Dating Advice

Lastly, you're going to write advice for someone going on a first date. Give five pieces of advice (e.g. You need to.../You should.../Make sure you...), and don't forget to say why.

e.g.: 1) You should try to show up on time. If you're late, then your date might think that you don't really care about them.

1) You should be interested in every conversation between you two, to show that you care about your date. They'll feel even better about you.
2) Try to not play hard to get. If they invite you to a date, they want to get to know you, so be friendly and responsive.
3) Make sure you're not vomiting words. You might say something bad on accident.
4) DO NOT talk about your ex(s). Your date will think they're not as good as the ex(s).
5) If it gets quiet, make a conversation. Don't let your date do all the talking.

1.Make sure you prepare your clothes before your date, and those clothes should be impressed. You must look AMAZING on your first date!

2.You should be on time to make a great impression at the first time you meet. If you're late, you'll mess up the date.

3.You should be yourself! Don't be fake, just being yourself. Everyone wants to know you who you really are.

4.Try to keep conversation LIGHT. On the first date, we shouldn't talk about the political or some of the environment issue. It's boring and not fun at all. You might make your date feel bored!

5.It's important to listen to your conversation partner. While she or he is talking, you should be relaxing and listening to your date. It's how to be polite and show your date that you interest!

1)You should try to not rush any aspect of the relationship building process because No one likes to be pressured to feel a certain way.
2)You need to show your excitement to see him when he comes to pick you up if you sincerely feel that way.
3)You should try to look your best and wear what is appropriate regardless of the occasion or activity. Don’t get lazy, ever!
4)You should stop worrying about potential paramours rejecting you for being too fat, too short, too whatever and you'll be happy.
5)Make sure you listen to your gut. You want to go into the date from the viewpoint of analyzing the situation with a critical eye

1. You should have confident in yourself. No need to be too shy cause it'll make her/him feel uncomfortable during the date. But if you're being lively and clear in what you are doing, it could be easy for him/her to get closer to you. You might share a story or some attitudes to each other which are good things for getting start to know each other!
2. Don't be late. If you're late, it will show that you're an irresponsible person and it's really rude to make people waiting for you! But if you come in time or earlier than him/her, it'll show that you're excited to your date and show your manner.
3.You need to take care of him/her well, even in a tiny thing because that tiny thing could make him/her feel good about you!!
Eg. Pour water in the glass or always have attention on his/her conversation. But don't ask too much because it could be annoying for him/her
4.Don't forget to bring handkerchief, mirror, lip(for female), money or other equipment needed to make more comfortable in your date!
5.(for Thai) You should share the bill. (aka. American share system in Thai) To make him/her feel that you're a fair person.
