Casual dating – uncomplicated time for two

Not everyone is looking for the great love and even if, so the time until you have found this, can be bridged with the so-called casual dating excellent. Uncomplicated dates, where everything is possible, but nothing is a must. In a world with dating apps, online portals & Co, dating without commitments has become easier than ever before.

It offers you the opportunity to meet many different people and, above all, to get to know yourself better. So casual dating is also a great way to just try out who or what you like. After all, you never have to see each other again if you don’t want to. But how do you prepare a date if it’s already concretely planned for a hot night, or at least you want to keep all your options open?

What does casual dating stand for?

• Everything possible, but not a must
• Trying out
• Open options

Tip 1: Communication

It doesn’t matter if you met your date online or in person, or if it’s a blind date: A little communication beforehand is important so that you know who or what is coming up. In addition, it is anything but unusual in dating apps & Co to talk in advance about the respective expectations of the date. Unfortunately, not everyone is honest about this, but many people are open about the fact that they are only interested in something firm or just something casual, for example. So if you’re unsure whether they’re both approaching the date with the same goals, it’s worth simply asking. As we all know, it doesn’t cost anything to ask!

How should you communicate?

• Before the date
• Talk about expectations
• Question about the goal of the date

Tip 2: Location

What follows now is the concrete planning, namely the question of when and where the meeting will take place. Depending on the type of date, the appointment can take place directly at home, so as not to waste time, so to speak – then mutual trust is the key. So especially women should not just go to a stranger’s home. It is therefore better to start the date in public and decide spontaneously how to proceed. If, on the other hand, you are looking for a permanent relationship and want to get to know your counterpart first, romantic places are a perfect choice: a chic restaurant, the botanical garden, a lake or river shore, a drive-in movie theater…there are no limits to your creativity in this regard.

Where is the location?

• At home when trust is there
• Public in case of uncertainty

Tip 3: Body care

Even if you don’t plan to be physically close, every date can turn out unexpectedly. It is therefore worthwhile in any case to devote yourself to personal hygiene in advance: shave, wash your hair, apply cream to your skin, paint your nails – prepare yourself so that you feel completely comfortable in case the date turns out to be hotter than expected. This way you won’t put unnecessary limits on yourself and you’ll radiate self-confidence, which in turn will make you look more attractive. A “beauty day” before the date is therefore a good idea in any case and can be designed according to your individual ideas.

How should you care for yourself?

• Feel good all around
• Prepare correctly
• Be clean

Tip 4: Outfit

There is still the question of the perfect outfit and this should also be right from the top to the bottom layer. What is to be seen, of course, should fit the type and location of the appointment. Your outfit can accordingly range from casual jeans to elegant evening wear and must reflect your personality. So wear what you feel comfortable in, is the most important principle in this regard. This also applies to your underwear: you should feel sexy in it if the date leads to a hot night. Women like to choose lace underwear for this purpose, even if its care is not entirely uncomplicated, because it simply gives them a uniquely seductive feeling. Men have less choice in this regard and usually go for classics like boxer shorts, which best show off their assets.

Which outfit should I choose?

• Matching the location
• Reflect personality
• Pay attention to underwear

Tip 5: Small talk

The biggest fear most people have on a date is embarrassing silence. It’s therefore worth thinking about possible topics of conversation in advance. Most dates start with classic small talk: about the weather, about hobbies, about the job – just as the topics arise. So, in case of a sudden silence, you can prepare some questions, because you shouldn’t start talking about yourself all the time. If, on the other hand, you want to make the date more impersonal or unusual, more creative topics of conversation are possible: for example, come up with scenarios like “what would you do if you won the lottery today?” or show humor with stories like the one about your most embarrassing experience. Again, there are no limits to your creativity. Ultimately, the date should be one thing above all, namely fun.

What should we talk about?

