Dating advice - The basics
Publicat la 05 November 2024
Before anything, we enjoy being liked or loved, ans sometimes we need dating advice. Dating can be quite the ‘likeness test’ for some of us.
Let’s not forget that the first impressions last and prepare accordingly. The details are important and if you wish to ignore some basic rules, you might be ignored in return. So, let’s begin:
Dating rule #1 - Be Punctual:
Punctuality is a sign of respect and consideration for your date. When you arrive on time, you're demonstrating that you value their time and that you're reliable. Being punctual also sets a positive tone for the date, showing that you're organized and enthusiastic about spending time together.
If unforeseen circumstances arise that may cause you to be late, communicate with your date and let them know as soon as possible: send IM, a text or call. Apologize for the delay and reassure them that you're on your way. By making an effort to be punctual, you're laying the foundation for a positive and respectful interaction.
Dating rule #2 - Dress Appropriately:
Choosing the right attire for a date involves considering various factors such as the venue, occasion, and your personal style. The goal is to dress in a way that makes you feel confident and comfortable while also being appropriate for the setting. If you're unsure about the dress code, it's okay to ask your date for guidance or do some research beforehand.
For casual outings like a coffee date or a walk in the park, opt for relaxed yet stylish attire such as jeans and a nice top or a casual dress. For more formal occasions like a dinner at a fancy restaurant or a cultural event, dress up a bit more with attire like a cocktail dress or a suit and tie. Ultimately, the key is to strike a balance between looking polished and feeling like yourself.
Most important: never wear a track suite to a date. NEVER!
Dating rule #3 - Limit Phone Use:
If you don’t like being ignored, don’t do that unto others. In today's digital age excessive phone use can detract from the quality of the date experience. Stay present in the moment and show your date that they have your full attention, make a conscious effort to minimize distractions from your phone.
Consider setting your phone to silent mode or turning off notifications before the date begins. Keep your phone tucked away in your bag or pocket unless it's absolutely necessary to use it. If you need to check your phone for any reason, excuse yourself politely and do so discreetly. By prioritizing face-to-face interaction and being fully engaged with your date, you'll create a more meaningful and enjoyable experience for both of you. I hope this dating advice heleps.
Happy dating!
