Between Dates

The scenario is this: you’ve just had a really good first date. The banter was lively and easy, the two of you have chemistry, and now you remember that dates are supposed to be fun. You didn’t embarrass yourself, your date didn’t disappoint, and you’d like another go. What to do? You don’t want to rush things and blow it, so distracting yourself is recommended. The Frisky Biscuit has compiled a list of safe activities to sustain your excitement without being all up in their grill. These activities, if carefully rationed, may just take the edge off so you don’t seem like a desperado.

Step 1
Check their astrological sign and horoscope for evidence that you have romantic possibilities. If the outcome is favorable, feel smugly satisfied and proceed to Step 2. If the prediction isn’t what you were hoping for, discredit astrology as rubbish.
Step 2
Look person’s name up in book of name meanings. Focus intently on those qualities that are most attractive. Sigh dreamily.
Step 3
Now is the time to ensure you don’t have a criminal on your hands. Google your date’s name. Perhaps you’ll even collect a fantasy-worthy tidbit, such as college rugby champion or volunteer work with orphans in Africa.
Step 4
Replay voice mail they left you. Verify that they have a decidedly sexy voice.
Step 5
Go to the gym to achieve that healthy glow and work off any nervous energy. Also, you might want to tone up just in case.
Step 6
Develop wardrobe strategy, allowing for various contingencies such as weather and date location, to prepare for possible spontaneous second date.
Step 7
Enjoy this time - having something to look forward to is one of life’s sweetest pleasures.

Repeat as needed until you have achieved ultimate domestic bliss with your ideal sweetie. Good luck, my little friskies!
