Dating Gestures That Impress Women
Schedule Plans in Advance
When you try to schedule plans last minute with a woman, more often than not she's going to take it as you viewing her as a last resort. If you want to spend time with a woman, call at least three days in advance to make plans. It tells her you have respect for her and her time.
Get Off Your Phone
If you're going to sit on your phone and have a conversation while you're on a date with a woman, don't bother asking her out in the first place. Show her you actually want to be there with her by giving her the attention and respect she deserves. Keep your phone on silent and only check it rarely unless you have a child at home or a friend that's sick. Make sure to inform her of this early in the date so she doesn't think you're checking the time in a rush to leave; she'll appreciate you being upfront.
Open Her Car Door
Don't almost knock her over to beat her to the door - it's happened to me before - but it's a nice dating gesture to open the car door for your date. When it's raining, hold the umbrella over her and then put it over the space between the door and the car while she's getting in so she doesn't get wet. She'll appreciate the gesture; some women will lean over and unlock your door for you in return.
Offer Your Jacket if She's Cold
If she seems to be chilly, whether you're indoors or out, offer her your jacket. It's a sweet dating gesture that shows her you care about her comfort. Hold it out and open so she can decide if she'll take it from you to put it on herself or if she'll put it on while you're still holding it.
Make Sure She Gets in Safely
When you drop her off, don't leave until you see her walk inside her home. If you're dropping her off at her apartment building, go in with her and walk her to the door of her home. When you're dropping her off where you can see the door from your car, you don't have to get out, but wait until you see her go inside.
Keep in mind that making these gestures should be a matter of respect and kindness and not in anticipation of getting something in return. Men may be surprised just how far small dating gestures can go, especially when continuously doing them after the first date. You will definitely stand out among other guys.

Post a CommentTo all the dating guys and ladies: manners should never be overlooked as it's a two-way street. So ladies, show respect and courtesy to your guy. To all the guys who now and then take their mom out to lunch or dinner: show her how great your manners are and open doors for her; pull out the chair for her; and put away your cell phone as you never know who is watching--it might just be the girl of your dreams.
on the get off your phone thought, yes, but here the thing, all to many women do that and a million on things and don't give 2 thoughts to it. OR even really care what anyone else thinks. yes. it funny thought becuase the girls friend will say...So and SO I cant believe you just said or did that. and the other girls responce will be, I dont give a***** the guys a JERK and just ***me...Blank HIM.
@Ken Stewart. Hey sweetie get the panties out of your ass or please stop wearing the thong backs. Not everything in life has to be taken so seriously. Please do us all a favor and lighten up.
These are manners that are not restricted to just a dating relationship. It is polite, if you are talking to somebody, to give them your full attention and not just part of it.
Though a couple times in my college days, holding a door for a woman got me yelled at (she was in the feminist mode and I was 'demeaning her' by holding a door....phfft), I have retained the manners I was taught in my youth. Today, as for the most part then, they stand me in good stead. Manners, chivalry, consideration...never underestimate how a held door, offered jacket against a night chill, and other seemingly simple gestures will make a date.
These are dating gestures? Oh! I thought these were called manners. But I guess if there were more people that used manners the world wouldn't be in search of those that have them.
It blows me away that this even needs to be written down somewhere... much less blogged about. There's not a single thing in this article that shouldn't be automatic. Guys suck.
I offered my coat to a woman once and I not only impressed her but every woman around us. Good move!
If we take two cars I ask her to give me a call just to let me know she get home safe. Nice touch.
@ DeAndre Derrick: Probably why you"re the only one laughing since this post has nothing to do with joking. If you're going to take out a woman that's that stubborn, both of you deserve what you get.
Regarding the giving you date your jacket if she is cold... what if I'm cold too? What if it's freezing inside the building? I'm supposed to freeze my ass off so that my date can be nice and toasty in MY jacket? I was smart enought to bring a jacket because I knew they keep the AC at 60 dregrees and I warned you too. Now, because you refused to bring a jacket I gotta be punished?
Calm donw ladies, the above was an exaggerated joke.
