How to master the Art of the Dinner Date

A guest post written for The Art of Manliness

Not familiar with The Art of Manliness?  You should be.  They are after all, gently hell bent on bringing back a clear understanding of what it means to be a real man.  And it’s more than just dressing appropriately.  Learn how to change your own air filter, why getting up with the sun ain’t such a bad thing, how to say no, and how to say you’re sorry.  They do also handle themselves quite well when it comes to outfitting your closet.

I’ve said it before and it’s worth repeating:  AoM is one of the big-dogs on the web for guys who are always looking to get a little better.  At everything.

The first time a Dappered guest post showed up on AoM, it was all about how to clean quickly, efficiently, and get your place woman approved in no time.  That was probably jumping the gun, because shouldn’t you take her out to dinner a few times before she sets foot in your place?

Whether you’re still a part of the dating scene or you’ve been married for years, knowing the steps to executing the perfect dinner date is solid knowledge.  Because guaranteed you’ll forget half of them as soon as you depart for the restaurant.  I know this because I forgot a couple during my last dinner date with my wife.  And that was after I had written the darn thing…

Which by the way you can find, right here, at Artof Manliness.com
