One proven way to impress a lady is to exhume intelligence. Not that you are expected to know everything, but atleast you can find out her area of interest and take some time to research & get updated on those areas. That way you can hold her in an interesting conversation and impress her with your knowledge.
Part of why some guys make a fool of themself trying to impress a lady is thinking they have to do something big like getting a horse-drawn carriage for a first date or making a big scene. While these may seem to work for some, majority of ladies out there prefer simplicity. She might just be a shy person and such scene will only make her uncomfortable.
Kindness is another thing that impresses any woman. Don't just be kind to her because you trying to impress her; ladies can tell when you doing that. To impress a lady with kindness, do something kind for somebody else while she is there to witness it, she will immediately be impressed. But don't stage something just to look nice in front of her.
Don't be scared to disagree and argue with her (in a nice way of course and not raising your voice) with valid points because ladies love the banter. Understand that the arguement is not about who wins but letting her see you're reasonable and can be a challenge too. But try not to turn every conversation into an arguement.
This is not in the sense that you become judgemental but always be honest. If her makeup is too heavy; tell her. If she is wrong about something; tell her. Ladies are impressed by a guy who's got an opinion and isn鈥檛 afraid to let it be heard. So speak up when you disagree and observe her reaction.
