Date Prep 101
Chapter 2
Additional gear you might want to consider can also be useful.
A handy little item I saw recently is becoming available quite widely
now for a reasonable price, and is bound to impress her. Its called
a watch, and it tells you what time it is. You might be surprised
how much importance most women place on punctuality; yours at least,
though not necessarily theirs. Showing up on when you said you would
is one way that you can signal to her that you value the time she
has chosen to spend with you.
There are surely some other really interesting technological gadgets
out there today that may really impress you, but I would suggest
leaving your Palm Pilot (is it just me or does Palm Pilot sound
like secret code for 'wanker') and any other such devices at home
tonight. If you have to bring your cell phone, then at least have
the forethought to turn it off before you enter the restaurant or
wherever. There is nothing more annoying than the feeling we all
get watching people we are with, talk to someone else who is obviously
more important than we are. If I take the trouble to go to a face-to-face
meeting, I sure don't want some clown on a cell phone jumping the
queue on me, and neither will she. Finally, you might be amazed
to learn that a staggeringly high percentage of incoming cell calls
received during a first date, actually originate from past lovers
and ex-wives. So here you are, all shined up and fully prepared.
You look good, you smell good, and you feel good.
Finally, bring condoms! Don't have them hanging out of your shirt
pocket in a long string obviously, but if you are not prepared,
how do you expect to get lucky? If instead, in the heat of the moment
she has to object to your progression towards intercourse to insist
on or query about contraception, she is already in a negative frame
of mind and more likely to refuse your advances. A good salesman
(and trust me, that is what you are trying to be here) will anticipate
objections and present overcoming arguments (the condom) before
they are raised. This also lets them know you are truly concerned
about them, you, your respective health and well-being, another
tick in the plus column when she ultimately makes her decision of
whether to sleep with you or not.
All right then tiger go get 'em. Ah! Are we forgetting something?
How about your wallet? Have fun now, and have her back by eleven.
(Just kidding)
