Dating Rules That Men Should Follow, But Often Forget

You believe you have found your ideal woman on an online dating site and you have arranged a date.  You have a lot in common with her and you are really excited.  But you are nervous because it is ages since you have been on a date with someone.

Do not worry.  Here is some dating advice which should raise your chances of success.

It may seem obvious, but sometimes these things get overlooked.  Take a shower beforehand so you smell good.  Dress in some nice, clean and ironed clothes and wear some smart shoes.  Choose a contemporary but casual outfit, something you feel comfortable in, but still look like you have made an effort.  A shave and a trip to the barber will also help make a good impression.  Make sure your fingernails and teeth are clean.

Prepare in your mind topics of conversation you think she may enjoy.  Avoid topics that are too controversial, or sports, unless she shares your passion for football, for example.  Do not talk too much about your job, unless she seems truly interested.  A date is for getting to know each other and there has to be two-way traffic when it comes to the conversation.

Do not expect anything physical on a first date.  Women find patient, non-pushy men more attractive.  Do not use coarse language.  Speak respectfully and be polite to your date at all times.

Following these basic rules could mean the difference between getting a second date and getting the cold shoulder.
