10
basic first date tips.
For Guys...
- Be confident (and if you don’t feel confident – act
it!) – women love confidence in a man,
they find this incredibly sexy.
Take charge and revel in your masculine energy; ladies love to relax on dates
knowing that you have organised all the details. It's up to you to decide
where to go, book a table etc.
- Ask her questions about herself that allow
her to open up; listen intently and make sure
you nod, um and arrhhh in all the right places.

- If you really the girs, take her flowers on the first
date (the bigger the bunch the more points you score!)
Women love romance so if you can romance a lady, then
you're already at first base.
- Be attentive to her needs, make sure she is not too
hot/ cold, that she has a drink etc; women notice small
details like that.
- Look at her as much as you can (no ogling though!);
women love attention and they like to feel like they
are being admired.
- If you can afford it, pay for her on the first date.
You don't have to go anywhere expensive - a local gastro-pub
will do. But don't come across a bit of a meanie as
first impressions last.
- Take her somewhere on a first date that encourages
conversation - perhaps for meal and a nice glass of
wine - but in a bar or restaurant that isn't too noisy.
Remember, if you go somewhere like the cinema or a
football match, then you wont be able to chat and get
to know each other.
- Women always look at shoes, be sure yours reflect the
right image!
- A great smell can make a lasting impression. I have
often heard women talk about a guy's after-shave so
make sure you stock up on the CK1!
For Girls...
- Wait for a guy to ask you out – this may sound
old fashioned but men love the chase, allow yourself
to be pursued and enjoy it.
- Allow him to book a table, open doors, pay you compliments,
pay for the meal etc; give him control of the first date!
Be happy and be the type of person that men want to be
with; radiate good energy, smile and your date will be
all the more entranced.
- Approach the date with the aim of having fun; forget
about whether he is Mr Right and focus on just enjoying
yourself and having a good time.
- Compliment a man, the things he is doing for you, the
choice of meal etc – men love this.
- Take an interest in HIS interests. Don't just talk
about yourself and what you like to do.
- Don't mention your 'ex'! There'll come a time in
any relationship when both of you will talk about
your past relationships. Unless the guy specifically
brings up the subject, a first date really isn't
the time.
- Turn your mobile 'phone off. If you're taking calls
from your friends or reading texts, your date will
soon lose interest. Only keep your phone switched
on if you're expecting a VERY important call.
- If the guy has invited you out for a meal, be careful
how much you spend on his credit card. You don't
necessarily have to choose the cheapest items on
the menu, but don't order lobster and Champagne
either. If a man invites you out for dinner on
a first date, don't use it as an excuse to indulge
yourself in a way that you wouldn't do if you were
paying for yourself.
- Say thank you - in fact you should say it twice;
at the end of the date as you're saying goodnight
and then either in a follow-up 'phone call or by
text message the next day. Even if you don't want
to see him again (in which case, thank him by text!),
you don't want to give him the impression that you
have no manners.
