Assuming that you have both had fun, you can end the first date on a high note and set the foundation for the next date. Here are some tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you\u2019re dropping her off at home, walk her to her door. Tell her that you\u2019ve had a great time and that you really enjoyed her company. If you think she had an equally good time, tell her that you would like to call her in a few days and get together again soon (if she says \u201cokay,\u201d make sure you call when you say you will).<\/li>\n<li>If you met somewhere for your date and are leaving separately, walk her to her car and do the same thing. Hold her car door open for her and tell her what a great time you had.<\/li>\n<li>If she\u2019s giving you the right signals, you can try for a kiss, but if you\u2019re unsure, don\u2019t risk it. She will still like you if you don\u2019t kiss her \u2013 in fact she might like you better, thinking that you\u2019re a perfect gentleman. By not kissing her, you\u2019re also leaving her with a bit of a mystery.<\/li>\n<li>Above all, make sure you end the date on a high note with you escorting her to her door or car and letting her know how much you enjoyed the date. Ask if you can call in a day or two and then make sure you follow through.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><br \/>\nWhat if the date didn\u2019t go so well? What if you think she\u2019s okay, but you don\u2019t intend to ask her out again? Don\u2019t make the blunder of saying \u201cI\u2019ll call you.\u201d That\u2019s the absolute wrong thing to do. Try these tips for ending a not-so-great first date:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Remember to be a gentleman. You can still walk her to her door or to her car and make sure she gets in safely.<\/li>\n<li>Tell her that you enjoyed meeting her and try to think of something you talked about that you can mention, like \u201cI hope your job interview goes well on Monday. Good luck!\u201d Leave things on a positive note.<\/li>\n<li>If she seems like she wants a kiss, offer a hug at the most.<\/li>\n<li>If she says, \u201cCall me,\u201d or, \u201cLet\u2019s get together again soon,\u201d let her down gently by saying something like, \u201cI\u2019ve had a really nice time, but I don\u2019t think we\u2019re a romantic match.\u201d She might look disappointed and she might even seem a bit angry, but it\u2019s better than lying.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><br \/>\nIt\u2019s easy to end a first date with someone you want to see again, and it\u2019s not really too bad learning how to end a first date with someone you haven\u2019t any interest in seeing again. Either way, be a nice guy. She will appreciate it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve had your first date, and it\u2019s coming to an end.
