How to Ask For a Second Date
After you have an enjoyable first date where you’re interested in seeing the person again, how exactly are you supposed to ask for a second date?
The best way to go about it is to bring it up during the first date, then call a few days later to ask for a second date. When you bring it up during the first date, you can get an impression on whether or not the person would go out with you again. Say something such as “I had a great time. We should do this again.” A classic line, yes, but it works to gauge the other person’s interest. If your date has a non-fake smile, shows genuine interest and says “Yes we should.” then go ahead and call. If your date seems hesitant, then you can take your chances of calling, but don’t expect much. If you get an oh-so-fake smile and a “Yeaa, ok…” or gives you a flat out “no” well then you obviously know where you stand.
If you don’t mention something on the first date and the other person is interested in you, then you leave them wondering and pondering whether or not you’re actually going to call, if you had a great time, if you’re interested, etc. You may think it’s a smart move, but it’s not.
