Girls, don’t we all know what they tell us on Sex in the City: don’t sleep with a guy on the first date….well, let’s all be honest, it does happen. After all we women are only human as well and at the end it’s nothing but some good times shared between two likeminded people. But quite often at dawn we are not as happy about the situation as we were the night before. With the light of dawn we suddenly remember the numerous margaritas and our rendition of ‘So you think you can dance’. Don’t let embarrassment get the better of you, because we have collected some valuable tips to make the shame walk as graceful as possible!

(1) Don't give him the whole "I've never done this before" routine. That will just make him more likely to think of this as a repeat occurrence for you. No one needs to know how many strangers you've gone home with on multiple occasions. You should feel free to forget that number too, if you like.

(2) Don't overstay your welcome. You wake up, look at the clock, and you should already be glancing around the room, eyeing your belongings. Don't wait around in bed, especially after he gets up. Don't hang out while he takes a shower either. When the guy leaves the room to take his shower, he secretly is hoping that you will leave during that period of time. Unless he specifically indicates that he would like you to stick around, don't assume. Another indicator of him wanting you to stay would be if he actually invited you to shower with him. I still say you should leave, even when offered the invite. You don't want to seem too clingy or eager. Plus, that shower could be just another testosterone-filled excuse so he can score an extra morning session before he starts his day.

(3) Don't attempt to engage him in conversation. Not all guys are morning people, and having a conversation with a stranger you just woke up next to can be one of the strangest and most uncomfortable experiences. If you find that he's answering you in mono-syllables, that's your indicator right there that he just doesn't want to talk.

(4) Don't offer to leave your number or ask him to call you. When men want something, they will get it themselves. If he has any intention of calling you, he will ask that you write down your number before you leave.

(5) If possible, try to leave before he wakes up. It will make you that much more mysterious. And if he really likes you, he'll attempt to find you. Guys will go to great lengths for a girl they really view as worth the effort.
