5 first date dos

  • Puppy love? Puh-lease
With Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, the rush to find the perfect date is on. Although you don’t want to get your hopes up and plan too far ahead, there is nothing wrong with strategizing a game plan. Check out our gotta-know helpful hints for your special night.


Dress practical. Not sure where you're going for your date? Of course you wanna dress to impress, but you can never go wrong with jeans, a super cute top and a comfy pair of flats. Hiking in heels or bowling in a poofy dress hardly sounds like fun.


Dig a little. There' nothing wrong with doing some Facebook stalking – just don't admit you memorized his interests and posts. Awk. Be natural and subtle. Easy example: If he's a Hungers Game fan, ask him if he's excited to see any new movies.


No conversation hogging. Nothing is worse than listening to someone drone on about themselves for hours. Yawn. Make sure that you ask about him and what he likes to do. After all, if you're into the guy, you should be stoked to hear his stories, right?


Speed dial your BFF. Before you head out the door, a quick pep talk from your BFF can help calm some of your nerves. No one knows how to make you relax better than your partner in crime. That in mind, do not call or text her during your date. You don't wanna send the wrong image to your guy.


Be yourself! The most important “do” of all: BE YOURSELF. A boy will never like you for who you are unless you let him see who that is.

Okay well I'm 14 and my boyfriend is 15 and we were talking about valentines day. He hinted to me that he's getting me a necklace and I was not expecting that at all and now I have no idea what to get him! Do you have any ideas? He's way into theater and also loves the Mets...




Hey girlie,

That's so sweet! Try buying him a Mets baseball cap or tee shirt, then baking him some sweets (brownies? cookies?) and making a cute card. You could also snag a DVD of a production of his fave play/theater production and watch it with him, if that would make him happy! Smile Think about the things he loves and go from there!

MOD! What do i talk about with my crush on chat? There are always these super awkward silences where neither of us knows what to say,

 

Hey chica!

You could ask him what he likes to do in his spare time, what his favorite place to go on a weekend is, what you're into, musically, on tv, online or hobby-wise. If you'd like to hang out with him then when a thing both of you like doing comes up, such as go bowling or cook something, you could suggest doing that thing together sometime.

Hey fedorachick189, no I don't think it's too early to hold hands. He's your boyfriend so why not. And maybe if you show more signs of affection, e will. Hope this helps! Xoxo



MODMODMOD
hey, so my "boyfriend" and I havn't quite declared our "thing" as an official relationship yet, but we've talked about PDA (lmao)and spending more time with each other instead of being awkward about everything...he's kinda nervous around me sometimes, so he's not too good at showing affection; do you think it would be a bit too pushy at this point if I tried to hold his hand? We're 14, still newbies at this, lol neither of us have been in a relationship or kissed before Lynae P.

so i kinda luv my neighbor, weve been nest friends 4ever. but he is like, 15 months younger than me. im 13 btw. his b-day is 2 days after valentines day. wat can i do that is sweet but not obviously flrity? pleeeez help i have no ideas.




Hey girlie,

Personally, I'd bake him something super sweet for a present! You've heard the phrase, "The way to a guy's heart is through his stomach." Well... it's kinda true! Bake up some tasty brownies, cupcakes, or whatever his fave sweet is. Give it to him with a fun birthday playlist or a birthday card Smile It'll be sweet and could be seen as a "friend" move, but will also hint at the crush you have on him Smile
