A first meeting can be an extremely minefield and misunderstandings can rain down to the point of making this first meeting an ordeal of misunderstandings. The first mistake is to be worried about not rushing the partner by being discourteous without knowing it. This stress of course can lead to unfortunate blunders or jokes that we would have been better off keeping to ourselves…
In this article, you will find 10 mistakes not to make during your first meeting.
10 mistakes not to make during a first meeting
I will pay but I don’t want to offend you
Underneath this considerate principle unfortunately hides in man an element of vanity and preconceptions. Thinking about what the other person might feel about this gallant act can lead to total incomprehension. Gentlemen, don’t be traumatized by the feminist cause, women appreciate it when you buy them a drink… And if the opposite happens, so be it! But avoid passing judgment by doing this kind of thinking.
My ex used to…
The person in front of you doesn’t care about your ex even if he or she has discovered a vaccine. Don’t talk about your exes, whether on the first, second or third date. It is necessary to show that the ex is ancient history, very ancient even.
Do you always dress like this?
In this question there remains an affirmation, the judgment is already made, the “always” implies an “alas” and that is how it will be interpreted. Do not use “always” in your questions.
Can I kiss you ?
If you want to kill desire, use this loaded phrase. Asking permission is a challenge that must be avoided so as not to break the spell. Let yourself be carried away and if there must be kissing, there will be. You just need to get closer.
I’m going to introduce you to some good music
By saying this, you are affirming that the person in front of you has rubbish tastes, and worse than that they have no musical culture. Even if you love music and know the lesser-known artists, don’t be boastful about it.
He or she will take this…
In American films, we often see the heroes commanding for the young lady, but that’s cinema. Do not decide for the other by calling the waiter or waitress to witness your influence over the other. If you are a man, she will take you for a cad who thinks he knows your tastes. If you are a woman, he will have the same impression as when his mother ordered him a Happy Meal at McDonald’s… at 15 years old.
When you meet my mother…
You might as well make a marriage proposal right away! It is obviously too early to talk about your family and to bring others into your family intimacy. Plus, it has a pretty scary side to being introduced to a person who has a special place in your heart. Wait until you are in love and especially until the other person is in love with you!
We should do…
It’s totally overwhelming to establish a schedule when meeting for the first time. The couple is like a prison where we agree to go for love and making decisions on long-term projects will only accentuate this anxiety.
With the current government…
What’s more boring than talking about politics on a first date… Perfect for breaking the mood, especially if your date doesn’t have the same political leanings as you.
You know religions…
Just like politics, religion is a slippery slope, spitting on religions or praising one’s god are not to be done when you meet someone for the first time, even if you have no idea in mind.
