Guys, Avoid These 3 Major Mistakes and Have a Great Dating Experience

July 23rd, 2009, Posted by Eddy Ankrett

Dating should always be about having great fun. Sometimes dates work out and go on to become great relationships. At other times they don’t, but that should be because of the lack of compatibility and not because you made a major mistake. It’s a tough world and a confusing one too. The need to get it right straight off can be stressful for most guys. So, what’s the answer?

One answer is to be aware of what doesn’t work and avoid doing it. Thousands of dating experiences from all over the world has shown that there are certain things that work most of the time and other things that nearly always fail. There are 3 major mistakes that really stand out and scream, “Don’t do this!” So guys, avoid these 3 major mistakes and you can start having a great dating experience.

1. Don’t try to buy her affection. Guys make this mistake all the time. They somehow think that they have to buy a girl gifts every time they see her. Yes, buy a gift occasionally, but only when there’s a good reason. Don’t go out on a first date with an expensive gift for a girl you have never met before. That does not make sense.

If you feel that you must bring a gift on a first date, make it something simple like a single stem of a red rose. It doesn’t cost much, but it says a lot. It also says that you are not the kind of guy who splashes out all the time in an effort to win favours, simply because you don’t have the confidence not to. Be generous by all means, but don’t spend unnecessarily.

2. Don’t be her therapist. If you find yourself having to listen to a list of her problems as long as your arm, she’s just looking for a sympathetic ear and someone to comfort her. She is not looking for a long-term relationship, or even a short-term one for that matter. Listen to some of her problems by all means – it would be rude not to have some give and take – but if she mentions an ex, that’s the time to stop. You don’t want to be seen as just a friend; you want to be seen as an attractive lover, and that’s not a category that a therapist easily fits in to.

3. Don’t be too submissive. Girls want someone who is totally in control. That’s not the same as a control freak however. They don’t want you to take over completely; they just want a guy who knows how to control the situation. You can and should concede occasionally too. Let her have her way in certain things, but always let it be because you want it to be the case, and not because you are scared of losing her if you don’t. Girls like to be their own person, and that’s how it should be, but they also want the guy in their lives to be the strong one. Wimps don’t usually succeed well with girls.

Dating should always be great fun for both of you. By avoiding these common mistakes you can make your dating experience – and her’s too – a much better one all round. Now, go out and have fun!
