How to Ask Someone Out on a Date
The BEST person to start romance relationship is someone that you’re already good friends with. That is, a great friendship is really necessary for a great relationship. You should really enjoy each other’s company, spending time together. That’s the whole reason you’re a couple.
So start out like you would with any other friend. Learn about the things they like. If she loves horses, get a book on horses and learn about them too. Ask her questions about them. People who love a topic love to talk about the topic. You’ll learn something in the process, and the more time you spend together, the better your friendship!
People always ask “What do we talk about?”. There’s no magic formula – “talk about snowflakes” or “talk about the weather”. Best friends talk about things they are interested in. Find out what this person’s interests are, and talk about them.
Once you’re on speaking terms, and are comfortable talking to each other, then the next step is to see a movie that you’re both interested in. You both take Spanish and like Spanish? You suggest you go to see a Spanish movie when it comes around. It’s far less stressful when it’s a common interest, and you’re both already used to talking about the topic.
Now that you’re doing things together, step the emotional side up a notch. Friends hug each other, say hello and goodbye. So you’re already doing that, right? If not, start it up. If you are, then now give that hug with a soft kiss on the cheek. When you’re walking, loan her your jacket or ask him to borrow his. The more you do these small things, the more “normal” it will be, and soon enough, the dates will be of the boyfriend-girlfriend variety. Take it in stages, and it all works out easily.
Find the English equivalents of the given words collocations in the text.
Романтические отношения, замечательная дружба, наслаждаться обществом друг друга, учиться по ходу дела (в процессе), волшебное средство, непринужденно общаться, появиться в прокате (о фильме), напряженный (натянутый), повысить эмоциональный уровень отношений, обниматься, невинный поцелуй в щеку, одолжить (пиджак), свидание, разнообразие, делать постепенно (поэтапно), идти как по маслу.
Mark the statements true or false.
You’d better start dating with the person you know well.
It’s not necessary to spend most tome together if you are a couple.
The best conversation topic is weather.
If the person you are dating with loves horses, speak only about them.

In order to add more emotions to your relationships you should start kissing each other passionately.
Everything will be OK if you don’t be too fast in developing your relationships with the person you like. G
