Don’t hit on your waitress or another woman. The only thing worse than starring at your dates breasts is getting caught starring at the waitress’. On a first date you should keep your eyes on your date’s eyes.
Preparation for a first date on a woman’s behalf begins the moment she accepts. From that point on, she is deciding what to wear, how to style her hair and a million other things that men do not notice.
Chances are, she has tried on a million outfits with her best friends just to get the ensemble that you see before you. While no one expects you to go through such lengths, do make an effort to look nice. Choose a nice button down or polo shirt with a pair of dresser jeans or khakis and tuck your shirt in. The smallest attention to detail can polish your look.
Be on time and then after that ignore time. Glancing at your watch every 5 minutes tells your date you aren’t enjoying yourself and are waiting to get out of there.
Ignore your cell. Don’t be texting or receiving phone calls through out your date, if at all possible keep it on silence.
Don’t show up drunk and don’t be downing alcohol all night. Have a glass of wine or a beer with dinner, but don’t overdo it.
As you can see there are many dumb things that you can do on a date. The most important things are what smart things you can do on a date. Namely, this includes being yourself, having fun, and respectfully enjoying yourself.
