Dating Tips

A lot of people have problems with dating, most are nervous beyond reason, often making fools of themselves, and in turn pushing away their prospective partners. And most people when presented with some foolish display become embarrassed by their dates. Because of this embarrassment they either don’t want to be around this apparently foolhardy person.

Some just misinterpret the signs, signals and even the true meanings behind statements made by their dates, for example. A date may say something like: “this is boring” and you think that what they said means “you are boring me” or “why did you bring me to this boring place” and that may not be what your date meant. Staying positive is a crucial part of any date, so if your date states anything similar to this, stay positive and don’t look into things too deeply.

A great way of discerning any underlying meaning is by shooting back a remark that will force your date to clarify like: “well I am still enjoying myself” or “hey lets go to this place then”. A good response comes in the form of “Yeah I still am too” or “Ok sounds like fun”. A bad response may be silence or they simply disagree with anything you suggest.

Try to relax when on a date, because if your date notices you fiddling with or staring the tablecloth then they may think that you are more interested in it than in them. Also it simply gives off the vibe that you’re as mature as a schoolboy fiddling with a ruler during class. Remember to keep your eyes on your date (having said that a little perving is ok, but consistently openly checking them out is mostly just plain creepy) and that the only reason that your even on a date is because they want to spend time with you, its not like they agreed, or accepted the date in order to interrogate you on whether you’re doing anything illegal or not. They’re there because they think your hot and intriguing would like to get to know you.

When choosing a place to meet your date keep these things in mind.
Public place. Many people feel uncomfortable about meeting in a deserted area, because of the risk involved and the vulnerability, it isn’t rash to not be trusting of your date on the first few.
Is it interesting? Going shopping on a first date is a big no, someplace where there are interesting things to see, it helps the date run smooth by bringing easy conversation topics on a date (the zoo, a circus, a festival).

What is there to do? Generally most people eat and drink on a date, which is good. But a lot of places have little actually “do-ing” like a date at the movies is terrible because you cant even talk during the movie so on the first few dates avoid the cinema. Some of the more physical places are great for a date…no not the gym or jelly wrestling at the club, but skating or swimming, even a day of fishing.

Judge not. Remember that this is a person who may surprise you with a few quirks that you may not be too enthusiastic about, but do not judge them or show any sort of disapproval (unless they keep at it all the time). All people in successful relationships have at least one quirk that their partners disapprove of and no relationship is without its flaws.
