The biggest dating mistake most singles make is they tend to forget their manners.

It's important to have good manners because your date will use your behavior to
tell who you really are as a person. If you are rude to a waiter at a restaurant
for example, your date may think you are not a very nice
person and decide not to go out with you again. Minding your manners gives your
date a better impression of your true personality. It also shows how much you
respect yourself, others, and more importantly, your date.

Here are 5 of the most important manners that will help make your best qualities
shine through:

1. Be courteous and give sincere compliments

Say "Please", "Thank you", "May I", or "You're welcome" wherever possible. If
you think your date looks great, compliment him or her in an honest, sincere
way.

2. Be positive

People are more strongly attracted to someone who is positive than someone who
is negative is. This means you should make never sarcastic comments that put
others in negative light or argue with your date even if you disagree with
something he or she says. It only makes you look petty.

3. Never use bad language

There is no bigger turnoff than listening to someone who comes across as ill
bred. Whatever you do, never use swear words or bad language that make you sound
like a hooligan. Do not embarrass yourself and always respect your date.

4. Have good habits

If you have a habit of sneezing aloud or talking while your mouth is full, it's
time to keep you manners in check. Women are very particular towards hygiene and
personal etiquette. Never give them an excuse to think you're disgusting or
ill-mannered, even if you're not.

5. Be patient

It has been proven that women love men who are patient. Even if your date is
late or the wrong order arrives at your dinner table, you should never appear
annoyed because it will show on your face. If you can show that you're patient
and understanding, it gives your date the sense of security knowing that you're
someone who is mature and able to keep your emotions in check even in difficult
situations ideal qualities of a life partner.
