Dating Do’s And Don’ts For Gals

March 13, 2006 | Author: Cindy | Filed under: Dating Advice

Do you feel like you are wondering aimlessly out there in the dating world without a clue as to what proper dating etiquette is? Do you feel like you don’t know when and where to draw that line? Are you often the girl that gets passed over for that second date?

If just one of these questions comes up a yes for you, then it is time to take inventory and start dating smarter…
There comes a time in every single girls life, when she realizes that she just isn’t playing it as smart as she could. A few years ago I realized that I didn’t have a list of dating do’s and don’ts. I was flying by the seat of my pants and doing it badly at that! Then I began to take inventory. What were the key elements to a successful date? How could I ensure that I wouldn’t always be the girl waiting for the telephone to ring after hearing those dreaded words “I’ll call you.”
So if you are feeling that love has passed you, by try this simple list I have compiled before you give up on the whole dating scene:

Dating Do’s

Dress appropriately for the date. If you’re going to a ball game don’t dress in spike heels and a low cut dress.
Be interested and interesting.
Share at least three things about yourself; it lets him know something about you.
Compliment him. Who doesn’t like compliments?
Be on your best behavior. Never, never get drunk!
Thank him when he does something nice for you such as pull your chair back.
Be a good conversationalist. Show him that you are more than just a pretty face.
Eye contact is very important. This also shows interest.
Ask questions. This will give you a good idea whether you’re compatible.
Also, don’t be afraid to ask questions concerning values. Better to find out now…
Let him know you had a good time. This lets him know you might be open for another date.
Thank him for the evening.

Dating Don’ts

Don’t come on too strong or to eager. Any guy worth his salt will run!
Don’t make the first move when it comes to kissing or holding hands.
Don’t lie about the real you. If he doesn’t like you because of your religion, profession or because you have a Ph.D. then he isn’t for you.
By the same token, if he is an avid rock climber don’t tell him that you have scaled Mount Everest. The truth always reveals itself.
Don’t act eager for a commitment.
Don’t tell him your problems. It makes you sound like the walking wounded.
Don’t ask him about his ex or talk about yours.
Don’t Reveal too much too soon
Don’t Talk so much that you monopolize the conversation.
Don’t flirt with other men.
Don’t appear high maintenance.
Don’t try to make him jealous.
Don’t take him to a place your ex frequents.
Don’t assume you can change him.
And last but not least, if you know after a couple of dates he isn’t for you, move on.

congratulations for your good work,you are really doing great to assist people like us who are very new to this things and would like to go it right.
but i would suggest you go into details as this would really help.
this is my first love and certainly would not love to go in with another guy,i locked myself out into loving anyone as i never really believed in true love for what i have seen around me,and was fearing to fall in love but at the moment i have given in to trying and see if it can work right for me.thankyou

Hello all,

Well, there is some worthwhile advice here such as not coming over to desperate or eager. I agree most men will run for the mountains when faced with a woman like this.

However, this Victorian advice about a woman not making the first move is just appalling. For goodness sake, in today’s world men and women are striving for mutual equality. Why are we teaching women to play games and withold their affections.

Girls…..if you like a man then show him. Of course, I’m not suggesting you take him home on the first night for wild sex but nothing wrong with initiating holding hands or a nice kiss.

If you keep it sexy and simple and show him that you are willing to take some social risk he will admire you hugely.

hey

i deeply agree with the advice above but i think we pughta be honest about everything so by telling about your ex and asking about his you know what to think about when you go home and what not to.

If you chill until you are like two month old to say it, i reckon that it will be already too late.We kno men they could keep a skeleton in their closets for as long as you live.

What wrong have I done with him that he doesn’t keep in touch? I really was following all these advices as he is not the first man in my life. My friends’ husbands really envy my future husband, thinking that I am an ideal lady for HIm. But I am always facing the same kind of boys who fall in love and relax, having made me obedient. Do I really deserve it?

The advise is good.but i thing many of us forget is that u should NEVER divulge any important infomation abt ua self on the first date.1.where u live/work/study.esp.if ur meetng 4 the 1st time some maybe stalkers esp.ii things don’t work out.
2.live the address of where u intend to be with some1 you trust eg.ua sista/brotha,friend e.t.c.
3.make sure you have enough money,incase of an emergency i.e transport,paying the bill e.t.c
4.make sure your cellfon has credit,so that you can call someone incase of anything.

Undeniably imagine that that you said. Your favourite justification seemed to be at the net the simplest thing to bear in mind of. I say to you, I definitely get irked even as people consider worries that they just don’t realize about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing with no need side-effects , people can take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

After I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a remark is added I get 4 emails with the same comment. Is there any means you possibly can take away me from that service? Thanks!
