10 Tips For Seniors Dating

First dates can be uncomfortable situations and they can end up being painfully awkward at the very least. So how do you handle it?

Below are 10 tips to help you and your date get started as painless as possible:

1. Drive yourself. Don't meet at each other's house. Just in case you want to end the date early, you'll have the option of leaving and not feel trapped. You'll also not open your self up for the impulse to invite your date in. Safety is also an issue to consider. Having your own car helps to insure this. You don't want your date to know where you live, especially if it wasn't a pleasant experience. Which helps to avoid a date turning into a stalking nightmare.

2. Keep it simple First dates can create jittery nerves. Jittery nerves and complex plans do not mix. Make it simple and fun.

3. Men, be as polite as possible when ending the date, express to her that you're interested. This first impression will make you stand out.

4. Women, don't wear anything provocative or too sexy. This sounds like an old cliché but first impressions last. Your date won't know anything about you except for how you look and how you behave. He will take you at face value and giving him the wrong impression on what sort of person you are is not something you want to do.

5. Try and wear clothing that makes you confident and that you are comfortable wearing. It will be uncomfortable enough without worrying about that tightness around your waist or the itchy necktie.

6. Men, try to be specific about where you are going for the date. This will make the entire affair more comfortable and it prepares your date for what to expect and what to wear. Wearing a cocktail dress to a fast food joint is definitely out!

7. Ask your date about himself/herself. A healthy interest in getting to know your date is a good sign to show. This means that you want to learn about and think of your date as an interesting person. Remember, the most interesting conversationalists are those who ask about others. Great topics are work, hobbies and sports. Just keep it light and conversational.

8. Try not to overdo the perfume or the cologne. Too strong and the scent can be quite distracting. It's very hard to complete an evening out if your date is dazed by the smell.

9. Mouthwash is important. Also, brush your teeth and bring a couple of mints if you're eating out.

10. And always remember... have fun and be yourself!
