Hoping to make a great impression on your
first date? You may be concentrating on getting the wrong parts of your body
ready. Most people care very little about which outfit you choose or the acne
that you are so worried about. Instead, people typically notice these five
things when meeting someone for the first time.
Your Eyes

The eyes are a very common first place
people look when they meet someone new. Your date may look at your eyes to tell
at a quick glance whether you are genuinely warm and friendly or just putting
on a fake smile. They may also look you in your eyes to show you how interested
they are in you or to make a deeper connection with you.
Your Smile
Your Smile
Like your eyes, your smile will also tell
if you are having a great time or if you cannot wait to leave. Your teeth
should be white, straight and clean. If they are not, many dental offices allow
you to get a new smile
in one day so there is still time. Chances are, you will be smiling a lot,
and you will want your teeth to be ready.
Your Hair
Your Hair
While your date will not be as particular
about your hair as you are, he will still likely notice what your hair looks
like in general. Whether you threw it up in a dirty pony-tail or you took the
time to create numerous tiny, perfectly formed ringlets says a lot about it.
Your General Appearance
Your General Appearance
Your date will also notice your general
appearance as your choice of clothes gives several indications to your
personality. They will notice whether you dress to accentuate your best
features or whether you threw on a sloppy old outfit. While they may notice
your weight, a few extra pounds are easily forgivable if you dress them well.Your Personality
Lastly, as you spend time with your date,
he will notice your personality. It will not be the first thing he notices, but
it will be the thing you are most remembered for. Do not be afraid to let your
unique and sparkly personality shine.
If these five features are not your best
aspects, there is no need to worry. Fix what you can, and accentuate your
strengths. If you can be proud of four out of five of these features, you have
a good chance of getting a second date as well.
