Hello Readers, Linda here. Today I want to talk about what NOT to do on a first phone call or first date. The most important thing is when asked about your past relationship or marriage is not to tell them anything more than " we wanted different things". I find this to be the most effective. If the date wants further detail you can mention a few minor things like mine would be " he didn't want to ever go out" and I wanted more of a social life. There is no need to give them all your dirty laundry on the first few dates. What if you did and then you never see them again? It's really none of their business remember this is a total stranger and you just don't give your life story to a total stranger. Then on the other hand, if they start to tell you theirs, you can politely look at your watch and change the subject. The first date or first few dates are about having fun and getting to know each other that doesn't mean you reveal your life story.
Keep it simple and fun. The reason you date someone is to see if they are a good person or not. Trust me, after a few dates you will know it. They will show their true colors soon enough so better to maintain your privacy until trust is earned.
Xoxo, Linda
