What do you say?<\/p>\n<p>The trouble with first dates is that you never know what the other person is thinking.\u00a0 You might think it was amazing but they just weren&#8217;t feeling it.\u00a0 In fact, they are probably also wondering what to do next.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, always thank them. It&#8217;s just polite. You only need to send a quick text when you get home.<\/p>\n<p>There are now three possible paths:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">You aren&#8217;t sure if you want to see them again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Life isn&#8217;t easy and you might well have mixed emotions about a date. I&#8217;d always sugget a second date if you are undecided but you&#8217;ll need time to think it over. \u00a0 Leave it 24 hours to think carefully about it and then go on to one of the next two steps.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">You want to see them again<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Excellent!\u00a0 Let them know you thought it went well and you&#8217;d like to see them again.\u00a0 Assuming they liked you too, they&#8217;ll be pleased to have their minds put at rest. Make sure you arrange a second date around one week after your first one.\u00a0 Any later and you&#8217;ll forget the connection, any sooner and you might burn out too quickly!\u00a0 It can be hard to find things to say if nothing new has happened in the time you&#8217;ve been apart.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">You don&#8217;t want to see them again<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s hard line between being hurting someone&#8217;s feelings and making it clear you don&#8217;t have a future.\u00a0\u00a0 However, I&#8217;d always advise letting them know this quickly so they don&#8217;t hold out hope of further dates.\u00a0 It&#8217;s\u00a0 best to be honest but if you can&#8217;t, tell them you thought they were cool but reminded you too much of your brother or sister.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes you just won&#8217;t hear from them again. They&#8217;ll disappear and you&#8217;ll never hear from them again. You&#8217;ll never quite know why but when this happens be happy that you had a narrow escape and get back on track and start dating new people.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Dating,<\/p>\n<p>James Preece &#8211; The Dating Guru<\/p>\n<p>www.asiansinglesolution.com<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ok, so you went on a first date and are wondering what to do now.
