Hey guys. My name is Shallon and I'm here to help you with all the questions you might
-
have about love, lust, romance, and everything in between. For more, visit me on twitter
-
@downtownshallon or be sure to check out my website shallononline.com. Now boys, I know
-
that first dates can be incredibly nerve racking, but think of girls like spiders. They're more
-
afraid of you than you are of them. But still. you can take several key steps to make sure
-
that your first date is awesome. Number one: take some time to dress nice. The worst date
-
I ever went on is when I showed up wearing a super cute dress like this one and the guy
-
was literally in a track suit. Like he'd just come from the gym. And he was slouched down
-
in his chair with his legs open. Sit up in you chair. Sit up straight. A girl is definitely
-
taking her time to look nice. You should do the same. This means doing your hair. Putting
-
on a clean, wrinkle free shirt, I know, what a concept. And a few spritz off cologne. No
-
more than two. Cause girls love the way you smell and not enough boys wear cologne but
-
you can bet that she's gonna have a little bit of perfume on. Always, always open doors.
-
Girls notice your manners way more than they're gonna notice whether or not you have on the
-
coolest shoes. One of the best boyfriends I ever had was also the most polite. He would
-
stand up when I would get up and leave the table. He would open doors. And you know what
-
else he would do boys, he would always pay for the date. I know, the girl's gonna do
-
the polite reach, 'oh, can I give you some money', you say no. This is a trap. You say
-
no. You're taking a woman out. And dating is just like anything else. You have to be
-
able to afford it to do it. This doesn't mean that you have to be super rich to date a girl.
-
There are plenty of things you can do that are low budget, or free. You can have a picnic
-
and go for a walk on the beach. You can just watch a movie at your house. There's a lot
-
of things you can do that don't require a ton of money. But, one thing you do have to
-
have for a first date is a plan. Real men make plans. There's nothing worse than a guy
-
showing up and being like, 'so what do you want to do tonight, where do you wanna go?'.
-
You're a man. make a plan. It doesn't have to be super extravagant and over the top.
-
It can be something as mellow as having a picnic and going on a walk. But if you put
-
a little bit of thought into it, the girl will know that you're actually serious.
