It is natural to experience a bad date at some point of time. This applies to both the boy and the girl. One bad date is not a reason to write the person off for life. To deal with such situations, you may do certain things like:
* How to deal with a bad date
1) If you are feeling too nervous, then you can always opt for a date over coffee. This is nice way to get rid of nervousness as it will give you less time and you can bid your date a quick "ta-ta" after having the coffee.
2) There is no excuse for a date who is stubborn and rude. The best way to deal with such persons is to walk away.
3) If you and your date are not on the same wavelength, then tolerate your date, maintain your composure and leave politely. If your date asks for an extension, you can always politely say ‘no’.
4) If you accidentally insult and hurt your date, simply apologize and move on. If your insult is not that harsh, your date might just forgive and forget the whole episode.
5) Never provide any form of entertainment at your own expense. Humor is cool, but never put yourself down. It is not worth it to make yourself feel uncomfortable while trying to impress your date.
* How to move on?
1) Don't blame and punish yourself for a date that went wrong. Instead, commend yourself for getting through it. Learn from it and then put it out of your mind.
2) Sharing the details with a friend helps a lot. In this way, you can treat it as more of a joke than something that will haunt you for the rest of your life.
3) If you have to forgive yourself and forget about the bad date, then get occupied with other activities. You can do this by exercising, eating something good or watching your favorite movie.
4) Honesty and kindness are a good combination when it comes to turning down a bad date.
5) If you are of the opinion that the other person deserves a second chance, give him or her second try. It is easier to forget a bad date when you are more comfortable with each other.
