BE YOURSELF. IF YOU CANT BE YOURSELF AROUND HER, THEN ITS HIGHLY UNLIKELY YOU WILL LAST LONG!

depends where he takes you lol. I know i probably wouldn't take my first date to the Cheesecake Factory but a local diner and movie or something would be nice.\n\nIt is also nice to try something active. It give you something to do if you and the other person are shy and don't talk alot. It could reduce awkward moments.

Do something where there is an activity, like bowling or the zoo, a cultural fair, a museum, the beach. That way their is stuff to talk about besides each other and the weather, and stuff to look at and pay attention to besides -- each other and the weather. If you go to a movie or concert, then you are just sitting near each other, not really getting to know each other any better.\n\nSome sort of food should be a part of every date.

I kiss on the first date.\nBut I don't go farther than that.\nUnless I just want a hook-up.

I think talking first to people he/she can trust and who will make her/him feel comfortable, or talking about easy things first. \nMay be first through jokes. \nTwo glasses of wine...\nIt could have a relation with confidence (either towards others , either toward oneself), so to build confidence?\nReally difficult to answer.\nVery interesting question !

im assuming the conversation thing wouldnt be that much different between straight and gay relationships. \n\nnot sure if you already know them or not but if you dont i normally approach them with a little nonhurtful bust. \n\nex- (if a girl has high heels on) ill approach \nwow whats the deal with the shoes.\nwhat do you mean\nnothing.. they sharp\nohhh thank you.\nno.. that actually wasnt a complement ... i mean theyre sharp.. like could kill someone sharp.. so your like what 4'2 without those, right?\nthis sets you up as a challenge, original, starts a conversation and shows your confident. \n\nIf you already know them a couple of key points \nPeople are attracted to confidence. \nPeople are attracted to humor.\nPeople want what they cant have.\nPeople also love mystery.\nNot to mention talking about themselves\ni try to use these 5 concepts when trying to pick up someone\nwhether its your first approach or 5th date it doesnt matter really what you say nearly as much as the way you say it and the way you carry yourself when you do.\ntherefore.\nAct as your qualifing them rather than qualifing yourself to them. Unless they are stupid they will know you are interested when you come up or call back or set up another date (whatever stage you on) but dont be at their bekon call , make them work a bit to get you and give them gift of missing you. (obviously dont go overboard with this) \nadd a bit of confident humor in it. and give them some mystery by not talking about yourself much at all. if they ask tons of questions just answer them with what they would want to hear then funny it up \nex. so how many guys are you dating right now..\n- none..... my wife really gets jealous easily.\nor if they are really pushing this works great on women so i assume the opposite would be true.\n(insert nosy question here)\n"one thing youll find about me is i dont play 20 questions... i prefer truth or dare..... and im afraid you're just not that lucky"  see,... confident, sexual ref but not perverted, funny and sets you up as a challenge. \n\nuse these and he will probably ask you out. if not definetly shouldnt abject to a cup of coffee. good luck man. you'll do fine

I'm guessing you're a girl from your nickname and avatar. \n\nAs a guy, I can tell you that there is nothing more frustrating than a girl who just expects everything to be done for her, and I don't mean picking up the bill, which is okay, but just keeping the conversation going, and making some effort on your part, is a good thing. Asking what you asked just now shows you're one of the good ones :) \n\nIf you do some homework on your date, you can find out what he likes, and then take him to an appropriate place. Best thing is to avoid the awkward silence. Going to a museum, for example, is a place where you can start talking on many things. If that's too brainy for a date, you can go to any place you feel comfortable in, that gives you opportunities to talk(best if it's something you like to talk about). Also, make sure there is a place to eat near where you're going, we always appreciate good food. \nYou can make a good date out of walking in the park, if you manage to keep good conversation. That doesn't mean talking all the time, just keeping him concentrated, and listening. \n\nMake sure it's not something that will be interesting to him as much is it is for you - usually girls like the opera and and ballet and things like that, and most guys fall asleep in those places(if he says it's interesting, he's probably lying). A first date can be some place neutral, that he can like too.

Ask them about themselves.  What are their likes and dislikes.  Ask about their family, school, job.  Save the questions about whether or not they've been to jail for the second date.  ;-D

There are so many "worst" things a guy can do on a first date. \nHere's a short incomplete list:\nnot showing up\nshowing up smelling bad, looking god awful\nwearing dirty clothes\nnose hair\nbad breath\nno cash\nno gas\nno car\nbeing cheap\nstaring at other women\nstaring only at her boobs\nnot opening the door for her\nbeing mean\ntrying to have sex with her\nnot trying to have sex with her\nforgeting the condoms\nthe list goes on and on and on....\nBe aware that there potentially can always be something that will piss her off.

-Sex/gender stereotypes. Reverse them, and joke about them.\n-Romance cliches, and how much they suck.\n-Favorite foods. And what you both do with them.\n-How much you both hate sex, dating, and anything like that.\n\nDon't forget how NOBODY kisses on the first date. EVER. ;)\n\n\nAlso, when meeting people online: At LEAST have someone meet them with you, to make sure they're sincere about themselves. They don't have to ride the whole date out, but at least the initial meeting phase. That way, you have an escape hatch. And no, you're not "rude" for using it.

Aww im so jealous, i havent been on a date in a long time :)\n\nYou can talk about your careers and goals in life. You can talk about your hobbies and what you enjoy doing on the weekends. Favorite foods, if they like pets, if they have brothers or sisters, movies you've recently seen, vacations you have gone on or places you would love to visit. Think of things that are really important to you and ask them how they feel about these things. Most importantly, have fun and smile a lot and look into his eyes. And order a big meal! Guys hate when we order skimpy meals. Try to joke around too, to make him laugh. I hope you have a great time! :)

One that ends too soon.\n\nSometimes, you schedule a one hour lunch date or meet for coffee and it feels the hour will NEVER END!\n\nSometimes, you schedule an hour and enjoy yourself, and even like the person you have met.  They would be a good friend.  But they are kind of like 452 other people you know.\n\nAnd sometimes, you are ticked because an hour is gone, you are still talking, and you REALLY wish you would have scheduled 2 hours instead.  You really want to keep talking, but you stick to your original one hour plan and agree to meet again.  Soon.  \n\nThat, my friend, is the best first date.  Cost you under 20 bucks, short enough to still have some mystery about you...go ahead and pick out curtains during your second date.  But maybe you'd better do it without her finding out.

when u see new people...think about anything, look around and make anything simple interesting. when you freeze up, the best thing you should do is ask, so watd u do today, hows it goin, wats new, all those simple topics. once u get to know the person, its a lot easier to talk because you know things about him/her. its all about social skill.
