Tips to make your first hookup date comfortable

Hookup dates are cool and casual, but its still important to make sure they’re done right. Although there’s no hard and fast rule for the same, here are a few tips to do it right so your date feels comfortable and willing to take things forward.

·         Keep things light and humorous

Although it’s a hookup date, you still need to work on the ice breaker and conversation. Good conversational skills will get them interested and help to loosen things up a bit. Keep things light. Crack jokes, talk about general stuff, nothing too serious, but nothing too silly as well. Avoid political or social issues as they may spoil the mood. Make your date laugh. That’s the best way to ensure they’re comfortable. 

·         Avoid making too many sexual jokes or dropping obvious hints

Yes, we know, you know and even they know that you’re probably going to ‘do it’, but you don’t need to make it so obvious. Avoid making that the theme of your entire date. Cracking too many sexual jokes, commenting on body parts or dropping obvious hints that you’re looking forward to the hookup part of the date, can actually be a turn off. Keep it casual and make sure you talk about things other than just getting physically intimate.

·         Make sure your touch is friendly and comforting

It is important to make sure that your touch doesn’t make them feel uncomfortable. Instead of directly going in for a tight hug or your hand on their back, start off with a handshake first. Then based on their response, you can move towards hand holding, light embrace, hand on their knee, etc. Depending on where you both are, keep the physical contact decent and not too desperate.

·         Notice their body language and act accordingly

The best way to know if they’re comfortable is to observe their body language. Are they leaning towards you while you talk, are they trying to touch your hand from across the table, is their leg brushing up against yours, are they listening intently and holding your gaze? If the answer to all these questions is yes, then you must be doing the right thing and you can continue with it, since these are signs of a person being not just comfortable but genuinely interested in the date.

·         Take them to a place with good music

Music helps to break the ice in more ways than you know. For your date, you can take them to a place with good music; not too loud, not too soft, but a place that can help both of you groove and vibe to the tunes and ease the sexual or any other tension between you too. It’s a great start to a great night too. And you’re in luck if they like to dance.

·         Good food is always the key

Good food is the solution to most issues related to being comfortable. Make sure to choose a place with good food and ambience. If they turn out to be a foodie, it is likely to be more than just a hook up site date and maybe you’ll find your new food buddy in them too.
