When
you plan a date with that special girl you have
been plotting to get a chance to be with for
awhile, its natural you are excited. But that
excitement at getting her all to yourself and
maybe even getting a kiss is often replaced
by some nervousness and sometimes out and out
terror at the kind of impression you will make.
The best way to keep those butterflies in
your stomach from taking you over entirely
is to plan ahead. You want this date to tell
her a lot about you. You want her to see that
you are interesting, smart, romantic and maybe
sexy. But the most important thing is that
she realizes that a date with you will always
be fun and exciting so when you call back
for date number two, you are guaranteed she
will respond with an enthusiastic "YES!".
So if you can come up with some fun date
ideas to make each date from the first to
the fiftieth interesting and creative, she
will get the message that you are the kind
of guy that makes life fun and exciting. If
there is a state fair or amusement park in
town, you have a natural way right there at
your disposal to take her to a fun place full
of rides and naughty things to eat and lots
of energy all around you. Don't overlook that
a trip through the fun house or a scary ride
is a very good way to get her to hold on to
you and be her big tough protector (as long
as you aren't the scared one).
Outdoor activities always have the chance
of being fun and getting you plenty of fresh
air and exercise as well. If your date likes
sports, you can take her to one of the big
sporting events in town. But let's also keep
our creativity going and take her to a sporting
event that is totally meaningless. In the
springtime, you can find literally dozens
of little league baseball games you can attend
for free in parks around town.
Nobody cares if you know anyone on the team
and you can find a game full of excitement
and screaming moms and dads. Take a picnic
and make the day of it. And as you learn the
names of the players, you and your date can
pick opposing teams and get downright enthusiastic
being the best fans ever for a bunch of little
boys you ever saw before.
The key we are looking for in finding fun
date ideas is to find fun where it jumps out
at us. By letting fun just spring up and surprise
you and your date, it's like a buried treasure
that only you and she know about. Other fun
date ideas that take you places that are out
of the way where fun and romance can spring
into existence almost without warning are
hiking, horseback riding, bird watching, fishing,
camping, scuba diving, garage sale shopping
or touring the Christmas lights at the holidays.
As you drive around with your sweetheart
or other times as you prepare for your next
date, look at every event and every location
as a potential date location. A greenhouse
can be a wonderful place to enjoy the flowers
as they burst into life. Did you notice some
historic homes as you passed them in one of
the older parts of town? Well do some research
and do a tour of historic locations in your
community and learn more about the place you
and she call home.
You will find if you turn on this side of
your creative mind, the ideas will come so
fast and furious, you will have to keep a
journal. But when your date begins to get
the idea that any outing with you is for sure
going to be something new and exciting, that
tells her just what you want her to know about
you and that is that you are someone who will
always keep romance an adventure from the
first date until you two are white water rafting
as senior citizens.
Check this out, know your date better and win your
date's heart...
Dating Tip #1
Be Prepared - Some great dates are the ones that are spontaneous, but if you make every date spontaneous then things are bound to go wrong! Take the time to think through your date, plan for any problems like taking an umbrella with you if it is a long walk to the car and the sky looks bleak, or make sure that the restaurant you are going to does not have a hen night on when you are going for a quiet romantic meal... |
Dating Tip #2
Chivalry Is A Must - If you are a man then you should be chivalrous and hold the door for your date, let her order first, pull out her chair - be a gentleman! If you are a woman then you have to let him! It is no wonder that the old fashioned manners and politeness are dying out when people are so stubborn they think it is wrong to let others hold the door or pay the bill! |
Dating Tip #3
Make Eye Contact - Although some people feel uncomfortable with making eye contact, it is eye contact that shows you are interested in your date. People tend to keep eye contact when listening but not when talking to someone, try to make eye contact whenever possible (if you are interested in them that is!). |
