Entering the dating game? A few simple do's and don'ts.
Don't
- See a movie on the first date — you need this time to actually talk, not sit in the dark.
- Take your date to a sporting event unless they're genuinely excited about it too.
- Hold hands or kiss on a first date. Leave a little mystery for the next one.
- Over-decorate for a romantic evening — keep it simple.
Do
- Get creative with a kiss goodnight.
- Bring chocolate — the cheapest, most reliable little indulgence there is.
- Give a small memento that will trigger a memory later.
- Write something, even a few lines. It matters more coming from you.
Above all — have a sense of humor. Things happen, and a good laugh can save any date that starts to go sideways.
