Dating should be fun but for most people, first dates make them anxious
maybe because they want everything to be perfect. A terrible first date
could ruin your chance of creating a wonderful relationship with your
date and so you want everything to be perfect to have a great start.
First dates can be stressful if you do not know what to do. The
following tips can be very helpful if you want a more enjoyable first
date.
How to prepare for your first date?
To make a more enjoyable first date, you have to do your homework and
know some basic details about your date. It would be too awkward if you
happen to ask the wrong questions. Focus on your date and prepare on
how to make her comfortable on your first date. Some men do practice
their lines before their first date and there is nothing wrong if you
will do the same. Turning the focus on your date can help you forget
your nervousness and you’ll eventually become more at ease.
To create a more enjoyable first date, avoid Friday night date to
avoid the pressure. Keep the date short to be more considerate of each
other. If you or your date can’t feel any connection, keeping the date
short will save you both of the awkwardness. Keeping the date short
doesn’t mean you have to be rude if there is no spark on your first
date. Treat every first date as an opportunity to expand your network of
friends. Who knows, your date might offer to introduce you to her
friend who could be a better fit for you. Be a gentleman and treat every
first date with good manners. If there is a connection and you are both
attracted to each other, keeping the first date short means there is
something to look forward to, which is your second date. The
anticipation for the next date can be very interesting for both of you.
Be punctual on your first date or call if something came up and you
cannot make it on time. It is important that you make her feel that you
respect her time and remember that being considerate or respectful of
your date makes you more attractive.
What to wear on your first date?
The clothes you wear on your first date affects the level of your
attractiveness. Dress sharp and look your best on your first date. Most
women love to go out with a guy who dress well but this does not mean
you have to spend a fortune for your new wardrobe. Wear something
presentable, clean and appropriate for your date. Wear clothes that
flatter your best physical features and minimize your less attractive
features. Of course to have a more enjoyable first date, you also have
to be comfortable and confident wearing your outfit because you do not
want to feel tense or uncomfortable with your outfit while on a date.
Experts recommend that men should stick to dark-colored pair of
jeans, long sleeve collared shirt with slight patterns or not too loud
patterns and with loose tie. For a casual look, a nice polo shirt and
sports jacket are another option. Tucking in your shirt makes you appear
clean and presentable. Avoid wearing khakis which makes you look like
going to a workplace than a date. Avoid loud prints and stripes if you
want to look good and impress your date. Choosing loud colors can be
distracting, if you want to stand out, choose the colors that are most
likely to attract women like white, black, grey, blue and green. Colors
like cobalt blue and maroon can be attractive too. Flashy clothing or
accessories are not appropriate for a date because it will draw the
attention away from you.
Of course do not overlook your hygiene. Pay attention to your
footwear, have your shoes polished to make them look clean and wear the
appropriate socks. Put attention to your hair, your fingernails and nose
hairs. If ever you end up wearing the wrong outfit on your date, relax
and just be yourself and enjoy the moment with your date.
Where to go on your first date?
Most people choose to spend their first dates on places where they
can dine or sit opposite each other to talk and know each other better
but the problem with this setting is that the date may become more of an
interview than a date. Meeting for the first time on this kind of
setting can be too formal and you both may find it difficult to come up
with subjects to talk about that may lead to long silence or
awkwardness.
To have a more enjoyable first date, it is best to include enjoyable
activities that you can do together like attending a cooking class,
painting class, country fair, bowling, biking, ice skating, karaoke,
etc. or visit places where there are many things that you both can look
at and talk about like museums, zoos, theme parks, underground
aquariums, botanical gardens etc. A walk in the mall or shopping for
small things is also a good way to spend your first date and get to know
each other better. Talking while doing things together is not only
enjoyable but it creates new experiences and memories. As much as
possible avoid concerts, plays and movies on your first date. Dates
should allow you to talk, interact and connect with each other and it is
hard to accomplish that if the environment is too noisy or you are both
busy watching a movie or a play.
