Do you strike out every single time on a date? You can be Denzel Washington but unless you know what turns a woman off, you are likely to turn your dream date into a nightmare. Here are eight mistakes all brothers must avoid on dates:
1. Sharing your misery
She came with you for a date looking for a possible mate. You goal and
responsibility is to make her feel comfortable and think, “God,
I feel really good with him”! Maintain a positive attitude.
2. Not looking good
Dress your best on your date. An important tip to remember is, “where
your best shoes”! Shoes show your personality and how you feel about
yourself. Ugly, rundown shoes will turn her off and ruin your style.
3. Not getting out of the car to greet her
When you go to pick her up, don’t blow the horn! Get out of your
car and ring the door bell.

4. Ordering food for her without her permission
Particularly on a first date, avoid ordering her food for her. If she
needs your help, she will ask.
5. Drinking to much alcohol
Remember gentlemen, you are on a date. Not out with your boys! Maintain
control of your alcohol intake at least until you get to know one another.
6. Bragging about how great a lover you are.
No woman wants to hear repeatedly how long you hang or how great you are
in bed. This is a little too much information.
7. Too touchy feely.
Unless she gives you a sign that she wants to be touched, keep your hands
to yourself.
8. Not paying for the first date.
If you ask her out, pay for the date. But, if she asks to pay the tip
or pay half for the dinner, by all means, let her!
With today’s black single woman you need to know what she wants and give it to her with out sounding phony. Before asking her out, develop a plan that includes proper manners, open and honest communication and most of all respect.
Overall, the most important thing to any potential relationship is a mutual desire to have a true relationship. Both parties must be willing to give 100 percent. Both parties must share the same values and goals in the relationship.
