How Do You Say Hello On A First Date?

How do you say hello on a first date?

Those first few moments always make me a bit nervous! I usually go for a hug because, well, I’m a hugger. Sometimes I kiss my date on the the cheek too, not in a romantic way, but because I’m used to saying hello to my friends in the latin dance world that way (a kiss on both cheeks with my Canadian friends!).

Most people are okay with the hug and a little caught off guard by the kiss.

How do you say hello on a first date? Do you hug, shake hands, smile at each other and refrain from physical touch all together? Let me know in the comments below!
