Some women are not appreciative simply because they don't realise how important it is for a man to feel appreciated. Men are often just as nervous as you on a date and are sometimes just as sensitive when it comes to wondering if their date is having a good time.

Sometimes men put a lot of thought or go to a lot of effort in choosing a location for a date and even if they don't or the woman has chosen the location, they often still feel responsible for a woman's enjoyment of the date.

If a man has booked a restaurant or suggested a place to go and his date doesn't comment at all or worse still makes a negative comment, he will often take it personally. In your book this may be a casual comment not related to him at all but I have worked with lots of men who tell me when a woman makes a positive comment e.g. about the food - they look upon this as you showing appreciation of them.

So don't underestimate the importance of appreciation. Even if it's somewhere you perhaps would not have chosen, or everything is not totally to your liking, find something positive to say about it.

Appreciation can simply be a "thank you" for inviting you out, suggesting the restaurant, helping you on with your coat to holding the umbrella over you when it's raining. When it's missing, you risk a man feeling taken for granted.
