10 Things to Bring on a Date
by Chen Down
Here I comprised a list of tips of things you should always take with you out on a date. No one likes being without something they wish they had. It can ruin a date and possibly something else. It’s always the little things that count, so make sure you got these things on you or with you just to make sure. You will be thankful the second you need them, and then you will remember back to reading this article thinking how silly it all was! Haha! Well seriously, do it. Listen to the tips. You will be glad you did.
The list
So, here they are guys and gals. The list I made up just for you! 1. Always remember your wallet, your purse or handbag. You need your money or credit cards. Just because it’s the males job to pay the check, you don’t want to force them into paying because you brought nothing. That shows poor taste and it’s just mean. Bring your own money just in case.

Safety first!
This one other articles stressed as well. Always bring your mobile phone. It’s a dire need for you ladies out there. It’s an essential security device in case something bad was to happen. You never know what may or may not happen. If you need to call home fast in case of an emergency or call a cab real quick you will wish you had a cellular phone with you to have used. You can also arrange family or friends to call you at certain times to check up on you, if you let it ring then they know something is wrong.
Having a piece of paper with the directions and address of the restaurant or whatever location you are going to be meeting together at, as well as having your date’s cell phone number if they have one. This will allow you to pull your way through those embarrassing moments where you’re lost and got no idea where the heck you need to go and maybe make a copy and leave it at home or in a friends possession so that way they know exactly where you are in case something happens. Safety first!
If the date happens to be some kind of event that requires you to have tickets, make sure you get these tickets in advance and make sure you have them with you. Trying to get into whatever it may be that you need tickets for, without tickets, can end up badly for you, your girl/man, and of course your date will be looking really bad at this point. So do your date a favor, and possible future wife/husband, and buy what you need to buy in advance!
Protection, need I say more? You shouldn’t even be doing it but I know how people are. So please, bring protection…
Very important to dating
Having a sense of humor on you at all times is very important to dating. Sure it’s not something physical you can have on you but it’s still something that you can have with you. If it’s one thing that can really ruin any date in existence, it would be the inability to laugh or enjoy yourself on a date. If you go out on a date in a bad mood, that won’t make your date feel special in anyway, you need to clear your mind and be open and happy on a date. It’s needed for a good date.
For the male, bringing a flower to your pretty date would be a great touch for you. It means more when they know you were thinking about them and that you bought it rather then just pluck it out of your neighbors yard. They would love the flower, even if they aren’t flower likers. And it would be a great touch when they tell their friends or family how the date went.
You should think about carrying a pocket diary or notepad as well as a pen on you. More so if you’re the guy. Not only will this make you look a little more organized and professional, which are good things, but it will also allow you to arrange that second date together, in case she needs to see the address, and you can even use it to write her number in. And do us all a favor and don’t have it full of past dates numbers and junk, that will turn them away no doubt. If you are through with them, rip the pages out.
In the end
If it looks like it’s about to storm. If it looks like it recently stormed. If you see it might storm on the news and if it IS storming or it just got done storming, bring an umbrella! There can’t be much worse, other then the apocalypse maybe, to have gotten all ready for the date, which maybe took hours, only for some phantom rain shower to ruin it on you. Don’t let the weather beat you. And this holds true after the date as well. Don’t let the rain ruin a great date. And it will look awesome if you whip it out when it starts to rain and you two ‘huddle’ under it together.
You need to trust as much as you use common sense on your date. Split it in equal portions. One must always trust a little or you will only fool yourself as you ruin your life, but you must also use common sense when it comes to a date, if something doesn’t feel right, keep note of it. But you must always keep in mind you can’t accuse one unless they are proven guilty, so they are innocent until then. But still, if your gut reaction is telling you to get out of there, it may be best to do so for one reason or another, it may not even be your date. Keep an eye, and common sense open will allow you to spot dangers that may be lurking about, if any at all. It’s all about safety and always will be.
And lastly, my friends, you need to make sure that you didn’t leave your personality at home. It’s who you are! You need it! Sure the first date may be a little daunting, nervous and all that jazz, but it is no excuse to forget who you are and how you act. Too many people feel like a date is too much that they totally just.. forget who they are until the date is over. That’s when one thinks back and goes, “ Doh! I should have said this and that like I wanted to’. See what I mean? You need to stay cool, relaxed, have fun, know hes/she is feeling nervous too, just have fun, have a great time, make sure a conversation keeps going and you should be fine. You don’t want to appear to be some kind of robot person or someone that sucks the fun out of anything they do. Sure shy is cute but being yourself is cutest! So, don’t forget yourself. And always remember safety first. Good luck guys and gals!
