If the First Date Goes Well, You May Get a Second.


Here are some tips for those of you encountering the nerve-racking first date. I think it's normal to be a little nervous before embarking on a first date, especially if it is with someone you barely know.



  • Drive separate cars. This will make ending the date easier if it doesn't go smoothly.

  • Start with lunch or coffee if you're just getting to know someone, this keeps things casual and comfortable.

  • Keep it fun; if it's dinner, make sure you pick (or are taken to if you have any say in it) a place that's fun and up beat; not too mushy and romantic right away. Hibachi restaurants are a good idea, they're fun and interactive and the two of you will most likely be accompanied by others at the table.

  • If you go out to dinner, keep the alcohol intake to a minimum. Chances are, you'll make a fool out of yourself and do something you regret.

  • Use your manners, need I say more?

  • Don't talk too much about yourself or your past relationships. Keep the conversation light and interesting.

These are just some idea's that I believe are important for a successful first date.


I also found this quiz I thought was fun! Try it for yourself!
