Mondays with Martha

Recently,  I came across this article. Sometimes we forget ourselves especially in social situations. I think the following makes for a good review. Let me know what you think. If you've got a story to tell, share it here.
Do's:
· Look your best by dressing up well and always be on time for your meetings.
· Compliment your date for his/her looks and be sincere.
· If you are meeting for the first time or after online dating then meet in public and not in secluded pubs and bars.
· Be lighthearted and sober in your approach.
· Switch off your cell phone or turn it to silent mode before your conversation begins. Distractions signal a lack of interest or respect.
· Always warm and positive. Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry all by yourself.
· Make eye contact with your date to show interest and respect.
· Ask questions (this shows that you are interested)
Don'ts:
· Do not drink too much during your date. In fact, keep drinking to a minimum, as most people drink more when they are nervous.
· Do not date a person who is otherwise involved seriously with someone else (couple, marriage, etc.)
· Do not go for sex on a first date. As exciting as it may be to hit a home run in the first inning, having or trying to get frisky on the first date almost always comes off in bad form.
· Do not lie to your date on any aspect of your life. Be your best self but be your true self.
· Do not reveal your inner most secrets or speak too much about yourself on the first meeting itself. Being honest and upfront are necessary but no where to draw the line.
· Do not splash on too much perfume. No matter how attractive the smell is, too much is always a turn off.
· Do not be over critical about anyone or anything. Again, remain positive in your outlook.
· Don't joke on dirty, political or religious issues. These topics should be avoided for meetings where you are getting to know each other. They are highly controversial for most people.

Mondays with Martha

Don't forget the romance! Meeting new people, dating, having getting to know you conversations can be adventurous and fun. Dates can range from a picnic in the park, roller skating, candlelight dinners to a night on the town. Surprise each other, with a thoughtful gift, cooking their favorite meal, funny or romantic notes left in just the right places. A kind gesture, a peck on the cheek or just holding hands may do the trick. Isn't it the little things that make the difference? It doesn't matter whether you're twenty or sixty, showing that you care is never out of style.
The fun starts this Fall.
