You never forget a first date<\/strong>, especially if it leads to a meaningful long-term relationship. But the happy memories of that first encounter are always accompanied by the unforgettable memory of that classic pre-date anxiety. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a look at these 6 tips for a first date<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1 Be yourself<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ever told a white lie to make a good impression? And who hasn’t embellished a story slightly in order to make themselves seem more interesting to someone? But ask yourself this: what kind of a relationship will you have if it’s built on lies? The first piece of advice is to always be yourself. Always!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#2 Let\u2019s talk about…<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

What do you talk about on a first date? Work, sport, hobbies, families, pets, holidays… There are countless possible topics<\/strong>, but the important thing is to find some common ground so that the conversation flows between you and doesn’t get boring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our second tip is to take a look at your date’s Yooppe profile<\/strong> or their photos for inspiration on what to talk about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#3 If you want the cake, order the cake! <\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Why order a salad when what you actually want is an enormous bowl of spaghetti carbonara? Why deny yourself a slice of cake because you’re scared of what they might think? If you want to enjoy a nice date at a restaurant, accompany it with a nice meal. If they give you a funny look because of what you’ve ordered, maybe they’re not your soulmate after all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip: the only no-no<\/strong>, if we really have to say it, is garlic<\/strong>, which might not be the best ally for your first (nor indeed, second, third or fourth) kiss!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#4 Don’t obsessively check your phone<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Avoiding checking your phone<\/strong> even for five minutes is a feat in itself. Smartphones are the technological extension of our own hand and checking the screen for notifications is an involuntary reflex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our advice: do everything you can to stop your phone being a constant distraction and don’t answer calls<\/strong> except in an emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#5 That awkward silence <\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When you’re starting to get to know someone on a first date, it’s normal for the conversation to dry up a little. And when you come to the end of a topic, that awkward silence is all but inevitable. Those few minutes suddenly feel like hours and our brain goes into panic mode: what do I say now?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The secret is always to have at least one ace up your sleeve. Keep in mind a couple of fun topics<\/strong>, like your favourite music, a concert you went to, a previous holiday or, even better, a trip you’d like to take.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#6 Oh, my ex always…<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

No, thanks. Talking about your ex on a first date is never a great idea<\/strong>.  Saying bad things about them suggests that you’re still bitter (and anyway, it’s not very polite), and in any case, a first date is not the place for complaints. Saying good things about them raises the question of why they’re an ex! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our advice is to look ahead<\/strong> and focus on the person you’re with in that moment, not on someone who, for one reason or another, is now an ex.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"You never forget a first date, especially if it leads to a meaningful long-term relationship.
