What do you need to know when meeting someone on a blind date?<\/p>\n

Social Intelligence<\/strong><\/p>\n

This translates to the ability to know\u00a0what\u00a0should and should not be said in a social setting – especially someone you are meeting for the first time. An example of a really daft statement:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you want to date me, don’t you think you should lose some weight?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter how much chemistry you had developed, this kind of insensitivity is an instant killjoy. Not only are you trying to change someone you just met, but you also portray a narcissistic streak in you.<\/p>\n

Discard Stereotypes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes, one\u2019s background may unconsciously breed stereotypic opinions on matters like religion, women, ways of life, etc. Be cognizant of your date\u2019s inclinations, and do not rush to offer opinions on how they should be, or live.<\/p>\n

Like, an idiot may tell a lady date:<\/p>\n

\u201cAs my wife, your clothes need to be a little looser\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI know you’ve been working for years in your career, but I prefer that my wife doesn’t work\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

If that date lasts to the end – she\u2019ll block your number.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Trust your instincts<\/strong><\/p>\n

What\u2019s your first impression of your date? Are they neat and tidy – clothes doesn\u2019t need to be classy – but do they seem like they made an effort to look good?<\/p>\n

Does your date give mixed signals? Like, one minute they are talking about kids, and the next they are saying how having kids \u2018ties one down\u2019<\/em>?<\/p>\n

The \u2018Tell Me about Yourself\u2019 line.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is an open noose, and people often crucify themselves. It\u2019s literally stumbling and falling headfirst into your mouth!<\/p>\n

Do not be tempted to tell every bad thing you could think about yourself. Do not let your date nudge you, if they say: \u201cso as to have no surprises later\u201d<\/em>. It\u2019s a trap.<\/p>\n

Do not show off your impressive porn collection in your phone.<\/p>\n

Forget that whimsical weekend drinking binge you often indulge in with your friends.<\/p>\n

Basic Mannerisms<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is hard to crack, and weirdly, it\u2019s basically who we are when no one\u2019s looking. Show less enthusiasm, and cultivate restrain during conversation.<\/p>\n

If the man says something funny, do not shout: \u201cShut the f*** up!<\/em>\u201d No matter the chemistry, this is not your neighbor whom you\u2019ve known for decades.<\/p>\n

The Ex-Factor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ignore your ex, no matter how fond or distasteful their memories are. It shows insecurity, if one rattles on and on about their ex. The psycho\u2019s will sometimes call their exes to gloat over a new catch – YOU.<\/p>\n

Run!<\/p>\n

Money issues<\/strong><\/p>\n

A definite red flag is when your date asks at your first dinner how much money you make. That screams gold-digger, or a materialistic person. Love comes last.<\/p>\n

Personal security<\/strong><\/p>\n

The basic rule is arrange a blind date in a public place. This can be a restaurant, a nature walk in a busy public park or beach. Reject suggestions to meet in homes or cars.<\/p>\n

If possible, you can arrange for a trusted friend to hang out nearby as you make first contact. After you are comfortable with the date, you can give a pre-arranged \u2018Am Safe\u2019<\/em> signal.<\/p>\n

Avoid expensive jewelry or accessories. Leave the Rolex at home.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also important to avoid cash, as most decent restaurants have cashless means of payments.<\/p>\n

Digital banking has made this easy.<\/p>\n
