It's true that dating is never easy. People try to exert effort and plan ahead if they have a scheduled an incoming date. Dating could be crucial and so everyone must take some precautions on choosing a date. After all the arrangements and date have been agreed upon, its time to think about what might happen during a date and be prepared for it.

Whether it is a first date, second or tenth date, it's important to prepare not only what to wear but also what to bring during that special event. It's a must to bring things that are only needed and necessary not only to lessen the weight of your bag but also to minimize the distraction that may occur caused by those unnecessary things. Below are the things you may need to take with you on a date;

Bag/Purse - Of course! You need a small bag or purse where you can put all your necessary things. The bag/purse should have a size just enough for the things you want to bring to fit in. It's a big no-no to bring oversize bag because it stirs a turn-off feeling.

Make-up Kit - Yes, this is necessary! You should remind yourself that you must look good during a date. Try to freshen up by applying some make-up that would enhance your beauty more. Just bring the small size make-up kit enough for you to retouch your paint. But take note not to retouch in front of your date, be respectable and fix yourself in the comfort room.

Keys - Some people forget to bring the keys of their home that is why they end up sleeping with their date's house. Be reminded that it's not advisable to sleep with your date during first dates. Check your bag if it contains the key before leaving your house. This should also be done so that your housemates will not be disturbed with their goodnight sleep and need not open the doors for you in case you go home late at night.

Cash - Though it is customary for the guy to pay for the bills during a date but always be ready with cash on hand or a credit card. We do not know what will happen and maybe there will be a turn of events (maybe the guy left his money in his car). Also nowadays, there are cases in which the girl pays for the bill.

Phone - Always bring a phone wherever you go. Though it may cause distraction during your conversation with your date, there's still the possibility that someone in need will call you. For it to be less disturbing, try to put it in a silent mode. Just peek at your phone once in a while making sure your date is not bothered with it. And if you receive an important call, don't forget to give distance from your date when already conversing with your caller.

Medicine - If you have some illnesses or allergies, always bring with you your medicine for that particular disease or allergy.
