For the Love of God, Don’t Wear Any of These Things to a First Date

Many things can go wrong on a first date: the waiter can turn out to be your ex who then “mistakenly” pours gbegiri on your shoe, or the beans you ate for breakfast decides to show itself. But unless you want to really test your village people, don’t wear any of these things.

Your work T-shirt

Unless you work with a tech company, in which case, feel free to let everyone know that your pocket is nobody’s mate. Purr.

Sunglasses

Unless the date is directly under the sun, what exactly are you trying to hide? Imagine telling a joke and not knowing if the other person likes it because you can’t read their expression.

Ashawo shorts

Man dem, we know the ladies love seeing you in ashawo shorts, but a first date isn’t the place to be opening your legs everywhere.

Someone else’s clothes

Imagine you then run into the owner’s ex and they get triggered at the sight of the jeans that Amaka never returned.

Hoodies

This one is for the guys. If that hoodie is still in your possession at the end of the night, then Nigeria is the new Canada.

Bodycon dresses

Especially if you’ll be eating during the date, ladies. You wouldn’t want to be limited by ordinary cloth. Except you don’t mind looking six months pregnant, in which case, go off and do you, sis.
