In this blog post, we will discuss some things you might do on a first date. All information that you find below is put together by the team and consists only of their own personal experiences.
First of all: Congratulations to having a date with someone!
We think it’s in order to say this first of all. Now, let’s begin writing about some advice.
You are always nervous when you’re on a first date with someone, no matter if you are a man or a woman. In most cultures of the world, the man is supposed to take charge. Even though it might be different in different cultures and that the man might do it in a more subtle way.
Dress properly and be sure that you have shaved (men their facial hair and women their legs) and looks nice and smells good. Ask your date if he/she is allergic to perfume or aftershave before putting it on!
If you put on an aftershave or a perfume that sends your date to the ER chances are very small that the person will give you a second chance to make up for that mistake.
The first advice is to do this by suggesting something and let her pick where you should go. A “coffee date” i.e. meeting him or her in a café is never wrong. By doing this you are giving yourself as well as your date the chance of escaping in case he or she feels awkward.
We don’t recommend it generally that you have the first date in either one’s home but if you do it make something to eat and maybe propose a film that the two of you can watch. If you do then make her select between a comedy or maybe a feel-good film.
If you invite someone to your place, make sure that you have cleaned as properly as you possibly can.
We only recommend that you meet in a private home or so if you are students, then we think it’s OK. Then you can make something to eat but if you do make sure that you don’t make anything that people
Talk about something and make her feel comfortable, no matter where you guys meet each other.
Make some jokes about something and of course listen to what she has to say, her jokes and her interests. This is the most important thing, the first date is always about the woman.
Of course, there is another advice: Check what’s going on in social media and talk about that with your date. If you know each other a bit already, you would know his/her interests. Then you can do a search on the Internet or in any social media to see what people are talking about.
Since most guys like sports, it is good to check what the buzz is about the team that your date is following. If it’s a local team you can even go to the library and borrow one of the latest newspapers or do a search on that newspaper’s website to find the latest articles.
Talking about Christ and your faith is something else that we highly recommend to talk about on the first date. This is based upon our own experience of course.
It is always good to take a stand and tell your date about what you think is important. Especially for the ladies but of course for the guys as well.
For a safe experience on your first date with someone, we always recommend that you read our FAQs which is totally free (you don’t even have to be a member).
