- Choose the Right Setting
The location sets the tone for your date. Opt for your place, theirs, or a hotel where you both can feel relaxed. For a Tinder hookup, choosing a hotel ensures safety and provides a comfortable environment to get to know each other. You don’t have to worry about them knowing your address immediately and no one is kicking anybody out.
- Set The Mood
There are multiple ways you can set the mood for your first Tinder hookup—think dinner, bars, late night walks, etc. Like what Danielle mentioned in the video, you can also do this by simply asking them questions. One question that’s direct but usually does the trick: “Can I kiss you?”
Sometimes, you can also set the mood before you meet up. Sending smooth pickup lines can help you with that!
[P.S. You don’t have to worry if these are pick up lines to use on guys or girls — they work on anyone!]
