Many women aren't sure why they never have more than one date with the same man. This can be frustrating, especially when you don't know what you are doing wrong. There are some simple things that you can do or avoid doing as a woman to help a first date go a bit more smoothly so you have a better chance of getting asked on that all important first date.

The first thing you should do is allow for him to plan the date. Many men will ask what you would like to do or the will ask for your input, but they do this mostly because they do not want to plan a date that you will not enjoy. Instead of throwing options out there and basically planning the whole date for him, ask him what he was thinking of. Or, ask him to come up with three or four ideas and then pick from those. This establishes the role of him being the man, and men actually like when women let them do this!

The next thing you should avoid doing is paying for your meal when he has offered to do so. When a woman insists that she is going to pay the bill the man takes this not as a sign that she is independent and able to pay, but that she is not interested.

When you pay for the bill you make him feel less manly, and this is not a good thing. If you had an agreement to pay for your own meals this is one thing, but if he offers politely oblige and thank him for the meal. If you do this you are sending a signal that you are interested and he will be more likely to ask you out again.

Don't have sex on the first date. This is something that many women waiver back and forth about, but you can put all of the wavering behind you. You should never have sex on the first date! The reason for this is that in some fashion men are always looking for their next conquest. When there are no mysteries left to solve in conjunction with you a man is likely to move on. Leave him wanting more.

This will not only ensure that he doesn't walk away feeling like he has yet one more conquest under his belt, but he'll actually get to know you better and will start thinking of you less and less of a conquest and more of someone that he would really like to spend a lot of time with. The fastest way to ruin a potential relationship is by having sex with him on a first date, so don't do it!
