The Do’s And Dont’s On A First Date

So you’re going out on a first date or looking for someone better to finally settle down into a serious relationship (that will hopefully lead to marriage)? It’s normal to get excited especially if it’s a first meet up but before you got carried away with your emotion, you need to know these first date Do’s and Don’ts to ensure you are not only have a good time together but also get a second date, too.

DO’s

Wear a good clothes

Girls, wear something that will make the guy see your natural beauty and boys wear neat and highlight your assets. Most importantly, be real, look your best and wear what makes you feel comfortable.

Call a friend before the date

Nervousness will surely happen on a first date. Call a friend or a family member to have some words of encouragement.

Be yourself

If there’s one thing that you have to be, that is to be yourself. Don’t try to be something you are not just to impress your date. Being yourself is your best asset. Besides, if he can’t accept you for who you are, you’ll be having a hard time dealing with him/her.

Show your interest

Don’t ever show that you’re not interested on your date. Listen closely to what he/she is trying to say, ask questions and talk about interesting topics.

Make an eye contact

You wouldn’t want your date to feel you’re not interested so make an eye contact and it will surely drive him/her crazy.

Be honest

The secret to a healthy and last relationship is honesty. However, honesty doesn’t mean you have to share your deepest and darkest secrets to them that early. It’s about being true to your feelings and thoughts than leading your date to his/her own assumptions.

DONT’s

Don’t expect too much

You will appreciate your date if you don’t expect them to be the way you want them to be. The lower expectations you have, the happier the first date will be.

Don’t talk too much

For safety purposes, don’t inform your date too much about yourself. Save that information when the times the foundation of trust and intimacy have been established.

Don’t drink too much on a date

One wine is enough. Don’t drink too much on a date to avoid unwanted occurrences. A drunken man/woman is not on their right state of mind and might do and say something strange and silly.

Don’t get too personal

It’s good to ask questions but don’t get too personal. Don’t ask him/her how many kids they want to have (Seriously, on a first date?) and their credit card limit. Take things slowly.

Don’t talk about your ex

If there’s one thing that will surely piss off your date, it will be you talking about your ex. Your date is not interested with your past; he/she is interested to you and the things that will happen after your first date.

Don’t talk about your weaknesses

To make a good impression, don’t talk about your weaknesses on a first date. People want to see the good in everyone so as your date. Show your date about your good qualifications but keep yourself grounded that you will not sound boastful.

At the end of the day, it’s all about treating your date how you’d like to be treated. Remember these dating etiquettes to make your first date memorable and one of a kind experience.
