Get Guys to Like You More when You Go on a Date
If you want to be asked out on a date again, you'll have to learn how to be a good date. Make sure you leave the door confident, cool, and ready to go out and have fun!
Steps
- Learn how to Get-Ready-for-a-Date. Dress in a way that you feel comfortable. If you normally wear conservative clothing and think a low-cut shirt will make him want you more(and vice versa), it will probably just make things more awkward because you'll be uncomfortable, which will cause you to act out of character.
- Realize that all guys are different! One might like a lot of enhancing makeup, while another might enjoy you more natural. One might think that your crop top is cute, another might think it makes you look too over the top. A lot of people don't go on blind dates, so you should get a feel for what they like. It is okay to wear a V-Cut shirt if you think he might like it, but be careful to follow the step above as well.
- Be conversational. Make an effort to hold a conversation with him, or else he will feel like it's his responsibility. Don't force conversation, but don't let him keep it up alone. Dripping over his every word is fine, but don't be such a ditz that you can't pick up the topic yourself and move with it.
- Make eye contact. Avoiding the gaze of your date may be cute or flirty in your eyes, but he may see it as discomfort on your part. Staring is a little creepy, but looking into his eyes often is a good thing.
- Learn about the guy's interest and use it as a topic. Guys love it when you pay attention to them. Talk about his classes, any sports he's involved in, his friends, and anything else you can think of.
- Learn how to flirt correctly. This isn't too hard. If you really like the guy, little things like smiles, glances, and touches will come naturally if you overcome shyness.
- Be confident. Guys love confident girls, for a lot of reasons. One is because a girl who is always isn't confident, or just acts that way, gives a lot of mixed signals. A confident girl who speaks up gives guys a good idea about what she wants. Don't mix up confidence with heavy independence. While you should say what you want, be careful that you don't seem too independent. It might turn a guy off if you always want things your way, or if he thinks if you will never really need him.
- Imitate low-maintenance girls. Don't be too demanding on your choice of food or items if the guys is buying for you.
- Do not insult yourself. The first time you look at your reflection and say, "Ugh, my hair will not work today!", he'll see one of those people. The kind that always primp in the mirror, always need to lose just three more pounds, or are always shopping for a cute new top. It will make you seem shallow and not worth it.
- Don't worry about goodnight/bye kisses. Perfectly romantic dates are rare. If you really want to date the guy, kissing will come soon enough.
Tips
- The most important thing to remember is that he likes you enough to agree to go on a date with you, so relax and be yourself! Don't change to impress him. That's not the person he took an interest in.
- If he asks for your mobile number give it to him (if you don't have a mobile, tell him that you will call him).
- Admitting that you're nervous may actually help. If you feel like you're not yourself, just say that you're really nervous because you're so excited. He will feel better because you're so into him, and you'll feel better because he knows why you're not yourself.
- Do not let him pressure you into things you don't want to do.
Warnings
- Eye contact can sometimes be intimidating and confrontational. It is better to talk to the guy side to side! If you are eating across from each other, or front-to-front eye contact is unavoidable, do not avoid his eyes. Look at his eyes and follow manners - don't stare, undress him with your eyes, or giggle too much.
- Corny as it sounds, it is very important to be yourself. If the guy who asked you out saw a cute, natural, freckled girl in jeans and a T-shirt and he picks up a primped, preppy, girl with revealing clothing and a half a pound of makeup, he might back out of it( and vice versa).
