Do you ever dream of going on the perfect first date? Well, welcome to the club. There are some people, those rare crazy ones, who enjoy first dates and in fact live for them. Of course these are usually the same people who don’t really like relationships and are of the one-night stand fan club. And while there’s nothing wrong with that, keeping everything safe and consensual, those one night stands and a lifetime of first dates is not our cup of tea. There are expert the desperados out there though and more power to them. Meanwhile, for the rest of us, first dates tend to bring with them a certain amount of anxiety and nervousness. This is typically due to the amount of hope and ambition that one might have for future relationships, and while the best intentions might be there, first dates tend to bring out the awkward, superficial and self-conscious aspects we all possess within us.
So, if you’re one of the many who possess a bit of insecurity and anxiety over first dates, third dates or beyond, the good news is that you are not alone. Okay, there’s actually much better news than that to report. There are some easy tools and a bit of skills that can help you master your nerves and actually enjoy that first date. Maybe even you can be yourself while on it. And while it might be as easy as buying that new set of Pacer wheels to spiff up your car, and yes it’s true that many people’s identities are tied into their autos, there are other equally appealing measures you can take. By yourself that new outfit or get a new hair cut are all comparable activities. Well, that is, for those of us who don’t value our cars above all else. And here I see our target population is shrinking.
Well, fear not, there are some other great measures you can take before going on that date. One of the most effective tools is your own power of imagination. And this doesn’t mean the ole imagine everyone in the room is naked trick, unless of course it’s that kind of date. But it is close to the same mental trick. For instance, you can pretend that you are reliving this date from a much later point in time. If you can progress the relationship in your mind to the point of being well beyond at ease and comfortable with each other and then play it backward to the night in question, you’ll see that all of your worry was for naught. Of course it might freak out your partner if you share this secret and let them know you’ve already gone and married them in your mind. However, there are many others and they all relate to self esteem support and remembering that whatever happens, it’s going to be okay. You were okay before you met this person and you and your life will go on, even without them. And if the date doesn’t work out, you still have those fancy new xxr wheels .
