Dating can be exciting and interesting
for everyone involved, but just remember that it's all just a big
sexy gameshow. If you don't play by your own rules, you'll find
yourself playing by somebody else's. Here's some first date coaching
that any personality type can run with. Keep it simple for the win!
Who
The first date is about meeting and
getting to know a little bit about somebody new. Nothing more,
nothing less, darlings. Dating freaks everyone out a little, so cut
each other some slack. Take a deep breath. Relax. Smile. What would
you like to know about this person? Here's your chance to find out!
Ask questions and listen! Flirt and have fun.
What
We're going on a first date here, not
picking out wedding china. That said, people have all sorts of
individually crazy ideas about how dating works, so just try to be
aware and get a sense of whether somebody's sizing you up as “Ms.
Right” or “Ms. Right Now,” and vice-versa. Perspective.
Where
An ideal first date includes hanging
out in a casual public place where you can hear well enough to have a
decent conversation. Small talk makes or breaks a first date! Watch
the body language. Choose a comfortable place and just pay attention
to each other for a little while. Great first date zones: coffee
shops and small restaurants. Awkward first date zones: loud bars and
concerts.
When
Pick about a two hour window of time
for a first date. You want to have a clear time frame planned ahead,
and stick to it. If all goes well, you'll soon have a second date. If
all goes to hell, there's a definite escape route!
Why
There are benefits to having ideas
about what kind of person you hope to meet, how you like to be
treated, and knowing and respecting your own boundaries. Clarify your
own winning scenarios ahead of time. You're way more likely to
recognize somebody who plays a similar game and respects your rules
when you take a moment to know thyself.
So there you have it. The main
objective: simply gather enough information to determine whether
you'd like to hang out with this person again, et voila! First date
achieved. Have fun, darlings!
