What is the Best Way to Represent Yourself on Your First Date?
When meeting for the first time with a newly met woman, a wave of a happy anticipation takes over you and you probably feel some nervousness. The more anxious you are to make the best impression on a girl, the more doubts most likely take over. How to dress? What should you talk about? What scent of cologne to use? The only consolation is that most likely your partner is also nervous. She is probably thinking, how to best prepare for the first date and how to act, to look the best in your eyes.
Of course, the first impressions are the most important. That’s why it is really worthwhile to think over your own presentation and proper tactics to present yourself from the best side. Remember that a second chance to make a first impression does not happen : ), unless maybe, your chosen one has amnesia, but it is better not to count on that...
A chosen outfit is a very important issue and you should arrange your clothes to your style and to the place of meeting. You should mainly dress neatly and comfortably. Don’t try to forcibly dress up in things which you are not convinced yourself that look good on you. Try to emphasize with your looks, that the meeting is important to you, carefully iron all parts of your outfit and specially clean your shoes with detail. Many Polish ladies pay attention to shoes and besides people in stressful situations often look down so your feet almost for sure will be noticed.
When going to the theater or elegant restaurant, put on your suit or coat and matching pants. Choose proper shoes and socks to match the outfit. Many women go crazy over men in uniform. It could be possible that the woman, with whom you are to meet, is one of them. When going to the movies or bowling try to get an outfit that’s not restraining and is comfortable. Overly elegantly dressed for such an occasion you would look funny and not in place.
It would be good to contemplate before the date, as to what you will be talking about with your chosen one. If you know her interests it would not hurt to read something about this topic on the internet. Aside from this, think about a few topics, which you would like to discuss during the meeting but don’t try to forcibly realize all of them. Mainly listen carefully what the girl has to say to you, try not to interrupt. Word yourself nicely and with whole sentences and avoid using swear words and vulgarisms. Try to keep reasonable proportions between how much you say and how much you listen to your partner.
During the meeting in the restaurant or pub – eat and drink with moderation. Some people “eat” nervousness and if you are one of them, try to pay attention on the amount of swallowed meals. The same goes when it deals with alcohol – don’t drink too much of it, don’t add artificial ammunition with consecutive drinks because this could end badly.
Regardless as to where you made the appointment with the girl, absolutely be on time at the meeting place! It is better to wait a few minutes for the woman than to be disappointed, not finding her in the appointed place after the appointed time. Plan your road travel ahead of time, remember about possible traffic jams and take care of all things earlier, which could influence your arrival time at the appointed place.
It would be good, when making a date with the girl, to have some kind of exit plan, in case if for some reason the meeting in the planned spot was impossible. This is especially important in the case when meeting in the fresh air. The weather could play a joke on you and then the situation could turn out to be pretty uncomfortable. Besides, creating an initiative into resolving this type of problem, you will show your good organizational skills and capabilities.
The first date is a promise of something new and exciting. Be prepared for it as well as possible. Use your favorite cologne to feel more attractive but don’t overdo it because it could bring opposite results from the expected one. It is possible that your meeting is the beginning of a new adventure, maybe even a relationship for the rest of your life? So smile and try to be as natural and relaxed as possible.
