5 Fundamentals For Dating Success

Posted on 23 November 2007 by Desmond

More often than not, guys struggle with the fundamentals of dating. Any jackass can get a date, it’s how well you perform on this date that sets you up for any future encounters. Thinking of how her bedroom looks? Don’t blow it on the first date. These simple tips should decrease the possibility of you becoming a one-hit-wonder.

Be Confident
This is and always will be the number one key to successful dating. Now, this is going to be easier for some than others, and you may be reading this thinking “but, I could never have the confidence to approach a girl”. If you think that way, you may have already lost the battle. The old saying is always correct - “Confidence is key”. Most men aren’t born with a lot of confidence, but there is hope… through repetition, confidence can become a learned behavior.

Be Considerate (but not too considerate)
Being considerate is the easiest way to a womans heart. However, if you are too considerate, you may get stuck in the dreaded “friends zone”. The easiest way to avoid the friends zone is to make your intentions known early on. If you come across as a friend, that’s all you will ever be thought of.

Take Care of Yourself
I don’t mean you need to get down the gym and get yourself a six-pack. Although that is never a bad thing, it’s not easy, and we’re just looking for the easy ways to get the girl. I’m just talking about the real basic stuff here - brush your teeth, wash your hair, get a haircut, wear clean clothes. And most importantly, always read the “style” section of Atom Magazine. Stick to our guidelines and we won’t allow you to look like a chimp in a cheap suit.

Have Something To Say
This should be the easy part. I understand that some men truly struggle in the field of communication, but just relax, take a deep breath, and try to be pleasant. Just memorize a few bits of information (even better if it’s something amusing) and bring them up in conversation. Don’t reel them off in a list and make it look like you’ve swallowed a periodical!

Be Funny
I don’t mean you have to be a comedian, but you need the ability to laugh at yourself and not be too serious. Humor always comes out on top when women list their favorite traits in men. Note - sarcasm is generally a poor sense of humor and will not make you look attractive, so avoid at all costs.
