Silverman's rules on dating #106

This one may sound like a no brainer, but it could use a little reiterating:

Guys, if you go through the trouble of putting together a romantic evening, do something sweet for a lady-friend or take her somewhere nice and special, and she's kind enough to comment on it, never, ever, under any circumstances, reply with "my ex really liked it, too ."

And a little follow up...

Should she complement you on something you're skilled at in the bedroom, it is never wise to reply with, "I've had a lot of practice."
