The Perfect Conversation On A First Date
|
The Perfect Conversation On A First Date I'm naturally chirpy and catch the other person's mood so if you come along determined to have a great time you will find I'm ready with the repartee and we shall indeed have a wonderful evening. Do you have any cultural interests? Mine include travel, opera, country music, psychology, life coaching, writing novels, songwriting, writing poetry, teaching English, spelling and grammar, anything to do with writers such as the Brontes (I used to write travel articles about homes of the famous) and any other subject your raise including sport providing you explain the rules and personalities involved. You can tell from my profile and my blogs that although I might be pretty frank and discuss sex if I know somebody well or am writing anonymously, I have many other subjects to talk about. A stranger, a strange man, who talked about nothing except sex in a first email, or first meeting, would give me the impression that he had no other interests in his life and no interest in me as a person. All too much, too soon. What really excites me is a kindred spirit. There is nothing more exciting than somebody who is interested in what you have to say on every subject and is continually bringing up new ideas and agreeing with you - or teasing you. If I meet you, I already know myself. Of course I want to hear about you. Regarding the 'hidden agenda', I appreciate subtle turns of phrase. I expect a first date to be platonic. You may kiss my hand or my cheek, play footsie, look in my eyes and make innuendos which the waiter won't understand but I shall. If you find me irresitible you can ask me for a second date. A first meeting is rather nerve-racking. A second meeting takes you into a new phase. Frankly, a<b> blind date </font></b>with somebody met on the Internet is rather like a business meeting. You just have to be polite to whoever turns up. Everybody has an interesting story to tell if you are willing to listen. If they become a friend, that's a bonus. And if you secure a girlfriend / boyfriend from the first two or three you meet you are extremely lucky and the stars are shining on you. Or you are exceptionally good-natured, adaptable and easy-going and have found the pleasure which you deserve. 'Elizabeth'[   |

Very good advice, agrees one who had three blind dates last year with ladies he met on the web. Three blind dates? I wonder what are the most and least people have had and whether that is through choice. In two and a half years I reckon I've had about thirty-five meetings, two of which were drinks, the rest lunches or dinners. I'm now on 24 web sites, having been copied onto several but only check into five. Some won't let me in because I've lost the password and when I try to set up a new account they tell me that somebody else with my email is already registered. I'm on gmail and every time a log onto one site or get set an alert from it, more ads for other sites pop up. I'm a paid-up member of four sites which I check daily. I blog regularly on three. I'm addicted to this site. I could spend hours here. I read the emails, blogs, magazine articles and blings. 'Elizabeth'[

Everybody in education, me, you, Ineedit, has something in common with the others, a way of listening to others and seeing people in the round. 'Elizabeth'[

As Shakespeare didn't say, all the world's a classroom. And we are all students. 'Elizabeth'[
