What Makes A Date Good?

As With Most Of Things, It Will Be The Two Of You That Will Make The Decision If The Date Was Good Or Bad.

Is There Anything You Can Say In General About Dates, You Might Ask Yourself Now.

The Answer To This Interesting Question Is Of Course: Yes!

There Are 7 General Things That Will Tell You If The Date Went Well Or Not:

1. When You Set Up Your Date Together, The Two Of You Decided To Meet At A Public Place and Maybe Even Had A Chaperon Or Two That Were At The Same Place But Not Within Sight. Here Are Some Important Security Advice For All Singles, Especially If You Are Going Out On A First Date With Someone You’ve Just Met Through A Dating Site.
2. Your Conversation Felt Natural. It Might Have Started Out Slowly But After A While The Conversation Went On Quite Smoothly. If You Have Read My Blog Before, You Know That My Understanding Of Communication Is That It Is The Key Element Of Dating.
3. You Didn’t Felt Awkward In The End Of The Date. If You Didn’t Felt Awkward In The End Of The Night Then It’s A Good Sign That Things Are Going Well. If You Did Felt Awkward In The Beginning But Not In The End, That’s Nothing To Worry About.
4. You Have Decided To Go Out On Another Date Together. This Is A Tell-Tale Sign That Things Are Going Well. Don’t Forget To Do This In The End Of The Date Or You Might Not Get Out On A Second One. Read My “Last Minute Dating Tips“-Post From Earlier This Year To Get Some More Information.
5. You Did Felt That There Were A Connection Between The Two Of You When Your Eyes Met, Maybe You Even Held Hands and Went For That All Important First Kiss. For More Advise On This Topic, Read My “When To Give Her The First Kiss“-Post.
6. You Remembered To Call Her After The Date And Talked For A While, Maybe Even A Couple Of Hours. If You Need Inspiration You Might Want To Read The Post “When To Call Her” On This Blog.
7. Remember To Always Be Honest With Yourself and Your Intentions When You Are Dating Someone. You’re Not A Sleazy Salesman (Or Saleswoman) Who Are Trying To Sell A Used-Car For Almost The Full Retail Price To A Customer, You Are Dating This Person Because You Might Be Starting A Relationship That Will Last Until The Day Your Earthly Life Ends.

What Makes A Date Bad?

I Can Not Just Say That If You Have Read The 7 Things That Makes A Date Good Above, You Could Just Reverse It And That’s It. There Are Also Other Things That Might Happen. So Without Further Ado, Here They Are:

1. If Someone Of You Have Done Something Inappropritate To The Other Person, Your Date Is Over. Period. It Might Not Be Inreparable If You’re Lucky But It Might Be The Case If Your Date Isn’t Willing To Forgive You.
2. You Have Been Rude To Your Date and Offended Him Or Her In One Way Or Another. If You Have Done Something That Is A Big “No-No” For Your Date Or Your Date’s Culture, It’s Not OK and That Might Be The End Of Dating That Person. Reading My “Culture and Dating“-Post Might Be Quite Beneficiary To You.
3. If You Felt Awkward The Entire Time, This Person Isn’t For You But I Still Hope That You Have Been Able To Brought Up The Topic With Your Date. Maybe Both Of You Felt Awkward and Then, It Might Just Be An Awkward Experience For Both Of You.
4. You Felt Like You Had Absolutely Nothing In Common and Had A Hard Time To Find Topics To Discuss. If This Was The Case, You Should Look For Someone Else To Be Dating In The Future.
5. You Forgot Things Your Date Have Told You. This Is Something That Will Make Most People Annoyed, If You Forget Details Of Their Lives That They Have Told You About Before. Try To Remember It, Especially If You Want To Continue Dating This Person. This One Isn’t Exclusive For Dating But For All Kinds Of Human Relationships.
6. You Were Dishonest and Lied About Facts About Yourself Or Your Life Which Your Date Found Out By Looking At You. The Difference Between Real Dating and Online Dating Is Unfortunately In Most Cases That People Do Not Look Like They Do On Their Profile On The Dating Website For A Number Of Reasons. They Might Have Gained Or Lost Weight, They Might Have Used A Picture Of Someone Else Or Just Made Up Themselves Totally.
7. You Had Talked With The Person You Went On A Date With and The Two Of You Decided To Not Go On A Second Date, Then You Should Continue To Look For Someone Else. Don’t Rush Things Though, Give It Time and Evaluate Your Dates. This Is Important That You Give Yourself Time To Think About What Has Happened. One Model Is Found In The Post “What To Do Between The First and Second Date“.
