What are those things that really make you tick, what makes just dump a guy at the step. If you ladies could help me so I don't make these mistakes that would be great,
Thanks, Christian

Take her on a date to do something that only you want to do.
The idea of a date is for her to have fun, and you to have fun with her. If she doesn't have fun or enjoy the date then their won't be a second. So the date is really for her, not for you and if you start it with that attitude then you can't go wrong, even if you only go to a park and play on the swings (from an episode of Bones on Fox, it worked because it was something she wanted to do).

Don't talk about your ex on a first date, there's plenty of time to share your past if you continue dating.
Don't be rude to the waitress if you go to a restaurant, but don't flirt w/her either!
Don't answer your cell phone or send text messages.
Offer to pay, even if she wants to split it, you'll get points for offering.
Ask her questions that require more then a yes or no answer and really listen when she answers.
Answer her questions w/more then a yes or no.
Don't talk about how much money you make, how awesome your car is or how much you can bench press.
When you pick her up, get out of the car and go to the door, when you drop her off do the same.
Be a gentleman

Check out other women.
Be annoying.
Talk to much.
Say shallow things.
Forget your wallet.
Something that makes me really impressed in a man is when they do things such as hold doors and pull out chairs. This makes me feel like I'm worth a few extra moments of somebody's time. It's the simplest thing to do with the highest results. You should always open doors for ladies but only on a date should you open car doors and pull out chairs.

try to show interest in what she is saying no matter how lame. Ask some ?s but not to many because then she will think that you are interrogating her. Find out what you 2 have in common, build on that. NEVER order her food for her, no matter what!!! She may say it doesn't matter, but it does. We want to see how much you are willing to spend on one meal. Try opening the door(car, or other) for her. Some of us aren't use to this and it is a Major point builder. And most of all do everything you can to just be YOURSELF. Don't play the girl, she will catch on.

Bring her somewhere nice and show that you have manners. Complement her and treat her with respect. In conversation, ask her questions about her and don't focus the conversation to be all about you. ...I hate someone who talks all about themselves....after the conversation, I feel that person didn't care about me at all. Try to be humble and do not be cocky or arrogant...that's the worst!! Try not to go out of your way to impress her...if you make a lot of money or are from a lot of money, don't say anything about that....you will sound like you are trying to impress her with your wealth. Impress her by being nice and personable and show interest in her. Hopefully, she will ask questions about you too and you can both relate to similar experiences or similar interests. Good luck!

The worst things you can do is to be pretentious or being to warm and fuzzy, a woman wants to feel secure with the man they are dating. Being overly "gentle" can make a woman feel like you have no back bone. Although, my fiance` got me by following me around like a lost puppy but this was after our 5th date.
Good luck Christian I hope you enjoy your dating experience, the best advice I can give you is be confident!
Blessed Be!

I once went on a first date to a park where there was a lot of walking required to get to a waterfall. My date wanted to go to the toilet and he just went off the track a bit and relieved himself in sight of everyone. I was so overcome with embarassment I didn't go out again with him.

-when chews you can hear like a noise not like a chewing noise but like a slurpy noise idk how to explain
-Swears
-If he chews gum smacks his gum
-If he put's gum or something like that in his mouth in front of you and doesn't offer you any
-Corny Jokes
-Talks to much about himself or doesn't say enough about himself He has to get to know you and ALSO talk about himself as well just not the whole time lol

I just googled, 'things not to say on a date' and got hundreds of answers so you can try that ........but....also remember...
Do what you feel is right, you'll have a gut instinct always go with that, and if she doesn't like you then it's not meant to be; the right girl will love you for who you are. x
