Many people follow dating superstitions. Singles watch carefully for dating signs, read horoscopes, and even carry charms in an attempt to be lucky in love and avoid bad luck. These superstitions may seem silly, but following them can actually influence the outcome of a date. By helping you feel positive about yourself and your chances, superstitions can give you the confidence boost you need to attract a mate.

The first date I had with my wife was on the 17th of January. I remember that only because she looked so nervous sitting in my car as we drove to a restaurant. I can understand why you're nervous: I'm not Italian, I'm two years younger, and this is - after all - our first date. But her stress had nothing to do with normal dating issues. She told me that for the Italians, the 17th is the equivalent of the number 13. Bad juu-juu. Like a cracked mirror. A superstition that dates back a thousand years. Suddenly I had a headache. This was going to be a long night.
