Dating Expert 3 Winning First Date Tips for Guys

A number of young men and guys who do not go on a lot of dates on frequent basis ask me as a dating expert for first date success tips and advice.  That way once they have finagled a first date with a wonderful woman and great gal, they are empowered to make the most of their date.  Look, you took the risk of approaching her, right?  You asked her out on a date, yes?  Well, now what?  What are a few things you can say and do to make your first date a success and win the opportunity to ask her onto a second date?  What are the first date tips you are looking for?

First Date Tip #1: Look Out for Her Safety

When you two have met via an online dating site, to keep both of your safety in mind, especially her physical safety, do suggest to meet in a public location.  When you ask her out on the first meeting date, aim to meet near her so she feels safe.  When you suggest meeting near her, she feels safe and cared for, winning you masculinity points with her.

First Date Tip #2: Have a Plan and Be Flexible

Women and girls really do like a man to have a plan for the date when he asks her out.  After she has said yes to meeting you for the first date, you can then ask what kind of food she likes:  Chinese, Italian, or Thai.  While she wants you to have a plan, yes, modern women do like to have input and to be considered.  This displays your flexibility and ability to include and consider others.  Flexibility and consideration are wonderful relationship success skills.  Then you can research online where you then suggest you two meet.

First Date Tip #3: Be Interested without Being Too Aggressive

When you two do meet, be interested and attentive to her and her interests.  First dates are a dialogue.  Certainly, you do want to tell her about what you want.  When you tell a girl about what you want, your interest, and what you do, you create a picture of what you two would share while dating.  However, do ask her questions, too.  After you make statements about some of your hobbies, ask her if she enjoys some of those activities, too.  Then listen.  Additionally, ask her inquiring questions about her interests.  Think of your conversation as being a gentle tennis game rally of lobbing the ball back and forth.  As you ask her questions, you want to avoid being super aggressive.  It’s conversation, not a deposition.

By looking out for her safety, having a flexible plan, and being interested in her you demonstrate what a great guy you are.  As you do that, you can smoothly ask her out on a second date and expect her “Yes,” response.

Happy Dating and Relationships,
