How To Treat A Woman On A Date: The Basics

(via anthonymichaelrojas)

  1. Do not let more than 1 day go by without contacting her
  2. Be on time
  3. Open her car door
  4. Help her put her coat on
  5. Hold the door for her to enter/leave an establishment first
  6. Pull her chair out for her in the restaurant
  7. Order for her (Note – this does not mean tell her what she’s going to have for dinner. Have a conversation about what she wants and then when the waiter comes, order for her.)
  8. At the end of your date, don’t drive off until she’s safely inside
