How to Act on a Date (for Boys)
When going on a date, it's important to remember that your goal is to make your date feel comfortable, respected, and valued. Here are some tips on how to act on a date:
1. Be on time: Showing up on time or even a few minutes early shows that you respect your date's time and that you're reliable.
2. Dress appropriately: Dress for the occasion and the location. Make sure your clothes are clean and well-fitted. This shows that you care about your appearance and that you respect the effort your date put into dressing up.
3. Be respectful: Treat your date with kindness and respect. Listen to what they have to say, be attentive and engage in meaningful conversations. Avoid talking about controversial topics like religion and politics unless your date is comfortable discussing them.
4. Pay attention to your body language: Maintain eye contact, smile, and lean in when your date is speaking. This shows that you're interested in what they have to say.
5. Avoid distractions: Put away your phone and focus on your date. Don't check your notifications or browse social media while you're with them. This shows that you value their time and presence.
6. Offer to pay: If you're out for dinner or drinks, offer to pay for your date's meal or at least split the bill. This shows that you're thoughtful and considerate.
7. Respect boundaries: Be mindful of your date's physical and emotional boundaries. Avoid making inappropriate jokes or comments and don't push for physical contact unless you're sure they're comfortable with it.
Remember, the most important thing is to be yourself and have fun!
