GirlsLife.com - 5 first date dos

Check these out, too...

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.

Hey Mary_16, I think you should give this guy a chance. Anyone can change, and it sounds like he has. Instead of dating him, just get to know him since you can't have a boyfriend right now. Become his friend and get close to him so when you are old enough to be in a relationship, you'll be ready. Hope this helps! Xoxo

I just found out that this guy likes me... a lot. My BFF told me. She also told me that he his too embarrassed to ask me out. So, he told her to do it for him. I like him too, but I found out earlier this year that he did some bad things and now I heard that he quit doing them. I said yes to him, but I'm not sure I did the right thing.
On the other hand, My parents don't allow me to have a boyfriend. I think that that is CRAZY!!!! I'm almost thirteen(I'm going to turn thirteen in May) and I can't have a boyfriend. Do you think I should reject the uy and do what my parents think I should do, or just go out with the guy behind my parents back.
PLEASE help me!!! I'm really confused on which decision I should make.

Thanks!!! Lynae P.

Hey stary20008, try talking to A more. When you have convos with him flirt a little. Joke around, compliment him, and ask questions about his interests. Whenever you're talking to B make an effort to join A in on the conversation. Try to sit next to him too. Hope this helps! Xoxo

So there's this dude I like (let's call him ) and I'm always mistaken for liking his friend (let's call him (B)). Is there anyway that I could make it seem like I like , not (B)? I'm won't ask out or anything like that. But when we are all sitting there having a conversation I don't want to think I like (B). Because I've had someone say that before and it was just AWKWARD. I talk to (B) a LOT more than I talk to so I have issues balancing out the fact that I like , not his friend (B). Any help would be great, thanks. Lynae P.

Hey mckey10, I don't think this guy likes you girl. If he did he would respond to your texts, call you and not be so mean. I think you can do so much better than this guy. He doesn't know what he's missing out on. Hope this helps! Xoxo

Hey PuppyCT, I think it's better to have a crush on a guy from your school because you actually have a chance at dating them. Celebrities are always traveling and have hundreds of girls chasing after them. Hope this helps! Xoxo

MOD MOD MOD is it safer to have a crush on a celebrity or a guy from school? i've been weighing pros and cons but i suddenly get caught up on one or the other. which one is better, celebrity crushes, or crushing on guys from school? Lynae P.

Hey Varchang, well first you need to look at the awkward moments or things in your relationship. What are those? I'll be glad to help you with them. Write me back. Xoxo

I really like this guy but he's a Freshman and I'm in 8th grade. But we are only 3 months apart age wise. Anyways, I had a bf and we texted like all day and saw each other but I broke it off cuz it just got way too awkward. Now I feel like I'm doing the same thing with this new guy! I dont want to ruin another relationship and make it all awkward. What should I do? Thanks! <3 Lynae P.
