...First Date with a Girl Information provided by Disabled World - Published: 2009-02-12 So you successfully got a gorgeous girls phone number and it's time for you to go on the first date? Are you feeling nervous? Don't worry, guys. That's perfectly normal | The fact of the matter is that we all get nervous at some point. It's not whether or not you get nerves; it's how you handle those nerves. When you are on a date with a girl you hardly know it's always best to move at a nice pace and not force anything. There will be many openings throughout the night (if she likes you that is). Signals and positive body languages will permeate her soft skin. So you will know if she wants you to take a step further (inviting you in) or stay at bay (telling you to stay back). So how will you know if you are having a good first date? The first date is the most important date because it sets the tone. Does she feel like the date can go forever? Or does she keep looking at her watch and wondering why the time is moving so slowly? I will show you how to have the perfect first date and not screw things up. Follow these rules and she will ask you to follow her home... First thing is first... always be kind and respectful to her. I don't care if you think she is just a fling or a one night stand; treat her with some type of respect and dignity. All women like to feel cherished and appreciated. Compliment her on her beauty. Remember, she took the whole day just to get ready for the date. Let...

...own dates. I have had the experience of allowing someone to arrange a date for me, which has only solidified my feelings on the matter. Although there are some advantages in going on an arranged date, I feel the disadvantages are far greater. So when asked “to choose or not to choose?” The answer is simple; I say “choose!” In the world of dating, what I consider the “pre-date” stage is that period of time when you decide to ask someone of interest out on a date, choose the time and place, and work out the details. With a bit of luck they will agree and then with much anticipation, you wait and prepare for the event. How you initially meet a person will vary; it could be someone from your social circle, someone you meet by chance or even someone you have conversed with online. In every scenario, someone has caught your attention and you decide to put yourself “on the line” and ask them out. Not so in an arranged date. One strong advantage to the “arranged” or “blind date” is there is little to no “pre-date” effort on your part because the work is done for you by a third party. There is no chance that you may be turned down or have your pride hurt, because the date itself is a sure thing. Consequently, there is also no guarantee of any attraction on your part. You have no idea if any chemistry will exist, if you will have anything in common, and you must rely on someone else to know you very well. The date itself presents another set of issues. I find in a date of my...

...Anna Richey Opinion Editorial Dating vs. Hanging Out I met a guy in my class the other day and after some small talk we finished with “lets hang out tonight.” That same night a friend of mine introduced me to someone and that person called me the next night and set up a date for that weekend. Obviously the second person was ready to take action and had the courage to ask me out. There is a difference between dating and hanging out and both girls and boys value dating. Dating and hanging out are two completely different things. Young Adults need to stop replacing dating with hanging out and bring back the value of dating. The way my brother, Daniel met his fiancé is a perfect example of Dating. Dan is 27 and had just gone through a bad break up with the girl he thought he was supposed to marry. He had met up for conference with his friends where they discussed all their plans and trips for the summer. In the April session of General Conference, they stressed to young single adults of the need to date, find their eternal companion, and get married. After listening to the counsel of the prophet his summer plans changed very quickly. He decided to attend every FHE, Young Single Adult Activity, Dance etc and ask out a couple girls a week. He took out one particular girl named Tiffany to Airborne Trampoline Center in Draper, Utah. He noticed the blonde cashier on his way out and started talking with her (his date wasn’t with him). The rest was history; they are getting married...

...In March my roommate, Kaitlyn Foley, had asked me who I was going to go on a date with. I had no idea what she was talking about, until I was given this assignment. When I received this assignment, I was very nervous. I did not know when, how, or who I was going to ask. I do not have the confidence to just ask someone out on a date. I was also in this weird stage in my life, where my feelings were in “limbo.” At the time I was getting over someone I had really liked for a long time and I wanted to stay away from everything that had to do with feelings. On April 23rd, I decided to take a walk to Houghton Garden. As I was walking, I decided that I needed to know what I wanted in a relationship, before i asked someone on a date. I made a list of what I want my next relationship to be based on. I wrote characteristics such as, trust, honesty, support, love, humor, and fun. As I was making the list, I instantly thought of one of my best friends, Daniel Mann. Dan and I met on the third day of school and spent the whole day together. Then we found out we were in the Emerging Leader Program (ELP). Throughout this year, I have had the opportunity to get to know, what an amazing person he is. As I was walking back to Boston College, I...

