Whatever the story, it's a set of memories that don't fade because the first meet-up is such an important moment so when it goes wrong, even in a small way, it's doesn't usually lead to a second date.
So get your ducks in a row and prepare properly for your date!
First item on the menu: you.
Yes, you.
If your physical and mental states aren't up to speed for that date, it'll likely ruin everything else so make sure to clear out your problems (nobody wants to hear about those, unless they ask, specifically), get some significant sleep (it'll show in your face that you're "ready") and have enough time to suit up and get to the meeting location, on time.
So you've covered the "you" part.
Good work!
Now the "you" needs to be looking its best so pick up the right attire for the meet-up. Don't overdress but dress enough to show you're serious about the whole thing.
And BEFORE you put on your nice clothes, go take a shower and don't overdo it with perfumes or perfumed soaps. You want to be noticed but not fled.
Take special care of your mouth. It needs to be very clean, especially if you intend on landing a kiss. A clean mouth is a baseline for any date, even after the first one. That point is basically non-negotiable. So get flossing and brushing before you meet.
Once you're clean and dressed for success, you'll feel good and you'll know it's time to head out to your date — as mentioned above, be there on time and a bit before, if you can.
Be on the lookout for your date and act with utter respect, unless you're not being respected in which case, you're always free to leave. A simple "it's not working out" should suffice.
So there you go, no need to go over the no smoking, no drinking and no drugs rules because they're so obvious so if you follow these easy steps and your own feelings, things should go just fine.
Have yourself a wonderful date!
