Joanna Goddard, Glamour magazine's popular Smitten blogger, offers four essential first date pointers.

Take a shot before your date. Seriously. Just one. It calms the nerves.

When you meet up, smile and compliment anything (really, anything) that she's wearing. Flattery gets you everywhere.

Ask her how her day was. She'll be touched and you already seem suave and sweet.

Travel is a fun topic for everyone, so ask if she's going on any trips soon. You'll get a peek into what makes her tick.
