3. Bring a Small Gift or Flowers
This simple gesture is thoughtful and it’s a small sign of affection. It will make your date feel special and they will surely be impressed by your manners. You could also do this not only on a date, but when you visit a friend. You could bring a small gift like a card or even some chocolate.
4. Open the Car Door for Your Date

5. Put the Phone Away
Try not to talk on the phone or send texts when you are on a date with someone. Just turn off your phone and focus your entire attention on them. During your date you should only try to communicate with the person sitting in front of you so forget about your phone and just have a good time.
6. Make the Date Official
If you want to ask someone out on date, don’t just say something like “let’s hang out tomorrow” or do you want to grab something to eat?”. Make it official. Tell the other person that you want to take them out on a date and just have fun together.
7. Be Respectful
When you are on a date with someone, make sure that you act in a respectful manner and that you treat politely everyone you meet. For example, if you see an old friend who wants to chat with you, introduce your date, tell them that you are busy and that you will catch up another time. Be nice to the restaurant staff and appreciate their effort in helping you have a great time.
