Absolutely!
Drinks: Show up 5 minutes early to greet your date when she arrives.
Dinner: Show up 5-10 minutes early to ensure the hostess has your dinner reservation and to check in. You want to arrive before your date, not after.
Women get uncomfortable sitting at a table (or at the bar), and waiting for you.
It’s a nice gesture to offer to pick up your date.
Most women will say “no” for a first date and will prefer to meet you at the restaurant. (It’s a safety thing!) However, you should always offer. (It gives you brownie points!)
For a second date, a woman will likely say “yes” to having you pick her up for the date. Even if it is out of your way, you should offer to pick her up.
You should always pay.
Even if the woman offers, you need to pay. It’s a date!
Say, “I’d love to treat you.” It’s the polite and gentlemanly thing to do. If you asked her out on a date you need to pay. Women always want the man to pay, even if they offer to split the check or pay for themselves.
Plan on 2-3 drinks on a first date. More than that and you risk that you (and your date!) will get drunk.
If you want a hook-up only then you can get drunk.
If you want a relationship you need to limit your drinks on a first date.
Yes.
Always offer to walk a woman to her car (or ensure she gets into the Uber) after a date.
You want to make a woman feel safe. You should make sure she gets home safely, even if she is independent and capable of taking care of herself.
No. Flowers on a first date is a bit of an overkill. However, flowers on a third date will charm a woman. We love flowers!
A first date should last about 2 hours. You want to spend enough time to get to know each other, but not too much. Save some details and information for a second date!
You should text a woman that night to let her know that you enjoyed the date. You should ask her on a second date DURING the first date or within 2 days of the first date.
Women want to feel desired. If you make her wait too long, she will think that you are not into her and move on to the next guy that makes her feel sexy and desired.
