First dates are like job interviews for some, but it should be exciting!  Here are the ONLY rules you ever need to know to make your first date a success!

• If all else fails, wear red lipstick

• When getting dressed think 45% slut, 30 % girl next door, 15% fashionista and 10% teacher

• Be on time, waiting for you doesn’t make someone long for you, it makes them annoyed

• Just because he paid, doesn’t mean you owe him anything

• If you go somewhere else after dinner, for coffee or drinks, offer to pay

• Smile

• Hair down

• Doors should be opened for you

• Wear sexy underwear… just in case you end up showing them, better to be in the game then off your game

• don’t go to dinner starving and don’t drink on an empty stomach

• Charge your cell phone, but keep it in your bag

• Carry floss

• For god sakes, show some cleavage

• Wear perfume

• No matter how sexy your heels are, there is nothing sexy about pain.  Especially when you are only half way through the date, and you planned on taking the subway home….

• But I didn’t say you could wear flats, keep the heels cute  and comfortable

• Laugh at his jokes, it isn’t going to kill you

• Thank him for the date, even if it was horrible

• If you feel uncomfortable, leave

• Clean your apartment before you leave the house, just in case…

• This may be dramatic BUT if it’s a date from the internet, when you get to your location, excuse yourself to the bathroom, text or call a friend and let them know your location, No I don’t think all people on the Internet are serial killer, but I do think there has to be a couple sprinkled into the bunch… you don’t want to be on a date with that guy

• Wait for his call, it’s the only way
