Very important.

Getting Ready For The Date
1. Keep things in perspective, it is only a date. Your life does
not depend on it, whatever you may be thinking.
2. Give yourself enough time to get ready so that you can soak in
the bath or shower and contemplate.
3. Make sure you know what you will be wearing some time before you
get ready and do make an effort to look nice.
4. Play some nice music that gets you in the mood and makes you
feel good. Accompany this with a single glass of wine to mellow you
out.
5. Make sure you know where you are going and what time you need to
be there and make sure you know where you are going and how you are
going to get there. Book a cab with time to spare.
6. Quality Aftershaves, colognes and perfumes only please and do
not over do things. Whilst your own nostrils may not be able to
detect the half a bottle of Hugo Boss you have just drenched
yourself in, your date will not be able to see you though the vapor
cloud. The same goes for the girls.
7. Give some though to what you are going to talk about and what
things you would like to avoid. It isn't quite an interview
situation and should never feel like one, but some of the same
rules apply. Preparation is everything.
8. Especially for a woman, tell a good friend where you are going
and carry a cell phone and follow all the safe dating rules that
apply. It is your responsibility to feel safe and secure.
9. For men, ensure your shoes are sparkling and that you have
remembered the accessories such as nice belt, watch and wallet. The
details may not be so important to you, but they speak volumes
about you.
10. Try to eradicate any feelings at all that this date has to
work. It doesn't, it is just a night out. If things do work out
then great, but as I said at the beginning, be cool. Your date will
spot any subtle signs of desperation on your part a mile away which
is why before arriving on a date you should do everything to make
yourself relax.
11. As a guy, if you wish to take flowers along, that's nice but
keep the proportions small and make things subtle and
stylish.
12. Do not imagine you are going to have sex this evening even
though it may not be far from your mind. By the same token, do make
sure that your bed sheets are fresh and the place is tidy, just in
case.
13. Whilst bathing spend some time thinking about all the things
you would like to ask your date and what humorous stories you can
tell. Picture the person you think you are about to meet and what
you have to say about yourself, particularly with reference to any
questions they may ask you.
14. Even at this early stage remember that you will not be telling
anyone that you love them this evening.
15. Think about your body signals in advance as well as remembering
how to read theirs so that you can pick up all the standard
interest signals. It makes dating fun when you can read what they
are thinking about you.
