Women Are Sharing the Best Things Men Can Do on the First Date
Some of this seems pretty basic, but let’s face it when it comes to dating we often hear horror stories. In a thread on Reddit, women have started sharing the things that men have done on a first date that have made them want to see them again.
“He remembered little things that I had talked about before that even I forgot about,” said one woman. “Also texted me right afterwards telling me that he acknowledged that I had just gotten out of a long-term relationship and didn’t want to do anything out of my comfort zone but that he would love to see me again.”
It doesn’t sound like a lot; listening really is bare minimum stuff, after all. But this guy made a point of proving that he’d been paying attention, and also that he understood her situation and respected her boundaries.
And while we’re on the subject, that first post-date text can make or break things. “This is more after the date, but he didn’t play any mind games and texted me that same night saying he had a great time,” said another commenter. “It was refreshing for me.” Another added: “Also, if arriving separately, texting to ask if I got home okay – shows you’re still thinking of me.”
Turns out, a lot of women like this straightforward approach: “He texted a little later to ask if I got home okay, and then said hed love to see me again and proposed a date for the next weekend. Pitch perfect way to wrap up a date, and no stupid games.” Here’s more from Mens Health.
