Be open-minded when dating. Instead of going out for dinner, set up a nice candlelight dinner at home. This is not only the more impressive option, but the cheaper one as well. Make an agreement with your roo...…

Watch your language! Swearing and bad grammar will not impress your date, either. Using foul language around a woman may be construed as meaning you don’t have much respect for her. Act natural but not too natural. Talk to your date as you would to a friend. You can try and make her laugh by telling her jokes or funny stories but avoid inappropriate stories about your past, anything sexual and especially don’t talk about your ex. Also, you need to listen to her even if her enthusiasm for something doesn’t interest you, just smile and give her your undivided attention which means to turn off your cell phone or put it on silent so you’re not distracted.…

I luckily talked a girl I am talking to, to come with me since she wasn’t doing anything else. Not gonna lie, I told her we were going for Rita’s and then going to see the movie Grown Ups; totally lied. At first she was really pissed at me,…
Even though it is hard to find a weakness in my communication skills I would have to say it is speaking too much. I feel as if every conversation, every text I sent I add to it where I shouldn’t have. I am hoping that I could learn how to cut things out so that I don’t feel like I’m boring the person I’m speaking…
Throughout their article “16 things you should never say when you meet someone new” Jacquelyn Smith and Rachel Gillett analyze the key ideas that should be avoided in a first time conversation. These ideas are very important to avoid in any conversation, especially in a conversation, while someone doesn’t know much about the individual in the first place. The majority of those I have heard of before, but they serve as a vital reminder to not let these slip in a conversation.…
Whether you're meeting for coffee or dinner, you should let someone know where you'll be. If the date isn't going well, have a prearranged signal for your friends or family to let them know there's a problem.…
If you find yourself trapped on a bad date, follow these steps to help you escape. First of all, tell your date that you need to go to the restroom, and excuse yourself. Once in the restroom, call a friend. When the friend gets on the phone, explain to her what is going on, and instruct her to give you a call in ten minutes and then hang up on that friend. After hanging up, you have just a few minutes to think of the pretend conversation you are soon going to be having with that friend. Next, go back out to the dinner table, couch, Movie Theater, just wherever you were to start. Then the few minute wait is on. When the phone rings, act like you just really don’t want to answer it, but you have to. Right before you think it is almost time you’re your voicemail to pick up, answer it and Listen for a few seconds and then say, “OH MY GOSH! REALLY? Uh huh uh huh. “I WILL BE THERE AS FAST AS I CAN!” Once you hang up the phone, explain to the date, the horrible news that is requiring you to end the date. I normally use the excuse that my best friend just caught her husband cheating, but there are several good excuses. I am sure he/she will seem upset, but there is no sense in leading someone on right! Remember, if you didn’t take your own vehicle to the date, you will need him/her to bring you to your vehicle, so try not to be too rude, or the ride will be very uncomfortable. Finally, once you make it to your ride, if he insists on a kiss, lean in for that side hug and remove yourself quickly. If you strictly follow these steps, I guarantee that you will be able to escape a bad date. Soon after he/she leaves, plan for the text or call inviting you on another date. The best response to this would be to just say you are not really interested. Saying you aren’t interested sounds harsh, but it will keep you from ending up in the same predicament…

There are various ways to make a good first impression. But in my opinion, appearance, body language, and being a good listener are the most important ways to impress somebody.…
The first absolutely awful experience I can remember from being an introvert, occurred during my 4th quarter during 7th grade. I had liked a girl named Nori for a long time and I felt the need to ask her on a date. At the same time, before I was prepared to, my friends were pressuring me into asking her. When I declined, my friend at the time, Stephen decided to tell me either I could ask her, or he would ask her for me. In hindsight, it was not a very good idea, nor did it help me get over my shyness.…
