10 things that can guarantee a 2nd Date
I’m in the mood for a list today. Let me just point out that this list is my own.
Getting on with the list then — I’d agree to go out on a second date with a guy if:
- I’m attracted to him.
- I was impressed with how he planned that first date.
- I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation.
- We’ve got significant things in common.
- He made me laugh.
- He was polite and courteous.
- I felt comfortable with him.
- He’s a good kisser.
- He asked me nicely.
- There was a spark!
Okay. So, #8 may or may not have happened on the first date, but I simply have got to include it in my list cuz what if it did happen and he was good? But, of course, that’s not the only consideration, silly. There are 9 more points in the list, remember? Teehee.
And #9 is simply common sense. How can I possibly go out with someone who wouldn’t ask me out? Tell me. Tell me! Heehee.
What about you guys? What are the things you consider before you agree to go out on that second date? Care to share?

Actually I think it would be better to give a guy 3 dates to determine whether you like him or not. The exception would be if he violated one of your non negotiables, then just lose him. After all, sometimes a great guy will simply be nervous or say something that gets taken the wrong way. It isn’t an indication of who he is, just a poor job in the moment. It certainly goes both ways for guys to do the same thing, but the easiest thing for a girl/woman to do on a first date that works is so simple…….smile. It works better than anything else.

Good on you, Ron.
Bob, I reckon it is only fair to give the guy a chance to “get comfortable” with you, however, my thoughts are (1) getting to the second date will depend on the first so there will be a decision involved, (2) that decision will depend if you “liked” the experience enough to go through it again, and (3) dating is always subjective — there’s no exact formula, i.e. 3 dates are enough to make a sound judgment.
I guess, when it comes to dating, I put a lot of weight on the first date simply because I wouldn’t want to waste his time nor mine.
I’m curious… there are women out there who don’t smile when dating someone for the first time? Unbelievable.
