Questions to Ask on Your First Date

Questions to Ask on Your First Date

The first dates are usually an opportunity to get to know one another. But then again, nervousness can get the better of most of us. And when that happens, the date ends without you getting to know your date better. Here are some compiled first date questions that you can get ready to prevent that unfortunate event from happening:

1. Are you an indoor or outdoor person? For one thing, that would give you an insight into what kind of person your date probably is. An indoor person would tell you that he/she is a homebody and would prefer the silent sanctuary of their home instead of the hubbub of the outside world. An outdoor person would tell you that your date is most probably friendly and out-going and always looking for fun and exciting things.

2. Do you like to travel? If he or she says “Yes” then ask them about the places that they have traveled to. More conversation time for both of you, and you also have a greater inkling of how much he or she has seen the world. If he or she says “No” then ask him or her “Why?” and then ask them where he or she would like to go if ever given the opportunity.

3. Are you a night person or a day person? Night people are usually those that love the night life and love to party out. A day person is usually pretty serious with their work and their life. This first date question is effective in getting to know more about your date’s life.

First Dates: Ordinary to EXTRAordinary

First Dates: Ordinary to EXTRAordinary

The first date can be a nerve-racking experience for most people. But if you are ready for it and you have a sense of fun and adventure then this should be a piece of cake for you! Now, you don’t necessarily need to be a Casanova to prepare a romantic first date. Here are some first date tips to make an ordinary date, extraordinary:

For Dinners: Spice up that dinner by doing something rather than plainly eat. Men, give her flowers. Now we come to the food. First, choose a restaurant that you already know serves good food so that you won’t be embarrassed with the possibility of bad food during your date. Try a new dish and tell your date to try it too, or else, try a new brand of wine, who knows, you might just like it. Or ask him/her to try out an unusual dish that you already LIKED because you’ve tasted it before.

You can also arrange for the waiter to do something special like playing a song for your date that you dedicate for her. Having him say that “Mr. So-and-so would like to thank the lovely Miss So-and-so for gracing him with her presence tonight.”

For Movies: Alright, now, most girls like romantic comedies. They are funny and they are romantic. So if this isn’t your cup of tea, then please just pretend that you are excited by their choice. Once inside the movie house, try not to yawn too much and for your sake, don’t sleep. Also, try not to smirk or snort too much. It would annoy your date for sure. Buy a large popcorn for the both of you. Hey, you get to brush her hand and also look generous for her.

Hey guys, are you wondering on how to make your first date romantic? All girls LOVE romantic men, so it would be a big plus for you if you can pull off a romantic first date for your new girl. These romantic first date tips would surely earn you a ticket to a second date:

1. Plan ahead. Yeah, I know most of you guys are probably saying, “Wow! That’s really helpful and romantic!” But see, planning ahead means that you are smart and considerate. You would not want her to think that your date is planned sloppily, right? Think about what to wear, where to go, and no, the “Come what may” attitude definitely will not work for first dates.

2. Be on time. Probably one of the easiest ways to show how romantic you are is to be prompt on your date. It would make her feel special and pleased that you showed up on time. Up the notch a bit by appearing on the venue a few minutes before the appointed time so that she can see that you are already waiting for her, with a rose in hand. Romantic, right? And no, it’s not okay to be late, but bringing a bouquet of roses. It is NEVER okay to keep a lady waiting.

3. If she knocked the wind off your sails, let her know by actually TELLING her so. This would mean that you would have to say, “Thank you for the date, I really enjoyed it and I’m so glad to have met you,” then seal it with a kiss. Not a torrid one, minds you. Even a peck on her cheek or a soft kiss on her lips would be great.

First Dates: Calming Your Nerves

First Dates: Calming Your Nerves

Alright, so it’s the first date! Congratulations! But as usual with first dates, butterflies in the stomach are sure to be fluttering all around right now. So, let’s discuss a few first date tips for you to calm down those nerves.

First thing’s first, go up to the mirror and look at your self. Look long and hard. Psyche yourself up by reviewing all the good things above yourself and the compliments that he gave you during the time that built up until the first date. This is your first date tip. You must first have the confidence to actually go through the date, to not just get through it, but to pass the date with flying colors that your guy/girl would want a second date with you.

Next, decide on your clothes the night BEFORE your date. Women especially put extra effort on their dressing up, so if you’re a woman, it is better to finalize what to wear on your date. You would NOT want to make your date wait for you because you had to rummage through your wardrobe for that perfect “first date” outfit. Realize that there’s no such thing as a perfect outfit, but it is how you think of yourself in that outfit that makes it perfect.

Last first date tip for now, is to remember on what your date is like. You would not want awkward silences, so you must brush up on your “small talk” topics. Look back on the things that you have in common so you might discuss them later. But don’t force it. If you guys have rapport, then you have it and that’s good. Don’t let your first date last more than two hours so that the element of “mystique” is on your court.
