You're on a date with someone you really like. What do you do to ensure that the feeling is mutual? Social psychologists report that we tend to like others who reinforce us or reward us. Actively listen to your date, ask questions, smile, and laugh at your date's jokes. Research also suggests that we're attracted to people we perceive as similar to us. You already share some similarities, you're sitting at the same table! Try mirroring your date's behavior (subtly) to show you're on the same wavelength. For example, take a sip of your drink each time your date does.
