Choosing The Best Place For Your First Date

Let’s assume for a minute that you have met a great person and that you want more than a one-
night-stand. You want to have a good time with them because you want to develop a long-term
relationship.

I believe that there isn’t a perfect general place for all first dates, just the perfect place
for you and your future date. One where you have been with your ex date and it was great, could be a wrong choice for your date with a new person.

Make sure your first date will be a success choosing the right place. There are some rules and criteria that will help you to make the best decision:

1. For your very first meeting it is suggested that you only make it brief but fun, inexpensive and relaxing.

2. Chose the place for the first date according your date’s age and lifestyle. Maybe you don’t know too much about them but you can make an educated guess by looking to how they are dressed and watching the type of people they are hanging around.

3. An exit plan for both guys and girls is always useful.  Particularly on a first date, you may wish to leave early, or so may they.

4. Dates that will make you interact with the other person and share both your interests will not only teach you more about them, but also show how compatible you actually are. Sporting events, concerts and picnics are great places for first dates. You can talk, and being outside, everything feels less claustrophobic. It’s easy  and relaxed and clothing usually isn’t a problem.

5. It makes a difference if you can find something memorable.  If there is an event like circus, carnival, festival in your area, don’t miss it and you two will have more fun than at a coffee place that’s for sure.  There won’t be any pressure.  You’ll only have to enjoy the company.

6. If you are dating late in the evening make sure that you walk in places that are safe. Don’t forget that they do not know you very well and being alone with you in a place that is not public can make anyone feel insecure. It is normal!

By being unique and creative, you’ll stand out among the others.