...3/19/14 eng-111 How to Behave on a First Date Everyone has their personal opinions on how someone should behave on a first date. Now, whether it is for a male or female my top three things that a person should do on a first date are the following: make a good first impression , have good communication, and last but not least have some type of manners. A good first impression is all or nothing on a first date. I personally would not want to go on a first day with someone who looks like they just got attacked by a bunch of monkeys . On a first date one must look their personal best. What if you got asked out on a date with someone and on the day of the date they look super tacky and their hygiene is not at their and they just do not look attractive , right you would just want to leave and go home and call it the worst first date of your life. that is why first impression is a must on a first date. good communication is the key to a great relationship. So, why not get off to a great start by doing that on a first date. Don't be a rather boring person , both females and males hate having a boring date. spice things up have funny conversations about each other's childhoods or ask common "getting to know each other " questions . communication is great, it gives opportunity for both to express themselves and let each person see how one another's personality is. Last but manners are everything and more on a first date . once my friend and I went on double date. My then boyfriend...

...The First Date It was my first year of high school and I knew homecoming was coming up. At my old church I hadn’t been able to date until I was 16, but I had recently changed churches. My mom had wanted me to have a “school boyfriend” anyway. I really wanted to go to homecoming, but my mom wouldn’t let me go unless the boy asked. I knew a boy wasn’t going to ask me. I am not a popular girl and I have been bullied many times for my quirks. I was the weird girl that always sat and read. The girl that was excited for school to start up again. Made fun of for church, or for things out of my control, such as my Aspergers. The only time a guy had “asked me out” was to make fun of me. It was a couple of weeks before the dance and I finally gave up hope of a guy asking me....

...Explains: Can a Girl Ever Ask a Guy Out? By Scott Christian September 19, 2014 There is one question I get asked probably more than any other by my female friends: Can a woman ever ask a man out? And while the question maybe isn’t a rhetorical one, it’s rare that the asker doesn’t already know the answer. It’s really more of a test of the current cultural barometer than anything else, and the best I can offer on this one is—short answer, no, long answer, no but… Now, I’m certainly aware of how frustrating this reality can be, especially when a guy you like just isn’t doing any asking. And I don't necessarily agree with it and happen to really respect women who take the initiative. But if you want to know what the majority of guys out there think, then yes—it's better to let him as you out. If the roles were reversed and it was up to us as a gender to charm you into asking us out, let’s just say that the human race would have petered out a couple of thousand years ago. Yes, we are scared. And we sometimes fail to act, even when we want to. But the issue remains problem that when a girl asks a guy out, more often than not for the guy it just feels weird. Don't shoot the messenger! Success is not impossible—there are certainly some guys out there who would love it if a woman asked them to go on a date—but the reality is that, at best, you’re maybe looking at a 50 percent success rate. If you're still game to try it, here are four examples of how the whole thing can go down...

...Traditional Conservative Culture and Western Culture Victor Pinto Hudson Community College Abstract In the film (Arranged, 2007), it tells a story of two women who are going through an arranged marriage. Arranged marriage is something that is seen in traditional cultures, not really seen in modern western culture. Modern western culture and traditional cultures are very different. Patriarchy is followed in the home of these families, where the father sets the rules. Dating is also done differently. In traditional cultures, women have arranged dates with men, whereas in modern western culture people can decide who to go on a date with. Touching is also different, women from traditional cultures are not used to being touched by other men. They have little contact with other humans, unlike in modern western culture people are used to being touched by their friends or just shake hands when you meet someone new. Differences of Traditional Conservative Culture and Modern Western Culture: In the United States of America there are many type of traditional cultures people follow. There is a traditional culture that was shown in the film “Arranged”. Then there is the modern western culture that the majority of people follow in the United States. The traditional cultures seen in the film are from the character Rachel, who followed an Orthodox Jewish culture and Nasira who followed a Muslim culture. These two cultures may seem completely different to some people...

