Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

11 Ways to be the Best Date Ever

  1. Don't offer to meet him somewhere. Let him come and get you. He loves that part.
  2. Let him plan the date. Some guys have no idea how to do this, but they should. If he asks, he plans. If he doesn't plan, then you can make a suggestion, but don't take that role away from him if he is man enough to step into it.
  3. Make conversation, but if he is really nervous and talks about himself the entire time, don't get upset. That's just his way of telling how much of a catch he is and how much he wants to prove to you that he's worthy of you. By the second date, he should be more calm and open to hearing from you.
  4. Let him get your chair. A true gentleman will pull out your chair for you and slowly push it in as you sit down. Smile and say thank you.
  5. If he's talking too much, don't ask him a lot of questions. He doesn't bond by talking like you do, so if you think that asking him questions makes him like you more, you are wrong. It just makes him like himself more. Let him ask you questions and if he doesn't then feel free to just interrupt him to make comments on what he is saying. Guys interrupts each other; that's how they talk. They don't ask questions. So feel free to be part of the conversation and cut in. Don't change the subject; just join in.
  6. Slow down and let him get doors. That's him showing you that he is a gentleman, so don't try to steal that job from him.
  7. At the movie theater, once you two pick the best place, go into the row of seats first.
  8. Eat. Order a sensible meal, meaning one you can eat. And then eat it. Don't order a steak and then not touch it - oooh, he hates that - or a small salad and water. You eat, so don't pretend you don't. Guys love to see a girl with a good appetite. It's one of the things they find attractive in girls.
  9. Let him pay, and then say, "Thank you for dinner. That was so nice of you. I loved it." This is a big part of letting him lead. It is a symbol of him as provider and protector. (If you go out with this guy a lot, you can start to offer to pay every so often. But not all the time and definitely not on the first date.
  10. Talk about good things. Don't whine about bad stuff. And laugh at his jokes (or his attempts at jokes).
  11. Don't call him the next day or even the next week. Let him call you. You are the one who is being chased, not the chaser. Call him first and I guarantee you'll drop 5 points on the hotness scale. :~)
