STEPS:
1. Find someone you like. Keep in mind that there is a difference between thinking some is cute and actually liking that person

2. Get to know them. You want to make sure you actually like this person before you ask them. Have small conversations with them and compliment them every now and then. Try not to make it too obvious.

3. Pop the question. If you talk enough with them and become good friends with them, then they'll be more interested in you than if you didn't talk to them at all. Then say something like "Well, I really would like to get to know you. You seem like a really interesting person, so I was wondering if you'd like to go to the movies on Friday night." This is simply a guideline but you should actually have something worked out to say so you don't fumble for the words.

4. If they say yes, then don't literally jump for joy. Say something like, "Cool. I'll see you there". Don't forget to arrange a meeting place and time.

So how can you increase your confidence for your next date?First off, don’t blow the date all out of proportion. It is just a date - one afternoon or evening. The rest of your life does not depend on it, although of course, you could be meeting your future spouse! Whether you are just looking for a fun night out or desperately trying to find Mr or Mrs right, it is best to just focus on the date itself. Take it for what it is and don’t put a lot of pressure on the event. Enjoy the person you are on the date with and the meal, movie or whatever - don’t have any great expectations other than a fun date.

Go into the date thinking of yourself as a person that has a lot of confidence. We’ve all seen them, the person that sweeps into the room and turns heads even when they might not be the most attractive or best dressed. If you picture yourself as confident then you will act this way - even when you don’t really feel it.
