the neck or cheek), holding hands now and
again, putting a hand on the other person's

when talking, putting your arm around the
person] can be reassuring.
GROUP DATES
Group dates are THE BEST for teenagers
because they're FUN and SAFE.
NEXT DATE?
HOW RESPONSIVE you are to
each other
should determine
whether there will beANOTHER NEXT DATE.
AN ENJOYABLE FIRST DATE may "feel
right" for a 2nd, but it's NO GUARANTEE
of a 2nd .one as the other person, for what-
ever reason, does NOT wish to spend more
time with you at least for a while: s/he may
be going away on holidays, may be visiting
relatives, may be attending a wedding or
funeral, etc.
NO NEXT DATE

in the other, there should be NO NEXT DATE.

THANKS FOR THE DATE.
I enjoyed going out with you. (You can say
what you like about the date.)
I'd like to have your phone # or e-mail address
so I can invite you out again.
I'll call around 7 p.m. on a Wednesday or I'll
e-mail you.
Which do you prefer?
Note: when you do call or e-mail
Note: the person, it's nice to
Note: say I was thinking of
Note: you.
BOUNDARIES

involved in that person's life.

your opinion regarding a personal matter:

NOT concern me: I don't want to get involve
any anybody's personal life.

END IT
Whenever there is any sign of controlling be-
havior, dishonesty, disrespect, negativity, fee-
ling used, taking phone calls, THEN, IT'S TIME
to END THE DATE saying: I'm so sorry, but I
really don't feel well. I do have to go now. Bye.
CAUTION: invading the person's
CAUTION: privacy (personal life)
CAUTION: is THREATENING,
CAUTION: AGGRESSIVE BE-
CAUTION: HAVIOR.
1 Week
You should NOT date the same person more
than once a week in the beginning.
3 Months
After 3 months, you should know wheater this
person is A GOOD FIT for you as a boy friend
or girl friend.
2 Years
THE UNSPOKEN RULE is ...
- you should NOT marry someone
PRIOR TO 2 years
- a DEAD-END relationship should
end by YEAR 2
TRUE LOVE
It's about wanting to make the other person
happy.
DATING QUESTIONS
A date is NOT THE TIME to ply a person with
lots of questions: talking about THE MOMENT
is always A GOOD IDEA as well as following
that up with a few questions.
A date is about GOING OUT AND DOING
ENJOYABLE THINGS.
That will allow for THE A COMFORT LEVEL
to grow which in turn will make THE ATTRAC-
TION GROW.

HUMOUR
HOTSTUFF:
I'm talking about us, Baby.
You're SO HOT: let's start A FIRE.
Is it HOT in here or is JUST YOU?
You are the paint and I'm the brush
and the bed is the canvas.
If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd
put i beside u.
Do you believe in love AT FIRST SIGHT
or should I walk by you again?
You must be AN ANGEL FROM HEAVEN:
let me SQUEEZE YOUR ARM to see if
you're REAL.
I just met you and my erectile dysfunction
is GONE! Amazing!
SEXUAL ACTIVITY
Kissing, hugging, holding hands, cuddling
are safe activities.
Any sexual activity can reach THE POINT
OF NO RETURN.
THEN, there's the possibility of contracting
A SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE
and pregnancy.
Any sexual activity implies A MORE COM-
MITTED RELATIONSHIP that one or both
may NOT WANT.
Any sexual activity will increase THE DA-
TING FREQUENCY and TIME SPENT
with that person reducing time spent on
other things and going out with other
people: in other words, IT WILL TIE
YOU DOWN making you LESS FREE.
CAUTION: should one (or both) NOT
CAUTION: BE READY, it can lead to
CAUTION: feelings of being used and
CAUTION: abused.
MORE PEOPLE
As you date MORE PEOPLE you'll GET
BETTER at dating and be A BETTER
DATE.
It also affords you the time and gives you
the experience in deciding on the kind of
lifetime mate you might want to have.
