Top 3 Singles Dating Advice For The First Date

Tweet

After mustering enough courage to ask her out, you now have a date. Now, congratulate yourself and plan your next move. It is a given that the date itself can be nerve-wracking especially if you are wildly attracted to her. Fortunately, there's many ways to prepare and help things run more smoothly. If you play your cards right, she just might think of you as her knight in shining armor direct from the story book.

KNOW WHERE TO GO - it is a real turn-off if you go on a date and don't know where to go. The girl is assuming that you took the lead since you asked her out. So plan something in advance. Going out for lunch or dinner is always a safe option. The good thing about a short date is that there is not much pressure to prolong the agony if the two of you are simply not compatible.

AVOID AWKWARD SILENCES - no one wants awkward silences during the first date. It is uncomfortable and makes both parties unsure of themselves. Well, it is actually quite easy to avoid this. You can simply read up on today's newspapers to know the latest show-biz gossip or world news. Choose three or four topics as backup in case you don't have anything to talk about.

MUSTER THE ART OF CASUAL CONVERSATIONS - there is a perception that dates should be serious. That's the reason why most people feel compelled to talk about heavy topics and their feelings. But the truth is, no one wants to feel pressured on the first date. Be sure to keep everything light by knowing casual topics that can easily be talked about. Conversing about the restaurant's menu, your hobbies, and travel are pretty safe bets.

Probably the best ice-breaker though is your sense of humor. Also, throwing in some offbeat trivia or question can lighten the mood dramatically. For example, asking something like "If you can cook for three kings from history, who would they be?" The conversation can then proceed to the "whys" and you will know each other better without trying too hard.
