Hey guys, so I have a date today. And I'm gonna a have a lot or fun, and use it as a way to continue to better my game. As you all know first impressions are most important. I can over think this and try to hard or not do very well here.

1)How do you make a good first impression?
2)What are good things to say when you first meet her. (Teases, openers, conversation topics)
3) How do you escalate properly*

Thanks guys!! My game is getting better every day

1) You need to be relaxed, seems like you are already putting a lot of importance on this meeting. See it as a chance to have a good time regardless of the outcome, this way you will be relieved of the pressure to make something happen and "leaving a good impression".

Make reasonably good amounts of eye contact but not overly in the creepy range. Put on your "seductive face" (source: trippadvice). This is can be described as smiling with the eyes. If you stand in front of the mirror and genuinely smile and then remove the facial expression of the mouth, what will be left will be the seductive / playful face. This should be accompanied with the mentality of feeling playful, otherwise you cannot be forcing something that you are not feeling.

2) There is no specific "good things" to say. You can make the conversation flow, when she is saying a story about something then take a part of the sentence to make an additional question for her or make a statement or tell her it reminds you, your story.
Example:
- Her: My dad was in the military and we moved quite a lot from place to place when we were young.
- You " Oh really? so you must have had some strict rules-abiding upbringing. Did you also learn how to salute and command attention from the age of 5? (smile)"

3)
- Organise the date in a way that you can walk a little bit, sit, walk more and if possible go to a 2nd venue.
In general, the more places you bounce and activities you do together it will help her feeling more comfortable faster.
- Google the vin di carlo escalation ladder
- Make SURE you sit next to each other so that you can touch her.
- Tip: You can use the conversation topics as a chance to touch her. Start small.

Examples:
a) You are next to each other. Let's say she is saying that she has problem of opening marmalade jams because of a weak grip. You tell her "yeah you look like you have pretty soft feminine hands" and you touch them.
b) She is saying she is training muai thai. You say "oh wow, do you also do shin conditioning? Do you know that in Thailand they kick trees for hours to make their shins harder? How hard is your shin, touch her leg.
c) Any mention about her hair / hairdresser etc. Ask something related to it "is this your natural style / you got pretty long hair and while saying that move your hand to touch them and feel them for a few seconds. If she is comfortable and seems positive with you doing that, then she is also very likely to be receptive for a kiss later on.

Don't do TOO MANY of them.

(And don't forget that you need to do the above in a way that you would "be perceived more manly and not a wuss" and make sure "to be respected and not be a Nice guy" Pun intended )
