Overcome Those First Date Fears
|
The fear of a first date is enough to send anyone into paroxysms of worry. If you are planning to go out at the weekend with that new special someone, the chances are very high that you've spent the whole week worrying about it! Women will worry what they're going to wear and men will worry whether the restaurant they've chosen will be nice enough or classy enough or, even, affordable enough. The main thing to remember when you're heading out on a first date is that your 'date' will most probably be feeling the exact same way.
First dates are exciting, nerve wrecking and sometimes a little bit awkward but they are definitely a great way to get to know more about the person you daydream over on a daily basis. If you've haven't decided where you're going on your first date yet, you should probably stick to the traditional 'dinner and a movie' date but put a twist on it to make the night your own?
Put a twist on the traditional date and leave the embarrassment behind. They say that we're most attracted to people when they're being themselves so why not bite the bullet and go to a noodle or sushi bar? Much less formal than a candlelit dinner for two, you can laugh at each other as you struggle to perfect the art of eating noodles neatly and without embarrassment!
For the movie, rather than planning what you will see in advance, why not just turn up to the cinema and pick the first film that catches your eye? Sometimes if you plan too much you put too much pressure on things to be a success! A word of warning: it's best to avoid the soppy love stories and go for a side-splitting comedy or terrifying horror movie. If the film does turn out to be terrible, then that could actually be a positive because at least you can discuss just how poor it was in the taxi back to their place.
The aim is to be relaxed and to try to make your date relaxed as well. The more at ease you both are, the more you will be able to enjoy the experience and the less awkward pauses and stilted conversation you will have. Try not to have too high an expectation about how the date will turn out - that way you won't be disappointed and it may well turn out better than you had anticipated.
