How To Be a Great Date (circa 1980's)

I found a page of a magazine that I had torn out way back when with bullet points on how to be a great date. I am pretty sure I was insecure in my dating talents back then, so I must have saved it thinking it would be of some assistance. Now that I am almost technically back in the dating pool, I think some of these points will come in handy....

*Pretend he's Henry Kissinger and you're Barbara Walters-then interview him.

*Don't style and spritz hair to the point of stiffness- men like to touch soft tresses.

*Never complain (the chops are over cooked, the movie was awful).

*Order dessert- a lusty appetite is sexy.

*At the table, be a little geishalike- butter his roll, put the sugar alongside his coffee.

*Don't brag about your ancestors.

*Be flamboyantly amused by his witty asides.

*Give him a tiny present (really tiny, like a funny button).

Yeah, with these tips, I think I will do great.

Or NOT!
