The phrase Netflix and Chill has become synonymous with hooking up. It’s like a secret code among the singles of society. The phrase began as an internet viral sensation but seems to be around for the long haul. At least as long as Netflix is an entity. It does mean a lot more than that, however. On a Netflix and Chill date, there is a certain etiquette to ensure the most successful night ever. Not much different than a usual hookup date, but the subtleties are important. What you don’t want to happen is to invite over a woman to Netflix and Chill and she just shows up to binge watch Dexter.

Your Outfit Should Be Comfy but as Fresh as Hers

She knows it’s a date at the house. In a comfortable situation, her choice of clothing will be something she can lounge in. This isn’t the date she’ll show up to in a glimmering gown or miniskirt and high heels. No, this date entails comfy yoga pants and favorite concert Tee. This is not to say that comfortable converts to unkempt or messy. In fact, she will come over looking as cute as ever. Your job is to match that look. Not in color or pattern but in style and comfort. The best way to accomplish this is to wear fashionable joggers or sweatpants with a sports themed Tee, preferably one that shows your muscled chest. The sweatpants should be tight but not uncomfortably so, just tight enough to give her something to look at. Don’t be fooled by stereotypes. Women also look at men’s packages to judge their contents.

Cocktails & Food

It’s important to have something to snack on and a little alcohol of her choosing. It’s fun, and gives her a little giggle if you plan your food and drink around the movie you plan to watch. If you plan to catch a few gangster flicks serve some cheeses, Italian deli meats, pastas and red wines. Planning to watch a few karate flicks? Deck out the bar with sushi, fried rice and shots of sake. Having a little spread like this helps to loosen her up and set her inhibitions free. It takes the edge off of trying to make opening conversation and shows you have a sense of humor but also style and
character.
 

 

Room Temperature Means Something

The temperature of the room can have a lot to do with how the evening turns out. A chilly room invites snuggling under a blanket and a scary movie. Heat that room up to about 85 degrees and watch her peel off the clothes one at a time. She’ll even warmer watching Miami Vice or some other movie located in a hot place.

Massage and Caress

Women love to be tenderly touched and just like everyone else, they enjoy feeling appreciated. While you’re into the movie, offer to rub her shoulders, massage her back or her feet. Learn how to give a good massage here. Show her that you know how hard she works and exactly what she has to go through on a daily basis. There is a fine line between a friendly massage and a creepy one. Make sure not to cross it. You have to makes sure she is into it and interested in having you do it. Take the time to make sure she feels appreciated and she will return the favor.

Cleanliness Works

Before you even take a shower and get yourself ready for your Netflix and Chill date, you should get your place ready. Make sure your home smells good and is clean. Most women will not stay in a filthy environment long. If she does, she isn’t the type of girl you want. You don’t have to have a professional cleaning service do it and it doesn’t have to be spotless but this kind of date isn’t going to work if you have an infestation of roaches.

Shower Power

Once the apartment is clean, it’s time to spiff up yourself. Take a little extra time on your hair and nails. Make sure your manicured and trimmed up in all the right spots. Spend a while choosing the best cologne and the right amount of it. Another helpful little trick is to wait until she gets there to take your shower. Let her know you’ve been busy making things perfect for her and lost track of time. Jump in the shower and emerge in a towel. She will definitely notice and her mind will begin to turn. Go on to your bedroom to dress and emerge looking dapper.

Making a Netflix and Chill date is the perfect way to get to know a woman but it’s also a great way to spend the evening with someone you’ve had a long relationship with or just a sex buddy. It’s fun, inexpensive and entertaining.
