| An awkward moment during the first few minutes of a date is one thing that most of us want to avoid. Although we can eventually overcome it, it would still be best if we can deal with it. Here is a super simple dating advice for men on how to deal with those awkward situation. It can also be used any time throughout the meeting.
We call it: 'Ipod for 2'
Now this technique works in almost any environment and most situations.
So here's a scenario: You've just met a girl by the subway station near your house. (you got her to come to meet you right?:) It is your first 'date' and you are wearing an Ipod. You exchange your greetings, and begin some playful banter.
Step 1: As you walk through the street towards your destination, you say "Hey you have to hear this amazing song."
And hand her just one of the earbuds. (If you're feeling bold, go ahead and stick it in her ear for her;) The key is that the other earbud stays in your ear, preferably the one closer to her...
Step 2: Play whatever song you want. The trick is to share something with her that you genuinely enjoy listening to and are hopefully even passionate about. Just don't play U2's, "With or Without You" because that would just be lame.
In fact, to be on the safe side, stay away from anything too lovey dovey sounding.
Step 3: As you head towards your destination, just be with her as the music plays on. (Doesn't matter if you're stationary or sitting down btw)
The benefit of this technique is twofold;
1. You share something with her that is very important for you. This sets the stage for her to share something personal back.
2. It isn't possible to share Ipod headphones and NOT be constantly touching the person you're sharing them with... The more music you play her, the more comfortable she is getting with your touch. And it is totally incidental! (How else could you both listen?)In other words, you have a legitimate and excusable reason to be that physically close to her. 'Ipod for 2' is one of the most simple yet effective dating tips for men that you can even use it anytime throughout the interaction, so don't feel obligated to try it at the very beginning.
In fact, if the date is going well it has much more potential impact when used after some initial bonding has occurred. |
