Dating Tips
Hints on how to make it hot...
Choose
somewhere easy
Avoid
crowded places on your first date so you can spot each other easily. Maybe
wear something distinctive, although you'll probably want to avoid the
carnations or silly hats.
Tell a friend
Always tell a friend where you are going, and meet somewhere public for
your first date. It's also best to make your own way to and from the venue
- don't get your date to pick you up. After your first meeting, if you
don't feel comfortable, don't continue the relationship. Simple as that.
Don't
break the bank
You don't have to flash your cash on a first date, so why
not meet for a coffee or lunch? You can then decide if you'd like to spend
more time and money on another date.
Go
dutch
It's sometimes a good idea to agree to split the bill before
your date, so you'll avoid any awkward situations when the plates have
been cleared.
Be
considerate
If you need to cancel a date, call the other person in
good time.
Don't
get disheartened
You might not meet the right person straight away - don't
be disappointed. Relax, be yourself and most importantly, have fun. Every
week we attract new advertisers and respondents.
Make
it safe
Arrange meetings in public places, eg restaurants, pubs,
etc, not in your home. Don't give your address until you are sure that
you want to continue the relationship. Trust your instincts and don't
meet again if you have any doubts. On your first meeting, it is best to
make your own way to and from the venue. It is best not to accept an offer
of transport. Leave details of your meeting with family or friends when
seeing a respondent for the first time.These points may seem over-cautious,
but if the person you meet is genuine, they will understand.
