What Not to Say if You Want a Second Date

A first date is the beginning of the love fairy tale. There are topics that should not be brought up obviously, the fact that you were constipating last week is one example. There are other less obvious topics to avoid…

I hope you like this place – Be certain and confident. Even if you chose the worst place ever, don’t appear insecure or not sure of yourself. If the place you picked is all that bad, carefully say ‘you get to pick the venue next time’.

You remind me of my mother/ex – Never compare your date with your mother or worse your former girlfriend. She is her own individual self. Tell her how she looks like the beautiful celebrity in the movie you like instead.

I have this condition – Do not talk about serious diseases you might have. This also goes for addictions. Do not talk about your struggles with alcoholism. There will be enough time for that later.

Politics/religion – You believe what you believe and so does your date. Avoid discussing politics or religion during the first date.

You look really nice tonight – Give specific compliments. Don’t be vague. Compliment her on her shoes, dress or intellect. Avoid general clichés. They sound untrue and make you look artificial.

Your place or mine – Slow down! Maybe she’s not that type of a girl. Getting intimate after the first date is not advisable, unless you don’t want a second date.

I need to take this call – During the first date, no interruptions are allowed. That call from your mate will just have to wait. Give her your undivided attention. No calls, texts or mail.

Lock up the creep – Don’t talk about your fetishes, 20 GB porn collection or how you kissed your male cousin in high school. When she is safely lying in your pillow maybe you can reveal how much you like black lingerie.

The first date is a safe zone. Safe topics and fun playful statements. Don’t be too serious. Make her smile and feel good. You won’t go wrong.
