Dating Advice for Guys: How to Win the Girl of Your Dreams

Dating, for me, is a fun activity. You get to meet new people, you get to interact with new faces, and sometimes, when you’ve been struck with Cupid’s love arrow, you could meet that perfect girl you’ve always dreamed of. However, if you’re one of those who are having a hard time with kicking it off with a fine lady, you might need some serious dating advice—and fret no more, bro, I hear you. Below is my special set of dating advice for guys and fortunately, I’ve had a lot of positive experiences with it.

Confidence. This little word gets thrown around a lot, and unless you have enough confidence in yourself, you’ll never get a girl. Everything starts with confidence—confidence in the way you speak, the way you dress, and even in the way you walk. Believe in yourself and your date will believe in you.

First impressions last. It’s true that first impressions last— there are cases when it could even last a lifetime. To make sure that the girl will join you on the next date, or would show interest in you, then impress your date on the first meet.

How do you do this? A little display of good manners can help, as well as gentlemanliness. Pay attention to things like your poise and attitude. As you walk, you should have poise. When she is ready to get out of the car, offer to open the door for her. When there are certain areas that might seem too difficult for her to walk on, offer your hand. These little things can say a lot regarding your personality so be as polite as you possibly can and stick with these small signs of chivalry as you go on in your relationship later on.

Stick to the present. Most men forget that a new date is a new date. If the face of your ex keeps flashing in your mind each time you see this new girl, try to block them out as quickly as possible. Sometimes, it could only destroy your mood during the date. Also, do not mention any past relationships to a girl you’ve only started to get attracted to. It can be a huge turn-off, and an indication that you, yourself, are not ready at all for this new relationship. If you are asked about your previous relationships, keep the answers short and simple, like, “Oh, there were some differences we couldn’t handle together.” Try not to ask a girl about their previous relationships too, if you can help it, however, if she insists and wants to know every detail, try to share a few of what you think is best to tell, but assure her afterwards that you are ready for a new relationship.

An important aspect of this set of dating advice for guys is honesty— be honest. Some people think that honesty can be boring, but no—as long as you are honest with your feelings and conversation, you can keep the girl interested in you.

Flirt, flirt, flirt. Flirting is not bad—no, not at all. In fact, a lot of things begin with flirting and one of which is a good relationship as well as a good start. Flaunt your killer smile and your tantalizing eye-to-eye contact. Try to break the touch barrier slowly too, but don’t go too fast, or she’ll think you’re desperate.

Lastly, don’t be obsessive. A little obsession is okay, but a lot of it can tell the girl that your obsession could lead to possessiveness. Girls don’t want to have a stalker for a boyfriend, or an obsessive-compulsive freak at that. It is important to be patient in everything—if you send her a message and she doesn’t reply right away, she’s probably busy, or maybe there are things she has to think about before answering your question.

There you have it—my very own dating advice for guys. The world is full of women who are searching for their special man. If you’re looking for your special woman too, I say you go out there and start dating!
