Hey boys,
This is the move that will solidify you on early dates.
Courting is a ritual. A series of progressions into different stages of a budding relationship. More things go on in the first 4 dates than you realize.
Anyways, early on, you are simply there to interview your new date. Elicit what info you can and determine whether or not you want to spend some time getting to know them or just don't want to waste your time with them. Once you realize that you DO want to continue on with them it is your turn to make a move... This magic little ditty will do wonders.
When walking from your car to a restaurant or whatever, simply crook you arm(don't look awkward doing it, don't for a second believe she will pass). She will accept the offer as is proper ettiquite whether she's into you or not. By doing this little maneuver you are indicating to everyone else that the two of you are out together. You are indicating to her that you've accepted her as having potential and the evening is going well. You have NOT taken her hand, you have not indicated any level of interest, merely said "I am accepting your company this evening and enjoying it".
Pros:
A) You come accross as a Gentleman. Manners ARE important.
B) She gets to play Audrey Hepburn and feel all American Princessy and warm and fuzzy.(It's all about how you make them FEEL when they are with you)
C) You discourage others from eyeing her
D) You get some good Kino in.
E) You don't come accross as possessive because SHE is holding on to you, not the other way around. In fact, you set the precedent.
F) You can deftly move from this position to an arm around the waist.
G) She gets to check your pipes out.
H) Other women check you out when you have a woman hanging off of you... your date sees this and puts more value on you.
I) If she's wearing heels and stumbles she can hang onto you... Women love a sense of security in the man they are out with.
J) It shows that you know what you are doing.
K) Holding hands early on may be too personal or show too much affection, this is a counterbalance.
Cons:
A) If she's a femi-nazi you get the I can walk on my own speech.
B) If she doesn't take your arm when you offer it is a snub, don't date women who snub you. You are spending your valuable time on showing them a good evening. Snubbing is unacceptable.
C) If it's cold and her nose is runny it might drip on your sleeve and dry cleaning is expensive.
D) If her most recent ex sees you together he might draw the conclusion that you are closer than you actually are and deduce that she cheated on him with you and decide to make a scene. In which case you have to throw the guy through a store window and everything goes to hell in a handbasket.
Yeah, I think it's a magnificent maneuver for a first and second date... even if you're already sleeping together.
