Special Someone: The Start of the Date

So that handsome someone comes over to your place to pick you up for the date. Note the time that he arrives. If he arrives late without a good excuse, he may not be taking you seriously. Practice your stare-at-the-wall-clock pose. Have that ready to greet him if he arrives late.

If he arrives early or on time, be a little in slow getting ready (ladies' prerogative - abuse it liberally). Give the guy some time with your parents. Let him get to know your parents.

If you are already out (he's late and/or you answered the door) make some excuse to get away for a while. Like you have to look for something in your room. Leave him alone with your dad for a few minutes. Give your dad the time to properly intimidate the guy into proper behavior.

Before leaving, be sure to hug your parents goodbye. It shows that guy (this is at the point of your relationship when he is still a 'that' and not yet a 'your') that you are close to your parents and that he needs to be close to them too if he is really interested in a relationship with you.

Also, anything can happen during the date. That may be the last time you get to hug your parents. :p
