First Gay Date

If you are feeling lonely and it seems there is no one to be with, then you can improve these gay dating tips in order to change your dating reality.

Gay Dating Tip #1.

Guys are attracted to guys who have or exude confidence. Confidence is about knowing who you are, what you want and knowing that you'll get it.

Gay Dating Tip #2.

Don't think of it as dating, think of it as meeting someone interesting, for lunch, dinner, drinks, coffee, or whatever it is you plan to do. By throwing away the "date" label you can get down to just having a pleasant outing with the guy with no "dating expectations".

Gay Dating Tip #3.

Relax and just be you. Trying to conjure up some sort of false persona is pointless, you might impress yourself for a second or two and maybe even the other guy for a moment; until he figures out its all hype or "bull".

It's OK to be you and if the other guy isn't interested in you it's no big deal, because there's thousands and thousands of gay men out there looking for gay dating just like you.

Gay Dating Tip #4.

When you're going out to a dating pub or a coffee shop, if you arrive a bit early you can go to the washroom without deserting your date, compose yourself, fix your hair, wash those sweaty palms and relieve yourself if necessary.

Arriving a little early or exactly on time also means that you won't be rushed and you won't be puffing out excuses as to why you were late. It just makes things easier and less stressed initially.

Gay Dating Tip #5.

Dress for the occasion and location. You need to dress nicely and appropriately for the occasion and the location, you'll not only look great, you'll feel great. You'll be confident that you're in the right attire for wherever it is you're going out to.

And now, for our ultimate not-so-secret dating tip for shy guys...

Gay Dating Tip #6.

Wear your "power underwear" when you go out on a date, especially your first dating experience. If you don't have a pair of "power underwear", get some. The idea is to get something that makes you feel incredibly powerful and sexy.

I find that thongs in purple, red or black, fit the bill for my power underwear. They allow you to feel and be powerful, sexy, flirty, and confident; all the things you need on a date.

It doesn't matter if you don't end up in the sack or on the floor later on in the evening. Power underwear is something that can give the shy guy that extra little edge.
