It seems to me that people asking for a dating advice are asking for something else because when did a dating advice ever help anyone? "Be yourself", "Wear clean socks", "Listen", etc. are all the usual advices, and people know them, but it still doesn't help them.
What people are asking for is "How do I stop being afraid and go on a date?", "How do I grow up?" Indeed, dating can be traumatic for many guys because they are confronting the scariest monster there is - themselves. When a guy goes on a date he is saying "This is who I am. This is what I accomplished in life. Now please judge me."

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
