Turn up and be yourself but smell nice and look smart. If she(?) doesn't like you it wasn't meant to be and move on.

Don't mention pimping your date or tell her she's your bitch, until after the second drink.....

I got some great generic advice!

Dress appropriately but make an effort and be well groomed.

While on the date be relaxed and confident but not an arrogant prick.

.Ask questions and [s]pretend to[/s] be interested in what she says.
.If she starts telling you about something, ask more questions & don't immediately start telling whatever your experience is or your opinion is about whatever she is talking about.
.don't talk about ex partners.
.Do talk about how good your job is and how likely you are to get promotion but don't bragg, she needs to know you're not a dead end.
.Don't talk about anything you do too much of, drink/drugs/loose women/x box.

Aftershave recommendations please.

Sorry, I've no idea, after being single for eighteen years, I now have a man who doesn't use any! Remembering from past experience, it has to cost over £40 to be reasonable!

you don't have smell of anything to be attractive, just not be smelling of minging.
You don't need advice on what aftershave is best, it should be one you like, go to boots or debenhams or wherever and have a squirt of a few.

So anything not minging is the advice on aftershave.

Recent aftershave discussion, if of any use.

http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/man-smells

EDIT:

aftershave should be subtle

It's usually the scent that's subtle, rather than any quantities involves. It's the cheaper stuff that makes your eyes water and is mistaken for the wearing having washed their clothes in it. LG is correct on the £40 barrier IME (per 100ml).

A big fugging yes. If she doesn't appreciate the beauty of quill stems and old steel frames, she ain't getting none.

Yes, I'm holding out. 😳

..and if she then volunteers the information that the world's a better place for the abolition of threaded headsets, she's a keeper.

If you can't be like the Hoff, lie, and be like the Hoff...

FWIW, I think you'll find the wedding vows run as follows: For richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, threaded [i]or[/i] unthreaded.

When's the big night Mooly?

And where's the venue, so we can send over a couple of STWer's to assess your efforts?

Have a few pints to loosen up, maybe a couple of tequilas to really get the conversation flowing.

Wear the aftershave you'd normally wear, even if that's 'none'.

What's the point in going out of your way to impress on a first date? You'll then either have to keep up the facade for the rest of the relationship or disappoint her when she finds out what you're really like.

If it turns out that she likes you, is it not better that she likes you rather than some character you've created to impress women?

(Of course, this is moot if you're just looking for a one-night-stand shag; squirt some Chanel for Men about and wash your willy.)
