Now, suppose this date did work out as planned and you really and thoroughly enjoyed the company of the other person you would want the other person to remember you and think about you, wouldn't you? So how do you make sure that the other person does think about you? The answer is simple. Just leave your mark behind. Mind you, a business or visiting card is not appropriate here. It lends a very formal color to the picture.
Surely you do not want the person to remember you for your credentials or your designation. Something more personalized would be more appropriate. Put your artistic and creative talents into full gear. If you are poetic, you could pen down a few lines on a small card and hand it to the person. Mind you, the lines should not be about the person, but about general topics like friendship, relationships, togetherness, warmth, or meetings. But do the writing in advance and keep it for the right moment.
Do not try to write a poem on a paper napkin with the person sitting in front of you! If you can't write poetry, maybe you could get some dried flowers and stick them onto a card and copy down the lines of somebody else, but admit that the lines are not your to the person.
Keep such a token with you and wait for the right moment. Just before you part, if you are sure that "this is the one" then hand it over to the person with a very shy expression on your face and a timid, "I made this for you…" Believe me, it's a lot better to say "I made this for you" than "I bought this for you".
So what happens if you are not too sure that you want to see this person again? Well keep it with you itself and save it for the next person. If the person is the right person, and if you did hand the person this personalized token, the person is sure to think of you in a much fonder way.
