While someone may tell you going on a first date dressed in a duck costume is sexy, you’re probably going to discover otherwise. Most dating advice is backed by good intentions, but that doesn’t always mean the advice is right.

Good advice

* Always being yourself is one of the most important pieces of dating advice around. While pretending to be a better version of yourself is a natural desire, make sure it’s a better version of you, not a better version of someone else. Sooner or later, your date is going to discover the real you and have to deal with it. If there are going to personality problems, acting will only delay the issues, not prevent them.
* Always be considerate of your date. If you’re going to be late, call to let her know. If you’re date is a vegan, don’t take him to a steak house. If your date is shy, don’t constantly abandon her to talk to others. Remember your basic manners and be considerate of your date’s feelings.
* Always try to relax and live in the moment. If you spend the entire night evaluating every little thing that happens, you and your date are going to have a rather boring and stressful time. Try to relax, go with the flow and enjoy yourself. Besides, someone who smiles is always a better date then someone who frowns.

Bad Advice

* Jumping into bed together on the first date is never a good plan of attack. Most people need to get to know each other a little bit before they feel comfortable with such intimacy. Those who are willing to jump into bed right away are more likely looking for a quick fling and not the start to a serious relationship.

A woman should be chased by a man.

This is a rule that has been questioned in recent times. Many women are becoming more forward in expressing their interest in men, and men don’t seem to mind this at all. The more “chase” the woman provides, in theory, the more of a challenge she appears to be. Some women also enjoy men who are challenging, the type of man who must be chased just the same, or perhaps a man that isn’t too easy to tame. The thrill of the chase will titillate some but tire others out. Which brings us to rule #2…

Men enjoy challenge and so women should remain challenging.

This is a risky rule to live by and can turn off just as many men as it can enthrall. Some men do enjoy a challenge, there’s no denying that. Others, however, may resent any manipulation or aloofness that they sense. Acting disinterested, or acting out extremely hot and cold behaviors, can be considered a form of game playing. Before attempting this challenging behavior, be sure that your man appreciates these types of games or you may play yourself out of a good hand.

A woman must make a man need her.

This could also be called the rule of “making him miss you.” This can apply to various scenarios from arriving late for a date, or perhaps never answering a phone call when the man wants to talk. This does make the man miss his crush, but could be seen as manipulative or disinterested behavior just the same. This could also be considered a form of resistance in response to the alpha male’s strong will, a struggle for dominance in the relationship. The problem with this scenario is that if you act too cold too soon, he may get frostbite and seek loving attention somewhere else.
