Have fun..shaking that old hippie !

How about what NOT to do!

Don't make a quick judgement about your feelings towards her. As long as she's not a total loser or nutcase, take her out one or two times before you decide to write her off.

Be yourself. If you like to drink regularly, fess up. If you don't like to do some of the things she states that she likes to do, don't lie and tell her that you like to do those things as well. Sooner or later, the truth will surface...it's better to come clean now than have to explain it later.

Don't leave her hanging. If you want to see her again, tell her so. If it's comfortable for the two of you, you can kiss her goodnight; however, don't present yourself as desperate for a second date. If you really would rather not go out with her again, let her know...gently.

Don't belch, fart, pick your nose, or do some of the other gross things you might tend to do when you are alone!

Don't get drunk or so tipsy that you can't talk coherently or stand!

Don't eat garlic! It has a definite negative effect on your plans for getting close later on during the date.

Don't talk about your ex-girlfriends. It will make it appear as though you still have baggage and, trust me, your date is really not interested in the women you have dated in the past.

Moan and groan about things, your life, your job, etc. The date should be fun, not one filled with negative thoughts and conversation.

There are quite a few other things that you should avoid doing or saying on that first date...but...common sense should be your guide.
