1. Don't talk too much, but don't talk too little.

This impression usually makes or breaks it. When someone goes on a date they want to get to know you better and have a sufficient conversation. Talking too much might lead the person becoming bored and unaware of what the actual conversion is about. Also, not talking enough is bad because of the same results of boredom setting in.

2. Don't try to be someone else. Be yourself.

It always happens. The person wants to show a better version of themselves so they act and appear differently. A change in appearance is fine because who doesn't like to get dressed up? When people act differently they aren't themselves. Personally, I would like to fall for someone based on their actual personality rather than their fake one. Diversity is beautiful.

3. Avoid strenuous talk. Don't force it.

Strenuous is an adjective which means requiring or using great exertion. If you have to force a conversation, change it immediately. Suggestion: use your surroundings to find a different topic to discuss. Remember: your idea isn't to bore the person, you want to entertain. Usually finding something that the person is interested in can help further extend the conversation.

4. Don't use your phone too much.

In today's society, phones are used by everyone; yes, they're fun and distract us but your distraction on a date isn't supposed to be your phone. Occasionally checking your phone is acceptable but excessively checking it makes the person think that you have better places to be rather than being on the date.

5. Don't forget to end on a good note.

We've all seen it in the movies after the date — girls love to be kissed goodnight and etcetera. This is still true. Even more so, guys love it too. It's a small romantic gesture that goes a long way.
