subject: Don't Expose Yourself Too Much on the First Date [print this page] Don't Expose Yourself Too Much on the First Date
Do not in any circumstances expose yourself fully on the first date. No I am not talking about taking any clothes off, although that may be another tactic that won't prove too fruitful. I am talking about exposing everything about yourself on the first date. If you don't personally know your date yet, then you must ensure you keep something back for yourself. Don't talk too much about things you know she's not interested to.
If you start talking about your family problems and your ex-boyfriends, you will simply scare off your date. They want fun light topics to talk about over dinner, not how many times you argued with your mum last week. The same goes for talking about your flaws and your work problems. Your date generally just will not care. So to get in her good books, stay away from the heavy personal topics, and make the most of the light fun topics.
Talking about life's interesting facts and other general relationship conversations, e.g. who lies more men or women? Are much more informative and fun ways to initiate conversation. Your first impression is everything when it comes to a first date. They are the lasting impression your girl will always have of you if you make it past the first date. Whilst dressing to impress you need to impress her with your conversational wit and topics.
Nowadays women look more into a man's personality than just his looks especially when they get over 25. They look into the full round package. The way you dress, your compatibility, how much money you earn and even what you talk about on a first date. If you start talking about sport and men's topics, it will inevitably turn her off. But if you show some sensitive manly side by speaking of things that she will be interested in, you will stand yourself in good stead for the future.
Overall what you say on the first date won't win your girl over completely, but it can certainly knock you out the frame permanently. You have everything to lose but don't let the pressure get to you, make sure you keep those conversation topics light. Whilst doing so it is imperative that you don't take up all the limelight, let her talk and listen to what she has got to say. If you are ignorant and self-absorbed, you will get turned down by the majority of women.
