5 Essential Dating Tips - Continuation of Tip #2, Dating Do's and Don'ts

Fun and Integrity Go Hand in Hand.  Have fun when dating.  Be interested in your date and be interesting.  Honesty is important.  Make sure to tell someone if you are not interested in dating them again.  Lying to someone and keeping their hopes up is cruel.  If you don’t want to see your date again, let him or her know that in the nicest possible way you can. Date the type of people you like and are attracted to, regardless of what other people may think about your choice in dating.  Sometimes dates don't end in long term relationships, but try to stay positive.  You will meet some nice people and probably make some good contacts. 

Plan Ahead and Be Proactive.  Dating is a creative process.  requires Come up with some plans that will allow your dating activities to take you to places you always wanted to visit within your own city.  You'll probably need to expend some energy to making dates happen.  People will not come and ring your bell from nowhere. Go out there and meet as many people as you can.  Gear up by practicing being pleasant to strangers that you meet in the course of your everyday business. Being nice to people is very sexy and great fun.

Positivities.  Surround yourself with positive like minded people who are also dating.  Negative friends who criticize the dating scene or don't understand it will only help lower your own expectations and make you feel negative.

Essential Dating Tip #3 - Etiquette

Have you ever witnessed a couple who's obviously dating at the next table in a restaurant?  One of  them pulls a real blooper and you can't help but think, “I can’t believe he/she just did/said that?!?!”  To avoid making similar mistakes on your next date, stick with some of the following ideas.

Eye contact is crucial when dating, so it is good etiquette to provide as much attention as possible to your date.  They should feel as if they are the only person in the room.  Be a listener and do not talk your date to death, particularly if you are male. Listening shows interest and the ability to compromise. If your idea of a date is talking about yourself and your opinions all night then do your date a favor and stay at home alone.
