Dress Appropriately
First impressions are important, so it's important to dress appropriately for your first date. This means wearing something that you feel comfortable and confident in, but that is also appropriate for the activity you've chosen. For example, if you're going to a nice restaurant, you'll want to dress up a bit more than if you're going for coffee.
Be On Time
Being on time shows your date that you respect their time and that you're reliable. If you're running late, be sure to let them know as soon as possible.
Be Yourself
The most important thing to remember on a first date is to be yourself. Don't try to be someone you're not, because your date will eventually see through it. Just relax, be yourself, and let your personality shine through.
Listen Actively
One of the best ways to get to know someone is to listen actively. This means paying attention to what they're saying, asking follow-up questions, and showing that you're interested in what they have to say. Don't just wait for your turn to talk!
Ask Questions
In addition to listening actively, it's also important to ask questions on a first date. This shows your date that you're interested in them and that you want to learn more about them. Ask questions about their hobbies, interests, goals, and dreams.
Be Positive
A positive attitude goes a long way on a first date. Smile, laugh, and make eye contact. Show your date that you're happy to be there and that you're enjoying yourself.
Don't Talk About Yourself Too Much
It's important to share about yourself on a first date, but it's also important to listen to your date and not talk about yourself too much. Ask questions and let your date do most of the talking.
End the Date on a Positive Note
When it's time to end the date, be sure to end it on a positive note. Thank your date for a nice time and let them know that you had fun. If you're interested in seeing them again, say so.
Follow Up
If you had a great time on your first date, be sure to follow up with your date the next day or so. Send them a text or email to let them know that you enjoyed their company and that you'd like to see them again.
