Let us begin with asking the girl out for a date. Always have a conversation with her before asking her out. This way you will know whether you two can get along.
If you are calling her on phone don’t forget to mention the conversations you had. This will give her the impression that you do listen, making her feel important. Then if you feel that it is time to ask her, go ahead; ask gently, not in a demanding manner.
Ask her when you both are alone. Never ask a girl out on a date in front of others. If she says no both of you will be embarrassed.
What to do during the date:
Make sure you look good, be neat. Put extra effort to the way you look. Take the time be well groomed, smell nice and choose your clothes well. It must correspond to the place with which your date is set.
Do not be late. Prepare for the big day ahead. Make the necessary reservations and planning for your date. If you have planned for it, she will be impressed that you did put some effort on your night together. Be sure that during the big day you have no appointments so you won’t be cramming and be on time.
It is very important to be polite. Be sure to make her feel good by complementing the way she looks. When seated at the table, turn your cell phone off. This will signal to her that you are very much interested in your moment together.
Say her name. Make it a point to say her name every so often in your conversations, to make her feel at ease and special.
Smile. Aside from putting up a positive attitude, your smile is an indication that you are happy to be with her.
Have a Sense of Humor. Making a woman laugh means you have won half your battle. This means that she is having a nice time and creates a positive atmosphere. This will be an occasion she would remember, because she had fun!
Be attentive. Listen to what she has to say, do not interrupt. Let her finish, before you state your opinion and make eye contact.
Be honest. Let her get to know you by telling her what you do and what interests you. If she does not like you for whom you are, then she is not worth your time. Show interest in her too, by asking her about her work, hobbies and her likes. Be sensible and honest in initiating such conversations.
Relax. Do not worry that your date is not having a good time. Go ahead and ask her. Just manage yourself well and enjoy the evening. Keep the conversations open and ask questions. Be sincere.
Do not pretend. Be yourself. The truth will always come out sooner or later. It is a rewarding feeling if someone is drawn to you for who you really are.
Never compare. It will be very unfair of you if you compare your date to your past girlfriend. Keep in mind that she is a totally different person with her own personality. Take the time to discover her; you might be pleased if you do. Comparing won’t get you anywhere.
Never tell your date about the break-up of a previous relationship. Keep in mind that you asked her out so you both could have fun together. She is not your therapist, so do not recount your past relationship. Bury the past and move on. Here is a woman in front of you who is interested to know you more. Get to know her too, initiate a conversation that could lead to a common interest.
Enjoy. Dating should be exciting and relaxing. A woman can sense if you are enjoying your time with her or not. Don’t stress yourself trying so hard to make it the perfect date because it won’t be. But you both can enjoy it. After all, you did invite her out because you liked her in the first place. Be spontaneous and have fun.
