-
Carry your common sense with you on your first date. Let your hair down, feel friendly and enjoy yourself but don't be taken in by everything you see.
-
Don't be rigid or reserved on a date. You will never get to know him nor shall he be able to fathom you. You all will part as strangers and remain that way.
-
Strike up a bright conversation with your date. You may even gain a friend.
-
Be polite and decent. Watch your manners.
-
Be attentive and appreciative. The guy will warm up to you instantly.
-
Don't necessarily "judge the book by it's cover". If the guy you are dating doesn't look the complete Romeo yet he's a great guy and real fun to be with - give him a chance. After all the person counts more than his looks in the long run.
-
Don't be critical of him in front of others. Male ego crumbles easily.
-
Be nice and pleasant with his friends.
-
Find out more about him - his area of interests, his friends and family. DON'T be a long nose! Don't pester him for personal details.
-
Don't exhibit signs of possessiveness. If he realizes that you are clinging types he may disappear through the nearest window.
-
Avoid glancing those good-looking guys around you. He'll be put off.
-
If he's critical of your clothes, your hair style, your choice of books, food, restaurants… Take care, you may end up with a nag.
-
Romance thrives on honesty and trust. Be sincere and genuine. You'll win his heart.
-
Dress elegantly, smartly or casually as the venue and time demands. But always look tidy and smell fresh and alluring.
-
While talking to each other do not avoid eye contact and do not let your attention stray. You'll be sending the message that you 'simply don't care'.
