Be friendly

Don’t be shy - it will come in the way of your interactions. If you are an introvert, you can work towards changing your attitude. Start by greeting and talking to female strangers. Then you can move to greeting male strangers and making small conversations with them at the department store, newspaper vendor, music store, concerts, while traveling. Eventually you will find it an easy task. It won’t be like a task you are afraid of anymore. It will just be a part of daily life. You will also realize that there are many guys who find it difficult to converse. But now you have broken the ice. The more guys you talk to, the easier it will get.

Get involved in activities

Join a hobby class, play a sport or get involved in any other extra-curricular activity. You are likely to find new people there. Get to know people who you think could be potential interests. This way you will find someone who has a common hobby, which is great. You will also develop a new skill or become better in one, thus giving you an edge over others.

Internet dating sites

Sign up with online dating websites which have a large membership base. You will almost certainly find other people looking for love. Lots of sites will let you sign up for free. You can search for singles in your area, filtering by age, zip code, interests, profession and several other criteria.

Socialise

Go out and meet new people. Don’t turn down any invitations for parties . Alternatively organize one yourself at your own place and ask your friends to get along their other friends. If you're on a budget, you could ask everyone to get their own food and drinks. Just ensure that you have some good music. If you don't have a good music system, either rent one or ask a friend who has one to lend it. When there are more options, you are likely to find that special person. If you find someone interesting in the party, a pub, concert or in class, take their phone numbers or other contact details like an email id. You could maybe get in touch with them later and go for a coffee.

Be punctual

Whenever you have a date, always see that you are on time. It serves you in two ways: you get to spend more time with the person and you are free of any apologies for being late. You have all the time to make him wait after he becomes your boyfriend, but for now, just be on time. Since your deadline is not far away, you need all the time you can get.

Be sure of what you want

Don’t get into a relationship to get over someone or just because you are frightened of being alone. Both you and your boyfriend have to be emotionally stable. Don’t just choose anyone for the sake of it. Be clear about what you want and are looking for.

Don’t live in a fantasy world

Be realistic. Don’t expect your boyfriend to be the best looking person alive. Looks fade. Character and nature is what you have to live with. It will be of no use if the guy has a great body but doesn’t respect you for who you are.

Committment and hard work

Give your best and make it a priority. You can’t just think about it and not act. Like all things you succeed in you have to put in hard work. Focus on your goal. Think of it as a project you would do for a job promotion or an assignment you want to get an A on. If you are planning to cook him a meal, get ready with all the things required for the preparation, well in advance. You can try different methods, experiment two days ahead. So by the time it is D-day, you are ready and confident.

Don’t think of guys just as potential love interests

You may have a plan and strategy but that doesn’t mean you always keep on thinking about that. Don’t just view them as a target and always be calculating and planning your next action in your head. Don't be over-obsessed with the plan. This will take up all your concentration and attention. You might miss some of the subtle things about the person which might be of great help in understanding him better. Just go with the flow. Relax and take a breath. If not a boyfriend, at least you will find a good friend.

Understand him

Get to know his likes and dislikes. Understand the way he thinks, reacts to situations and how he behaves with people around him, like his family ,friends and strangers. Realise what is important to him and the things he values. Be careful not to intrude into his private space. Figure out if he is worth the catch.

Be polite

Don’t be rude, but at the same time, be assertive. Be sweet and be positive. If you don’t agree with the way he does certain things, open a ground for discussion. But don’t criticize or insult him. He is likely to avoid you after that. Don’t be too demanding. Show a little warmth and concern.

Marriage and kids can come later

Don’t tell him how you really want to get married and how many kids you want etc. Also don’t ask him about his opinion about the same. The guy is already wondering whether he should make you his girlfriend or not and you are confusing him. All this tends to put a lot of pressure on his decision and could scare most guys away.

Communicate effectively

The conversation should not just be one-sided. Don’t be self-obsessed and talk only about yourself. Sure, he may like to know a lot about you, but not so much that he feels only you exist in the entire world. He may also want to share things about himself. It's nice to listen to others sometimes. So keep those ears open. Give him a chance to talk. Listen to what he is saying, don’t just go on babbling. Don’t interrupt while he is talking. Some people may prefer to talk less but at least let them say a few words. Remember that just as you may be excited to talk he may also want to say many things.

Avoid talking about your past relationships

Don’t talk about your ex-boyfriend, because the guy may start comparing himself with your ex. You may give him the idea that you still have feelings for your ex. On the other hand, if you criticize your former boyfriends, he will wonder what you are going to say about him later. If he asks you about your past relationships, then tell him .But avoid going into details. He may not appreciate that. Try not to complicate things.

Don’t be a disciplinarian

Don’t be strict and judge all his actions. He is looking out for a date, not a teacher . Avoid laying down a set of rules which he has to follow and debating about trivial issues. Leave all that to your workplace and profession. Remember you are looking out for a date, not in a board meeting.

Similar ideals

The main basic attitudes and ideas on life should be similar. This will avoid tiffs in the relationship. Your outlook towards life should be the same. Both should have similar goals in life, if not the same. For example if he gives a lot of importance to money and you don’t give any, then it will create problems. Or if he likes to spend time at home and you are the partying kind, it can lead to a lot of arguments.

Be happy

Be happy from within and enjoy life. Don’t be sad and depressed. Only if you are happy, your surrounding environment seems good to you. When you are happy, it is more likely that you will lift up others' spirits. So you will end up making him also have a good time. Have fun together!

Behave yourself

Act civilized. No one wants a date who doesn’t know how to behave properly. They don’t want to be embarassed being around you. If you are ill-behaved, they are going to judge you as a person.

Let him be a gentleman

Make him realize that he is the man. When on a date, guys like to open the door, lead the lady, pull out her seat and call for the check. Don’t deny him this right. Give him a chance to please you.

Don’t expect everything to be perfect

Your plans may not always work. Be prepared for a change. He may also have other commitments, respect those. Always have a substitute plan/action. For example if you plan a movie and he cannot make it at that time, don’t loose heart you can always go for the next show. Be patient. Be flexible and ready to compromise. See that even he is ready to do the same. Don’t start blaming him and get irritated. Think from both sides, always.

Be confident

Forget all your doubts and what ifs. If you are not sure of yourself, how can you expect another person to be sure about you. Look smart. This will create a good first impression. Being confident is almost like winning the battle halfway. Stand tall on those feet!
