4 Tips on Creating a Memorable Night For Your Date

Regardless of whether you are a male or a female, there are a few surefire methods to convince your date that he or she has made the right decision to go out with you.

These examples have been proven time and time again not just to be effective, but also to create that instant attraction.

1) Self-Confidence

I'm sure you've heard the phrase "confidence wins" over and over again. While being cocky or snooty is so uncool, remaining an aura of self assurance is a huge turn on for potential mates. There is absolutely nothing wrong in letting your potential date know what you excel in, your expertise and achievements if any, as well as what kind of a relationship you can offer your future partner. All these things are acceptable topics of conversation, but of course you need some finesse in bringing such points on the table. In some instances, it takes talent to maneuver yourself into the position. A friendly tip, it is not cool to interrupt your date in midsentence while he or she is talking about something entirely different, to start babbling about your expertise and achievements. Let the moment decide.

2) Be one with your date

When you commit to a date you made the decision to spend some time to get to know that person. Regardless of how long it takes, always keep your focus on your date and never lose track of the conversation. The worst thing you can do on a date is to let your eyes wander while your date explains something important about himself or herself. This is your window of opportunity to get to know the person and introduce yourself at the same time. While it's true that you may not be interested in every topic your date might bring up, remember that he or she is still revealing something to you that you might need to file away for later retrieval. Yes, people can be boring at times; but please accept our sincere apology, not everyone is as great a narrator as you are, Socrates.

3) Listen more and talk less

Some people think that getting into conversations require answering and rebutting every single time the other person hits that period at the end of the sentence. Or worse, some think that they owe it to themselves to reveal as much information about themselves as possible in one sitting. But if you truly want your date to know how interested you are in getting to know him or her, listen more and ask questions, rather than talk about yourself the whole night. And while you listen, do it with the intent to understand and not to rebut.

4) Give kind words, they're free

While it's wrong to outright lie to someone, saying some simple, kind comments to your date such as "I like your jacket, it matches your shirt nicely," or "Your bracelet complements your beautiful eyes," can go a long way towards the end of the night. By saying things like these, you are letting your date know that you acknowledge his or her effort to look attractive in your eyes. Of course there are those rare events when a date shows up looking like a hurricane victim, but for the most part, majority of daters prepare to go out with the intention to present their best look. Say something nice.... like "check please."

Setting a good impression on your first date is never an easy thing, but it doesn't have to be that difficult either. Simply being yourself is the best way to go. Do not pretend to be someone you're not, as time will always expose who you are. It's much easier to be yourself than someone else. In fact, you don't have to try to do anything out of the ordinary. If your date doesn't appreciate who you are, just remember that someone else out there is dying to meet someone like you.
