Top Tips on How and Where to Ask Out a New Date
Some great places and ways to meet a potential mate are to join a club or gym, get set up by friends, try online dating, go to sporting events, go to concerts, attend church, adopt a dog to walk in the park, take a new class, and socialize at parties. The timing of meeting a potential mate does not matter as much as simply being active and socializing.
- Stay casual. Ask a potential mate out for a casual date for the first time (such as for coffee or lunch), and if that goes well, ask for a second date. Don't ask him to a movie on the first date. Choose something where the two of you can learn more about each other through conversation or an activity you both enjoy.
- Stay comfortable. Make sure you ask a potential mate out in a comfortable location or phone him at an appropriate time. It's best to ask a date out in private, not when he is with his friends or business associates. An obvious rule is to not to ask out someone who appears to be with a date and make sure he is not married or committed. If you ask someone out and he says, “yes,” make sure you immediately confirm a meeting time and place.
- Flirt. When you ask a potential date out, flirt. Smile, lean towards him, make prolonged eye contact, speak positively, and ask him lots of questions about himself. Most importantly, be a good listener. Avoid asking a potential mate out by email or text for the first time because it is simply too impersonal.
