How To Handle A Post Date Situation If You Know People In Common

How should I handle a post-date situation if we know people in common?

If you and the woman you went on a date with actually have some of the same friends or people in common, as a general rule, if the date goes well then of course say, "Hey I had a great time", and let it be known to your friends. If it doesn't go so well, there's no point in saying it was a bad date; just let it go. Don't say anything to the friends if it was a bad date.
