#1 by crkian
I haven't been out dating for so long.
Be yourself is a must though
#2 by gmoney
radical honesty. Be honest at all expenses.... if she can handle real honesty (not brutal honesty) but radical honesty then it will be all good. To many people send out a representative of themselves out on a date. This means they are not their real self. Be you and practice radical honesty!!!
#3 by acousticguitarist
don't try and be over amorous on the first date
#4 by rileycentral
Do something you both are relaxed and make sure if its an early date that you meet somewhere. It sucks when you feel like you are trapped and can't leave. This is going way back for me though, I got married in 2002

Here is my first advice. When your on the date you will probably go to a shopping area, just to look around. Keep your ears open and see if she is interested in anything. For example, you see her pick up a perfume and tries it on and she likes it. Remember which one she liked. After you go somewhere else, tell her you have to go to the bathroom. Run to the store and buy it. Now this is the hard part. All woman have purses. They love their purse and never let it out of their site. You have to somehow put the perfume into her purse. I suggest in the movie theater where it is very dark. After the date is over. She will go home and maybe that night or the next day she will find that wonderful surprise. She will HAVE to give you a call. That gift got you, a second call, showed your not cheap, showed your romantic, and most likely got you a second date. You know she will tell her girlfriends and her girlfriends will LOVE you which is another plus. Doing this will not make you look creepy, it works! Woman love this kind of stuff.

Hmmm, From a gal's perspective as to what we want on a date....
I haven't dated in some time now....but.....let's see. Don't puke on her shoes (I think it's relatively OK for a gal to puke on his shoes, but like I said, it's been a while), and, what else...
Oh yeah, there will be no giving of the Christmas "goose" early, got it? Chicks don't dig that.
Other than that, let the gal go into the mosh pit first, giver first crack at the bastard who did goose her (then thoroughly pummel him, thats chivalry), let her buy her own beers....and don't piss off anyone in her circle of friends. They are likely to be larger and meaner than you.
Yup, thats about it.

don't go out with a loaded weapon.

Well, I think I've learned today that no matter how tempting it is, you should probably avoid dressing up like Lion-O of the Thundercats if you are trying to impress a woman on a date.
(sorry folks but this next one was just too funny not to add)

1/When on a date be interested in her and try not to go on about your wife.
2/Never pay for the date as women find his offensive.
3/Tell her before the date starts the level of intimacy she will be allowed to achieve afterwards, this should stop any embarrassing moments.
4/Women enjoy football immensely so try to steer the conversation towards this topic she will be impressed by our thoughtfulness.
5/Don't bother dressing up for your date, women like a project and she will see your lack of style and basic hygiene as an interesting challenge

Dating Tips
Here are some basic tips to help develop better relationships while dating. Try one or two, then add others and watch your relationships chart better courses.
Be Responsible and Alter-Abled
-------------------------------
Many famous actors, music artists, inventors, etc., had special challenges ranging from learning disabilities to physical disabilities. For example, Beethoven was born deaf, yet went on to become one of the world’s greatest composers. And Joni Erickson, paralyzed from the neck down, learned to paint with her mouth. If you are faced with a special challenge of your own, get help and discover your own unique alter-abilities.
Push Past Fears
---------------
Don’t let them paralyze you. Many out there dating are afraid of meeting new people. Join the club. And many fear getting close, losing someone, building relationships long term, etc.
Grab a journal, write out your fears, then read about others who have had similar experiences and how they overcame them. Jot down ways to overcome yours and get moving ahead.
Be Good to Yourself
--------------------
Reward yourself for learning how to date online and taking the plunge and signing up for a dating service. Stick to a budget, and don’t go overboard. Even the smallest of budgets can squeeze in bubble bath for a relaxing soak, for instance.
So take care while dating – of you and your date. Borrow music from the local library and sing along while you journal and plan for a happier tomorrow!
Until the next time!

Dating Success Tips
Successful dating comes from a combination of small steps that lead up to the dating relationship.
Based upon interviews with several happy couples who met online, here are what they advise to get the most out of your dating experience.
Move Past the Past
-------------------
Everyone has failures or mistakes from the past, be it a failed relationship, career choice, educational goal or whatever. To become successful, you need to learn from your past, value those difficult lessons but do not dwell on them. Instead, simply move forward and make better, more educated decisions.
Don’t Give Up Dreams
---------------------
You need to have dreams and aspirations. Be honest with yourself as to what you want out of life and what you want to give of your life. Allow your mind to dream and think big - -and keep at it, persevere. You may have to test different dating sites, date several people. So keep at your dreams, even when it becomes challenging.
Grasp Change
-------------
You have a choice in life to accept many things in your life or change them. For example, if you feel inferior because you never completed college, go back and finish. Ditto with technology. Don’t understand emailing attachments, learn. Ditto with relationships. Forget about staying in abusive situations. Take charge, get help and change your environment. If your circumstances lower the chances of success, change them.
So learn from the pros. Take charge and create your own successful dating relationships!
Until then...
Sincerely,
