How to Avoid Embarrassment on the First Date?
What a wonderful thing every first adult dating is. However, some people feel embarrassed and don't know what to say. So how to avoid embarrassment on the first date? Here I will offer you some tips.
It's best if you have a voice chat or video chat before meeting
If you met each other on dating apps, you should better initiate voice chat or video chat with the girl first. Now in life, almost no one calls. Everyone is using texting other than calling. But the "old" phone also has its advantages. You can learn more about this person through your voice or even face chat.
If you don't make calls, you can at least send voice messages, and it's best to hear each other's voices. This helps to create a sense of comfort between you and allows you to easily understand the way and tone of the other person's speech. This will reduce the chance of embarrassment when you first meet. In addition, you can feel the quality and education level of the other person from the way and tone of the other person's speech. In case the circumstance that he speaks like a "primitive person". You can also decide not to see him. You don't have to waste time meeting someone who can't possibly be your partner.
Maintain physical contact in a reserved way
When meeting, you can make eye contact with the other party with a smile, and extend your hand to shake hands with him (usually lasting for three seconds). When shaking hands, you can say "It's nice to meet you, we finally meet." If it is, the atmosphere will be eased and warm all at once, not so blunt.
Handshake can be said to be an action that people often use when meeting strangers in work and life, so this does not mean that you are too active, but the other party will think you are very cultivated. On the first date in the Western countries, both parties will hug and give a meeting ceremony, but if you think it's too "excessive", shaking hands will be enough.
Try to avoid sitting face to face
Remember our keyword "you are not familiar with each other". The first time we meet, we always choose some high-end restaurants to sit face to face, no wonder it seems embarrassing. Why bring such useless pressure to yourself?
For the first date, it is better to choose some relaxing and leisure places, such as a warm bar with a bar counter, a distinctive coffee shop where you can sit side by side next to each other. It will be more relaxed. It's just that two people can chat casually and get to know each other, so that you can avoid the embarrassment when you have nothing to say during the chat. At this time, you can look around. If you sit facing each other, your eyes will meet. The embarrassment can make people feel extremely uncomfortable.
