Tips and techniques wanted on what things have worked, haven't worked when trying to make a good impression on the first date? All disasters and success stories welcome.
For example - Make sure your shirt is not put on inside out, although this can provides some humour, at your expense.

One tip...Be yourself...you don't need to try to impress...being anyone other than who you are....always turns into...well you weren't this way in the beginning.....just be you and all eyes are wide open!!!!!!!!
1: Ask her out several days (at least 4 days) to a week in advance - women need the time for planning and it also shows that you are thoughtful enough of our time.
2. You plan the date (especially the first one)... don't ask us what we want to do all the time.... appears as though your not putting alot of effort into dating.
3. Let her know somewhat of your plans, so she can dress appropriately. Just let her know if the date will be casual, dressy or formal..... this way it leads to less embarrising moments. when you arrive in a suite and she is in jeans.
always have always treat them like a lady with respect and TLC always put them first listen to what they have to say always open the door for them but never pick your nose in front of them
Why not a walk in the park? Going to an art show? Going window shopping in an interesting part of town? Taking her with you to run errands?(It's fine, trust me) Taking her to a party that friends are throwing?
Here's a hint: DO SOMETHING THAT HAS INTERESTING CONVERSATION AND EXCITEMENT BUILT IN.
Scratch the cliché dinner or movie date off your list, better yet cut out that part of your list and burn it.
Movies leave little room for conversation, when the idea is to get to know each other better. Or suppose the two of you don't click, do you really want to sit through an entire awkward meal? Of course you don't.
I personally like coffee shops, or bookstores, or the artsy fartsy part of town. I'm totally not artsy fartsy, but it always seems to make great dates.
You shouldn't have to spend alot of money, not because you are cheap, but because it sends a negative subliminal message to your date. What message? This message, "I'm not creative or interesting, so the best I can do is pay for your attention." If your attitude is that you need something other than yourself in order for a woman to like you, this is UNATTRACTIVE to women. They can smell this kind of attitude and lack of self-worth and it's stinky, stinky, stinky, bad.
P.S. women like it when a man has a plan. Come up with something creative, and fun that leaves plenty of room for conversation. You don't have to be totally rigid, you can accept some of her suggestions, but if you leave it up to her you're sending another message you don't want to send. What message? This message, "I'm not creative or interesting, I don't have a plan, I'm just willing to coast through life at the whims of others."

Check out the acoustics in the church,and marvel at the skill of the builders.
After a 5 hour lunch,invite her into the church.
Sing overtones.
Replace her jaw somewhere underneath her nasal cavity,because it has dropped into her lap
Award yourself 1000 brownie points.
Overtone singing consists of singing two or even three notes at the same time.Sounds like magic,but it´s not.Just takes years of work...... lessons available HERE

Bad luck, I love spontaneity. When we met I could plan where to go (our wear :), our mood).
