1.Be Present

1.享受现在

Don’t play out your future relationship with the person in your head. This is a first date. You are not in a relationship so don’t act like you are in one. This isn’t a good time to mention that you want to have their babies in the next year. On the other hand, don’t go into a date thinking that it is doomed. Try to enjoy the company of another person and analyze later. Worst case scenario, it’s a chance to tell all the funny stories your friends are sick of hearing.

切勿在脑海中计划你与她的未来关系。这只是初次约会，还没有确定恋爱关系，因此，不要表现的像在谈恋爱一样。这样的场合不适合提到明年你想要和她生孩子诸如此类的话。此外，不要进入约会思维模式，认为你们是命中注定的。尽量享受另外一个人的陪伴，事后再做分析。如果你认为可以趁这个机会把所有朋友们讨厌听到的幽默故事讲给她听，那就太糟糕了。

2.Don't Be Glued to Your Cell Phone

2.切勿紧盯手机

I realize that pretending to check your cell phone is a great way to avoid awkward silences, but resist the urge. Stay engaged. Make eye contact with your date instead of with your phone, and ask them how many siblings they have or if they’ve seen Gravity yet.

我知道假装查看手机是避免冷场的妙招，然而约会时务必要抵制这一冲动。与她保持互动，进行眼神交流。问她家里有几个兄弟姐妹，或有没有看过万有引力这部电影。
