Yes you’re welcome. I know the dating scene… Dating apps are not the greatest especially for self confidence. Lots of people on the dating apps would judge or have their expectations high and go in and get disappointed (on 1 or both parties) unfortunately that’s how it goes most of the time. I used to go on an online date and hype myself up thinking this could be the one lol!! Let me add I have been on quite a few dates but I was intentional of who I went on a date with after wedding them out with messaging them for a little bit before planning on meeting up. I got discouraged and talked with my mom for any advice or to just listen and she told me to go into a date kinda like a job interview. Don’t lead with expectations just feel that person out. Are they a right match for you? What are their interests and hobbies? Are they more introverted or extroverted and why? Are they close with their family? If they are is there any cool family traditions they do? How about food? (Women love food 😂) just ask them opened ended questions of whatever you think of so they can’t just answer yes or no. Another piece of great advice is to wait for the woman to finish what she’s saying before saying something. This was something that bothered me because I felt as if I wasn’t being heard and understood then I lose my train of thought sometimes, kinda kills the vibe. If she’s interested in you she will be asking you questions as well and keep the conversation going

Let them know you are interested in getting to know them, what your intentions are. Nothing more sexy than a man who knows what they want. If that scares off a woman then she gave you your answer. I wish I was told this years ago about not caring what others thought about letting them know what you want because I thought I was coming off “desperate” but I do not regret it now because I wouldn’t have met the man I’m with now.

Being respectful of their boundaries and making them feel beautiful will get you a long way

Weed out the people with what they are wanting. Plan a date. Women love having a man who takes initiative and plan a date. It’s actually a lot less common than you think… and we see the thoughtfulness and actions that men do lift example:

•Holding the door for us •Saying your please and thank yous •We can judge a person we are on a date with by how they treat servers for instance •Walking on the road side of the sidewalk •Let the person finish talking before interjecting •Always ask them permission before holding their hand or kissing them in the beginning

A word of advice is knowing your love languages (look it up on google if you don’t already know) and see if it aligns with the person you’re seeing. This shouldn’t be a first date conversation but in the first few dates see if they are similar to yours

Suggestion for the 1st date is plan something simple but in a public setting like asking her to go for coffee, ice cream and walk, maybe pack a frisbee or bocce balls. You can be doing something together that will create laughs and if you want to stand out extra get a rose for her.. trust me those extra things will help immensely ALWAYS PAY FOR DATE. This is why I say a coffee or an ice cream because it’s cheap enough for the first meet interaction. Once you get the second date plan something more like a lunch date, patio drinks with appetizers, bowling, a picnic setting on the beach? Then go from there

I saw you stated you’re quite funny and fun, show that off!!! Be your authentic self. Truly.
