Thoughts on a first date

No matter how often you have gone out with someone new, the prospects of a first date can get the palms sweating and almost always make the mind race.

First dates take a level of emotional investment. Inevitably they come with some degree of anxiety, so everyone should take the time to seriously assess whether going out on a first date makes sense.

If you are hoping for a serious relationship at this time in your life, you will use a different set of filters to determine if a first date makes sense than if you are at a time in your life when you want casual relationships.

If dating this person could cause a whole string of repercussions at work, or if going out with the person would put your friends or family through major turmoil, you should carefully think through the decision of whether a first date makes sense or not.
