So you finally got up the courage to ask a girl out, and she said “yes”. Great news!
Unless of course you have no idea where to go and what to do on your date. Worse yet, some people are so afraid of that dreaded conversation dead zone, that they won’t even go out on a date.
Getting a girl to go out with you is traumatic enough for most guys. But this can be even worse. Sure, we’ve all been there. You remember those awkward first moments on a date with someone you don’t really know. What will you possibly talk about? Who will go first? What if you say something stupid? Will she ever go out with you again?
STOP! That kind of thinking is going to leave you single forever, so cut it out. Going on a date should be fun and exciting, not terrifying!
Here’s a question from Omar who is facing this very dilemma with a young lady he just asked out on a date. Omar is from the UAE, so there are some cultural differences concerning formality and dating, but the question remains.
How can you know for sure that you won’t sit there in awkward silence, hoping for your date misery to end?
Dear Dan and Jennifer,
This is the first time for me to check out a video of yours, and I think they’re great.
My question is that two weeks ago I asked a girl if she would be my girlfriend and she agreed (I’ve been talking with her for a few months). Then, I told her I’ll ask her out soon, but till now I didn’t only because I just can’t find the things to talk with her about on the date.
So if you would please help me and give me some hints about what to say on the date so I don’t get stuck. Thanks for reading my message.
— Omar (United Arab Emirates)
