2. Dating makes an otherwise monotonous life fun. You
don't have to be in the dating scene simply to find your
one true love. You might just want to have a go at online
dating or you might meet people through friends or in a
bar and agree to give the proposed date a chance.
Whatever your reason, you should be out enjoying
yourself at any age.
3. Maybe you just want to go on some dates to keep
yourself feeling sane after a breakup (we should all live
by the saying, "the best revenge is living well", after all).
Whatever the reason, it's still important to make a good
first impression, create a fun atmosphere and show each
other the best sides of each other. Here are some top
dating tips to give you some direction:
4. Feel comfortable in your clothes but look good: this
shows that you want to make an effort to impress and
will immediately make you feel more confident when
their body language shows that they are impressed.
There's no need to dress to the nines but go one step
further with your dress than you might have done
ordinarily;
5. Talk about them by asking questions and look them
straight in the eyes during conversation: self-
involvement is an attraction killer even if you do think
you are the big cheese. During the date you are going to
be assessed without either of you realising it - in each
others' minds you will evaluate whether and how much
you want to see each other again and whether you could
have a successful relationship. Nerves may prevent you
from remembering these points so try and trigger
yourself every so often to ask whether it's been only you
talking for the past 10 minutes. Then look across at the
other person, gaze into their eyes and feel the power of
your eye-contact, a brilliant top tip for
6. scoring attraction points. And when you find that you
have been talking about something you like for a while
or an opinion, ask them what they think about it
afterwards;
7. Be proactive in your approach to the date. Allow
yourself to do some of the work and make an effort to
attract them and then you will enjoy yourself! A clue to
whether you're not suited to each other will be if it's just
too much effort. However, you should still give all you've
got to make it a success and you just might be surprised
by what you get out of it;
8. ⦁Be confident. You don't need to be brash or try to be
the life and soul of the room but having a quiet
confidence about you will help the date go along
smoothly. Once you've faked it, you should find it easier
to be more confident. Try not to worry about making a
fool of yourself - this should help;
9. At the end of the day the most satisfying thing you can
do is know that you've been yourself through the whole
process. Then if you end up meeting someone, you
know they're the right person for you. However, if you
just want to have a good time and go on lots of dates,
remember that you should let the other person have a
good time too!