...prepared for at the time. There were issues that needed to be resolved before he could finish the hiring process. In order to do the job correctly he needed to go through all the steps that would need to be taken. Carl Robins is a campus recruiter for ABC Inc. he hired fifteen new hires that would work for Monica Carrolls, the Operations Supervisor. He found himself in tough spot and it all started out by poor timing Carl hired fifteen new hires, and he assured Monica the Operations Supervisor that all details would get taken care of and for her not to worry. When hiring the new employees, Carl had to make sure that all paper work was in order and that all files were up to date. He had a lot of work to do and quite some time to do it in. All fifteen new hires were initially hired in April, and Monica had called in mid-May to see about orientation packets and schedules etc. Things needed to get done and they were not getting done by the looks of it. Carl was stressing out and tried to decide how he was going to deal with the situation. To say the least, it was a matter of timing and how he used it. Carl had about thirty plus days to get all the work done. He had time to make sure that all the files were in order and that all the new hires had time to make sure they had the proper forms, and documents that could or are needed, but it seemed like he waited till the last minute. The time that was waited for the files to be over-looked was way too long of a time period to wait to go...

...Sarah Crement 11/13/13 Compare and Contrast Dating Then Vs. Now I asked my mom the other day what dating was like when she was a teenager. I was shocked to find out that almost everything she told me was different than how dating is nowadays. From what she told me, dating seemed to be very traditional and what it still should be like. The point of dating was to find a husband or wife. But now it isn’t like that at all. There aren’t any teenagers that are looking to find someone to marry. There’s even kids in elementary school that are supposively “dating”. When it comes to a first date, my mom said when she was my age the guy would take her out to a fancy restaurant or a movie. The guy would ring the doorbell to get her and then have to speak to her parents first before they left. Sometimes on dates the guy would buy her flowers or a gift of some sort. And of course the guy would always pay for whatever they did. Now when it comes to dating, instead of going out somewhere nice, the girl is usually stuck at her date’s house. Doing nothing. Because the guy either doesn’t have money or doesn’t care about the girl enough to spend the money. Also, instead of being a gentlemen and coming to the door to get the girl, he would wait in his car and text her saying “here”. How most people met each other back then was through school, work, or maybe even parties. Meeting was always face-to-face because there was really no other way of doing it. But now I would say about 75% of...

...productive meeting Dr. K. Kuhathasan CEO: Cenlead Whether the meeting is conducted electronically or conventionally, its success depends largely on how effective the leader is. If the leader is prepared and has selected the participants carefully, the meeting will generally be productive. The meeting leader is the person most responsible for keeping the ball rolling. If you're the leader, avoid being a dominator, but don't be so passive that you lose control of the group. If the discussion lags, call on those who have not been heard from. Pace the presentation and discussion so you will have time to complete the agenda. As time begins to run out, interrupt the discussion and summarize what has been accomplished. Another leadership task is either to arrange for someone to record the proceedings or to ask a participant to take notes during the meeting. As the leader, you are also expected to follow the agenda; participants have prepared for the meeting on the basis of the announced agenda. However, don't be rigid. Allow enough time for discussion and give people a chance to raise related issues. If you cut off discussion too quickly or limit the subject too narrowly, no real consensus can emerge. As the meeting gets under way, you will discover that some participants are too quiet, others too talkative. To draw out the shy types, ask for their input on issues that particularly pertain to them. You might say something like "Sunil, you've done a lot of work in this area. What do you...
