Six Ways to Impress a Guy
There are women who are attractive to men, and then there are women who impress men. Women who leave men saying, "Wow!" Each guy is different and some men just don't care about certain things, but the following is a list of traits that are likely to wow your next date.
1. She Can Disagree Gracefully
During a first or second date there can be great pressure to agree on everything. The strategy is "agree and then run for the door." But those little differences may not mean you are incompatible, and meeting someone who can disagree without being disagreeable is a fascinating experience. A woman who can say, "That's interesting, but I have a different take on it," is impressive. More importantly, a person who knows how to "argue" with sophistication and tenderness is showing a great set of conflict management skills.
2. She Has Hobbies and Is Knowledgeable About Them
It's a generalization that's very often true. Men cultivate hobbies. Women cultivate relationships. That's why his garage is full of cars, motorcycles, guitars, golf clubs, and snowboarding gear. It's typically impressive to a man when a woman can sit and talk about her time surfing, golfing, or climbing mountains. One sixty-something user reports that when she tells her dates that she spends her weekends driving a race car on a professional track, they smile from ear to ear.

3. She's Smart
There is a nasty rumor out there that men don't like to date smart women. Au contraire. A woman who is smart and shows that fact, without a need to impress, is impressive. A smart woman is going to bring more to his life, and intuitively he knows that.
4. She Can Take a Joke and Dish It Right Back
Men like to play. A woman who is game to jump into the fray is very impressive. It's nice when she can take a joke. It's even better when she turns and hits us back with a better one.
