81. Pay
attention.
Paying
attention to your date is a must, if you want to make sure that you are indeed
dating someone
who has no issues. Paying attention can help you identify signs, which
can tell you
about the negative behavior of your potential partner. By doing this, you
would become
more aware of the things that you need to consider, on deciding whether you
want to see him or her again or not.
82. Stay away
from your date’s home.
If it is still
your first, second, third, or fourth date, you should stay away from your
date’s home. This is because it is simply too soon to be invited over to a
house, or inviting someone, unless you both want to go to the bedroom
immediately, and it is your purpose of going out. If that is not the case
though, only visit your date’s house when you are already in the latter stages
of your relationship.
83. Be honest.
If you are
really interested about the other person, then you should not hide it. Dating
should not be
a game, since it can make you send out all the wrong messages. Instead,
you should be
as honest as possible, so that your date can also see your true self. By
doing that, you
would be able to build your relationship on the right path.
84. Show that you are interested.
Showing the
other person that you are interested is a must, especially if you really are.
This is
because it can build his or her self esteem, knowing that you may be looking
forward to
seeing him or her again. With that, you both would become more excited in
seeing each
other, and be able to enjoy each other’s company more.
85. Your
mobile phone.
When you are
on a date, one of the things that can annoy the other person is when you stop
your conversation in order to answer a call, or read a text message. Therefore,
you should turn off your mobile phone or put it in silent mode, prior to
sitting in front of your date at the dining table. Just answer the messages
when you go to the restroom.
86. Talking
and listening.
Some people
think that they need to talk a lot in order to impress their dates. However,
you need to maintain a good balance in talking and listening when you are on a
date. If you are doing most of the talking, then your date may not be
interested in sharing some information to you or you simply are not giving them
a chance to talk.
87. Talk about
yourself positively.
You need to
build yourself up in your date, so that you can sell yourself effectively.
Thus, you need
to be aware of your positive traits. By doing that, you would be able to
talk about
yourself in a more positive tone, which can impress the other person.
However, you
need to be careful in doing it, so that you won’t become someone who is
obnoxious.
88. Building
your profile in online dating.
Since online
dating is quite popular these days, then you should also take advantage of
it. When it
comes to building up your profile, make sure to indicate whether you are
interested in
a long term relationship or not. By doing this, you can effectively filter out
the persons
who do not share the same goals as you do.
89. Tell a
friend or a close relative that you are going on a date.
Since there
are lots of crazy people these days, it is always a good idea to tell a friend
or a close
relative about your date. You should tell them about the time and the venue
just to be on
the safe side. To feel more secure though, you can always prefer to go on
a date in a
more public venue.
90. You don’t
have to research about your date’s ex.
One of the
most important things in dating is to be yourself. Therefore, you should not
do your
research about your date’s ex, since you may have a tendency to develop a
sense of
insecurity because of that. Instead, focus on revealing your true self to your
date, so that
he or she would be able to decide whether you are indeed the one that
they are
looking for or not.
