There are certain traits and actions that you can ensure you do to show her you mean business and that you’re good match:
- Do you pay attention?
Are you present, conscious and do you actually listen to her? Women notice many indicators on the first date that suggest that you might not be a quality man. If you’re constantly talking about yourself then she is going to think that you are incredibly stuck up. You must pay attention to the small details and bring up things she has said before. Ask follow up questions, and be genuinely interested in what she has to say.
- Are you thoughtful?
Thoughtfulness doesn’t mean buying her dinner, flowers and opening up doors for her. That’s just standard chivalry. Truly being thoughtful means messaging her in the middle of the day just to tell her you’re thinking about her or cooking her dinner after a long day at work.
- Are you balanced?
Women want to know that you have your life together. That you can manage your time, organize and balance work with play. If you’re balanced, it reassures her of your maturity and your ability to take things very seriously when its necessary. But then again, you have a very humble side where you can make fun of yourself and enjoying a good laugh.
If you’re on a first date, you will want to exhibit that you possess these qualities in order to increase the odds of the romance going further.
