Do you want to be more present on dates? Follow these five tips, and you’ll increase your dating success exponentially!

Being more present on dates will help you enjoy dating much more. It will help with first date anxiety. It will help you focus less on trying to predict whether or not you might have a future with this person, because how could you know that on a first date? In short, being present when you date helps you relax and enjoy every date. Here are five ways to help you do that!

5 Ways to Be More Present on Dates

#1 Prepare before the date

If you want to be more present when you meet your date, it’s important to leave the stress of your day behind. You can do this in a variety of ways; listen to music, change into an outfit that makes you feel good, meditate, take a walk, exercise, or journal. Do whatever you need to get yourself into a positive state of mind so you are recharged and ready to receive the person you’re meeting.

#2 Put your phone away

One of the sexiest things you can do at the start of the date is put your phone away. I suggest you let your date know you’re prioritizing the time you’re going to spend together, so you’re putting your phone away. If they don’t follow suit, feel free to suggest you BOTH make this a phone-free/distraction-free zone.

#3 Leave your past relationships in the past

Many people think it’s vulnerable to share stories about their exes on a first date. I wholeheartedly disagree. The purpose of a first date is to get to know who this person is today, not who they used to be or the people they used to date. So, leave your exes in the past for now, and stay present as you get to know the person you’re with. Find out about their hobbies, what they do for fun, what they love most about their work, what they’re excited about right now. That will help you get to know them so you can decide whether you want to see them again.

#4 Be curious

Curiosity takes you into the present moment. It’s common to judge your date for little things they say or do. If something feels off, get curious. Ask questions. Then ask follow-up questions if you’re still not sure about something or want to learn more. A good date consists of two people who are interested and interesting!

#5 Lean into uncomfortable moments

On first dates, there’s a tendency to try to look and act like the perfect version of yourself. People are more memorable when they lean into a bit of discomfort. That could look like being very direct and honest with your date about how you feel about something that might be controversial. It could also look like being cheeky and playful. Doing or saying something a little courageous or brave. That’s what you and your date will remember, much more than the polite conversation most people have on first dates.

Being more present in dating is all about curiosity and interest in the other person. When we prepare our mindset for the date, put away our phones and focus on getting to know who the other person is right now, there are no ‘bad dates’. You’re simply meeting someone new and seeing if you connect.