• Small talk about weather & co.
• Prepare questions
• Don’t just talk about yourself

Tip 6: Approach

If the chemistry is right, sooner or later there is usually an attempt at a physical approach. This can come from both the man and the woman. The motto is therefore courage. However, it is important to read the signs whether he or she wants this at all – and to accept a “no”. You yourself also need to set boundaries if something makes you uncomfortable. Thus, the date can end before the first kiss or in bed after all, depending on how both decide this by mutual consent. Even with sexual acts, it is allowed to try something, but of course only if he or she wants to. Again, communication is the be-all and end-all for a successful date.

How should one approach?

• Plenty of courage
• “Being able to accept “no
• Decide together

Tip 7: Honesty

This also applies to the last tip, namely that of honesty. This is even important in casual dating. This means honestly discussing your own expectations for the date or the time afterwards. It means being honest if something goes too fast or too far for you. And it also means honestly explaining any break in contact after the date. Because methods like so-called ghosting, which has unfortunately been rampant for several years (not only) in the dating world, cause unnecessary frustration and possibly even pain. Therefore, you should also be honest from the beginning when it comes to the question of what you are looking for, whether you would like to meet again, whether you can imagine more with him or her…and so on. At first glance, this may sound annoying, even exhausting. But at second glance it will save you a lot of drama if you play your cards right from the start. Nevertheless, you can’t expect your counterpart to do the same. Once again, it is therefore worthwhile to let a (casual) date come to you in a relaxed manner and simply wait and see where it leads.

Value honesty:

• Discuss expectations and future honestly
• Be honest to avoid ghosting

Conclusion: Self-discovery in dating

Finally, you can define for yourself what constitutes a hot date for you and how far you want to go. With the right preparation and the tips mentioned, you will then experience exactly the day, the evening or the night, which you have imagined in advance. At the same time, the date will only be really exciting if you let it come to you a bit and are open to the unexpected – of course, while maintaining your boundaries. Because even in casual dating there are unwritten rules: Discretion, no jealousy or violence, and the aforementioned honesty. Then all eventualities can occur from a one-time date to the very big love. Have fun!

Outfit, manners & body language: The biggest do’s and don’ts on a date

Of course you only want to show the best side of yourself on a date. But then sometimes you are suddenly so perplexed by the breathtaking view of the person opposite that you actually feel like all brain cells are switched off. So that this doesn’t happen to you, we are happy to help you with our ultimate guide.

Suit, jeans, shirt or sweater: The right outfit

Before the date, the question of the right clothes is of course one of the most important. And the wrong outfit can also be a real deal-breaker and thus quickly lead to the first basket. But which outfit is perfect for the first date? Rather casual or casual? Jeans or suit trousers? It all depends on the right mix, says influencer Alex Kosta. Decisive factors here are the combination of parts, the location, the time of day and how well you already know the lady. Of course the shoes should be clean and the hair should be neatly styled. You can see how it works here.

Table manners in the restaurant: From the welcome to the farewell

Every woman is different and so naturally has different ideas about dating. But the ladies all agree on one thing: bad table manners are an absolute no-go. Especially on the first date, some men shoot themselves out with it. But how does a woman expect to be welcomed at the table? Who pays the bill? Why is it important to treat the waiter correctly and how do you say goodbye afterwards? These questions are answered here. With a little humour, of course.

Interpreting body language correctly: Eye flirtation, foot positions & mischievous smiles

During the date it is always important to interpret the body language of the other person correctly. This can sometimes lead to a lot of confusion, as many signals can be misinterpreted and red flags can be easily overlooked. Only those who interpret the body language of the other person correctly can react appropriately. YouTuber Dan Bacon in particular is familiar with this. He describes here which signals a woman sends out during dates – often even without knowing it.

Prominent tip from Hollywood legend Tiffany Haddish

Actress and Hollywood icon Tiffany Hadish knows all about the dating scene. After all, she has been the leading actress in many a romantic comedy. In an exclusive interview with the renowned men’s magazine GQ, she reveals her biggest dating secrets and tells the modern man of today how he can best wrap his sweetheart around his finger. Check out the informative (and to be honest also really funny) clip here.

