When you’re trying to make a good impression on a first date, there are some things that you should never do. Man or woman, doing any of these things is almost guaranteed to make sure that the other person won’t want to see you again.
Don’t be late – Being late is rude and disrespectful. It tells the other person that you don’t care enough about meeting them to bother being on time. Don’t be late. It’s just that simple.
Now, if an emergency arises, like you got into an accident on the way to the meeting place, or you got lost, or something of that nature it’s understandable to be late. Sometimes, things do happen that can make you late.
But if that happens you need to call the other person as soon as you know you are going to be late and explain what happened. Together, you can decide if you want to reschedule or if the other person will wait for you to arrive.
Don’t ask questions that are too personal, remember that you have really just met the other person. Don’t ask questions that might make the other person uncomfortable. Don’t discuss sex or ask any questions about sex.
Don’t discuss controversial subjects – Have you heard the old adage that you shouldn’t discuss religion or politics at a party? Well, the same goes for a first date. Leave the discussion of serious topics that might be sensitive for when you know the other person better.
Don’t run away – Even if you don’t find the other person attractive when you meet, you should never just leave. Don’t sneak out when that person is in the restroom or away from the table. Don’t pretend to get a phone call and dash out.
If you really don’t find the person attractive and feel that you can’t even sit and have a cup of coffee and talk with that person for a little while then you need to tell the person that you’re sorry but you just don’t see any future for the two of you and leave.
Even if you don’t find the other person attractive after you meet you should still be kind and respectful. There’s no need to be mean about it, just tell them the truth.
