Nine Dating Rules For Men

Nine Dating Rules For Men 1

Dating is that period when your interest in a lady is fueled by your desire to get to know her better. Whether you want to keep her for the moment or for a lifetime, then you must keep in mind these dating rules I have discussed in this article.

Before deciding to get into the game of dating, there are certain things you need to take care of before even beginning. Many men go into the dating field with undefined expectations, and sooner or later, they return with tales of woe regarding the lady in question. So, before embarking on the blame game, here are nine dating rules you must follow for a successful dating experience.

  1. Decide what you want

Before going on a date with a lady, you must settle it in your mind what your intentions are. Some men date just to have sexual partners without commitment. Others date for a marriage companion. Some others even date women just for the fun of it. Whatever your reasons for dating, define it clearly.

2. Pay close attention 

If you are dating a lady with the intention to marry her, then you must be very observant. Since your intention is to make her your wife. You need to pay close attention both to the things she says together with her actions and inactions. Study her body language for those things that you hold dear to see if she feels the same about them. Getting this right from the start will save you a lifetime of pain.

3. Be confident

It is impossible not to feel nervous about a lady you are having a date with for the first time. However, you can conceal your nervousness by making eye contact and asking questions that are open-ended so as to get to know her better.

4. Decide who will pay the bills

Most times, a man is supposed to foot the bill on a first date. If there is going to be a change in this, it is better you have a discussion about it. Either you will foot the bill or both of you split it.

5. Listen more 

If you are dating a lady for keeps, you should be genuinely interested in listening more while she is talking. Avoid the temptation to interrupt her as this may want  to make her hold off telling you something about herself.

6. Be truthful about your need

Do not go on a date on pretense. Let the lady know your expectations and your desires so that there is no room for confusion in the long run. Always bare your mind on what you want in a lady without mincing words. The date will naturally lead to another if you both find an interest in each other.

7. Don’t bore her with irrelevant conversations 

Part of achieving a successful date is to be open and to be yourself. Get to know what she is interested in and tailor your questions in that area. However, don’t make her feel that the date is more of an interrogation than a heart to heart conversation.

8. Don’t put all your hopes in a basket

Remember that it is just a date, and not all dates translate into marital union. Don’t be desperate in your attitude about holding on to her even if it is obvious that she doesn’t find you interesting. Learn to be open-minded without being clingy.

 9. Decide on the date venue 

The best dating venue is a place that you are comfortable in and the one that is pocket friendly. Don’t embarrass yourself by taking the lady to say, an eatery or a bar that is beyond your means. Always work in line with your budget.


Conclusion 

Always remember that dating is not the final destination. It is just the determining stage whether the meeting will evolve into a much more lasting one. So, if there is a lady you are thinking of taking out on a date, have these nine rules shared above as your guide.
