* STEP 1: Ask her about herself, her ambitions, her life. Be
interested. It's a rare woman who wants to sit around all night
listening to a man talk about himself. And the more you try to
impress her with your tales of adventure, the less impressed she'll
be.
* STEP 2: Be presentable. Women are notorious accessorizers, and
whether she'll admit it to you or not, you are an accessory. Other
women will judge her on her choice. A clean, good-smelling man with
well-fitting clothes is a real prize.
* STEP 3: Make eye contact. A lot. And smile - in a friendly way.
Don't leer.
* STEP 4: Be a gentleman. It's a myth that chivalry is dead, right?
There are just a few women out there messing it up for the rest of
us who really do like to have doors held open for us.
* STEP 5: Learn to dance. Women will flock to you - all of them
will be impressed.
* STEP 6: Be funny without being crude. It's an art.
* STEP 7: Compliment her. Notice her shoes or her watch - something
that shows you're paying attention. We'll change our clothes six
times before we leave the house; it's nice to find someone who
appreciates the final choice.
* STEP 8: It's hard for a woman not to be impressed with a man who
is impressed with her. If you really like her, tell her so. You
don't have to make a big deal about it, just let her know you
admire her.
Tips & Warnings
* Don't stare at her - or other women.
* Don't guide her around a room. The hand-on-the-elbow steering
technique is very annoying. The hand-on-the-small-of-the-back
technique is usually too intimate.
