Dating Tips For Women: The Do's and Don'ts of First DateBY: Maya Ballesteros | Category: Relationships | Submitted: 2010-09-04 07:06:12
No matter how many times you've done it, first dates can always be a daunting experience. What if you make a mistake? What if you say things you are not supposed to say? What if you dress horribly? There are some things daters learn as they go and here are some of the dos and don'ts they pick up along the way. Do Keep Expectation Low A lot of mistakes can happen during first dates. There will be some awkward moments, pauses in the conversation and sadly, a chance that the two of you do not hit it off. These are all very normal and likely to happen. The best thing to do is to prepare yourself of the chance one of these might happen and thus relax yourself and amazingly, make you ready to have fun. Do Wear Decent Clothes There is no need to buy a new outfit, especially if you can not afford it. Of course, shopping for a new outfit to go on a date with someone new is part of the fun but it doesn't mean that you always have to wear something new. The thing to remember is make sure that what you are wearing is clean, no stains; decent and not too revealing. Remember that it is to get to know each other and have fun, the teasing and enticing can wait for later. Don't Drink There is nothing attractive about a drunken woman. The only guy interested in an intoxicated woman is one with an intention that is not of the noblest nature. Sip a cocktail if you must but keep it a small amount. Perhaps you want to be a little loose to enjoy yourself but not too loose that he takes you as someone you don't want to be perceived as. Do Eat If your date involves dinner or any kind of stopover at a dining place, don't try to impress him by eating as little as you can. No men is ever impressed by that. Even if you are on a diet, try not to bring too much attention to it. It is very awkward to eat when your companion is picking at her salad or finishes eating just as you are about to dig in. Don't Mistake the Date as Therapy Session A lot of time when we feel connected to the people we just met, we start talking and we talk a lot. There is something to be said about unloading problems to strangers. You might get tempted into doing this as you find your date to be not only cute, but also sympathetic and a good listener. Don't do it. He might listen out of politeness but he will increasingly find you a lot to handle. Keep all this hardship of life for when the two of you are a couple who are committed to each other's happiness. Do Talk of Interests and Important Issues The best things to talk about on a first date is your interests, of course. Share your passion, tell him the things that inspire you. Ask him about his. Keep it light but definitely try to get to know him and let him find out about you, too. Don't Rush Into Things Having said that, steer clear from talks of the future. Your life long dream may be to have a family but don't mention the fact that you plan to get married in two years, have a son and then two daughters, living in Connecticut. That is just taking things too fast and anybody, not just men, will be alarmed and slowly take a step back. Similarly don't assume anything happening between the two of you, such as the second or third date. Let things flow and if he's really interested, he's going to ask when he can see you again. Don't Mention Exes This is about you and him and the potential of the two of you having something together. This is not the place to talk about exes and how they broke your heart or how things were so great. This actually applies to most times in a relationship. If he's curious, let him know what kind of job your ex does, how long you were together but keep things tight, on a need to know basis. Remember to never badmouth your ex, no matter what. Your date is not going to listen to those horrible things the ex did, he's going to wonder if you are going to talk this way about him later.
