Krystal Walter Matchmaking - Top Dating Tips for Valentine's Day

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Feb. 13, 2017) - With Valentine's Day fast approaching, the topic of dating and first dates is top-of-mind for many Albertans. Krystal Walter, professional matchmaker and owner of Krystal Walter Matchmaking, has developed eight tips to help those heading out for a date. Walter has provided many singles with tips and tricks to coach them through first date fears.

"Dating doesn't have to be a game, but keeping a few rules in mind can improve the odds of success," says Walter. "Throughout my years of matching Alberta singles, I have come to learn that one's actions before, during and after can make or break a date."

Walter's offers the following advice for Valentine's Day dating:

Pre-date preparation

1. Don't rush - knowing what to look for in a partner is the first step, it's not about finding companionship as much as finding the right companion.
2. Friends don't always know best - avoid asking for outside opinions as this can cloud personal judgments.
3. Pictures don't capture it all - use caution, as photos don't always grab someone's personality.

Location, location, location

4. No coffee shops - coffee houses tend to have a fast paced atmosphere that can make first dates feel rushed.
5. Make it TV free - screens can consume attention and detract from conversation, so choosing a venue with a relaxed, intimate atmosphere is important.

The day of

6. Relax - the first date is not an audition for marriage, it's simply a tryout for a second date.
7. Play nice - there is merit to being warm and kind. Laughing at bad jokes isn't necessary, but it's always acceptable to admit to having a good time.
8. Be impressionable - make the right amount of eye contact, smile, remain focused on the conversation and - most of all - have fun!
