First Contact After an Online Romance
In making approaches in public places, remember that you almost never get more
than you are willing to give. Instead of dropping questions that provoke limited
responses such as yes or no, reveal something positive that stimulates further
conversation.
Don't start talking if you have nothing to say, this can be perceived as blabbing.
Separate casual friendliness from cold aloofness.
If there's not a spark, know when to quit. Passive rejection is better than active failure, and a lot less waste of time.
Use the environment to engage conversation or interests.
Make eye contact, but don't stare. It's just not polite... :)
Failure is the biggest intimidation but you learn from mistakes so the next time might be a tad more smooth.
Use the moment, don't lose it. Too often a magical moment is lost because
you're standing in the doorway headed out while the person of your dreams walks
in. That's when you need to go back in - to use the restroom, make a phone call, or perhaps even profess an interest.
The Objective is exploration - of each other!
Why be unrealistic? The odds of your finding your cosmic half in twenty seconds
flat are slim to none. The agenda is whether you want to see a person again.
Keep that one in mind.
Say Cheese - or at least "think" cheesey like.
Being a cheerful, smiling date increases your odds. Be positive, it's the best
impression you can make. Even a silly smile is better than being stiff or uncomfortably
serious and. Jonathon, a 39-year-old lawyer recollects how he smiled pretty constantly
when he first met his wife Liberty. "He had such a goofy look on his face,
I thought he might have been gay," says 29-year-old Liberty. "Still,
it helped break the ice and as I now know, he of course isn't gay."
Casual Conversation Cues
Keep it light. Keep it snappy. Keep it easy. And Lighten up. Humor keeps them
coming back but it has to be natural and spontaneous. If you can't be funny,
don't be cheesy.
Subtle Gold Digging Mentality
A good way to obliterate chances on a first date, it is by 'casually' talking
finance. Men and women alike can see through even subtle probes on such matters.
Not only is such talk in bad taste, it's also presumptuous and tacky.
Chill with the Heavy Stuff
Commitment and money aside, there's still plenty of stuff you say that will
raise the flag. Religion, politics or one's general stance on 'issues', for
instance. Besides, a first meeting is not the place to let on about the chronic
bulimia you've so bravely overcome.
Covering That Tab
You're supposed to cover your half of the bill. That's a ground rule set in
stone, unless you and your date have decided otherwise, prior to the evening.
In these emancipated times, women sometimes find it offensive that you should
cover their half as well, so play it by ear. Everyone notices a lousy tipper.
However, everyone notices lousy wait staff too, so be judicious.
Body Lingo
One sure-fire sign, that a date isn't interested, is when he/she doesn't maintain
eye contact or keeps looking at the time and acting figity.
Share your enjoyment - or lack thereof.
You are at your most desirable when you've admitted your date is. If you enjoyed
yourself, makes sure you say as much to your date. And follow that up pronto
with an offer to go someplace again. If things haven't worked out, keep a cheerful
exterior and say you had a good time anyway. Then, duck out if future dates.
Excuses are a dime a dozen.
Go With Your Gut
The truth is, sometimes the hard-and-fast rules about dating don't kick in These
are only general theories that seemed to have worked well for the majority.
If you choose to be that rare exception to the rule, and wish to throw caution
to the wind, do so cautiously. Many have done so before you, and with great
success.
