How to Get a Second Date

Assuming you want to see your date again, here are some tried and true tips for obtaining that elusive second date.

1. Always maintain your sense of mystery!

2. Do not invite your mom (or any other relative or close friend).

3. Express interest, but only when genuinely interested.

4. Let them know you would like to see them again, but DO NOT smother them with calls/texts/etc.

5. Do not sleep with them. That is the definition of a one-night stand.

6. Under no circumstances should you discuss former boy/girlfriends.

7. Do something interesting. Good first dates include: picnics, going to the zoo, going to an art show, or even playing board games. Be creative. It should be memorable and fun and give you the chance to get to know each other.