What is WeightWatchers?

Over millions of women and men have already lost weight with WeightWatchers. But WW is not defined by how many kilos their customers leave behind, but by the fact that losing weight is fun for the customers. The acceptance to have sometimes more success and sometimes less, because in the end the target weight is a long way.

Recipes for classic menus and trend food

Weight Watchers doesn’t want you to miss out on your favorite snacks, meals, or ingredients. Through a quiz, they will create a diet plan tailored to you to get the best results for you. Changing your diet may seem like a quick thing to say, but the real challenge is in everyday life and successfuly integrating your diet plan there. Weight Watchers offers behavioral strategies to help clients best integrate their diet into their daily lives.

How does the points system work? Calculate & Co.

The points system is a program developed by Weight Watchers in which each participant has a Smartpoints budget. This must be adhered to in order to achieve success. Different meals and foods have different numbers of Smartpoints and this makes the whole program very clear which foods should be included or reduced in the daily diet. The budget is calculated from age, height, weight and gender.

What can the WW app do?

The WW app puts all your data in one place. It’s the place where you can track your weight, search for recipes and collect rewards for healthy habits. A mobile recipe book with advice, an online community and all in one a place of motivation to pursue your goals.

The new meeting – I was there! My experiences

A location, over 60 influencers, a star chef + Motsi Mabouse and all that at one event? I take you with me and show you my experiences from the event. A day full of surprises, happy faces and of course delicious food.

Influencer, celebrity chef & Motsi Mabouse

Today, all WW influencers meet to celebrate common successes but also to talk about news, at WW, privately and in the community. Who has tried out which recipe? How are you getting on with the new points system? It’s the perfect time for small talk and reunions, after a long time. WW is not only proud of the many individual successes of its customers, but also rewards the stamina and cooking enthusiasm of WW Influencers once a year with a festive event. For this purpose, all influencers who report on their evening journey on Instagram are invited to eat together, exchange ideas and have a good time together.

Blue carpet & chocolates – Feel good with WW

The FourtyFour in Düsseldorf is probably one of the most beautiful locations to celebrate this festive occasion. Upon entering the lobby, the girls could see the WW logo on a large billboard and knew that they were welcome and the day could now officially start. 4 elevators brought different groups of influencers to the top floor, where a WW blue carpet was already rolled out and a waiter handed out WW chocolates. Curious looks abounded as the 4-meter Christmas tree was spotted in the winter sun. A Polaroid camera was used to shoot a cute portrait of each influencer, with personal signature for a large photo wall. The view to the right showed a press wall, where the first interviews and photos were already shot. Straight ahead you could see a beautifuly prepared show kitchen, lovingly designed with small herb beds and seasonal vegetables and fruits served in slate bowls. Here, later on, Andi Schweiger, star chef also known from TV and cooperations with WW, will prepare dishes from his new cookbook with WeightWatchers. Through a platform with skins and cushions with a perfect view of the spectacle.

Celebrity chef Andi Schweiger – star food and delicious recipes

A very special highlight for all participants was the star chef, Andi Schweiger, everyone knows and loves him. He enchants the WW community not only on Youtube, live with show cooking and subsequent talk he is also live at the event. Andi has been working with WW for quite some time now, doing cooking classes with enthusiastic fans. The menu of the day was inspired by his cookbook, which became reality together with WW. As a starter a pumpkin soup, as a main course a lamb fillet with fresh red cabbage and black salsify potato pancakes and as dessert a poppy seed cake with plum compote. His cookbook called “Genial Saisonal!” was also available as a gift for all the girls and went down great. Everyone could have their book signed and take a photo with star chef Andi.

