How To
How to arrange a memorable first meeting
Your interests and your desire to share are the key factors in a good first date. The most important thing to do is find common ground. If you don’t know anything about the person it is best to ask them. You should also pick a place they are comfortable in. It could be anywhere you like, such as a restaurant or museum.
If you have already talked about yourself, you should try to get some ideas about his/her likes and dislikes. You can, for instance, suggest going to a football stadium with your friend if you both love sports. If she/he likes to read books, you could visit a library.
Talking about politics, religion, or sensitive topics is not a good idea. Don't discuss your personal problems.
It is important to engage in small talk throughout the meal. This will allow you to learn more about him/her and build up a rapport.
After dinner, take a stroll or stop by a coffee shop. After you return home, send your family a text message saying thank you for all the time you spent with them.
