Whether It's Going Anywhere

Now that you got over the hurdle of the first date, it's time to think about whether you are going to go another round and ask for the second date. Again, don't think about it as a formal date. Think about making more time to spend together.

To decide about the next meeting, ask yourself the following questions:

"Did we enjoy each other's company?"

"Did the energy seem to flow? By just focusing on your gut, did things seem to go naturally between you, without much effort or "work"?"

Consider your time and attention a precious gift. I know this sounds dramatic, but what if you considered that this was the last date you were going to have in a long time (I don't even mean that you would die tomorrow, but that you would be so tied up with work or school that you'd have no time for fun). If so, would you really want to spend that time with this person?
