Last week, someone wrote in and asked me what kind of things are necessary for a good date. And I answered her question at Loveawake dating site blog. I gave six dating truths that everyone should abide by when talking about dates, planning dates, and analyzing dates. It was a perfectly good answer, and normally, I stop thinking about a question once I give it a good answer. But I didn’t stop thinking about this one. Even though humans have been dating for hundreds of years in some form or another, we still have so many questions. So I wanted to do my small part in alleviated the uncertainties by dedicating this Sunday’s blog to dating.
Below are the six truths I posted, but I’m going to expound on them a little bit to change them from simple truths into unbreakable and fundamental rules of dating. Read them, believe them, and behave accordingly. If any of these things seem new and shocking to you, it means that you’ve been dating wrong. Not that I’m here to judge! I’m just here to help! So let’s do this.
Six Fundamental Rules Of Dating That Everyone Needed To Be Reminded About
1) A date should be planned. “Coming over and seeing what happens” isn’t a date. This is especially true of a first or second or third date. If you’re asking someone out, plan an event. A movie. A dinner. A lunch. Coffee. Just something. Put in the effort. And if you’re being asked out, expect a plan and be angry if no plan comes together. Someone that fails to plan when trying to impress someone else gives a horrible first impression.
2) Going separately to a party and hanging out when you see each other there isn’t a date. A date involves two people. Double dates are great, and triple dates are great, and going to a party is great. But, at its base level, dating involves two people getting to know each other. And to do that, you need to spend some quality alone time. Explore the silences. Get a sense of the chemistry. A lot of incompatibility can be masked when you’re surrounded by other people. So get rid of that crutch and fly solo with your date.
3) A date should be fun for both people, so it should consist of a movie that you both want to see or a meal that you both want to eat. It is ok to talk about a date before you go on one. Figure out the food he or she likes and the films he or she likes to see. Even if you two really like each other, it’s hard to have fun when one of the people at the steakhouse is a vegan.
4) A date doesn’t necessarily need to involve fancy clothes, but both people should try to look nice. Simply put, look hot. Wear whatever makes you feel beautiful and sexy. Don’t dress to get laid, or to intimidate. Don’t dress in sweatpants. Whatever you wear should be for you, not for anyone else. The confidence you will have from looking your best will do more for you than any outfit in and of itself.
5) A date should be called a date. If one or both parties doesn’t know it’s a date, it’s not a date. If there is any question as to whether or not its a date, it’s not a date. So be clear. If you ask someone out, tell them it’s a date. If someone asks you out, make sure it is. As much fun for a hangout to turn into an unexpected make-out session, it’s a lot more fun to know what you’re getting into. Dates are known as dates by both parties. That’s the rule.
6) A date should make both people feel special. I don’t want to explain this one too much. Simply put, do everything you can to make the other person feel special, cared for, interesting and funny. If you do that for him and he does that for you, it’ll be a good date.
Take these rules seriously. If they seem foreign to you, take them very seriously.
