Here, Fast Impression’s Dating Guru Justin Parfitt sheds some light for all you ladies out there on what guys really want to hear. Enjoy these tips and learn your lesson before it’s too late!
Things guys love to hear...
1) “Then what happened?”
They are human after all – even if they are men. A man likes
to
be reassured that their lives are, in fact, interesting. And while
interrupting him, changing the subject, or acting bored are well-known
nails in the coffin, it’s not always enough to just sit
there,
smile, and repeat a monotone, “Uh-huh,” especially
if that
is the only thing you say throughout your date. He’ll know
you’re genuinely interesting if you actively encourage him
with
comments like, “You’re kidding! What happened
next?”
or “Go on...”
2) “That’s pretty
impressive.”
Maybe he placed in a local triathlon. Or got a promotion at work. Or
figured out how to fix his air conditioner. Whatever he’s
done,
if he’s mentioning it on a date, he’s most likely
proud of
it—and if you feed his ego by applauding his efforts,
you’ll make him feel like a king.
3) “What do you do when you’re not
at work?”
Although a guy’s work might be of primary importance, he also
has
other things in his life that he values. Does he juggle? (Well, maybe
that’s not one you’re hoping to hear) Work on his
car? Play
an instrument? With a little probing, a woman can hit upon hidden
passions—and convey that she’s interested in
getting a
complete picture of him and not just what he does for his paycheck.
…And things men hate to hear…
1) “So how do you feel about
abortion?”
This type of question is known among men as a litmus test—a
touchy topic that women raise to gauge whether we’re
politically,
morally, or spiritually on the same page as them (the death penalty,
gay marriage, and the war in Iraq also fit the bill). Sure, they
probably have strong opinions. But men are not interested in getting
into these subjects with you, at least not yet. After all, this is a
date, not debate club. Let’s all have fun and save more
heated
back-and-forths for later.
2) “How do you feel about having a
family?”
Pop this question during the first date, and most men will assume your
biological clock is ticking fast and loudly—and
that’s not
a good thing. It’s not that all men don’t want
families,
many of them actually do—it’s just that men tend to
like to
get to know a woman first, before you start a discussion about your
favourite baby names. And men like to know you like them as more than
just as a potential baby-making machine. After all, where’s
the
romance in that?
