What NOT To Do On a Date | Life Hacks With Shannen
So I went onto my twitter account and started a #AskShannen and I was stunned to find that I wasn't even trending... THANKS GUYS, I thought you all loved me!
Well, anyway, some of you did actually ask me some questions (without the hashtag, y'all just @'d me instead) and most of them were actually regarding 'What to do on a Date' and I'm honestly surprised you all think that I've been on a lot, HAVE YOU ALL SEEN ME?! I actually don't want to give advice on what to do on a date, I'm going to do What NOT to do on a Date.
Anyway, let's get on with this.
1. DON'T OVER DO IT
This is a biggy, it's your first date, don't go to the fanciest restaurant, don't dress in a suit. Do something less fancy because you don't want to break your purse/wallet and the person you're on a date with ends up turning out to be a massive bellend.
2. DON'T TALK WITH YOUR MOUTH FULL
No matter where you are on your date, you'll probably end up getting a bite to eat. First rule and probably the only rule... DON'T TALK WITH YOUR MOUTH FULL. You don't want to talk to someone and end up blinding them because a piece of your food ended up flying into their eye. MOUTH SHUT.
3. DON'T TALK ABOUT HOW GREAT YOUR EX WAS
On very rare occasions, you may find that your ex was, and still is, a great person. However, on a first date, don't talk about 'great' they were because this 'first' date, will more than likely be your last with said person.
4. DON'T SPEND THE WHOLE NIGHT ON YOUR PHONE!
DUDE, JUST DON'T! I know you may find a funny meme, or a new 'Charlie bit my finger' video, but just don't look at them all whilst you're on your first frickin' date! Wait until you're home!
5. DON'T TRY TO SHOW OFF!
Don't be a vain prick and brag about how much shit you have, or that you have the newest piece of clothing or phone. No one likes someone who brags. You do this and they'll probably be thinking of ways they can kill you.
6. DON'T LET THEM PAY FOR YOU!
Unless you've actually made an effort to try and pay for your things and they've said no and that they're paying, then that's actually okay. Otherwise, PAY FOR THE SHIT YOU'VE HAD OR GO HALVES. Dickhead.
7. DON'T TURN UP LATE... ON PURPOSE.
For some reason, some people have it in their head that turning up early for a date is just... wrong and gives off the impression that you're wanting this too much - IT DOESN'T! In fact, if you show up late without a valid excuse, then you're probably not going to get a second date.
8. DON'T FLIRT WITH OTHER PEOPLE.
If you're on a date with someone, only have eyes for them! No one likes a fuckboy or fuckgirl.
9. DON'T SAY YOU LOVE THEM!
DUDE, IT'S YOUR FIRST DATE! Don't make them run for the hills, especially if you've just started to talk to them!
NOW THIS ONE IS SOMETHING YOU SHOULD DO
10. BE YOUR AWESOME SELF!
Regardless of what I've written above, just please be yourself. Whether you're an awkward sexually ambiguous nerd (shoutout to all you Dan Howell fans, he's bae af), just be yourself and don't let people get you down. Try and relax and just be yourself, that's all that people can ask of you.Be yourself, because that's the reason why the people that are around you, love you.
Now go get to your date and shine bright like a fucking diamond, you beauty.
All my love,
Shannen.
