- Remember that men like women with confidence. If you like who you are, they'll like who you are.
- Practice being independent. It takes a lot of the pressure off of men to know they don't have to take care of you.
- Don't play dumb. If that's what it takes to impress a certain man, do you really want him?
- Dress well. Wear whatever you have on with your own style. Guys like those black seamed stockings and flashy high heels, sure, but you'll be more fun if you're comfortable.
- Don't worry if you don't look like a supermodel. After all, you don't demand that the men in your life all look like movie stars, right? There are more important things. Give guys credit for knowing that.
- Be engaging. A woman who is sitting with a bunch of men is intriguing. Those guys are sitting with her for a reason. Other men will want to know what it is.
- Notice what a man is wearing and compliment him. Men often go to a lot of trouble to look good, but rarely get as many compliments as women do.
- Don't drink too much. Your inhibitions will be lowered and you might say or do things you wouldn't normally do.
- Be appreciative. Say thanks when it's appropriate. Smile when you say it. It means a lot.
- Ask the man about his work, his hobbies, his interests. Listen carefully and ask questions.
- Find out what he's interested in. If you can hold your own in a discussion on baseball, stock cars or fishing, you're in.
- Be relaxed and easy to get along with. The more comfortable you are, the more comfortable the people around you are. You might not be the only one who's nervous.
- While you're busy impressing your man, don't forget to take the time to make sure he's worth impressing. It's a two-way street - you should both impress each other.
