New blog and new blog post: Low-Stakes First Dates
I've created a new blog called Unsolicited Advice on Demand at
http://benjyfeen.com
The first entry is all about the design and execution of Low-stakes First Dates.
An excerpt:
Picture this: you take a thousand dollars out of the bank and go to Las Vegas. You put on your finest clothes and hit the nearest casino. You buy a $1000 chip and stride over to the roulette wheel, looking fabulous and confident. You put the thousand dollar chip on your lucky number, and the wheel spins…and you spend the rest of the weekend alone in your hotel room, wondering why bad things have to happen to you.
That’s how lots of first dates feel: with everything riding on the outcome of this one big chance, romance and excitement quickly give way to confusion and dejection. Sound familiar?
Don’t bet everything on the first date: lower the stakes.
