First Date Tips - Selecting The Right Place

By Ernest G. Swank


If the media had its way with our social scene, then most of us would be sitting at home on weekends soon as we wouldn't be left with any money to spend.

The traditional way of dating as prescribed by movies and television says that you need to buy flowers, book tables in fancy restaurants, buy movie tickets, have a permanent membership at Hallmark, etc. Does it really help?

If dating were just as it has been described above, then it's basically a celebration of womanhood, as only women seem to benefit from it. The connection that people are looking for is not on the platter at all.

This system needs to change and it is up to us to change it so that we can actually hope to meet new people in a decent way.

A peaceful place with light music and quick bites is ideal for two people to have a casual conversation where they get to know each other properly. A coffee shop or a record store that serves coffee is ideal.

If arts and culture is what you think can help break the ice, then a museum is a very noble and viable option. It's also a way of letting the girl know that you have a sense of what's beautiful and valuable. Women respect that.

Now that the girl knows you and has an idea of how relaxed you are, it is time to show her how much fun you can be to hang out with. Keep an eye out for local hang-outs where you can enjoy your drinks over some live music or casual dancing. These places are ideal for second dates as by now the girl is already comfortable sharing the same floor space as you.

It's important for the guys to show how knowledgeable they are regarding the cool places. It raises the guy's coolness quotient high in the girl's book.
