How to Be Happy with a First Date

Video Transcript

"Gray skies are going to clear up, put on a happy face or how to be happy with a first date. This is Dr. Paul, author of "Boomer Girls, a Boomer Woman's Guide to Men and Dating" and host of "Ask Dr. Paul". My friends I will tell you this. Putting on that happy face is almost infectious. That other person is also going to put on a happy face and that's how to be happy with a first date. You have to play that role. If you want someone else to be happy then you have to project that to them. It is almost like group psychology. How many times have you seen a cartoon and then all of a sudden everybody is looking in the air, everybody is looking in the air? Why there is nothing there but one person is doing it so the other people say what's going on? So if you want to put on a happy face and you want to have a happy first date then act happy. You are playing that role. You may have had a miserable day at work, it may have been your worst day of your working career but when you have that day you throw that baggage over your shoulder, it's gone and now you are with this person. This should be the happiest moment in your life. You might be married to this person one day. This may be the love of your life and if you blow it, if you don't get involved with it, and you don't put on that happen face and project a positive attitude you are not going to have a happy date and we want you to have a happy date. This is Dr. Paul. May your fantasies of today be your realities of tomorrow."
