There’s no doubt that dating has changed over the years, with the advent of modern comforts like television and the internet. If you’re having trouble in the dating scene right now,
sadanduseless.com just posted these dating tips… from 1938. Maybe they’ll help you out!
1. Do your dressing in your boudoir to keep your allure. Be ready to go when date arrives; don’t keep him waiting. Greet him with a smile!
2. Men don’t like girls who borrow their handkerchief and smudge them with lipstick. Makeup in privacy, not where he sees you
3. Don’t sit in awkward positions- and never look bored, even if you are. Be alert, and if you must chew gum (not advise), do it silently, mouth closed
4. Careless women never appeal to gentlemen. Don’t talk while dancing, for when a man dances he wants to dance
5. Don’t use the car mirror to fix your make-up. Man needs it in driving, and it annoys him bery much to have to turn around to see what’s behind him
6. Don’t be familiar with your escort by caressing him in public. Any open show of affection is in bad taste, usually embarrasses or humiliates him
7. Don’t be senitmental or try to get him to say something he doesn’t want to by working on his emotions. Men don’t like tears, especially in public places
8. Don’t be familiar with the headwaiter talking about the fun you had with someone else another time. Men deserve, desire your entire attention
9. Don’t talk about clothes or try to describe your new gown to a man. Please and flatter your date by talking about the things he wants to talk about
10. Don’t drink too much, as a man expects you to keep your dignity all evening. Drinking may make some girls seem clever, but most get silly
11. Don’t be conspicuous talking to other men. The last straw is to pass out from too much liquor. Chances are your date will never call you again!
