Inviting your date - a strict vegetarian - to a seafood joint isn't the best of ideas for the perfect 'first move'. The ice you certainly won't break, but your head might! Strange are the ways a woman's mind works.

Lesson number one in any relationship building exercise is to eliminate shyness. At times a simple 'hello' strains hard to come out and gets lodged in the throat. If you think that women need these lessons more than men well, think again. Men can be worse. They don't exactly come on dates with lollipops in their mouth, but they can be sticky and sloppy in their first lines. Women feel at ease with a man who has grace and not one who's a reject from a horror movie. 'You're looking lovely today' is an appropriate line and does make an impression. They like being noticed. But don't overdo it. Half-a-dozen more you-look-lovelies and she'll see through your intentions. So, keep the approach low-key and sensible if you want to swing her around. And keep those hands off - it can come later!

Getting a woman to go on a date doesn't happen just like that. You don't just walk up to a total stranger and say, "Hey, how about a date?" Most times there's always some sort of prior acquaintance, some communication. It could happen at school, at college, at the office, perhaps the library or maybe even at the bus stop. There are those passing glances, maybe a smile and soon your asking each other's names. When some level of familiarity has developed that's when you ask her or him (most often it'll be her) out for a movie, a meal or a Bhel-Puri in the park. Make the right moves and don't blow it having got this far.

Women too have their hang-ups over certain men and while some generally resist the temptation in directly asking for a date and instead have a close friend send feelers, other women have their own modus operandi. The first move could be to create a situation where he gets to ask for the date first. It could happen in an office or perhaps in school or college. May be he's good in Shakespeare and she isn't. That's the ideal opportunity to get close to him and lead him on to ask her out. Being macho is fine, but women look beyond the hulk and bulk in a male. Maturity is the name of this game. A confident man appeals more to women than your flashy BMW.

Look 'em hard in their eye and flash your message. That's the Morse code they understand.
