How to Find and Catch the Perfect Date

 

Everyone has had or has one. The office crush, the girl who works at the coffee shop, or the guy who walks past your office every day at 3pm. We all have had a big crush at one point, and have pondered how exactly to get them to notice us. Often times, the hardest part in dating is getting to the first date. If the crush is really worth your effort, then once you get the first date, things usually run pretty smoothly. Are there any sure fire techniques to ensure that you get the perfect date? Not necessarily, but there are some suggestions and hints you can use that will better your chances of getting that office cutie to notice you.

First things first, get in touch with yourself and make sure you look as good as you can. I know it sounds superficial and shallow, but first impressions last a lifetime. If you want to get noticed, you want to make sure it’s for the right reasons. Don’t rush to work with behead or throw on mismatched clothing. Make sure you are presentable at all times, and smile. You never know who is checking you out at any given time. This does not mean that you have to change yourself and invest in material goods, but honestly, if you want your crush to notice you, do you want it to be because your hair or makeup looks like it has been left in the same place since last night at the club?

The major key to success here is to put yourself in positive situations. There is no sense in simply standing by and watching the perfect guy or girl walk past every day. If you know the coffee girl gets off work at 4, try and be there at 3:50 and catch her as she gets off work. If the office cutie walks past your desk every day at 3pm, drop a pen in the hallway while he is coming. You never know what kind of small interaction could lead to eventually winning a date and finding that perfect catch. The key here is to take actions into your own hands. Don’t simply sit back and wait for him or her to fall into your lap. You have to be proactive and pursue what you want, if you truly want to have it.

Dating Ideas for Women: How to Plan the Perfect Guy-Friendly Date

Historically, men have dominated the dating world when it comes to planning or preparing a date. That has drastically begun to change in recent years, as there are not very many dating “rules” that consistently apply at all time. No longer do men pay for every date or meal, as it is more common for couples to go “Dutch” for the first couple of dates they go on. Women have commonly dominated relationships while men dominated the initial dating planning. More and more women are beginning to ask men that they are interested in on dates, thus they are taking the upper hand are then have to be the ones to plan the dates. So, how should you go about planning the perfect date that will impress the man you are interested in? Remember, men are a lot less complicated than women when it comes to their interests, make them know you are interested in the same things as they are and you will win them over.

We all know the usual dating routine, dinner and a movie. Usually the man plans it and chooses a fancy restaurant and a romantic movie to win over his date. This does not mean that this is what men want in a date, so do not follow that same boring procedure when planning a date for them. If you know the guy already, cater to his interests. If he is a sports fan, present him with tickets to his favorite sporting event and even invest in a jersey and wear it to the game. Show him that you are supportive of his interests and that you are willing to at least try to enjoy the same things that he does. This goes for pretty much everything, if he loves music get him tickets to see his favorite band or even if he is really into video games, sit down and play with him for an hour. Nothing will show a man that you are really interested and intrigued by him then trying to take on mutual hobbies and interests.
