If you have a first date, you probably think a lot about that moment that is yet to come. From the way you will look at him, if you will be a little late to make yourself beg, how you will laugh ... There may be many things on your mind, and there are many things you will need to deal with before leaving home.
Your goal is to find love, not worry and lose a great person for doing the wrong things, so it's time to find out how to have the best date without spoiling it for these things.
Worrying too much about your appearance
Of course, you want to look good when you go on a date. There is nothing wrong with that ... your date will want to look good to you too. But it is not a good idea to worry too much about your appearance, choose the outfit that makes you feel good and the makeup that you like, But don't overdo it too much because being natural is better than wearing too much makeup.
If you and that girl get along and want to see each other again, that definitely means she finds you attractive, but your appearance isn't the only thing she finds interesting about you. He will also be drawn to who you are inside and will like your personality. He won't mind you wearing a black dress when you've been debating a red one for half an hour.
Looking at the phone too much
Yes, it's part of conventional dating advice: don't look at your phone. Don't text your best friend or look at social media or Google. Don't check your work or personal email and, by the way, don't even have your phone on the table. Leave it in your bag where it belongs and focus on your date.
Yes, that's good advice ... but at the same time, we are all human, right? If you're on a date and you check your phone because someone texted you and you accidentally looked up to see who it was, that's fine. Nothing happens. These things happen and you can just ignore him with a smile and say something like "Yes, I'm addicted to this phone ..." You could also be checking your phone when your date goes to the bathroom and he will see you looking when he comes back. That is also fine if you leave it immediately on your return.
Chances are, if your date is a good person you can see yourself with for the long haul, he'll laugh with you and say he's just as connected to his phone. Plus it takes the pressure off if your mom emails you and you have to respond super fast, or if you check social media without even realizing it because it's just a habit right now.
Talk too much
Do you need to worry if you talk most of the night? No, definitely not. This is just one of the things you shouldn't worry about. Why? Because you are a fascinating person and you deserve to talk about what interests you and what you are doing with your life and whatever else you want ... as long as you allow the other person to speak, express yourself and be a good listener too.
Don't let your date say nothing, so if you realize that 10 minutes have passed and you haven't stopped talking, leave a gap. in conversation to allow the other person a chance to be heard by you as well.
