Just Be Yourself?






 Hello blogfam...hp y'all are gud. Was thinking of something and I wanted to share it with you guys. Okay so am here debating about what to wear for a dinner date...yh I hv a date and it's a first....so I hv to choose wisely. Like its a proper restaurant...not like nandos or smethin, so I hv to dress smartly, but wt does dressing smartly mean....like I cnt just wear t-shirt and jeans...okay I get it. I hate dressing up...aargh. I actually caused this predicament for myself...we could easily hv gone to watch a movie.

Like should I be sexy on the first date and show some cleavage..maybe cleavage is not a really gud idea..I want us to have a proper convo..I dnt want him to not be able to keep his eyes on my face. Or maybe go for the girl next door look....like just a safe option..all buttoned up but then I don't want him to think am a prude, or that am boring....Also maybe piling up the jewellery might not be a good idea, I dnt want him thinking I hv the money miss road syndrome ...also nt too many colours..dnt want to blind the boy...gosh..so many options

Anyways all this debating led me to call my friend and she just made it worse by uttering these words 'just be yourself'....huh..wt does tht mean? Like I hear that a lot and I actually use to tell people tht too but it's not easy. If I was to be myself...I would be having the first date in a cinema with me wearing a top and jeans....okay if I ws truly being myself...I wud be huddled under my blanket sleeping cos it's too cold to be goin on a date sef. If I decided to go on the date as myself...I would be in flats or my boots....no heels.

Like I would really like people to explain what, just be yourself means....I really don't get it. How many ppl cn truly be themselves...like you go on a first date with the person....a girl might not want to wear make up but she has to, just to keep up appearances. Or like a boy tht invites you to his place..if he really wants to be himself...he wud rather watch super sports or play FIFA and eat left over pizza.

So my question is what does be urself mean and cn u ever truly be yourself when you meet someone for the first time.

And with all this story of life...still dnt knw to wear...oh well. Hv a blessed week guys

  3. In my opinion, the first appearance has to be a charmer. If I were being myself,nd I was on a proper date with me,meeting "me" for the first time, I certainly would want to make an impression. I won't carry my chicken bone crushing, homebody, series loving self to meet me. I think you av to get comfortable with the person u r on a date with, then u can be urself. Goodluck
