20 Dating Dos and Don'ts

1. It's better suggesting going for a drink on your first date. There nothing worse than a boring 5 course meal.

2. Phone her up on a Monday evening arranging a date for the following night. (Remember weekends are off limits for first dates)

3. Leave her with both your work(or cell) and home numbers. No home number and she might think your married.

4. If you have any special plans and you want to keep them a secret at least give her a clue on what to wear. Believe me she'll appreciate it, you don't want a fuming under/overdressed women on you case.

5. Oh yes, she'll definitely notice if the date location is conveniently close to your crib so play nice...

6. Never assume that just because she's a total hotty, she knows how great she looks - she needs to hear it from you (and please no cheesy lines be original)

7. Ask her whether she's hot/cold if she is try and fix it if possible, you want her to feel comfortable throughout your date.

8. Guys judge women by whether they could imagine having sex with them, women on the other hand judge us men by whether they could picture kissing us. Fresh breathe, clean teeth and smooth lips will score you some points.

9. Be original when asking questions, you don't want to ask the same questions she got bored by on her previous date otherwise this will surely be your first and only date.

10. Insist on ordering dessert, she secretly loves it but wont admit it - something to share is extra sexy.

11. Make sure your polite to the waiting staff showing off your good manners and tip accordingly, she'll be watching.

12. Watch for the touch, if its your arm she's interested, if it's the leg she wants you tonight.

13. When in doubt, hold her hand.

14. Small protective gestures like offering your arm when stepping from a curb and waiting an extra 90 seconds to make sure she safely makes it into her flat will go a long way and show her you're a true gentlemen.

15. Take note of her eye color she expects you to.

16. Don't make her lose interest or wonder if you have, show her you have momentum. Momentum = date a week plus a few phone calls in between.

17. Don't play the hookup card before date three, so keep her away from your apartment for now.

18. Date four needs to be a Friday or Saturday night. Otherwise, you'll have her thinking who else is he seeing.

19. If something happens that could be banned on primetime-tv, give her a call the next morning, she'll appreciate it.

20. Only say "I'll call you" if you are. Otherwise say nothing at all.
