Dating Advice for Teen Girls

Jaleh
Dating for a teen girl is a new territory of life. So it's normal not to know how to approach a boy or how to act on a date. This is why dating advice for teen girls is in order. To help give you some solid advice and prepare you for a life of teen dating I have interviewed Emily Moreno who has dipped her toes in the teen dating scene.

Where are some safe places to meet a boy?
"Some safe places to meet boys are at school, church or through friends and family. I would suggest staying about from meeting boys on the Internet. You won't be able to tell if you who are chatting with is really being honest about who they are."

What would you suggest for a teen girl to say to get a boy to go out on a date?
"Keep it simple. Say something like, " I have two tickets to this movie. If you come with me, I'll share my popcorn with you!"

What questions should a girl ask before agreeing to go out on a date with a boy?
"See if the boy has the same standards as you. Make it clear to him what your standards are and make sure he's willing to respect them. If he isn't, then say no!"

How should a teen girl dress for her date?
"Modestly, You don't want to show off too much skin. Also, wear something that you feel comfortable in. You don't want to be fidgeting the whole time because your shirt is to tight or short."

What are some fun things to do on a date?
"There are many fun things you can do on a date. You can go to the movies, chill at the mall, attend a local festival, go swimming if the weather is warm or hang out at a video arcade location. One of my favorite things to do is visit the park and feed the ducks. If you did this you could bring a camera and take pictures of each other out in nature!"

How long should a date last?
"The first date should be only a couple hours. That way, if it's awkward, you don't have to drag it out longer than necessary. Even if it's going well, end it, because it will give you an excuse to get together with that person again."

What can a teen girl do if she feels uncomfortable or unsafe on a date?
"Always have an escape plan and have your cell phone with you. If you ever feel like you want to leave, just say you need to use the restroom, then call your mom or friend and have them come and pick you up early."

What last advice would you like to leave for teen girls?
"Don't pretend to be someone else. If you do the pretense will naturally fade and the real you will emerge. If a boy really likes you he will like you for who you are. If he doesn't no worries there are plenty of other boys."
