So if you really want to make the groundwork we will tell you the right things to do on a first date with a guy. There are some first date do’s and don’ts you need to follow that would help you create that impression and give a glimpse into who you really are.
5 Things Every Girl Should Do On Their First Date
Having said that, if a first date goes terribly wrong, it’s safe to say it indeed is a warning that you two are probably not meant to work it out together. Hence it’s certainly important that you do a few things right to make sure you make the most of your first date. There is no denying the fact that the first date comes with a lot of expectations from both ends so our first date tips for girls can come in really handy. Here are 5 important tips.
1. Carry cash and go Dutch
There is no bigger turn-on for a guy than going out with a girl who likes to pay for her share. It’s also a b-i-g boost for the feminist in you. It doesn’t matter if he chooses to be chivalrous and rejects your offer; it’s your gesture that counts. Remember, just because he is a guy he is not entitled to pay for you. Just like, even if he pays for you, you are not entitled to have sex with him. It’s a two-way street. But if he agrees to split the bill you have reason to feel good about it. For starters you paid a share in the good time you had together and there is no obligation if things don’t go great after the first date. So the advice for girls on a first date is to always carry enough cash so that you can pay your share. Most importantly, don’t offer, and then hope he wouldn’t allow you to pay. He would know you are being fake.
2. Show good behaviour to people around you
You know how they say, your behaviour towards the servers define your personality? It’s true in all facets of life – including your first date. If you are not being nice to the waiter it could be quickly perceived as a relationship red flag by your date. Be warm to the Uber driver, the waiters, the elevator man, and the elderly people who bump into you on the street. It makes a huge impression on the guy when he sees you being gracious to strangers around you. But genuinely believe in treating people good, don’t try to be what you are not.
3. Drop the agenda, be honest
Don’t go to the date with an agenda. How would you feel if the guy comes to meet you only because he wants casual sex? Similarly, if you go to the date to evaluate the guy’s financial or social worth for your future security he will sense it. Instead, show him your spontaneous side and genuinely go to the date to know him better. Men like women who are not needy and take things easy.
4. Be a conversationalist
The idea of a date is you two get to talk. Don’t be a grouch who sits there acting bored. Engage in a good conversation instead. But don’t make it all about you and blab. It’s no secret that men like women who know the art of holding a good conversation. Refer to Cleopatra’s irresistible charm as an alluring conversationalist as history knows it.
5. Have fun and let it show
If you are having a good time, show it! Don’t be that high-maintenance princess who is hard to please. Don’t act like you have something better to do by checking your phone, taking not-so-important calls – if you have to be somewhere else then just leave. Pretending that you took out time from a deluge of work assignments and found a quick window for a date is not the right thing to do. It might make you feel self-important but does send the very wrong message to the nice guy. The best thing to do is be in the moment, have fun with the food and the conversation. It does not matter if the first date will lead to a second date – it might, it might not – but while you are at the table at the lovely restaurant, just have a good time with the person sitting opposite to you. Finally, remember that chemistry takes time to build, and love doesn’t happen on the first date. All you can do is, have fun and enjoy each other’s company. Don’t be afraid to show it if you do and the rest will follow.Any tips to add to this list? Tell us in the comments section below.
