Women, need advice on first date etiquette for men?

1. Opening doors is old fashioned. I'm totally over that one.

2. Clean your car inside and out, and it doesn't matter that it's old.

3. Listening and responding intelligently are the fundamentals of all good communication.

4. If she wants to split the bill, split the bill. I always prefer that.

5. A hug is nice and so is a peck on the check.

6. Mini golf? Only if she's expressed an interest in that. Instead of planning something like that, talk about date ideas with her. Mini golf isn't original, by the way. A walk in a park followed by dinner would be good. Or skating, or a movie.

1. Can't you put some WD40 on the door to make it not squeak? 2. Maybe she would feel more comfortable driving to the date location by herself? Maybe you should ask what she prefers? 3. Yes 4. No, pay for the whole thing or she is going to think you're cheap 5. Maybe give her a flower or something sweet, NO kissing unless she makes a move to kiss you first. 6. Excellent ideas! Do not go all Adam Sandler in Caddie Shack on the mini golf course! Sounds good, and if there is a lull in the conversation maybe bring up work or something.

1. open any door for her that is able to be opened without causing a fuss or making a big deal out of it. young women now days are often impressed by a guy who is polite and does this for them, but they would be embarrassed if you make a big deal out of it. when she gets to the car, go to her side with her, but if she reaches for the door handle, don't insist you have to do it. just let her open the door and stand there waiting until she is safely in and close it for her.

2. any girl who would be embarrassed by an older car that squeaks is really not worth bothering with. that is the car you have, so just make the best of it and don't apologize for it. above all, girls like guys who are confident in themselves and don't want to hear a bunch of excuses about why they or their cars are not perfect. if she asks you about it, then just tell her briefly what the issue is but that it is still safe and one day you intend to get it fixed. or you can make a joke about it and say that you like to because it announces to the world you are coming. just don't make it a big deal.

3. correct...but she is also going to want you to share something sincere about yourself. so listening is important, and responding correctly to what you hear her say is important but so is sharing yourself candidly with her.

4. only if it is going to become embarrassing to keep insisting that you pay. if she just gives you the polite reach for her purse and asks how much it is, tell her that you really would like it to be your treat and see what she says. if she says "ok, but next time is on me" then you know you have a second date. if she insists on halving this bill, then that may be because she really is only interested in being friends. let her go there is she insists.

5. a hug (not fully body) or a peck on the check are both good. choose which ever feels most natural to you at the time and just ask her right then for another date. it is best if you have an event or a specific thing in mind you can ask her about attending with you rather than just a vague "let's do this again sometime". tell her you have been wanting to see the latest movie and ask her if she would like to go with you next friday or whenever. or if you have or intend to get tickets to a concert, sporting event, play, or something in your area ask if she would like to accompany you. or if you have a friend's birthday or a wedding or a party to go to, ask if she would like to go. have a date in mind as well, so she can tell you exactly whether or not she can make it.

6. most people enjoy mini golf and frozen yogurt so yeah that is a nice first date allowing for conversation but still having fun.

Be polite and don't over think. You'll act weird if you'll do. If you want to see her again tell her right away.
