* How to Impress Your Date *
Here's how to impress a date without looking overzealous, pompous, or awkward. Anyone can do it, provided you have confidence in yourself.
Steps
Remember who you are, and remember who you are trying to impress. Do not try to be someone else, because your fraudulence will shine through.
Hold their attention with funny anecdotes and stories, but no corny jokes. It may lead to an awkward moment. Laughing often breaks the ice, and everyone loves someone with a sense of humor. Most people love funny stories, but nothing too dirty, especially on a first date.
Dress and look intelligent. Unless you are taking them to the beach, you probably should not be wearing flip-flops or shorts on a first date. No matter what you do for a living, let them know that you enjoy what you do and take pride in it. Deli clerk, artist, doctor, lawyer, take pride in it. Don't be too boastful - people usually find that to be rude and offensive.
Do not complain about everything - family, friends, work, boss, car, weather, taxes, gasoline prices. Instead, try to smile and let them know that you are confident in yourself.
Save roses and chocolates for Valentine's day (if you are still around then). If you want to get them something, get something small and thoughtful like a candle or a picture frame (not with your picture in it). You want him or her to know that you were thinking about them while you were apart and that you remember what they like. Just don't go overboard.
Hold the door for them, help them take on and off their coat, pull out chairs, do not interrupt them, do not talk on the cellphone on a date, and do not look at other people in sexual way. Use some common sense.
Ask them about themself without being too nosey, and make them feel good about their career, hobbies, interests, and opinions, and listen attentively. People generally hate it when they get asked the same question twice because it tells them that you were not listening the first time.
Do not pry into personal matters, and do not tell them about private matters in your life.
Compliment them. Tell them they looks lovely, smells good, is intelligent, and has a beautiful house - anything that will make them smile. It counts.
Talk about your interests and be relatively open with them. Talk about their interests as well, and try to focus on mutual interests, since both of you will be able to contribute. Who knows? They may like the things you like and know a lot more about it than you thought they would. What about history, cars, music, movies, etc.? Your date may very well share some of your interests, and it could make for a great conversation and allow you both to find some common ground.
Tips
If you really want to impress your date, try not to take them to a bar on a first date. They might not feel 100% comfortable with it, and may not hold alcohol very well. You may have the same problem. Try a coffee shop; it affords you both a chance to talk and get to know each other a little better. Dinner could be nice, but probably better for a second or third date. Movies are nice, too, but allow for little conversation time. Save the movie for a second or third date as well, and that way during the movie you can let them lean against you or get closer, without feeling uncomfortable about it.
For a first kiss, do not try to swallow their face. Leave a lasting positive impression by some eye contact, perhaps a little bit of tasteful and gentle touching.
Do not speed when driving with your date. They will not be impressed. People are more comfortable when they are not expecting to fly through your windshield.
Do not reach for very sexual parts of your date's body immediately. If you want to make some relatively early physical contacts, reach for their hand, hair, perhaps the neck but within reason, or back.
Try to adjust the temperature in your car or house to accomodate your date. Do not suffer but do not be inconsiderate, either. It is best for your date to be comfortable when they are in your environment.
If your date has any pets, you don't have to pick them up or play with them right away, but don't reject the animal immediately. However, be honest with them if you are allergic. Better safe than sorry.
It is generally a good idea to get to know your date's parents a bit if possible and try to make a decent impression.
Important - if you say you are going to call your date, call them. In addition, try not to be late to dates.
Warnings
A major cause for rejection is talking too much about past relationships.
Do not get drunk or lose control of yourself.
Do not get into a heated discussion over religion, politics, or money. This is not the time for it. Surely it is acceptable to let them know some of your beliefs and opinions at some point, but not right away.
Try not to focus on their flaws. There is a reason you asked your date out in the first place. Focus on their good qualities.
Things You'll Need
If this is a winter night first date, bring a small blanket in the car so your date doesn't freeze to death. It will show that you are being considerate and thoughtful.
Rose or box of chocolates.
Breath mints. Especially if you opted for Italian or Mexican dinner - tasty garlic and onions can be offensive on your breath.
Perhaps a CD for the car ride. Probably not Metallica on volume #20, but maybe some Sinatra in the background. A little "Fly Me To The Moon" or "Luck Be A Lady" could add a nice touch to the conversation or the moment. Plus, as corny as it may sound, there are few more romantic than Sinatra...and that's the truth.

Movies are the stand-by after you already know everything about each other. There's no real interaction in a movie. You're just sitting there engrossed in the film, existing in the same space. Take her to the park, on a walk, even to dinner. Go feed ducks, play frisbee, but be together doing something that causes you to interact. And then if there's no chemistry and you can't get out of it, take her to a movie and then take her home.
