How To Make Your Second Date A Success

Will Lightning Strike Twice?

Much is written about how to get a first date and then how to make it a success, but the second date is often overlooked. However, it is just as important to the success of any potential relationship. Here we look at how to make sure the second date goes well. <br/><br/> Is It The Right Thing? <br/><br/> You need to be certain that going on a second date is the correct thing to do. The apprehension that is often felt in the lead up to a first date can often cloud our perception of it's success. Having feared the worst as the rendezvous approached we can come away feeling it went well, just because it didn't go badly. Therefore in the following days it is important to think back to how well it actually went; did the conversation flow? Were both of you interested in what each other had to say? Did you fancy them? And, did you actually have fun? If the answer is yes, then going for the second date is the right thing to do. Although, if you thought it went ok and are hopeful that the next time might be better then it may be a short lived encounter and you may be better trying to make connections with other people. <br/><br/> How to Suggest It? <br/><br/> This may require you to be a bit reactive but on the back of some ground work. Depending on how it's gone since the first date, suggesting a second date can be quite straight forward. If you've been in regular contact since the first date, either by text, phone calls or even on the UK dating website you met on, this might be quite easy. You could let the other person know that you enjoyed your first meeting and ask if they fancied doing it again, although a better thing to do might be to remember something they said in the first date and build on that. If your date said that they had a certain hobby or interest then you could maybe suggest something along those lines. For example if they spoke of their love for French cinema, you could hunt down a showing of a French film and ask if they want to go and watch it with you. <br/><br/> Where to Go? <br/><br/> Again this will depend on what happened in the first date. If you discovered each other on one of the many dating websites UK and decided to meet for something quite casual to test the waters, then it could be a good idea to up your game and go for something a little more serious, like a meal. However, if your first date was in a restaurant, you could go for an alternative venue and activity. Whatever you do, it is important to show that you are more than one dimensional, unless you have very good reason, don't suggest going back to the same place and it would be even better go for a different activity from the first date. <br/><br/>
