Dating can be a challenge for many of us, especially when we come across the same mistakes time and time again. As someone who has talked to many men about their dating experiences, I have noticed a pattern in the errors they make, and mistakes that ultimately ruin their chances of finding success with beautiful women. Whether you’re a seasoned dater, making a comeback, or starting out, you can always benefit from some dating advice. And Dating Dave is here to help you!

Give her your undivided attention: Gone are the days when impressing women meant talking non-stop about yourself. Beautiful women have heard it all before. But, if you ask her about herself, listen attentively, and show a slight interest, she will start to wonder why you’re not fawning over her. By being different, you become a challenge and beautiful women love challenging men. Why? Because they hardly ever meet a man that’s challenging. Be THAT guy and you’ll be well on your way to dating success.

Ask questions: Date preparation is key. Make a list of questions you can ask her, such as what inspired her to pursue her line of work, where she went to school, or if she has seen the latest Tom Cruise movie. If she mentions her weekend spent at a yoga center and you’re not familiar with yoga, simply ask her what she likes about it, how she got into it, and so on. And maybe ask if you can attend a class with her.

Give compliments: Compliments show that you genuinely appreciate the person you’re with. Find something you admire about them and mention it. If you’re intimidated by the idea of complimenting a woman on her soulful eyes, you can always start with her watch, dress, hairstyle, or shoes. A simple “nice shoes” or “nice bag” will do the trick. This is much more respectful than “you’ve got nice tits”!

Be yourself: Lying, exaggerating, or bragging about your credentials or successes will only make the woman lose interest. Create a comfortable environment where she doesn’t feel pressured to impress or lie to you. Sincerity is always the best policy. People feel most relaxed around those who are genuine and sincere. I’m so relaxed around other people I must be doing this right, lol.

Treat her like royalty: Spoil her with a bouquet of flowers, take her out for dinner, and make her feel special. Show her that you value her company. Women love to be pampered and showered with attention. For your next date, why not cook her a meal at home and spend the evening watching movies or playing a board game? The home-cooked meal is likely to be better than a restaurant, the board game may be fun to play, and most importantly you’ll have the chance to spend quality time together.

Dating is an opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest, and by avoiding these common mistakes, you’ll attract women who are searching for someone special. So, go out there, be confident, and make the most of it!