Talks and Magazine Cover

Next to the show kitchen was a large table set with purple flowers and gorgeous table decorations. Surrounded by glass facade, the whole ambience looked super inviting to enjoy the occasion in the perfect mood. From the tables, each influencer had a good view of the podium where the talks with Starkohc Andi Schweiger and Motsi Mabouse were held. At the other end of the room, a bit hidden but very classic, there was a press corner where plants and couches were used to create a comfortable feeling and a nice backdrop for all the interviews. Here there is a chance for influencers to talk about their experience with Weight Watchers and their personal progress, of course giving a few tips. The whole day is filled with talks from celebrity guests, the food and other small activities. Like the studio set up to give the girls a chance at a shoot, which will be their own personal WW magazine cover afterwards.

Dancing with Motsi Mabouse

As a special Motsi Mabouse, judge of Let’s Dance in Germany and UK, visited the event and talked about her own eating habits, her new child and how conscious she is about her diet since then. The event was rounded off with a dance class by Motsi and all the influencers had the chance to let their dancing legs swing in a personal coaching session. An unforgettable experience for all participants.

What a day! Cozy living room vibes

As the program slowly came to an end, the atmosphere became very relaxed and reminded of a big living room with a cozy, family feeling. All the girls had the opportunity to sit together, take pictures and enjoy a warm mulled wine on the roof terrace while the sun was setting. On this very roof terrace, a drone was then launched and everyone was able to wave into the camera for the incredible shots. As the event drew to a close, each influencer was given a goodie bag to take home with them, full of little surprises. The new cookbook “Genial Saisonal!” by star chef Andi Schweiger, snacks from the WW Shop and a cookbook for working people. All influencers left the event with a good feeling, new stories and lots of new information for a good life.

Program highlights on influencer events

The A & O: food!

Food is in a good mood and of course you want to have it at an event. It is great if you can connect the food with a conscious Fun Fact. Of course, there are many different ways to present food and, of course, different things to serve. What arrives good and what is fun, I’ll show you now.

The classic: buffet from the catering

Of course this is the easiest way to serve food. There is a lot of choice, everyone finds something and you can sit comfortably together while eating, exchange ideas, meet new people or just enjoy.

The Candybar: My highlight with cupcakes & more

There are many ways to put the candybar around. Whether macarones, cupcakes a gummy selection, cotton candy or chocolate. The Candybar offers a wide range of options. Everyone can choose something and it’s more than finger food. People eat while standing it’s a laid back atmosphere.

The mixture of both: Fingerfood & Candy!

You want more than just finger food and sweet serve but not directly a huge buffet must build. Of course, there is also a variant where you can mix light food with the fun of a candy bar. These include, for example, salad bars, where you can put together salad yourself, plates with hearty finger food on the tables and possibly a few sweets as a dessert here and there. People can sit and choose whether they want a proper meal or just appetizers. Especially since this variant can run in parallel next to the normal program.

Influencer Events: Full program with products and talks

Of course, the influencers do not just want to go to an event to eat and meet others. Often the program specializes in the brand. Such a program is easy for beauty manufacturers, as they can work a lot with their products and themes. For all the others I have some ideas here.

Individual events: Personalize and do it yourself

It has a certain fun factor and after the event you have a very special memory of the day. Personalizing clothes or accessories is possible in a variety of forms. For example, patches, small stickers made of fabric, which are pressed by heat on clothing. A great way to quickly and beautifuly turn your clothes into something special.

Social Media Content: Great Class Reunion

The intention of such a meeting is, of course, a large reach of people to talk to. Of course, using the followers of the Influncer on such a meeting is the main intention. In order to provide the influencers with good footage for posting, things like a boomerang box or a photo wall are great.

The best of being a #lorealista? Being surrounded by amazing ladies – so different but perfect im there own way. Thanks for these experiences in Amsterdam @lorealmakeup & @denise_lorealparisde? #lorealsquad #amsterdam #influencerevent #bomberjacket #edited

Make-up and Styling Corner: The Must Have for Bloggers!

Since most influencers are female, make-up corners are great. The influencers can get make-up tips and the fun factor is missing there by no means.
