(Heads up! Girls Perspective)I don't know if I can emphasize this enough! Sometimes having a random, spontaneous dates are always fun, but when you haven't really thought about it then the date becomes a disaster! I had the chance of going on a date last night. My date did have a somewhat planned out night. We went to dinner, learned a little ballroom and swing dancing, and saw a movie at the end. However, there were a few things that I noticed that guys should never do on a date. If you listened to my podcast you probably heard some of these problems already.
1. Never say that the date is awesome because you didn't have to pay for it. You should never treat a girl, or anyone else as if they are cheap. It's great to be frugal, but flaunting that in front of your date makes them feel a little worthless.
2. Always be a Gentleman! Even if that means you have to continually open the door for your date. Doing this will make them feel important, loved, and cherished. Yes I am independent and can open the door myself, but it's nice when the guy does it for me.
3. Never Leave Your Date! (Most important advice given) You are on a date for a reason! You want to get to know the person not leave them behind.What does that say when maybe you get married. To me, not very much. This tells me that I may not be cared for and that I will probably be left behind. Stay with your date, if you know them well, so what, continue to get to know them. Even if things don't go well you can still be really good friends. Anyway, that's just me though.
4. Take initiative! Near the end of my date we were getting ready to go see the movie, however my date and his friend decide to go eat some more food. So we wait and decided to talk to some of my friends while waiting, however, if you come back to me and say it's my fault that we haven't left yet, you just wait because I punch you in the face! Absolutely Not! I was waiting for my date and his friend. If you tell me that, then expect to a no as reply the next time you ask me out. For me personally, if you or anyone else wants to leave just say so and if you don't that's totally cool. I'm fine with that, you just have to say so. Dating is all about communication, not blame or fault finding.
So this will be my rant because this is something that I want my dates to do. Take the time to be a gentleman, to be courteous, to never leave your date, and to take initiative. I don't mind doing those kinds of things, and neither should my date.
So readers thanks for reading my rant today, please feel free to leave comments on your thoughts about this subject. I'd love to hear your comments, complaints, or whatever you feel. However if you put something vulgar or very unfriendly I will delete it. Thanks Again!!!
