Has it been a struggle to make progress with the women you’re interested in? Have you found yourself feeling like you just can’t seem to get things right with dating or finding a “good woman”? It can be tough dating, but with some self reflection you can start seeing things improve. As easy as it is to simply say the issue is the women, the reality is that there are typically issues on a man’s end that need some adjusting. In my attempt to help give clarity on what some may need to improve, here are 5 mistakes men make with dating.

This is a great article by Stephan Labossiere. When I was dating Lamar Tyler, I really appreciated that he was confident and that he always had a plan.
Mutah says
I’m kind of in on confidence and not being my self, and geez i sometimes feel i shooting it more as an interview than an audition. I guess there should be some balance. I’ve had great dates though just refering to a recent one. Give and take they say huh.
Stephan Labossiere says
You just said a key word: balance. That is exactly what you want to strive for and definitely be yourself. The more you embrace who you are, the easier it gets to be confident or understand what you can improve upon to help build it up.

It is hard on the first date and what may seem awkward at first may lead to a second date depending on how your conversation flows. Communication is key first and foremost, be yourself no matter what. Nine times out of ten your date will always remember their first impression of you.
Sheena says
Any tips for the married man who is trying to plan in the midst of still finding himself?
Lisa says
This article is very powerful and life changing. Yes, I agree with everything shared in this article regarding the mistakes men DO make in dating., for I have experienced them as well. Two things I’d like to add: One, stop the text messages. It’s annoying, it’s childish, and I will not respond. Two, stop talking about your EX. I’m not interested about what she did to you or didn’t do for you. Move on or go back.
Denise says
Yep, another great article. I’m 45 and dated a guy who is 41. I loved him, but I promise he wasn’t ready. He had great potential, but not interested in expounding on them. We actually ended the relationship very recently, and even tho movin on is hard to do, I vow that I’m bruised but not broken. His loss baby!!!
Niekka McDonald says
I really like #3, the part about not being enough and taking the time to grow. Unfortunately I have found that some men are not willing to do this. They have that “well this is how I am” mentality. I had to do the work to get to where I’m at and I expect men to do the same. Growth is good.
Andrew says
Good article. There are men out there who need to learn how to date better.
