Talk to each other–not on your phones! | Source: Shutterstock
Girl, put your phone away! Dude, we totally get it–it’s sort of like a defense mechanism when situations get awkward or quiet. But the point of a first date is to get to know someone new, and you can’t do that if you’re texting your BFF every two minutes with a play-by-play of your night.
What to do if he’s glued to his celly? Shoot him a text of your own: “Hey, I’m right here!” It’s lighthearted but will get your point across. To make sure he knows you’re not getting pissed or territorial, you may want to toss in a winky face–digital or real, up to you!

This or That
After the first date, how would you let the guy know you’re not interested without being harsh?
I would actually always recommend sitting across from each, sitting next to each other is not average and really awkward for the other person however if there is a big group then you can sit next to your date like in a booth.
agree! so you do not have to turn your head to look at him. lol
Actually, there’s a scientific study that shows that guys tend to feel more close to a girl when talking side by side, while girls tend to feel more close by talking face to face. So, if you really like the guy and want to be with him you better sit side by side.
