The Do's and Don'ts While Out on a Date

By Sienna Nalin


Dating is tricky, but the first thing to always remember is have manors and act in a way that does not embarrass yourself. You do not want your date leaving and calling his or her friends saying, "they ate like a total pig!". Your date should be leaving saying they want to go on another date with you because you were so well behaved and know the proper date etiquette. This is some helpful date advice that you are about to get, so take notes. (Image by Miroslav Petrasko via Flickr)

Below are a few tips, a couple of insights and, hopefully, some etiquette on dating.

In the case of a first date, remember that your date will figure out how the rest of the date will go in a matter of minutes. With that being said, be yourself and act like a lady or a gentlemen.

Be polite and put your phone away. In this day and age many people are glued to their phones. Do not be that person that is out on a date with their phone instead of with the person they came with ... their date! I've heard many stories of guys saying that the girl they were going out on a date with was on her phone the entire time.

It is time to eat, so eat as you would in front of your grandmother. By that I mean don't be a sloppy eater that let all their table manners just fly out the window. This does unfortunately tell a lot about you.

[Men only] So you made it all the way through dinner without incident. You were clever, charming and she still approves. Now it's time to pay the bill. Although chivalry is a dying art, the man should pay because it keeps you out of the friendship factor if it's a first date.

Be yourself on any date that you go on, just don't be a rude version of yourself. As everyone's parents have taught them, treat those as you would want to be treated. So while out on a date treat that person how you would want to be treated and everything should go smoothly.
