A Conversation for Surviving a First Date

Doesn't it depend?

Post 1

Surely how you approach a date is going to depend upon your own expectations of it?

People date for very different reasons, and in very different personal circumstances. Sometimes you're planning a secret and furtive rendevous, and at other times you want to "be seen" at the high school dance. Sometimes you're dating the love of your life and at other times you have shorter term plans. And in amongst all of that, you have to deal with what you think your date(s) are expecting of you. It's really a case of thinking about what you're getting in to, and considering the feelings of your date(s). Failing that, use of soap and water often helps.

um (Kandy Selsall aka Candi Nooks mum, um)

Aye indeed! but knowing your own expectations is not always easy.

If you are planning a secret rendezvous you would not arrange to meet in the only local village pub, and if you want to be seen you would not go to the woods by starlight (unless the astronomy society was holding a mass meteor shower viewing and/or there was a witches seance happening).smiley - biggrin

It's the bits in between that are the problem - and reminding yourself of what you would like to happen (subject to constant review of course)
