Tips To Avoid A Regrettable First Date by kazeemshina: 8:39pm On Apr 02, 2016
These are the successful techniques to apply to make your first date last longer and am sure this gonna keep you active and always remind not to act funny just follow me below enjoy.

1.) 1. The first date is the discovery period.
Keep in mind that the first date is usually the discovery period. In other words, it is the time when you learn more things about the other person. Aside from that, you should also open up about yourself, so that your date would also know more about you. This is the time to see if you would really be good together or not.

2.)Don’t forget to smile.
Smiling would not just make you feel better, but it can also make the other person more comfortable of being with you. A smile would encourage a more positive atmosphere between the two of you. With that, you can soon share funny stories and jokes, which would make your first date more enjoyable.

3.)Shave your face.
Although not all women love their men to have shave faces, it is still safer to go on a first date with a clean face. This is because, a woman may think that you are untidy or have the tendency to be violent if you won’t have a clean face on the first date. Aside from that, some women actually have bisexual tendencies, and they simply love looking at a soft face.

4.) Do not have sex on the first date.
Even if your body is telling you to sleep with the guy that you are dating, you should not have sex with him on the first date. This is because, there is a huge possibility that you still do not know lots of things about him after the first date. Aside from that, if you do it on the first date, it may cloud your judgment on whether to continue dating him or not.

5.)Don’t be too serious on the first date.
Dating should be fun, and you should enjoy it even on the first date. Being too serious may put your focus too much on the questions that you need to ask the other person with. It can make you feel that you are trying to interview him, or you are the one who is being interviewed. Try to enjoy the company of the other person, so that you can get the most out of it.

6.) If you are still not over your previous boyfriend, then do not date yet.
You should be fair on the other person that you would be going on a first date with. With that, if you are still not over your ex, then you should postpone the date. If you really like the new guy, then give yourself some time, so that you won’t end up thinking or even talking about your ex on your first date.

7.) Impress your first date with your voice.
Always remember that women do not want men that sound immature, which is usually the case if the person’s voice has a high tone. Thus, you should try to use a deep voice on your first date, so that you can impress your girl. If it cracks, then you need to practice it until you become more accustomed on keeping it low.

8.) Do not talk about topics that can make her uncomfortable.
When you are on a first date with a person you really like, focus more on light topics when you talk to her. Don’t talk about sex since it can make her uncomfortable. Aside from that, you should also avoid very serious topics, since you want to establish an atmosphere between the two of you that is more relaxed and friendly.

9.) Use non-smelling deodorants.
It is a complete turn off to a woman you are dating if you start to smell. Always remember that you can get nervous on your first date, and it can get you perspiring fast. Thus, you need to make use of a good deodorant, so that she won’t be able to smell your sweat. You can also use a mild perfume if you want to or an aftershave.

10.) 10. Don’t act like you are in a relationship already.
Since it is still going to be your first date, then you should avoid acting like you are in a relationship already. In other words, don’t show any kind of jealousy if your date accidentally glanced at another girl. Acting like this can scare off the other person, and it would ruin your chances of going out more.

Lmao! true. Gisting with someone that shares your passion, views, etc can be fuuuuuuuuun 3hrs will look like 3mins. Ive also had few dates like that, they can so capture your interest you will forget you had other plans. Lol.

Aaaarn keeping mute all through is not cute if you aint dumb. Who knows maybe her mind was somewhere else.
