When you are out on a first date, it means you have an opportunity to create a beautiful story out of it. The first date means you have been given a chance. However, at times, guys mess up the first date. When the girl starts ignoring them subsequently, they wonder what went wrong. A conscious effort, on the other hand, can help them avoid a potential disaster and pave way for building a relationship. Observing the girl is a good way to start, as there will be signs to identify whether she is comfortable or she isn’t.

1. She looks around restlessly

If the girl isn’t interested in you and is looking around restlessly, it is an important sign to let you know she isn’t comfortable. In most cases, it could just be an indicator that she wishes she were somewhere else. You should be smart enough to make the girl comfortable on her first date by making her talk more about herself than going on with lengthy monologs about your own life and experiences.

2. She starts talking about how busy her schedule is

This is definitely not about how important or busy she is. If she has made time to come out on the date, she can handle her schedule. Her constant rambling about how many things she has to manage are just ground work for leaving early. In other words, you are scaring her off and making her leave early, by doing whatever you are doing on the first date.

3. She constantly checks her phone

This is too obvious a sign for guys to understand. In your first date, all your attention should be directed towards her, and all her attention should be on what you say. If she is fidgeting with her phone, checking the time and constantly replying to messages, it is a sign that she is either bored or turned off.

4. She veils information

If you are on a first date, chances are you would be asking each other about work, office, home and other such details that have a slightly personal note to them. If she isn’t giving away information freely, veiling even bits like where she works or where she lives, it means she isn’t fully confident of your intentions. This should let you know, she isn’t comfortable enough telling you confidential things about her life that a stranger shouldn’t know.
