It might be time for a bit of a switch·er·oo in the love department. Try stepping out there and finding someone to make the most of life with. Whether you’re freshly single or getting back into the game, the first step is a first date. This innocent yet sweet occasion can be quite nerve racking, but here are a few tips to impress your newfound love (courtesy of my experience in the love department).
3 Ways To Score On Your First Date
1. Be Open Minded
Stray away from having too many expectations. You’ve heard of opposites attract right? It’s okay that he or she may not have identical interests to yours. Instead, be open to new experiences as this works to broaden your horizons.
2. Stay Away From Researching
Ladies and gentlemen leave the extensive researching to the FBI and CIA agents. Avoid pre-judging before a first date as this takes the fun out of getting to know a person. Aim to ignore the things you know about them whether it be through various social media accounts or mutual friends in favor of starting fresh. Knowing everything, or rather thinking you know it all, can result in a tainted view of what to expect. So, allow yourself to get to know someone naturally.
3. Drop Your Baggage
Leave your exes in the past where they're supposed to be. An ex is just that for a reason due to an unsuccessful relationship. When moving forward with someone new, it's important that you avoid bringing your ex into the conversation at all costs. You're looking to turn over a new leaf right? You must be clearly over past issues in order to move forward, although sometimes hearing horror stories about exes can make for fun conversation.
