Dating disaster can happen anytime anywhere especially during the first date. If you did not prepare for it on the first date, you are really asking for a disaster. Well, as the saying goes, prevention is better than cure, hence the best solution to a dating disaster is of course prevention. However, sometimes unpleasant situation does happen. Read on the following article to find out some of the dos and don’t to prevent a dating surprise and the to-do-list when things go sour.
Most of us would like to have a perfect date. We do everything just to make that moment special. We try to impress our dates with our signature clothes and confident look. We have a fight plan, a result of arduous preparation days before the big event. Yet when the moment arrives, we are dumbfounded. As it turned out, the date we expected to be special and perfect became extremely disastrous. So what happened? As much as we are prepared for that special night, we may have missed some important details. And one of those questions we should have asked ourselves is what to do when disaster strikes.
The first obstacle to a successful date is the gadget. You have prepared your speeches. Yet all these words fall on deaf ears. Apparently your date has his or her mind fixed on the mobile phone or PDA. Now you are not sure whether your date is trying to impress you with his or her wielding power and influence back in the office or just simply waiting for an important call or e-mail. Either way, it really is annoying knowing that your date had the slightest idea of the things you are saying. So you better make a move or that PDA will ruin your night. You can ask your date if he or she is waiting for something important. Your date will get the hint. However, if at that point your date simply would not put the PDA away, then it’s time for you to end the date. It’s not worth continuing.
Now here’s a big disaster. You ordered a red wine. The waiter poured in some to your glass. Trying to impress your date, you try to lift your glass against the light and shake it a bit to oxidize the wine. But as you are about to take a sip, an ample amount spilled over your white shirt. What a faux pas! All the previous hard work was destroyed by showing off. So how can you escape from that mishap? Are you going to rant about it all night and in the process start irritating your date? You can always put some humor into it. Lines like “I don’t want to be too drunk on our first date so I did what I had to do,” can put a smile on your date’s face. Remember that everyone can make mistake, even your date knows that.
Speaking of wines, there will come a point when you will feel very comfortable. You crack a joke, tell a good story and drink more wine. You and your date are having a good time so you totally forgot that you drank more than you can handle. You start to get tipsy, yet you don’t want to spoil such a good night. You try to act normal but barely doing it. Recovering may take a few minutes so the first thing you have to do is to cease drinking. It is also good to admit to your date that you had one too many glasses of wine. He or she would have noticed it anyway.
In short, some dating disasters can be prevented. What you need is really some common sense and the above highlighted guidelines. But when things don’t go as expected, don’t panic. Stay calm and try to fix the situation as best as you can. The most important thing is always pay attention to your dates and don’t be a self-centered person which means you are only talking all the good things about yourselves. Be sensitive and attentive to your mates especially when you may have say something which your dates feel offended. When you follow the above dos and don’t, you are on your way to a comfortable and pleasant dates.
