So much has been said about what men should do or not do to impress a woman on a first date. But men too have their expectations on the first date and need to be impressed.

While ours is a patriarchal society where it's all about men; women too have a role to play especially if they are determined to make it work with their date.

So, what are these four secrets to winning a guy on the first date? Here we go:

1. Let the man be the man

As pointed out earlier, our society is majorly patriarchal and men prefer it that way. Therefore, if you really want to win the heart of this guy, simply let him feel like the man. Even if you are the feminist type, mask your feminism and let him enjoy every bit of being the man. Let him open the door for you, pull the chair and do everything else he feels he should do as a man as long as he does not go overboard.

2. Be fun to be with

This can be hard given that you hardly know each other. But play it cool and try to enjoy the moment as much as you can. Engage in fun conversations and debates so that he is not the only person doing the talking. If he jokes, laugh at the jokes and if you are funny, crack a joke as well.

3. Do not humiliate him

The last thing you want to do is humiliate a man's ego especially when he is your date. You may find out that he is really short, talks with a heavy vernacular accent among other things that you did not expect. Again, do not use his "weaknesses" to humiliate him but just remain kind and polite.

4. Appearance

You are trying to win someone and dressing is just one thing that most men are keen to observe. You want him to notice you but again not attract everyone's attention. As such, you will want to put on subtle makeup, dress in a stylish and not sluttish manner while still remaining sexy.
