19 Survey Results On Your Dating World

Aren’t dating and relationships fun? Did you know that humans prefer the mystery, as well as “the chase,” so don’t worry if you don’t make yourself too “available.” Did you know that dating experts suggest not sleeping with a date too early because the longer the chase, the increased chances love will bloom? Below are 19 more results from surveys on dating that were done by

various sources that you might find interesting.

1. Studies on body language express that revealing certain areas of the body, which are not usually displayed (and we are not talking private parts) generally has an effect on the date and sometimes leads to an instant liking.

2. If you want to make an impression with your date, repeat their name a couple of times during the conversation as this shows attentiveness, as well as connection.

3. Remembering things about the person you are on a date with and using them in the
onversation is flattering and shows there is an interest.

4. Women have revealed that, while on a date, if she smiles at his jokes, fidgets with an object, plays with her hair, puckers up her lips, blushes from a compliment, or stumbles over her words, she is into you.

5. If you notice the avoidance of eye contact, either faking a smile or no smiling, leaning away, shoulders begin to sag, constantly looks at her watch or the tapping of her foot, she is not interested and cannot wait to get out of there.

6. Although real beautiful women often receive more stares, harassment and winks than an average-looking woman does, she is also more likely to get passed up on when it comes to being asked out for a date by an average looking man, because they feel more intimidated by her looks.

7. The ideal time to call after meeting someone is an indecisive one between experts. Generally,

the time to wait to contact is a two to four day period, but no longer than four or five days, since calling too soon can come off as being desperate.

8. Want to increase your date’s interest in you, choose an exciting place for your first date.

Studies have shown that there is a definitive link between danger and an attraction.

9. What are some of the worst places for a first date? Your kids’ birthday party, school play, fast-food restaurants, strip clubs, your parents’ house, adult movie theater or a place where there is a chance your ex will be. Church activities and window shopping are also on the list.
