Contrary to popular opinion, women tend to get easily impressed by men. But – and here’s something men know -- they get put off pretty quickly too, and then it’s difficult to get them interested again. So when taking a woman out, you need to keep the female psyche in mind in order to make your evening a success. Here’s the low down on five dating habits that women dislike:
1. Being asked to pay her share
Yes, this is the era of women’s lib and equality. So why shouldn’t they be asked to pay their share? Most women do offer to pay up and when they do, let them pay for sure. But if not, don’t ask them to pay up; that’s rude and shows lack of manners. In any case, for the first few dates, it’s best to take your woman out to places you can afford so that you aren’t bothered about the moolah issue. Most smart women might let you pay but make it up to you the next time around by footing the entire bill herself. So just relax and don’t cross the boundaries.
2. Waiting for her date to arrive
Women hate waiting. They consider making their dates wait their right, but if they’re the ones who have to wait, they’d rather drop the date entirely. A guy who is late makes them feel that they are low on his priority list. It also shows his lack of sincerity toward the girl and disrespect for her time. So guys, the least you can do is be there on time and wait for the madam to arrive.
3. Listening to your life’s mundane details
A number of guys go on and on about themselves in order to impress the belle. They talk about where they were born, how many times they topped in school, how many farms their parents own, how smart they were in college and how many women followed them around. The true-blue bragger won’t stop at this. He goes on to explain how he got every job he walked in for, what colors he likes, what his philosophy in life is and on and on.... This blowing of your own trumpet would irritate any smart, self-respecting girl. So take it easy, buddy. Take a deep breath, push back your chair and create space for a conversation, not a monologue. Make this date about getting to know each other instead of a one-sided ego-flattering session.
4. The roving eye syndrome
Let’s face it, some men just can’t help it. They just have to look at every woman that passes by or is sitting around them. And let’s face this too, women just love attention. They hate men who are with them but want to look at others. The roving eye syndrome is something no woman tolerates on a date. Even if the most gorgeous head-turner passes by, a woman expects her date to keep staring into her eyes. The bottom line is simple -- control the reflex movement of your neck for a few hours if you want the evening to be a success.
5. Cry babies
Women come out on a date with you to have fun. But some guys think the emotional route works faster and might decide to turn on the water works. Here’s the truth revealed -- women do not like cry babies. You may have been ditched ten times and you make think that this makes for ten interesting stories, but your date may not think so. Instead, your date may think that if you were ditched so often, you must not be worth keeping. So don’t try to take short cuts. At least on the first date, remember to keep away all sob stories about your poor family, tough career, and difficult life. They have enough hardships of their own to handle so don’t over-burden them with more. Make it a truly entertaining evening and let your hair down.
Avoid these habits like the plague and you will see the magic unfold. Happy wooing!
