';First'; Date Tips with an acquaintance?

Hi I need urgent tips.. I asked a lady out and she accepted.. I called it a ';first'; date as I've been out with her to accompany her on lunch a few times before she got back with her ex.. Even before this, I just knew that I have to get to know this girl.. The thing is she has recently broke up a month ago and I'm scared that I'm a rebound guy.. I really am interested in knowing her though..





The date is in the next 2 days and I have been really out of touch in the dating world and require major help.. Neither do I know what I'm gonna do for the date nor where shall we go.. Also I'm thinking that it is not only nice but appropriate to get her a first date gift but I'm scared that she thinks I'm coming on too strong..





Please advice! Thanks...';First'; Date Tips with an acquaintance?
No gifts! 3rd date minimum is when you should take her flowers or better yet, buy her flowers and have them delivered after the 3rd date. 1st Date, Dinner and possibly a walk to a local pub that isn't to crowded or loud. 2nd date, Dinner again, and some live music with dancing. 3rd date, Dinner, a club with some smooth jazz, invite her to your place and do the do! Call florist the next day, send flowers with the note ';Thinking of you and our incredible night...'; Signed, Your name';First'; Date Tips with an acquaintance?
look don't try and rush her just be yourself and respect her and take her some where you both feel comfortable and have a nice conversation and see where it goes from there
If you don't want to come on too strong I would say first...no need for a ';first date gift';. Just keep it casual and enjoy the time you will spend with her. No reason to lavish her with gifts so early on.





I think a nice dinner and some drinks would do just fine...being in a relaxed atmosphere and having casual conversation might result in you finding out where things lie with her ex-bf. Depending upon how long she was seeing her last bf it will be hard to determine what she is looking for - if it's only been a month I'd take things really slow because I believe that 6 months of no communication with the ex puts you back on the market - anything sooner - I would personally perceive as an ego boost and having fun - which don't get me wrong it may develop into something more...but I'd go with caution - I seem to tell alot of people that being honest with the other person is my best advice.





You could let her know that you are very interested in getting to know her better but you aren't sure where things stand in her life and what exactly she is looking for if anything at all at this time and you don't want to be pushy - there's nothing wrong with asking! It's best to get it all out in the open from the get go using the right choice of words and demeanor.
1. Dress nice and brush your teeth.


2. Don't order her dinner for her. That's a terrible thing to do! Makes you look controlling.


3. Tell her she looks pretty/beautiful


4. Smile a lot


5. Don't talk about her ex or any of yours


6. Pay for her dinner too


7. Talk about whatever she wants to talk about. Don't focus on talking about yourself unless she asks you a question.


8. Compliment her a lot but no to the point where it's creepy.


9. It's ok to kiss her on the first date but don't go any farther than that or else you will be the rebound guy!
Take her out for a drink and a meal - don't buy her a gift, she may think you're coming on too strong..
just act normally. Don't be so nervous and never show to her that you really are prepared ( like holding a list that you should do).





But make sure that she will feel that she's really important for you. Make her smile whatever happens ofcourse you can add some compliments!!








OMG!! I know that you are nervous right now lol^^ good luck
Relax, if you don't want to just be a rebound guy and that you really want to get to know her, then, even if it sounds lame, make a list of talking points and things you would like to know about her. Think of it as studying for a test, you can't cheat and bring it with you, but reading it over beforehand will help avoid blanking out and awkward silences... if you're a good conversationalist then you won't need to worry.


Places to go: in the time that you've known her, has she talked about any restaurant that she has wanted to go to? Otherwise, just go to Applebee's, TGI Friday's, Bennigan's, or something similar. If you live somewhere warm, walk through a park. If not, walk through Walmart. j/k


Gift: Don't go over $4, think of something she has expressed interest in... like a specific candy or chocolate. Something that says, ';I'm listening and I care.'; It's all about making her feel special.


Biggest point: your thoughts should be about making her feel good, not about what you look like. Don't evaluate yourself. Girls love guys who are interested in them, so inquire details.
