Speed dating tips for men
According to a number of ladies I have spoken to about their speed dating experiences, it appears that some of you fellas could do with some help. After interrogating them I managed to concoct the following list of pointers that will certainly ensure you make your mark!...
Present Yourself Well
Speed dating is all about immediate impressions and the way you dress can say a thousand words; the music you like, the style you carry, confidence etc. Don’t think too hard about what to wear but do dress to impress and most importantly wear something you feel comfortable and relaxed in.
Say it with a Smile
Your body language will unconsciously give it away, BUT if there is a girl you particularly like beam a natural smile straight at her and watch the results come in. A smile can melt a heart – but only if it is truly unforced!
Focus, Focus, Focus!
Don’t focus on the 2nd date! Focus on your interaction and dialog with the ladies. Women want to know what you are about before committing to another meet. Don’t dominate the conversation either – present some lively questions, but take turns in doing so, this shows you are unselfish and not self obsessed.
Manners go a Long Way
Unfortunately in this age manners seem to be a thing of the past. If you really want to get noticed then I suggest you present some at every opportunity. Remember you are in a competitive situation with other blokes out for the same ladies. Stand out with manners and compliments.
Body Language
This is key to reading the signs of interest from a potential partner. There are loads of things you should bare in mind, initially that you should respect the ladies space and do not dominate it early on. I suggest you read my quick tips on body language.
Love Yourself
You should know that you are on of the best catches in the room for someone. Never doubt yourself as this can be read through body language and you may never get any response. Just tell yourself before the event that you are a ‘great catch’ and a wonderful person to be with! Remember though, there is a fine line between confidence and arrogance.
Relax and Enjoy
Often a hard thing to do, especially with all that pressure of meeting all those people! I recommend that you try some simple breathing exercises between each date (i.e. 3 deep and drawn out breaths), which immediately relax your body.
Be Remembered
Think about this…. How can you make such an impression that you manage to get interest from almost all the ladies. I don’t have the magic answers I’m afraid but I can tell you that if you can find some way of being natural and getting the lady to smile or laugh naturally that you are well on your way. Stick out from the bunch.
