First dates are also awkward for two people who don't really know each other. Sometimes it is difficult to have fun when their is anxiety floating around.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Getting rejected alot after first dates.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

You're not talking about your racial theories on dates, are you? Talking about politics can make me lose a stiffy.

Racial theories? Since when do I have racial theories? Yes, I have talked bad about Muslims and Islam, but last I checked...they don't fit into the category of race.diplomatic_lies said:

haha, you seriously talk about religion on a first date?
Heres a few 'banned!' topics for first dates:
-religion (if you spent more than 2 minutes bagging muslims i personally wouldnt see you for a 2nd date)
-war
-aids
-politics
-anything negative about your social life/job/family/the place you are currently on your date
-abortion,marriage,divorce
-philosophy
-Boasting about anything (she WILL pickup on it)
- handicapped people, racism, bias' in general
- illegal acts in which you have participated
- death, the fungal infection on your arse
Basically try to avoid any topics which will cause feelings of sadness, boredom, anger from conflicting arguments, or portray you as a petty whinger (negativity)
I'll add to this list saturday, i'm off to a FBs house for a few days

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
