Forget about all the advice in men’s magazines and in the movies you have seen. Act in a way that is the most comfortable for you. Try not to over think your response when engaging in conversation. Of course, it’s important to take your audience into account when formulating a response. You wouldn’t want to something that may come across as rude or offensive. For example, some of the jokes that you may share with your male friends may not be appropriate to share.

Hold the door for her, offer to carry a heavy bag, or help in a small, unexpected way. Fix something that she hasn’t gotten around to repairing, or doesn’t know how to fix.
Pay attention to her physical and verbal cues as well as your own. Texting, reading newspapers, watching television or looking around is rude and makes it look like you are not interested in her or what she is saying. If you notice her doing these things, you’re losing her interest.
If she says no to your advances, accept it graciously. Do not get angry if she rejects you. If you are respectful of her decision she may change her mind in the future. If you act aggressively or talk badly about her, it will only come back to bite you. Other girls may hear about your distasteful behavior and it will ruin your chances with them.
