Top 8 things to remember before going on a date

Hello Gentleman. 

How many of you have gone on dates?

Stupid question, lol! I know but for all my brothers out there who haven't been on there first date yet or who messed up on their first date or subsequent dates.

I came up with some tips and tricks to help you guys to nail it on your first date. 

LET'S GET STARTED...

1. Don't be late

I know its a normal thing to be punctual and its not a rocket science, but you won't believe how many people get late on their dates. And it creates a very bad first impression. 

You wanna nail it on your first date then you better be on time and there is nothing wrong on being 15 minutes early on the venue. 

So, always be o time.

2. Break the touch barrier

Touch barrier is the only thing which is stopping you from being the boyfriend of that awesome girl who you are dating. When you touch her hand or hug or or touch her anywhere (and i certainly don't mean awkward areas). Touch actually brings you close to the girl and in her subconscious mind you become a boyfriend figure.

So, when u pick her up or meet her just give her a little hug, that's all. I know it sounds awkward to hug the girl in the beginning of first date but trust me it works.

3. Cater her

Now, you asked the girl on date and most importantly you are a man, so its your duty to cater the girl. If you are in a resturant or in a cafe, ask her if she is thirsty or hungry or what would she like to have. 

Just cater her like a boyfriend and just like before you will look like the perfect boyfriend material. 

I mean that's all you want from the date, right?

4. Have a list of questions

When you have a series of questions and you
know what to talk about

Now this is the most important thing to keep in mind before going to a date. 

Just imagine you are on a date, talking to a girl and suddenly there is this awkward silence. Its because you hit the wall, you exhausted the topic and you cannot find anything else because you had no question prepared in your mind. And this awkward silence bores the girl. 

If you already have a series of interesting questions prepared in your mind, you can never hit that awkward silence moment. These questions will help you to know more about the girl and she will never get bored. Its all about letting her talk about herself.

This is when the girl gets bored because of constant
awkward silences

And think about it, no girl complains that she kept talking about herself on the first date and boy didn't say anything about him. Its simple psychology that everyone likes to talk about themselves.

About the series of question, remember the questions should not be too deep or too personal. it should be fun, playful, makes the girl more open to you.

For example-

A. What's her favourite destination?

B. Did she ever had a pet? If yes, then talk about that.

C. Ask her about her school life.

D. What's her favourite food, resturant, drink etc.etc.

All those above questions are playful and fun and can keep the flow of the conversation. Conversation doesn't get boring and you become more interesting.

5. Get her talking

This is not what your date will look like
but its a known fact
GIRLS TALK TOO MUCH! LOL!

Like i said earlier that everyone likes to talk about themselves. No girl will go home and complain that she talked all about herself on date. But if you keep talking about yourself and don't let her speak then you are in a bit of problem. Because at the end you don't even know the girl. You went, talked about yourself and came home. 

Ask her questions like i explained above, get her to talk, and that's it, you hit it. 

But when she is talking keep listening and pay attention or at least pretend you care. If she gets an essence that you are not at all listening, you will look like arrogant and that's where your date is gonna end.

6. Don't boast

On the whole date you are not only gonna talk about her. I mean you will try but on the contrary she will also ask you questions about yourself which you will have to answer. 

While talking always keep in mind, never boast about anything which you have or don't have. And especially don't bring money or even something related to money as a topic on your firs date. It totally looks unattractive. 

Talk about character and nature and not the earning capacity of each other.

7. Compliment and flirt

If you make her blush, you are doing
it right 

Now the next thing which comes into picture is complimenting and flirting. 

The thing is, girls like compliments, a lot! When you meet her compliment her about her dress or her hair or anything which you find attractive. Just don't go total saying hot or sexy kind of things, it makes you look like a moron. Dressing sense or hair or shoes something like that is a sober compliment and good for the first date.

About flirting, it starts with compliments. You like something about her then tell her. Complimenting and flirting are not the same thing but related. When you compliment her about something you get a window to 

flirt with her. I will write a post about complimenting without being creepy some other time.

8. Ending the date

YES WE CAN!

Now you had a nice date, you nailed but how to end it. 

Usually dates end with dropping the girl home but sometimes you get a bonus in name of kiss at the end. 

Now when you drop her home, if you sense some signals like she licked her lips or she is trying to think something looking down, stuff like that, come closer and kiss her. not a big smooch, just a mixture of romantic and good night kiss.

If you cannot sense any signal, take a step closer, if she also comes close, tell her you really enjoyed spending time with her and go for a kiss. If she hesitates then don't kiss, be a gentleman, say sorry, greet her good night and go.

That's all for now! I hope these 8 tips will help you. And i know all you, my brothers out there, are gonna hit it off on their first date.
