Here, the same old rule applies - you need to listen to a woman. As a man over 40 you probably need to fight the urge to talk and talk instead of sit and listen. No matter how old you are, you need to have an equal conversation, which means listening to what your date has to say. A woman will be more interested in you if you show a true interest and respond to what she is saying.

Act as though you’re out like you’re twenty years old again, and see how differently your actions and her reactions to you will be.
