Some men have asked me why they feel empty after the first date. I think that can happen sometimes, partly because some men have dating fatigue, and partly because they haven’t mastered the most fundamental principle of the first date yet. If you are looking to date a woman from Eastern Europe, my advice in this blog article will probably give you some new insights into the first date.

  • The most paramount principle of the first date: be curious about her.

I’d like to start this section by introducing the power of curiosity. 

About ten years ago, my mentor wrote an article about why passion is overrated: A lot of people are looking forward to discovering something exciting and building a career about that area. However, most people are disappointed, confused or lost in this process because they think passion is the answer. As a matter of fact, every passion starts somewhere; usually, it begins from curiosity. So, instead of asking “What am I passionate about?”, you’d better ask yourself, “What am I curious about right now?”

Curiosity opens the door for you!

Now let’s implement this idea in the dating department. When you go out for a date with a woman from Eastern Europe, you would be well-advised to approach the first date with curiosity rather than the mindset of “What’s in it for me?”

Yes, when you are curious about someone, the date becomes a journey of discovery. You ask high-quality questions and have intelligent conversations with the woman from Eastern Europe. 

  • Dating should be a part of your life; it shouldn’t be your entire life.

As I see it, your love life is only one part of your life; it can’t be your entire world. Therefore, dating should be something that you do after work/self-care/etc.

When you finish your work for the day, you go out for a date which lasts for 30 minutes to 1 hour. In this way, the date is something that makes your satisfying life more interesting. You already feel happy and fulfilled because your current life is already amazing. A partner will simply make your life even better.

Remember: a partner won’t solve your problems for you; a partner will add value to your wonderful life.

Indeed, when you approach the first date with this new mindset, I’m sure you won’t feel empty again after the first date.

“Please approach the first date with joy, lightness, appreciation and gratitude because the very first date is actually about discovering something interesting about someone new.”
