Cracking the Code: Unveiling the Key Behaviors for Second Dates

A new study published in Sexuality & Culture explores the behaviors that can increase the likelihood of securing a second date. The research suggests that men who demonstrate better etiquette, such as being kind and showing good manners, have a higher chance of getting a second date. On the other hand, women who show greater involvement through eye contact and laughter may improve their chances. The study also found that men value women who engage in physical and flirtatious behaviors, while women value men who demonstrate kindness and appropriate social behavior. However, a separate analysis of the Netflix show "Dating Around" did not find significant effects of these behaviors on securing a second date, possibly due to editing and a disconnect between perceived and actual effective behaviors.
