So....You've made a Social Network connection! Is it now time for a First Face to Face?

The World we live in, today, is interconnected now that Social Media has become the new way to make friends. You can get introduce by a friend who has a friend who has a friend that is 1,300 miles away, and you hit it off!
So you’ve been spending a little time on a social Networking site. There’s been a wink and a couple of messages, and you’re ready for your first eye to eye meeting...... 
NOT so fast!  In anticipation of this big moment, there are some things you can do to prepare. Time is on your side, use it wisely. While meeting a new person for the first time is nerve-wracking, taking these steps can make the experience easier and worthwhile. 

Consider doing Skype. Skype (www.skype.com) is a software application that allows users to make voice calls over the Internet. Calls to other users within the Skype service are free, while calls to both traditional landline telephones and mobile phones can be made for a small fee, using a debit-based user account system. Many Mac computers have a built in feature called Photo Booth that allows users to Skype right from their desk. The advantages to Skyping are numerous. You can see what the person looks like and how they sound, and because you can see some background, you can also get a sense of how they live (or work).  
By far the sweetest way to get a man interested is flirting with him. When he calls you and asks you what you are doing, tell him a little white lie. In a sexy voice, tell him you're doing the dishes in a "French maid outfit." Or Tell him you decided to wear that little black negligee he would love to see you in just for this conversation. Of course, he won't believe you, but he'll be left imagining the picture you painted for him with your words. Got a camera phone? NO, NO, NO sexting! Take a photo of you in your favorite pose and send it to him during his 10 o'clock meeting the next morning (just make sure he is not in  the meeting to discuss his promotion). DO NOT, I repeat Do NOT take pictures with you wearing your Niece's Wedding dress, and ask him "how do I look?" This may cause a panic and you  may never hear from him again. 

Talk on the phone. While some people prefer to skip this step because they’re afraid they may rule a person out just because they don’t like their voice, experienced  daters insist this step is essential. Why? Because talking is something you’ll be doing on your date, and if you can’t talk to the person on the phone, chances are you’ll have even less to say to them face to face.

Here is Your opportunity to have a sensual encounter over the phone! Surprise the person on the other end with a bit of sexy flirting and leave thoughts of you fresh in his mind, or go a little further and really excite him.  I won't be telling you how to have phone sex like they do in the movies..... Instead, I'm inspiring you to use your own personality and sexuality to get the man interested in you over the phone. Adding a bit of sensuality to your phone conversations allows the man freedom of imagination.
Now we are talking for a few days, so lets meet! Maybe it's time for a little Background check just to be safe.
Ladies you Choose a good meeting place.  You want a meeting place that’s public but is also semi-private, quiet area where you can comfortably chat. The best spots are a coffee shop or a restaurant, some place busy enough you’re not alone with a stranger, but at a booth or a table that’s not smack in the midst of a crowd. The first time you meet is how you start to know each other. Don’t pick a place too lively and boisterous or you’ll have to shout!     I'm a baritone, so I like sounding as close to Barry White as possible which is impossible if I'm shouting.  

Pick a meeting time that’s good for about an hour. No matter how swimmingly things are going, first meets shouldn’t last for no more than an hour. Meet for cappuccino or a soft drink after work. No alcohol... If there’s no chemistry or you hate the way he looks, you can leave after 20 minutes. That’s fair enough. Or you can have him thinking you have to get home to your young triplet kids .... Which will turn him off and you will not have to tell him you are not interested.

Choose a meet-up spot that’s not too far away from where You live. Most people cite geographic distances they’re willing to travel in search of a future mate. Do you really want to drive more than an hour to meet someone you’ve only talked to on the phone or Skyped with? Select a location relatively equidistant from where you work or live. Time is precious. So’s gasoline. But if you have a real connection then he will be willing to fly 1,300 miles to meet you in person. 

Always meet the person somewhere you are familiar with. Don’t let him pick you up or suggest an exotic Island you've never been to. For reasons that should be obvious, never let someone you don’t know see where you work or live. If things go well, this is information you’ll reveal at some point, always arrive and leave on your own. 

You can always plan that exotic Vacation after you have a better picture of where this new relationship is going.    Try reading some other related Post:

Always Make a Great First, Second and Third Impression.
