hey guys
0:10
so for today's video I wanted to do
0:12
something a little different this is
0:13
going to be an advice video obviously as
0:16
you can see from the title and I'm just
0:18
going to give you a few tips on how you
0:19
can ace your first date
0:22
now I know going on a first date can be
0:24
very nerve-racking spending time with
0:26
someone who you've obviously never
0:27
really spent time with it's something
0:29
that's a little more intimate usually a
0:31
first date is one-on-one so you really
0:33
have to come up with some ideas and some
0:35
tips on how to really tie the date
0:37
together and to really impress that
0:39
person because I'm assuming if you are
0:42
going on a date with them you are
0:43
interested in them and you want them to
0:45
be interested in you as well so these
0:47
tips are pretty much common sense but
0:49
just they're a great reminder if you're
0:51
getting ready to go on a first date or
0:52
if you're maybe you're interested in
0:54
asking someone on a first date these are
0:56
just things to keep in mind and I
0:57
promise the date will go smoothie if you
1:00
take this advice into consideration the
1:02
first tip is show up on time whether
1:05
you're a girl or you're a guy you guys
1:07
need to be on time that's the whole part
1:09
of the first date is you want to make a
1:10
good impression being single your time
1:13
is all about you you are on your own
1:15
schedule but to introduce someone new
1:17
into your life you're incorporating
1:19
their schedule into yours as well so
1:22
being on time just shows that you care
1:23
and also that you're just a very
1:25
practical person if you show up late you
1:27
could look like you are a little high
1:29
means maybe it took you too long to get
1:31
ready or it could show that you're
1:33
careless and that you just weren't
1:34
paying attention to the clock you knew
1:36
you had somewhere to be and you didn't
1:38
make it there so being on time is always
1:40
the first step to having the date go
1:42
well number two my team surprising to
1:45
you guys but it's actually talked about
1:46
yourself when you're with someone you
1:48
cut a strike up conversation whether it
1:50
be about your family whether it be about
1:52
school whether it be about your dreams
1:54
your aspirations vacations you want to
1:56
go on you need to constantly have the
1:58
conversation going
1:59
although silence is fine it's sometimes
2:01
you don't want it to reach into the
2:03
awkward silence so just always have
2:05
questions to ask and think of things
2:07
that you want to tell the person as well
2:08
make sure the things you say about
2:10
yourself
2:11
are things that someone will respect and
2:13
actually enjoy hearing basically the
2:14
person you're on a date with doesn't
2:16
want to hear about what you ate for
2:17
lunch yesterday but they definitely do
2:19
want to hear about where you're going in
2:21
life and what your hobbies are
2:22
personally for me if I was on a first
2:24
date I would love to tell them about
2:25
YouTube not because I want to brag about
2:28
it but because it's something I'm proud
2:29
of and something that someone would look
2:32
at and be like wow she takes time she
2:34
really cares about something and she's
2:35
going after her dreams just make sure
2:37
what you say about yourself is genuine I
2:39
know you do want to seem like you're the
2:41
best girl or boy in the world and that's
2:43
why you're on this date with this person
2:44
is because you want them to think that
2:46
too but just don't go into the bragging
2:48
zone try and stay away from bragging
2:50
just be informational and say different
2:52
facts about yourself number three might
2:54
be pretty obvious but because we are in
2:57
a world of technology I think I should
2:59
remind you guys get off your cell phone
3:02
if you are on a first date with
3:04
something it is so rude if you're on a
3:06
date with them but you're talking to
3:08
five other people you're supposed to be
3:09
on a date with that one person not a
3:11
date with your phone as well like your
3:13
phone is the third wheel take them out
3:15
of the situation and you won't have any
3:17
awkwardness your attention needs to be
3:19
on the person in front of you or on side
3:21
of you however you guys are sitting or
3:22
wherever you guys may be make sure your
3:24
attention is on that person you're
3:26
having eye contact with them because if
3:28
you're looking all around the room
3:29
looking down at your phone just looks
3:31
like you're not interested and why did
3:33
you waste this person's time done you
3:34
know number four is let him be a man
3:37
don't be surprised if he offers to open
3:40
the door for you or if he insists on
3:42
paying just accept that that's part of
3:44
the excitement of the first date the guy
3:46
wants to take charge some guys will
3:48
actually get offended if you're too
3:49
aggressive and you're trying to take
3:51
charge it's okay to offer to pay for
3:54
yourself and I totally agree that you
3:55
should on the first date some guys
3:57
actually might not offer to pay so you
4:00
should always be aware that you might
4:02
have to pay for yourself but if he does
4:04
insist on paying accept it and for my
4:06
final tip last but not least lucky
4:08
number five that is don't fake a laugh
4:10
you can always tell when someone's
4:12
personality or their laugh isn't genuine
4:14
personally I can always fake a laugh
4:16
there's been times where I've been in
4:18
awkward situations that I just kind of
4:19
have to laugh about someone's joke but
4:21
don't force it if you're not if you
4:23
don't really find
4:24
joke funny or if you're not really that
4:26
amused just do a quirky little smile you
4:28
don't have to be outrageous and go on
4:30
this whole laughing spiel he'll know
4:31
that you don't think it's funny and
4:33
he'll just think that you're being fake
4:34
to him so I hope you guys enjoyed these
4:36
little tips like they said they're very
4:38
common-sense but there's just something
4:40
that I thought I would remind you guys I
4:41
know that it's summer and usually summer
4:43
has its fling so I definitely want
4:45
everyone to be prepared for their first
4:46
date and I'm telling you if you just
4:48
follow these tips you guys will have
4:49
smooth sailing and you will probably be
4:51
asked on a second date so I guess that's
4:53
it until next time I'll see you guys
4:55
later bye
