Glamour: What are your Dos and Don'ts of dating?

The Honorable Oliver Plunkett of Ireland: Every girl is different, so I think it's just important to keep an open mind on each date. My biggest problem, or my biggest Don't, is that I talk too much, and then I don't allow the person to speak. Then they just wind up bored, while I'm blabbering constantly. Sometimes a girl can be very well-mannered, and if you're not as elegant in manners, it can be very hard to match up. I try to take her lead.

Lord Robert Walters from England: Don't take yourself too seriously. Enjoy yourself, be open. More importantly, be yourself. I can't express that enough. Everyone puts on a facade at the beginning. You're never meeting the real person. I don't like yes men or yes women. So be yourself as much as possible. Not being yourself literally just drains energy, and you can't truly have fun.

Prince Alexander of Russia: Be yourself. There's no point in going on a date if you can't be yourself.

Prince Lorenzo de' Medici of Italy: For sure a woman should be herself and be smiling. Be attractive, be different than any other woman. Every woman has experiences in life that make her different, so embrace that. That can be very attractive to a man. Smile a lot, show me different emotions, and express to me what you've had in your life. A woman should dress as a woman, not only in private life, but in outside [life] because I want to be proud of my girl. First thing I'm looking for is her intelligence. Although if she has good shoes, she'll get my attention too! And never lie in a relationship. Guys are often afraid to say that because they're afraid of what girls will say to them in response.
