We’ve all been there: painfully awkward dates that begin with long silences over dinner and end with a handshake at the door. How do we get there? Sometimes, men and women just don’t know how to act around each other. We naturally have vastly different opinions on what we expect in a date. So here you have it: a woman’s perspective on dating tips for men.

First of all, give your date plenty of notice. Asking a girl at 5:00 p.m. to have dinner with you at 7:00 p.m. just says to her: “I have nothing better to do tonight, want to fill in my otherwise empty evening?” That is just insulting. While on your date, focus conversation on her interests. Find out what she like to do and be ready to have an intelligent, informed discussion. Don’t spend the whole evening talking about yourself, and your accomplishments. Be on your best behavior. Women love a gentleman. Open her doors, pull out her chair, pay for dinner, walk her to the door. I guarantee, these small acts will gain you big points in her mind. Finally, when it comes to the end of the evening, don’t make your date feel like she owes you anything. Don’t stand at the door awkwardly waiting for something to happen. If she doesn’t seem interested in a goodnight kiss, tell her you had a great time, and will talk to her soon. And then, you have to actually call her. Don’t leave her waiting longer than two or three days. Above all, treat your woman well, and she will notice and appreciate it. I hope these dating tips for men, by a woman, help you make your next date more successful!
