Practice Date
If it has been a long time since you have
had a date, your might need a little
practice first.
Ask a friend of your desired sex to help you
with this. Any good friend will be happy to
go on a practice date with you if you offer
to pay. If you can't find a friend to help
you, you need better friends.
When you go on your practice date, ask your
friend to pretend you have just met for the
first time. Have him or her look you over
the way they would on a first date. If you
have any hygiene flaws you would be better
to hear this from a friend than from a total
stranger that you are trying to get to know.
Have them give you a step by step, do this
and don't do this, as you go along. Ask them
to point out what they expected to happen
and what really happened.
An example of this would be if you opened
the door for your date and this is
considered too chauvinistic for the women in
your area. Or if you opened the door for
yourself and this is considered too feminist
for the men in your area.
Ask your practice date to be open and honest
with you so you will not make these mistakes
when it really matters.
When the practice date is over, you should
have a much better understanding of what the
new dating world is all about. If you are
still unsure, a second date with a different
friend can't hurt. |
