Firstly, confidence is essential. Nobody wants to be with someone who looks as if they’re going to face a firing team. As you walk in for the date, hold your head high, shoulders back, smile as if it’s genuine. Confidence does not mean you have to be the loudest person at the party. It is about being comfortable with yourself.

Let’s now talk about conversation starters. “What do you do?” “So, what do you do?” is one of the most common phrases ever. Instead, say something unusual or quirky. Ask them about their favourite childhood memory, or what superpower would they choose if you could. These questions will lead to more interesting and memorable conversations.

Speaking of conversations, you should listen more than speak. Everyone dislikes someone who talks only about themselves. Show that you are genuinely interested in what your date is saying. Make eye contact and follow up with questions. You’ll be amazed at how far you can go with good listening skills.

Sometimes, body language speaks louder than the words. Leaning forward slightly shows interest, while crossing your arms could signal defensiveness or discomfort. You should maintain eye contact, but not stare them down.

Do not forget the humor. It’s the secret to a successful date. Start off with some lighthearted humor or funny stories, but avoid anything too dark or controversial. Laughter helps to build rapport and is a good icebreaker.

Dress in style but also comfortably when you go out with your date! Dress comfortably but smartly for your dates. You don’t even need designer labels. Just wear something that makes feel comfortable, yet still looks good.

Pick your destinations wisely. You can choose to go to a nice coffee shop, or even a museum that is interesting. This will be kinder than going to crowded bars where everyone has yelled at each other just so they can hear one another.

If things are going well, follow ups are as important as first impressions! Don’t forget to send them a thank-you text for their time, and let them know how much fun you all had. However, don’t go overboard by sending them messages every hour!

You should also mention red flags! If you see them being rude to the staff or checking their phone constantly during dinner, run as fast as Usain Bolt did at the Olympics. These behaviors don’t change.

Online dating apps can be a different kettle of fish. Clear photos are the key to a good profile (no bathroom selfies, please!) Sincere bios, without cliches (“I love to walk on the beach” won’t do anymore), work wonders.
