Just be yourself. You might want to be a better listener. You might want to be open to the possibilities of other people. You might not take the world so seriously. But you can't just adopt a new personality. Doesn't work.

Bullshat. A man is never to old to learn new ways to keep a woman's attention. I've never had a woman say to me, "Your such a good listener. I want to bang your brain's out." Nope, your conversation and ability to keep her intrigued will get you more action than being a good listener.

OP, you should take the time to do two things. First find a male friend that is good with women and ask him to give you pointers on conversing and flirting with women. Secondly, go online and find a dating coach. There are plenty of them.

So how do you think I should tease women when on a date, or talking to them in general?
Let them order the lobster, excuse yourself to the restroom, and then leave.

And, of course, it's easy to figure out what women like. Just look at trends and watch what women do. You do realize that people are not as unique as our culture tells them they are, right? If people thought so differently, psychology and advertising wouldn't be relevant, but yet they both work extremely well. If people functioned so differently and their bodies were so unique, then medicines wouldn't work. Medicines "generalize" too based on signs and symptoms.
I was implying nothing of the sort.
As far as advertising and medicine as ways to prove women are not unique individuals and it's easy for you to figure them out, how does that prove that women are not experts on women, but instead a man who they disagree with, that can't figure them out, is?
Thanks for demonstrating.

That sounds more like, "How to get run down by a posse of disgruntled dates."

OP, you say you are in your 20's but ask a question more relevant to an 8 year old. You don't tease your date at all. Women like a sense of humor, but they aren't looking to feel like the joke is on them. If you cant be funny without turning it on your date, just give up.

Yeah, flirty banter is great, but its success depends on the people involved and the situation they're in. There isn't one script you can go by that will work with anyone, anywhere. If you're not spontaneous and clever and are bad at reading the room, it's probably best to back off.

This whole thread makes me think of Howard Wolowitz.

Don't tease someone you don't know. Things get misinterpreted. Sincerity is appreciated on first dates. That doesn't mean there can't be any humor, but don't make your date the butt of it. If you can't be funny without using it (however harmlessly) against the person you're with, you're not actually a funny person.

And honestly, I would find it rather presumptuous. My friends (male and female) and I are BRUTAL to each other. We don't just tease - we rag each other endlessly. That's based on more than a decade of knowing each other and having each other's backs through some awful times. Some guy I met 20 minutes ago doesn't get to tease me - at least not with some canned remark he's been waiting to use to "impress" me.

It proves that people are not as unique as they think they are and can be figured out by observing trends. In general, men are more logical and analytical. Women are more emotional. Hence, men are better at observing and analyzing trends than women.

Oh sure, they're great at this. You can tell just by glancing through this form.

Woman code cracked all the time, eh? 'Cause you can see how logical dudes are about love and sex.

I'm saying that there is greater ability, in general, for men to be able to do this.
