Have you been set up on a blind date by your circle of
friends? If so, then its time that you start doing some home work first on the
person whom your about to meet. Blind dating is mainly for people who have a
good sense of humor and can handle any situation in what ever way it comes to
them. If you are not that kind of a person who can handle to be stood up by the
person whom your to meet, then going on a blind date is definitely not for you.
However, blind dating can turn out to be a fun experience if
you know what to do. Here are a few tips on blind dating.
1.When you are going on a blind date is it very essential to
find the right location. A public place is the best option . You can go out for
lunch or just hang out over a cup of coffee. Don't invite the person to your
home and don't agree to go to his or her home too.
2.It is said that the first impression should be the best.
So make a right choice when you are selecting a dress to wear. Please don't
make the mistake of over dressing and wearing too much cologne. Ladies, avoid
the extra make up as you will sport a cloudy face. Importantly, wear an apparel
that will make you feel comfortable.
3.The waiter comes along with the bill and you both want to
pay! It is best that you both split the bill to avoid any confusion.
4.Don't forget to use your manners when you go on dates like
these. The mobile can be of real hindrance sometimes , so it is best that you
either switch it off or change it to silent mode. Using your mobile in front of
your date while he or she is talking to you is disrespectful.
5.When it comes to blind dating, those who have experienced
it will usually tend to get lost in words. They find it difficult to converse
with the partner. Before you set out for a blind date it is best to be prepared
as to what you are going to ask your date. Keep in mind not to talk about
topics such as religion or politics. Being friendly, a good listener and asking
questions is all positive ideas for blind dating. Ask your blind date about his
or her hobbies, interests, activities etc.
6.When you go on a blind date, it is best that you avoid the
intake of alcohol. Some people drink like fish and they tend to get aggressive.
So it is best to hide your lust for liquor.
7.It may be just a blind date. But there is certain things
that you should be aware of in blind dating that would put your partner off
mood. Like not maintaining eye contact with the person, can be annoying. Avoid
checking out other people who walk by.
8.Don't expose too much of yourself on a first date . When
you are on a blind date, it is best that you be honest with each other and talk
about things that would interest you. Don't crowd your partners head with long
lost stories of your past.
9.Never, never, never have sex on your first date. Remind
yourself that this is a blind date and you don't know the person. When you are
blind dating it can sometimes lead to physical attractions . Control these feelings
as your partner would not like the idea of making out with an unknown person.
10.The last impression is important too. At the end of the
date , make sure that you are honest and open to each other about wanting to
meet again. If you are not interested be sure to tell him or her politely that
it just wont work out.
Blind dating is a good experience for those who want to have
some fun and seem adventurous to try out various things that life has to offer.
For those of you who are planning a blind date , be confident and positive.
