you out again and you like him then go for it and guys, if you like her and want to see her, tell her. Game playing and dating by the rules are so last year. Most of all, don’t drink too much, if you are going to regret it later, don’t do it.
