Get It Right On The First Date
September 2, 2008
You have read all about the Do’s and Don’t of dating, but still one can never give enough advice on the subject. Here is the ultimate guide to getting it right the first time round. Read this and only an idiot would manage to ruin her chances of a second date with that dishy bloke.
Dressing To Impress
Even though most men don’t know their Prada from a no brand, what you wear does make an impression, if only a sub-conscious one. On the first date never try to be too sexy by wearing low-cut tops or short skirts. At this early stage, he is more likely to be turned on by what he can’t see than what he can. Go for something neat but not too smart. Black trousers or black skirt or dress are always a good bet if you aren’t feeling uninspired.
Don’t Mention Your Exes
This is a mistake most first daters make ruining their chances of a second date and that is talking about their exes. Piece of advice; never ever talk about exes on the first night out. If spending an entire evening recalling past relationships or, worse, trying to find out the details of his, will ensure he won’t call you again. This discussion should be saved for when you know each other a little better.
Alcohol Alert
Don’t get drunk. First dates are nerve-wracking experiences, however, downing a bottle of wine will only impair your judgement making you say or do things you will regret later. Stick to a glass or two and drink lots of water.
Common Ground
Find out what you have in common, whether you both like a particular film or have been on holiday to the same place. Keep conversation general and, if you get on, you will find how smoothly things go. Be natural, be yourself and don’t lie to impress him, he is bound to catch you out sooner or later.
Positive Attitude
Be positive, don’t push your faults at him, rather tell him about the things you enjoy and have achieved. If, you like something he is wearing or what he has said, compliment him. Your upbeat attitude is bound to win him over!
Listen Carefully
Being nervous may find you chattering on about yourself. Get a hold of yourself girl, instead make and effort to listen to what he has to say. Listen carefully or else he might think you are interested only in yourself.
Get Some Perspective
There’s no need to be upset if he doesn’t call you again. Don’t think there must be something wrong with you. It happens all the time; people meet, don’t click and move on. So get out there and find someone else.
