Tip #4- ASK QUESTIONS. Start with the light hearted questions like favourite food, music, people etc and then if you still like what you hear and see after the first date venture into the deeper questions later.

When you go out on a date, it is important that you use that date as an opportunity to observe and see if the person is someone you would like to see again and if they carry the qualities you are looking for in a life partner. You can do this through asking questions and talking about your life.

It is important that relationships are open and honest in the early stages so that both parties can see the other person for who they really are. Dating is a risky business as there is always the potential that you could be hurt when you allow yourself to be vulnerable and open up to another person. I believe however, that the benefit of being open, honest and vulnerable far outweighs the risks in the long term.

This report contains some tips to get you started on your dating journey and some questions that you can ask along the way.

Tip #1- RELAX and lighten up! Finding your life partner or soulmate and settling down into marriage is serious business but you’re not there yet. Take a deep breath and enjoy the discover process- once it’s over you can’t go back!

Tip #2- HAVE FUN. For those of you who are outgoing and social this won’t be a problem. For those of you who are more like me, a bit reserved, sceptical, and have the tendency to take things a bit too seriously remember to have fun. If you do, the other person will too! There is plenty of time for serious on the next date.

Tip #3- DATE IN GROUPS! This takes all the pressure off a ‘first date’ when you hardly know them. Organise a group of friends to go out and invite your date along with the group. Dating in groups is safe and fun. It provides you with opportunity to get to know the other person better in a group setting where there is not so much pressure. It’s less like a ‘date’ and more like a group of friends hanging out!
