Leavitt said guys shouldnt talk about then selves the whole time try to make themselves sound cool. You want give the girl a chance t to know you, but answering her questions is better than being full of yourselt OK, so lets say the dat has been going on for some time now. How you know if its going or not? Well, there doesn seem to be any specific sign to look for. anc common for the first date. Eventually, everybody goes on a first date. Usually its up to the man to ask the girl. A lot of guys resort to their usual dinner and a movie first date, some just say hanging out is a first date. So the guy sees the girl. He likes what he sees. He gets the guts to ask her out. Then what? Douglas Deynon, a freshman general education major from Huntington Beach, Calif., said the asking out is the emphasis here. The hardest part is ask- ing, he said. After that you just hope she likes what youre doing. After she says yes, the guy needs to plan the first date. At this point, he needs to decide the tone of the date. Will it be an adventurous activity with a group or a Bachelor-styl- e date at a romantic location to ask deep questions? Most boys, like Ryan Burrows, a sophomore accounting major from Mapleton, dont want it to be too serious. The first date should just be laid back and fun, Burrows said. The whole point is to have a good time, so I dont take it too seriously. After the guy takes the chill date route, he decides what kind of activities to do on dates. Burrows suggested doing something outdoorsy since we live in St. George. He said he likes doing cheaper dates like hiking, biking or golfing. He said these kind of dates give him a chance to talk to his date. But if youre not the great outdoors type, there are plenty of other things you can do on your first date. Many guys just want to hang out so they can get to know to to kJ will 3 ; I the girl. I almost always just hang out, Burrows said. Mostly because it is easy, and I am afraid of girls. For Deynon, the girls opinion also matters. I would usually hang out, but when I go on dates I ask the girl that Im taking what she wants to do, he said. A lot of guys take the route because its easy and doesnt require too much creative dinner-and-a-mov- ie thinking. For John Hernandez, a freshman computer programming major from Round Rock, Texas, the idea for a dinner and a movie is too cliche. Dinner and a movie is great, but often is overused, he said. I say spice it up a bit. And if the guy feels like he had a good time after the date, he will ask her out again, but this time on a nicer date. Some advice to the girl going on first dates with these types of boys: Dont expect too much. Some guys just want an easy going first date where they can get to know you, so go in with an open mind and if it goes well, hell take you out on a nicer date. BY RHETT SULLIVAN Copy Editor So you like a girl, and you finally muster the courage to ask her out. ow what? The first date can be intimidating because any future with a girl can depend on how this particular date goes. Though every girl is different, there are some definite dos and donts when it comes to first dates. But dont worry too much, the advice given here comes straight from the source. I was able to talk to some lovely ladies to help my fellow males out on the first date. First things first, have a plan. Dont be asking the girl what she wants to do on the date. Youre the one asking her out. Dont have the girl decide said Haley Leavitt, a student at Taylor Andrews Academy of Hair Design from Logandale, Nev. They want to feel like youve thought about them, and you have a plan F Laundry Through Emotional Hurt is piling Sadness This should be the easiest time to work out.

Well, working out has its benefits even in the most stressful times of your life. The body needs consistency, and through working out on a daily basis you can achieve just that. There are many different stresses in life from a mother having her youngest child go off into the world, to not being able to find your face wash at the end of tire night, stress is a wasnt going well.

When eating, eat. up, your gas is low, the house needs wE Cooper said she wouldi be enthusiastic if the date whirlwind of emotional ups and downs. BY ALISSA CURTO Staff Writer r This is one of tire hardest times to stay motivated. Not only do you most likely feel lethargic and fatigued, but the mind is also on other matters of life, and its hard to concentrate. Working out will help to make the body feel accomplished and also help get those thoughts of lethargy and fatigue out of the mind. How do I get myself to feel energized enough to do that, you might ask? Well its rough, but you have to let your mind free itself from any other situation in your life. Focus on that single moment in your life as you run or even lift weights. As Buddha said, When walking, walk. Through Anger down? There are times when feel like I cannot calm down until I do some sort I of physical activity, like my body is so tense that I cant even sit down. Yet when I run or even do pushups its as if my whole body relaxes into some sort of trance. During this work out you do not solely need to focus on the workout. You can actually let the emotion control the intensity of the physical activity taking place. elementary education major from St. George, said its nice when the guy has a plan. After the first activity, if you want to throw out some options, thats fine, but have a plan. It makes it easier and more enjoyable for the girl. When coming up with ideas to take out a girl for the first time, make sure you plan something that gives you time to talk and get to know your date. The first date definitely has to be where you get to talk a lot to each other, Judkins said. Movies are probably the worst first dates for me. Savannah Cooper, a sophomore general education major from Kanab, said she likes dates that are casual, fun and social. In fact, she prefers dates that arent too extravagant or formal. One date she liked in particular was a group date. The guys blindfolded the dates and drove them around town to get them lost. They ended up going to a local high school, and the guys had set up an array of games to play. It was really creative, something that we werent Through Jealousy in School or Relationships Honestly, how can you accomplish anything when youre trying so hard to prove something to somebody else? Or worried more about somebody else than yourself? My advice here is to not only control tire jealousy and forget about what other people are doing in their life or meddling in yours, but to also focus all that unneeded attention on a somewhat less intense workout. I would suggest Yoga or Pilates in this situation. Through a Booked Schedule Though this isnt an emotion, it is something that keeps anybody from doing what is necessary to stay healthy, including eating Judkins said she has been on some really fun group first dates, but its easier to get to know the person if its just the two of you. Most the time I prefer one on one, but group dates are fine too I guess, Judkins said. But most of the time (I prefer) one on one because then you can totally have full focus on the person. Judkins said she recently went on a first date where they ate Thai food. Her date served his LDS mission in Thailand and wanted to let her experience something important to him. I thought this was cool because he cared about Thailand, and he loved Thai food, so he wanted to share that with me, Jud- -' kins said. If its something that is close to them and something they have an interest in, then its fun to get to know them through the date that way. While making conver- - ' sation on your date, talk about things like where your date is from, how she grew up, what shes going into, and her interests and hohhipc habits and a healthy sleep cycle. So with this I recommend working out early in the morning, whether it is a brisk walk or run or even a morning toning session, 30 minutes is all you need. Does it feel like Im adding to your schedule? I can guarantee waking up 30 minutes earlier just to get through a great morning walk will make the rest of your day successful, and you will accomplish just as much. at probably go straight fort door if the date was bad But lets say the date went well, and shes not hurrying to the door. Should you kiss her? You know it has crossed your mind.' Well, it depends. Some girls, like Leavitt, dont have a strict rule on the matter. She said it depend.-owhether she really to the guy or not. Other girls, like Cooper said flat out no because sk likes to know a guy better before she kisses him Unless you have some definite chemistry, profirst bably from before the date, then I would say the classy thing and at wait for the second orthnd date. Since the whole idea ofa first date is to get a second date, its probably a good idea to call them after the first date. But how soon too soon? If the date went well I would say a couple do happy, you are probably healthy. So keep being happy! Yet dont let getting too involved out hanging with friends or doing great in school get in the way of also being physically happy with your own body and mind through workouts.
