  • A few good travel stories
  • And some quirky questions
How To Get a Date With Absolutely Anyone: Dress nicely

Step 1: Dress nicely

Dress nicely, but don’t overdo it. Being overdressed or too sexy makes you seem desperate, which is always a turn-off.

How To Get a Date With Absolutely Anyone: Smile

Step 2: Smile

Smile at the person who’s caught your eye—but do it the right way. For women, that means smiling while eyeing his body appreciatively. For men, it means holding her gaze.

How To Get a Date With Absolutely Anyone: Approach with a good opening

Step 3: Approach with a good opening

Approach the person and say “hi.” Then deliver an opening line that includes both a “we” statement and a personal question that involves the person’s feelings, such as, “If the band is as good as I’ve heard, we’re in for a great night. Are you into rockabilly?”

Note to men: stay away from sexual innuendo—a big turnoff to women—and go with gallantry, like rescuing a woman from the guy who’s serving up the smut.

How To Get a Date With Absolutely Anyone: Learn names

Step 4: Learn names

Memorize the person’s name and use it. People find it flattering, and transfer those good feelings to you.

Note to women: tell him he has beautiful eyes. One survey found this is more successful in scoring a guy’s interest than offering to buy him a beer.

How To Get a Date With Absolutely Anyone: Ask quirky questions

Step 5: Ask quirky questions

Ask quirky questions. A study of speed daters found that the woman picked for a date by every man was not the prettiest; she was the one who asked, “What’s your favorite pizza topping?”

People who share an exhilarating and/or scary experience—like, say, a mechanical bull at a bar—bond quickly, because they confuse their feelings of excitement with attraction to their partner.

How To Get a Date With Absolutely Anyone: Talk about agreeable things

Step 6: Talk about agreeable things

Steer the conversation to agreeable topics. Yelling about nuclear disarmament or which God is the real God is best left for after the third date.

How To Get a Date With Absolutely Anyone: Offer to buy dinner

Step 7: Offer to buy dinner

Seal the deal by asking the person to dinner. Not drinks, which makes you seem uncommitted. Not coffee, which makes you seem cheap. Actual dinner.

“I’m going to be busy for the next few weeks” is man-speak for “I’m not that into you.”

I don't think going to dinner is a good first date, unless you've covered alot at the first meeting. Going to dinner is a reduced conversation activity.

It'd be frustrating when you have several dates and none of them works out.
