5 Quick Ways to Find Your Next Date

Overwhelmed with family, school, work and volunteer obligations, woman are turning to online dating or speed-dating services to do a little of their homework for them. However, you do not have to anymore.

Here are five easy things to look for whether at work, the grocery store, the local coffee shop or bookstore to locate you next date during your spare seconds--minus the fees.

1. Allows women to enter/exit the elevator first.
It may not seem like a big deal to most, but if a man is running late for a meeting yet still takes the time to let a lady on or off the elevator first, he is showing respect and appreciation.

2. Treats the janitor, waiter and cashier with respect.
How a person treats those who may not directly affect their livelihood, can tell you how he will treat you when a possible argument occurs in the future.

3. Offers you the last piece of pie or final copy of a best-selling book.
He is considerate and thoughtful. If you both reach for the item at the same time and he takes the last dessert or book without so much as a pause, he may be selfish.

4. Gives up his seat on the crowded commuter train to an elderly person.
Besides good manners, this man is considerate, protective, attentive and concerned for the well-being of others.

5. Greets/acknowledges those around him (when appropriate).
By acknowledging that others exist, he is respectful of others and not completely self-centered.
Determining if a guy is worth your time is all about his actions ? what he DOES versus what he SAYS.

Time is a precious commodity many don't have the luxury of wasting. Why spend the next month dating someone who turns out to be egotistical, selfish and rude? Why pass on a potential date that fails to use the "right words" during your two-minutes at a speed-dating event. If you take the time to look for just five actions, you can "gift" your time to a better man.
