If you are thinking of asking someone on a date consider the following quick Dating Tips:

1. Why are you asking them out, is it for the right reasons and what do you expect as a result of them saying yes or no?

Becasue I find them physically attractive and want to see if they have anything else to offer.

2. Be prepared that the person you ask may say no and in which case do not take the rejection personally.

Never. I always go in with the presumption they will not only say, "yes", but be excited for the opportunity to go out with me. Of course, no rejection is taken personally, unelss they make it personal. I have most likely been shot down by hotter/better, anyway.

3. When asking someone out choose your moment carefully and practise what you might say in advance so that you don't appear tongue-tied.

Good idea if you already have got into your own mind. It is better to just react to seeing them and have groomed yourself (if necessary) to instinctually seek out and pursue attractive people of your chosen gender.

4. If the person you ask says yes, ensure you already have thought of a place, date and time for the date so that you display signs of thoughfulness.

A good way to do this is to have an idea of several potential date ideas. Custom tailor them to the date after you find one.

5. Be prepared for the person asking why you want to date them so that you are able to flatter and create a sense of trust immediately. People can be wary and they may want to know some reasosn behind your request. Better, anticipate this by saying "would you like to come to dinner, I have always thought you are great fun..".

People can be wary and shouldn't go through life without looking around and anticipating the future; however, a woman's reason for accepting a date is rarely propelled by logic.
