Couples First Date
Introduction:
You
have secured your first date now what? You're probably asking yourself.
Questions like what should I wear? Where should we go? If you have
already met your date and both agreed to go out on a date this means
you're both interested so relax? If you never met your date the
possibility is always there that your date may not meet your
expectations or you won't meet their expectations. Never solely judge a
person by their looks. If your date doesn't look cute or pretty try to
make the best of the date regardless. Never dart out the back door! You
wouldn't want someone to do that to you. Be a friend! Besides your date
may feel like darting out the back door also. The next question is what
to talk about now that you're on your date and what not to talk about?
Conversation Should Be a Two Way Street
Neither
one of you should dominate the conversation, but instead take turns
sharing. How much personal information you share will probably vary
depending on first impressions, body language and gut instincts. Talking
about family and friends is usually a good direction to take the
conversation.
Keep Conversation Neutral on First Date
Work
is a neutral subject. You can talk about your last promotion and what
your goals and dreams to succeed. Just be careful not to let work
dominate your whole conversation after all you're not there to talk
about your job. Beware of dates that keep mentioning their work. You do
not want to start a relationship with someone who cares more about the
job than life its self. You will never fit into their schedule. You will
always be put on the back burner. Talk about interests, hobbies and
ideas of fun you may discover either a sense of compatibility or none at
all. Either way, this is a plus to find out early on in the game.
Likes/Dislikes
This
makes for good conversation you could talk about your favorite movies.
You can talk about the types of foods you like or dislike. You can talk
about volunteer work that you do to help others or help animals. You can
talk about events you went to such as concerts. Just try to keep the
conversation neutral and positive.
Politics and Religion No No on First Date
Never
talk about debate able subjects like religion or politics on a first
date. The conversation can take a wrong curve. You could jeopardize a
great friendship or ruin your opportunity to get to know your date.
Either Way the Date Turns Out
Never
go out on a date with the expectation that you're going to hit it off
right away. The purpose of dating is to determine whether or not to take
the relationship to the next level. If the relationship doesn't advance
to the next level at least you gained a friend.
