Dating Do's and Dont's for Blokes
I actually feel sorry for you blokes sometimes as us ladies can be quite unique characters and occasionally can give you a hard time.
When it comes to dating, everyone is different and it takes time to work out what you're doing right and wrong by your date. Unfortunately some ladies have a one date chance rule and you're through.
So, here are a couple of Do's and Don'ts for your lads when it comes to dating. Fingers crossed if you follow these, you'll get to that second date!
DATING DO'S
- If you meet someone and get there number don't be afraid to text or call them the next day. Some people say it's too keen but no need to play that game. If you really like them, flick them a text to say it was nice to meet them. However when you're organising to meet up with them for a date, give them a call - saves you money in texting and then you can have a good chat before the date
- Choose somewhere appropriate for the first date that you both will enjoy. So trips to the footy with the boys would not be appropriate whereas as nice dinner and perhaps some drinks afterwards would be. Or show her you're fun and adventuous side and take her bowling or sumo wrestling - just make sure she is appropriately dressed!
- Always arrive on time for your date and don't be talking on your phone when she arrives - it's plain rude even if you are filling in time because you're nervous. Even better - maybe suggest picking your date up?
- Be yourself! There is nothing worse than pretending to be someone you're not. You'll be found out eventually and then it all ends in tears
- It's actually really refreshing to see some men these days using common courtsey when it comes to women like opening doors, pulling her chair out for her, paying for dinner. Try it and who knows she may be impressed!!!
- Always return her calls or messages. It is so rude if you don't and if for some reason you're not interested in seeing her again, be honest and tell her the truth
DATING DONT'S
- Don't talk about yourself all night! There is nothing worse then hearing someone brag about themselves all night. Ask her questions as well
- Turn your mobile off. Enough said
- Don't expect sex on the first date. Some girls just don't do it. Isn't nice to leave something to future dates?
- Don't do anything that's too cliche romantic. If you're willing to keep up those gestures up throughout your entire romance - great but usually guys romantic streaks come out when they're trying to impress and that's it. So no sunsets on the beach, no chessy lines, etc
- Your first few dates should be about getting to know each other. Introducing her to your friends on the second date is out of the question. Not only does it make her feel like your handbag but she feels like she is being judged. This goes for introducing her to your family - leave it for a while until you're really sure the relationship is going somewhere
- Don't ever bag out her friends or family. These are the most important people in her life and criticising them is in poor taste
There are so many do's and don'ts but you'l find them out as you date more and more. Most importantly have fun and go get em' tiger!
