Is her mind on you?

We’ve already looked at seven reasons why women turn down a second date, but now it’s time to look at why men may run a mile from another date with a woman!

1. You didn’t seem interested in him.

Paying a bit of attention to your date is pretty essential. If a woman ignores a man, doesn’t ask questions about his likes and dislikes and fails to engage in much eye contact, then you give the impression of not being interested.

2. You talked too much about yourself.

It’s always good to share details about yourself, but there’s a fine line between sharing information and dominating the conversation by endlessly talking about you, you, you! Get that balance wrong and he won’t be keen to endure another date with you.

3. You used Twitter and Facebook during the date.

It’s fine to enjoy using Twitter and Facebook and not surprising that you may want to share news of how your date went – but save it until afterwards! Getting your phone out, sending Tweets or updating your Facebook status during the date is just plain rude.

4. You talked about your ex boyfriend.

At some point when you’re dating, a conversation about your ex’s will inevitably happen, but the first date is not the time or place. If you talk about your ex boyfriend, whether in a friendly or disparaging way, it’s no wonder your date doesn’t want to come back for seconds.

5. You didn’t make an effort with your look.

It’s a sad fact, but looks do matter on a date and it does help if you’ve made an effort with getting ready. If you went straight out from work without changing, didn’t apply fresh make-up or run a brush through tangled hair, then you give the impression to a man that you’re not bothered. Who can blame him to look elsewhere for another date?

6. You didn’t seem tactile.

It may have been your first date, but a little bit of willingness to show signs of being tactile would have helped. If you pulled your hand away from being held or brushed his arm away from your shoulder, then you’ve given the impression of not being keen on physical contact.

7. You didn’t offer to pay.

Some men may like to pay for the first date activities, be it a meal, drinks or cinema trip, but it’s always polite to offer to pay your share. Failing to offer to pay at all, and give the impression that you assume he’ll pay doesn’t bode too well in the impression stakes. No wonder he’s not keen to go on a second date.

No second date

Ever wondered why a woman turned down your suggestion of a second date? If you thought your first date went really well, and can’t understand why a second date was refused, read on to discover 7 common reasons why women say no to a second date!

1. You didn’t make a good first impression.

First impressions count on dates and, for whatever reason, if your date didn’t take to you immediately, then that can make it or break it as far as moving onto another date goes.

2. You didn’t dress for the occasion.

Even if you don’t care two hoots about your appearance the rest of the time, it’s really important to look your best for your first date. If you didn’t change your t-shirt, had a stain on your tie or wore crumpled old clothes to a really smart restaurant, then you can’t blame a woman for being less than impressed.

3. You talked too much about yourself.

There’s a subtle art to first date conversation and, as important as it is to share some facts about you, your life and your interests, harping on forever about yourself forever can have a massive overkill effect.

4. You didn’t talk enough.

Balance is vitally important and if you didn’t talk enough then your date can be put off too. The ideal first date conversation includes plenty of input from both of you. If you can remember uncomfortable silences when neither of you spoke, or you didn’t end up chatting much at all, then no wonder she doesn’t want to go on a second date.

5. You didn’t leave your mobile phone alone.

Tweeting, texting, checking emails or taking phone calls whilst on a date can be an instant attraction killer. If you’re seen to be in love with your mobile phone and more interested in that than the woman you’re supposed to be wooing, then it’s no surprise she’s not up for meeting again.

6. You got drunk.

A little bit of alcohol can calm date nerves tremendously, but getting drunk on your first is a big no-no. Slurring your words, staggering on your feet and generally being drunk don’t make a sexy or appealing impression.

7. You got too frisky.

For some, this may go hand-in-hand with getting drunk, but if you got a bit too frisky on your first date, without being sure that your date appreciated your actions, then this can be a dead cert second date killer.

7 Reasons Why Women Say No to a Second Date is a post from: Dating Tips

1. She looks relaxed, happy and smiley.

Smiling and relaxed

When you’re out on a date, you can tell about how a woman is feeling about you and the date by their behaviour and body language. If your date is looking relaxed, comfortable, happy and smiling and laughing a lot, then there’s a big chance that she’s enjoying your company and being with you. When you’ve got those two factors covered, she probably really likes you too!

2. She initiates emails, texts and calls you.

If you’re dating someone you’ve met online, then sometimes even harder to gauge whether or not she’s really into you. However, one good way of getting an idea is looking at how she communicates with you.

If it’s frequently the case that your woman initiates emails, texts or phone calls to you, rather than you having to chase her, then it’s a great indication she likes you (if they’re frantic, persistent and never-ending, and you feel like you’re being stalked, then this is extreme behaviour and not good).

3. She touches you.

Holding hands across the table

We’re not talking in a sexual way, but if your date seems to frequently touch you when you’re out, such as reaching her hand across the table to touch you, resting her hand on your arm, walking up close to you or putting her hand on your knee, then it’s a good indication that she likes you.

Her touches may be short and sweet, lasting only seconds in some cases, but it’s great that she’s doing it. When women don’t like men, they’ll totally shy away from any form of touching.

4. She asks questions and is interested in you.

When you’re chatting together, you can tell a lot by how your date interacts with you. A good conversation, where the woman is genuinely interested in you, is likely to be populated by her asking questions about you – what your interests are, what your favourite parts of life are etc.

Not only is this is a great indication that she likes you, but it’s also your chance to sell yourself more to her. So think about your answers, answer honestly and don’t be afraid to reveal a bit about your true self.
