Friends Dating Places

Waiting around for the other person to make the move is so 2010. Alright, maybe not, but it will result in a whole lot of waiting. If you have someone in your life that you want to get it on with, then do it! It’s better than having to result to a XXX dating site later down the line.

Making the first move may require some guts, but it’s worth it if it’s going to result in a good time!

CHANGE LOCATION

The bedroom is so cliche. Next time you’re in the car, or on a bench, or in the kitchen, or basically anywhere that’s not the bedroom, stroke the fire! Dating lives can go from great to stale before you know it, so keep them alive with a little location switch up.

TAKE CONTROL

Nothing is sexier than having someone show you the way. Instead of waiting for someone else to take control, do it yourself! Put their hands where you want them and tell them all the things you want to do together. Sure it may take more confidence then you’re probably used to, but it’ll be worth it when you get the results you want!

PLAY DRESS UP!

Who wants to strip down your pajamas when they can have you fully decked out in a new something-something from Victoria’s Secret? Lingerie is always the sexiest option!

SHARE A FANTASY

Have you ever had someone ask what your fantasy is, only to feel awkward and put on the spot? We all have. Instead of asking what their fantasy is, share yours! It’ll not only probably get it fulfilled, but it will open the door for them to share theirs without having to flat out ask them.

When friends dating take that first big jump, there’s a lot you have to think about– How is this going to effect the friendship? Will we be able to stay friends if it doesn’t work out? Are things going to be awkward between us if we take it any further?– But, unfortunately, you won’t actually know until you give it a shot. So if you put your friendship on the line and the first kiss is much more sour than it is sweet, should you just call it a day on your romance and just stay friends?

In a survey done by US Weekly’s website, only 15% of people say that their first kiss with their current partner was a good one!

The fact is nerves get to people. When it’s a regular first kiss, you’re worried that your teeth will clink, worried your paces won’t match up… Worried over just about everything. When it’s a first kiss between friends, you have much more to think about. What’s going to happen after the kiss? Is the friendship changed forever? With so much on your mind to distract you, you’re setting yourself up to have a bad kiss.

If the first kiss goes bad, don’t give up there. If you’re considering dating them, there has to be reason for it other than their lips. Keep those reasons in mind to get you through the first few awkward initial physical interactions.

If you want to be more relaxed in an attempt to make that first kiss memorable, prepare yourself in advanced! Get all of the ‘what if’ questions out of the way before you decide to do it, moisturize your lips so they’re soft and you aren’t self conscious about them, and pop in a mint before the big event! If it goes good, that’s great! If it doesn’t, you’ll always have another chance to make it better.

One of the hardest things when you’re interested in friends dating is telling the difference between a hang out and a date. Nothing is more embarrassing than telling your friends about your romantic date, when he’s telling your friends that the two of you were just hanging out.

Without having to flat out ask him, how can you tell the difference? There’s always signs people will send out if they want your time together to be a little something more than just friends hanging out.

How did he ask you to hang out?

If a guy is interested in you, he’ll want to break the pattern the two of you usually had as friends. Does he usually text you to make plans, and this time he picked up the phone to make a call? Any sign of unnecessary effort may mean that he’s trying to cross the dating line.

Did he suggest that others come?

A lot of the time when friends are going out, they’ll suggest for others to come along. If he specifically keeps it to just the two of you, chances are he wants you to spend your time together alone for a reason.

Are his mannerisms different?

You know those little quirks everyone has? If you notice his have suddenly changed, it’s probably out of nervousness. A lot of guys don’t realize it, but the way they move and the things they say are slightly altered when they’re nervous. Since you’re already friends, the nerves aren’t just from hanging out with you, but from the timidness of having to make a move.

Is his body language more intimate?

If a guy is into you, he’ll usually lean in while talking or listening, and have as much physical contact as possible. This can be anything from touching your hand more often to guiding you by placing his hand on the small of your back as you walk through a door.

If anything changes out of your regular routine, but some thought into why it has changed. If he’s acting how you feel with your new urges to go from friends to dating, he’s probably thinking the same thing you are! And you, my friend, are on a date.
