THINGS TO TAKE ON A FIRST DATE! (Pick and choose what works for you!)
- Tums or Rolaids (in case your meal doesn't sit well or nerves hit)
- Breath mints and gum (bad breath can shorten a date in a hurry)
- A small mirror to check your appearance and teeth for food particles
- An extra set of car keys (for pretty obvious reasons!)
- Chapstick....keep those lips soft and voluptuous
- A small list of 5 things to do on the date or talk about in case of awkward pauses, silence or indecision
- A small piece of paper with your date's name, address and phone number on it just in case you forget this vital information!
- Phone numbers to contact friends or family in case the date isn't going well
- A tiny (travel size) deodorant, cologne, hairbrush and toothbrush (in case a nervous nature changes your body chemistry)
- Extra money (in a pocket), including phone change, in case you lose your wallet or cell phone
- A condom (which, by the way, if you use, will signal your last date!).
- A couple of aspirin or Advil (in case your date causes more stress than he or she relieves)
- A smile, eye contact, a firm handshake and self-confidence that doesn't appear arrogant.
- A positive attitude! If you don't think you are going to have fun, you probably won't!
Remember, the primary goal of a first date is to lead to a second one!
