We are suckers for old romance. We think the best of
relationships were in the times of our forefathers; times
where civility was the order of the day. To catch the
attention of a man those days, you had to be a proper lady
(Which some girls aren’t toady). Taking tips from
historical book, movies and magazines, We picked some
useful tips ladies can imbibe while going on dates with
their partners or someone they just met, exactly how our
mothers did it then.
1. Be ready when he arrives, greet him with a smile: A
woman likes to take a lot of time when getting ready for a
date, an event or even stepping out of the house to buy
something from a local retailer. No woman likes to be
caught looking scruffy, so you love to look good
wherever you go. You spend time in the bathroom, in front
of the mirror applying the right make-up, choosing the
right outfit and so on. So, if you have a date with your man,
start getting dressed on time. If you know your date is by
7, you can start getting ready two or even three hours
ahead of time. When he gets to your place and he sees you
all dressed up, he will know you have respect for time.
Men love ladies that don’t keep them waiting; they are less
patient. Greet him with your brightest smile; it makes him
feel welcomed and it means you are excited to spend the
evening with him.
2. Sharpen your eating etiquette: Do not order meals you
are not familiar with. Eat what you know and don’t eat
your food like you’ve been waiting on that opportunity to
eat. Take your food one at a time, do not gobble your food
(before you choke). Don’t eat in and still buy the whole
restaurant home. You will look like a cheap, hungry girl.
Be a lady!
3. Don’t talk to other men: For crying out loud, don’t
ignore your date. Don’t leave him and talk to other men.
Men don’t show it often but they get jealous too. Make him
feel like he didn’t waste his time, energy and money by
taking you out. Focus all your attention on him. Don’t
attract unnecessary attention to yourself. Always
“exhume” class.
4. Don’t make-up where he can see you: I know some
nights can be really hot and your make up will need to re-
touched and all of that but never do it in front of him. There
are rest rooms you can use for that. He will only see as
you vain. Men are looking for more than just beauties
these days, don’t come off as too conscious of your looks.
Never talk about how much you spend on your clothes,
accessories, hair and all those female stuffs. Definitely not
cool.
5. Don’t get too emotional: Ladies are emotional and
sometimes we get too emotional. Try not to shed tears in
front of your date especially if it is the first night out. If you
guys are getting on the border of emotional stuffs, try and
change the topic to something cheery. Crying in front of
him will just make things very awkward.
6. Little or no open show of affection: Not all men like to
be touched in public. It’s not like they don’t love you, they
don’t just like it. Even if he does, keep it on a low. Don’t
go touching him all over his body like you have a problem
keeping your hands with you. Some stuffs are meant to be
done in private, keep them private. The public really don’t
really want to know how you guys get cozy.
7. Don’t drink too much: This is a very common “don’t”
while on a date. Do not drink more than you can hold.
Even if you can hold alcohol well, drink little. You don’t
want to embarrass yourself by doing nasty stuffs like
taking a piss in the middle of the restaurant or going
naked. Yeah, you can’t remember most of what you’ll do
while drunk, I know. Wait till you see your video on the
internet.
8. Be a listener: It is easy for a woman to go on and on
about the stuffs going on in her life; we are natural
chatters. Take a break from the norm. Ask him intelligent
questions that will get him to talk to you. Even if he is
boring, put up a face that depicts you are enjoy everything
he is saying. Getting him to talk to you shows you care
and you really want to know who he is.
9. Learn to be yourself: Don’t try to form an accent or act
like someone else. Just be yourself. It would help you feel
a lot more comfortable.
