Pre-Dating Advice! Five things to keep in mind before meeting your crush on the town
Oh,
the pleasure of getting ready and taking our crush out to a fancy supper! Even
while we adore first dates, we also need to be aware of the difficulties that
they include. How much should I share? What subjects should you steer clear of?
How should I dress? We're here to help if you find yourself worried about these
issues all the time. Here are a few things to remember before a significant
first date! Look it over:
Be
Punctual
We're
aware of the whole "fashionably late" idea, but believe us when we
say that being on time will help you make a better impression. Would you prefer
if they arrived later? No, I think. So please do the same for me.
Don’t
Overshare
Though
your life may be a complete shambles and you may despise your current manager
and closest friend, please hold back on disclosing too much information on your
first date. Yes, you should be upfront and honest about who you are, but that
does not mean you should use your date as free personal therapy.
Avoid
Mentioning Your Ex
If
you've been mentioning your ex on every first date you've gone on, we strongly
advise that you stop right away! Although we understand your want to be open
and truthful about your past, it's crucial that you save the subject until a
third or possibly even fourth date. On the first date, only say how long it's
been since your last relationship, but avoid bringing up your ex's unpleasant
quirks at all costs.
Wear
something you feel at ease
We've
said it before and we'll say it again: don't dress in a way that makes you
uncomfortable solely to impress someone. Choose something you appreciate and
are confident in instead.
AVOID
OVERDRINKING
While
getting drunk and going bar hopping on first dates may seem like fun in movies,
unfortunately, that's not how things normally work out. It's okay to have one
or two drinks but keep in mind that it's not cool to be carried home by a
complete stranger or to be slurring your words at the dinner table.
In
conclusion, always stay true to who you are and have fun. And if you like the
guy, don't be afraid to call him after the date instead of messaging first!
