Here are a few things you should steer clear of when you are struggling to impress your girl.
Are you worried you will end up offending her with your histrionics on your first date? Well, one of the easiest ways to have a successful date is to remember to be yourself.
She is probably just as nervous as you are, and this knowledge will take you a long way. Be your chivalrous best, and keep in mind that a little flattery can’t hurt. But always be sincere with your compliments because mindless flattery can work against you. Gift her flowers—yes we know it’s ancient—but it usually works.
Do not talk about your ex.
Girls do not like it if you start bashing your ex on the first date. It is a complete turn off to listen to a man talk about the other women in his life in a derogatory manner. She doesn’t want to hear about it, despite what you think. Don’t make her wonder—is that how he will talk about me to other women?
Do not boast about how many women you have dated.
This is definitely the number one turn-off… No woman would like to hear her date bragging about how many women he has had sex with. She does not need to hear how good you are in bed. If she is sexually interested in you (never on your first date, that’s for sure), trust us, she will let you know. She would not like it if you gave the impression that you slept with every single woman you laid eyes on.
Do not order food for her.
It is safer to ask her what she would like to have instead of ordering for her. Avoid forcing her to taste a particular dish you assume she will like.
Do not wear sloppy clothes.
Don’t go on your date wearing your old pair of tack pants and vest. Wearing good clothes is important. Put on some good smelling stuff. Make sure to brush your teeth and do your hair. Put on some nice shoes. Dress to impress.
Do not complain about the food price in the menu
It looks very cheap when you discuss or complain about the food prices in the menu. If you cannot afford it is wiser not to invite your date to an expensive eatery. Go to your local cafe instead.
