21 First Date

Ideas
 1. Don’t be late. This is a common rule but a lot of people still fail to do so. No
one likes to spend their timing waiting and being late is simply disrespectful.
Give yourself enough time to prepare and try to arrive the location 10-15 mins
earlier. If you are running late, make sure you give your date a call or text so
they can go to a cafe or find somewhere to sit while waiting for you.
2. Don’t get over-dressed. I know how that feel, you want to look perfect for
your date and try very hard to dress up to impress them. However, it’s best to
dress according to the event you are going to. Imagine if you guys are going for
pinic and you are in suit or high heels, that would be super awkward for both
of you. I am pretty sure you won’t impress him/her for this.
3. Don’t talk about past relationship. Either asking or talking about them
are a big “NO-NO”. This is something very personal to ask on a first date
because you are not sure whether your date is comfortable to talk about it.
Talking about your ex might also leave your date an impression that you still
haven’t moved on yet.
4. Don’t get too drunk. If you can’t control yourself when you are drunk, I am
pretty sure you know what to do. Also, it’s always nice to stay a sharp mind to
remember all the things that happened on your first dates so you guys can
start to build on memories and topics to talk about on your next date.
5. Do offer to split the bill. If you are a guy and you feel comfortable to pay
the bill, that’s very nice of you. But for ladies, don’t just sit there and expect
people to pay for your meal, it’s always nice to offer help on the bill! It shows
that you are friendly and considerable person. Of course, if the guy insist to
pay, just let them do the job and don’t argue over it.
6. Don’t focus on talking about yourself. Who doesn’t love to understood?
Dates are supposed to be chances for you guys to know more about each other
before getting into a relationship (or friendship, oops) So if you can’t help to
blablabla about yourself, you will leave an impression of you not interested in
your dates. Always remember it’s not a stand-up comedy, it’s a
CONVERSAION. Try to ask your dates about their interests, jobs and hobbies,
nothing too serious and personal!

WHAT TO KNOW THE SECRETS OF MAKING A

PERSON FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU ??
First date is always important because it’s where you drop
your first impression and most importantly, it plays a big
role to determine whether or not this relationship will
work out.
It’s just like choosing what to read. Let’s not talk about
the book cover (I know, I know, Don’t just a book by its
cover!) so now we all judge by how the story begins. No
matter how amazing the storyline is, if the introduction
failed to grab readers’ attention, no one is going to read it
because no one likes to get their time wasted. Relationship
works this way too.
If you need ideas to secure your first date and your own
impression, You’ve come to the right place! When I first
started dating, my idea of a date was the stereotypical
cheap-dinner-and-a-movie. Don’t hate on me, I didn’t
know any better! By the time I finished high school I was
pretty comfortable in my own skin and got pretty good at
coming up with ideas for dates. I’ve put together a list of
some of my favorites as well as some suggested by friends.
Enjoy!

Outdoor Adventures
1.Go for a walk – This is such a simple first date idea but
most shy away from it because they feel like they
must do something complex in order for their date to be
impressed. Wrong! The only ideas you need to impress
your date with are the ones that you articulate as your
conversation progresses. If you are an interesting person
and have found a fun person to spend time with, rest
assured that a walk about town will be just fine.
Remember, the idea is to leave your date wanting more.
2.As a warning, you may be tempted to start talking about
previous relationships. Don’t. That’s not how to get over
an ex. Rather, enjoying the company of a fun new person
without dwelling on the past will serve you best!
WHAT TO KNOW THE SECRETS OF MAKING A
PERSON FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU ?

Watch an outdoor movie – Going to a movie is pretty

worn out in the world of first date ideas. You can
resurrect it in a fun way by going to see a movie outdoors
or, even better, at a drive-in movie theater if you still
happen to have one near where you live.
Create your own picnic – Pick a nice spot near where
you’re meeting up and swing by a grocery store or take-
out restaurant for some quick eats before setting up camp
for food and conversation with your new favorite person.
There’s no need to spend a lot of money. Picnics are
supposed to be simple and you want it to be about getting
to know your date, not truffles wrapped in gold foil!
Go boating – The idea of sailing on a first date seems like a
recipe for disaster but something milder, like canoeing,
row boating, or taking a paddle boat out on a sunny
afternoon would work well. Admittedly, the last time I
took a girl on a paddle boat for a date we both ended up
soaking wet with marsh moss in our hair. It was amazing
though!
Go for a run together – If running is your idea of a good
time, an easy run with a new friend can make for a great
date!
Volunteer at a soup kitchen – One of the best first dates
I’ve ever been on involved meeting up with a woman at
5:30am to serve breakfast at the local soup kitchen. Not
only did we get to know each other better but we got to do
something worthwhile that helped our community. It’s
hard to come up with a reason why giving back to your
community could be considered a bad idea for a first date!
If you don’t have a soup kitchen or other short-order
volunteer opportunity, be creative and come up with your
own. There is always somebody nearby who could use
some help if we are willing to give it.
Get up insanely early and be the first customers at your
favorite breakfast joint – You’ll get a chance to chat
before the restaurant gets busy and have time to do some
people-watching when the regulars start pouring in. Note:
If you find somebody who is cool with rolling out of bed
early to join you for a breakfast date, it’d be a bad idea to
let them get away!
