How To
How to Act on a First Date?
The first date should be fun and exciting. You want to have fun together. So, what are the best ways to do this?
First, don't assume you know everything about everyone. It's fine to be unfamiliar with someone's hobbies and interests. This doesn't necessarily mean that he isn’t interested in these subjects. It doesn't matter if you don't know all about him yet, it doesn't mean that you won't enjoy spending quality time with him.
Keep it lighthearted, second. Do not take yourself too seriously. Relax if anxiety is a sign of stress. This is supposed for fun!
Third, talk about your mutual interests. Ask your partner questions about what interests them. Ask questions about each other.
Fourth, listen carefully to what he says. Pay attention to his speech patterns. Pay attention to whether he uses words like "I" and "you". Pay attention to how fast or slow he talks. You can listen for clues as to how he feels about others and himself.
Fifth, ask open-ended question. You should ask questions that both of you must answer. Instead of asking "What type of music do you prefer?" Ask "What music do you prefer to listen to?"
Sixth, be attentive to his body language. Be aware of signs that he likes and respects you. You can see how he holds your hands when he talks with you. Are you able to see hand gestures? Does he seem comfortable around you? Is he smiling? These are all signs that he is interested in you.
Seventh, pay attention to signs that he doesn’t enjoy you. These are signs that he doesn't like you. How does he react when you touch him? What happens when you look into his eyes?
If you feel that the person is attractive, kiss him. It's fine to immediately start kissing the person.
If you don’t like him, tell he so. Tell him that you believe there's no way for you to get along with him.
If you really can't stand the idea of dating him, then say so. Tell him he's not for you. Maybe you would rather spend your time with someone who shares a greater number of your interests.
It might be a good idea to tell him that you have already met someone.
You might even say that you feel sorry about him. He probably has some good qualities but hasn't found anyone special yet.
This would be a great thing to do.
