Understanding Women in Relationships
Posted On Tuesday, March 18, 2008 at at 4:19 AM by chairichBy Mikel Ross
In case you haven't noticed, women have a different perspective when it comes to relationships. It's been this way for centuries. Since the beginning of time, understanding a women's perspective regarding relationships has been a daunting task. For many men it is an unsolvable puzzle.
Men need to understand that women think differently when it comes to relationships. They are much more intuitive then men. They tend to come to understand problems and situations all at once. They take a broad perspective on things, which makes them prone to becoming overwhelmed at times. Men tend to focus on one problem at a time or a limited number of problems. They are also able to separate themselves from problems and minimize the complexities that may exist.
Women in relationships tend to be more sensitive then their male counterparts. This has a physiological basis. It has been noted that women have an enhanced physical alarm response to danger or threats. They tend to be more aware of non-verbal cues as well. That's why you can say something to your girlfriend, and three days later she asks you, "What did you mean when you said..." This is because women are hypersensitive to your words and actions.
Women in relationships tend to be more focused on where the relationship is going. This is natural for them, as it is in a women's biological make-up to want to settle down. Even if a woman says the opposite, her biological clock is always ticking. This causes her to be much more attached emotionally to her man. There are many examples in the animal kingdom where the female relies on the male for protection throughout her life. She, in turn, bears and raises the children. That doesn't mean that your girlfriend is thinking about children. It simply means she's more likely to want to be reassured that you are investing in her and only her.
This dynamic has changed in our modern world. No longer are women reliant on men for protection. The days of the stay-at-home mom have all but come to an end. Women now work full-time and pay their own bills. This results in women being much more independent in relationships. This isn't a bad thing. For instance, it is more acceptable now more than ever to "go Dutch" or even have her pay for your meal. Think about this the next time you are heading out for a dinner date!

Questions to Ask Before Ending a Relationship
Posted On Monday, March 17, 2008 at at 4:23 AM by chairichBy Mikel Ross
There are many times throughout a relationship where one of you may consider ending it. Maybe you've been fighting a lot or maybe your personalities have begun to clash. Maybe she can't seem to quit complaining about you watching the football games you o so love. Whatever the reason may be, you are considering breaking up with her. However, before you do, you may want to ask yourself these questions in order to find out how you really feel.
- Have you grown apart?
Sometimes people change over the course of a relationship. People develop different hobbies and different ideas. Maybe she's going to a different school in the fall and you've begun to distance yourself because you know you won't see her often enough. If the relationship is worth saving then these things are issues that you can address with her.
- Has she broken your trust?
Has she cheated on you or lied to you? Has she done something that she knew you didn't approve of that has caused you to question her character? If so, you have to ask yourself if you can forgive her. If you can, then great. If not, then it's time to move on.
- Are you bored?
Have you become less interested in her or has your eye begun to wander? Do you wonder what it would be like to be single? If yes, then you should probably end the relationship before you end up hurting her.
- Are you worried what your friends think?
Sometimes we place too much importance on what other people think. If you are the kind of guy that determines his relationships based on the opinions of others, then stop! You need to understand that she's not dating your friends-she's dating you!
- Do your parents like/dislike her?
Sometimes the opinions of our family can weigh heavily on our decisions. When it comes to breaking up with somebody, however, you have to disregard what they think. This is about two people: you and her. Even if your parents love her and think she is the perfect girl for you, it is important that you make this decision based on how YOU feel.
Breaking up with somebody can be one of the hardest things for a guy to do. Before you do it you must decide how you really feel. If you go through the list above then you will be much more equipped to make a decision either way.

What Do Girls Look for In A Guy? The ONE Characteristic that ALL Women Love - And How to Get It
Posted On Sunday, March 16, 2008 at at 4:28 AM by chairichBy Sun Yung
Let me ask you some questions.
What is the NUMBER ONE CHARACTERISTIC that all girls look for in a guy?
Do you think it's PHYSICAL ATTRACTIVENESS? Such as, a full head of shiny thick hair, perfect sparkling-white teeth, a chiseled jaw line, tallness, muscles, etc
Do you think it's SUCCESS? Examples: a great job, owning a company, being famous, etc.
Do you think it's WHAT YOU HAVE? Examples: a cool car, a wardrobe full of designer clothes, a beautiful home, etc.
These things are what most men think of when they consider WHAT WOMEN WANT. It's a tricky question. Even Sigmund Freud, master of the human brain, died with the question on his lips: "What do women want?"
Well, guess what. It isn't ANY of the characteristics above. Sure, they might give you a slight advantage, but if you're lacking the KEY INGREDIENT, then NO amount of money, fame, or physical attractiveness is going to help.
The thing that attracts women MORE THAN ANYTHING to a man , regardless of whether he's tall or not, hot or not, buff or not, "successful" or not is CONFIDENCE.
SEXUAL confidence, to be precise.
I'm not talking about that feeling of smugness that you get when you think you know how to please women in the bedroom. When I say "sexual confidence", I mean the kind of confidence that a man has who can just attract women NATURALLY.
Clearly, to attract the kinds of women that you want to attract, you need to get your "inner game" sorted out. It is because once you place a high value on yourself (i.e. you know you're an attractive guy), women will follow your lead and echo that opinion of you.
Now, the question is how to get that inner game sorted out?
1. Get your head screwed on straight and FIGURE OUT THE REAL DEAL.
Get past the false belief that women are attracted to men who are tall/good looking/rich/famous etc. One great way of doing this is simply get out there in the world. Go take a seat in a busy part of town, or in the park, and look at the couples strolling around. See for yourself how many beautiful women are paired with average-looking guys.
To get over your limiting beliefs that "hot women go for hot men" (or famous, rich, etc.), YOU HAVE TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF! So, become an avid people-watcher for an afternoon or two.
2. Realize that there is no quick fix for this issue.
I know this is a drag. But in all honesty, there is nothing you can do that will solve your confidence issues overnight, in a week, or in a month. Building strong self-confidence is an ONGOING EFFORT. It is something that you will need to work on CONSTANTLY in order to get this area of your life sorted out. So, you need to be prepared for this!
And, last of all, you need to give yourself something to be confident about. You need to make sure you can base your self-confidence on something, because otherwise it's just going to be load of hot air that's based on ZILCH.
And if your confidence rings hollow - if you're just FAKING IT - then it won't work. Because women can tell the difference between a guy who KNOWS he's confident and a guy who just WANTS TO BE confident.
So, brush up those people skills! Find out about small talk, how women like to be talked to, how to flirt successfully, and how to make people like you.
Finally, if you want to be the kind of guy that actually has so many girls interested in you then you're going to need a complete overhaul in your thinking, behavior, and perspective.
Can it be done? Yes, what you need to do is to learn the skills on how to meet, attract, and date the kinds of women that you have always wanted (and you don't need to be rich or handsome to do it) by visiting Double Your Dating Inside
Dating Younger Women
Posted On Saturday, March 15, 2008 at at 4:20 AM by chairichBy Michael Dat
So are you interested in dating younger women? Or are you dating a younger woman currently? Good for you! Dating younger women is definitely easier than dating someone older than you. She can be 10 years your junior but both of you are madly in love, so who cares? However, do not get too confident. Dating younger women can be quiet challenging. It is not only affected solely by the digits of your age.
Basically, women seems to be more attracted to older man in their thirties and beyond. Maybe it just natural for women to like older man, just like what you see happening in high schools where a high school girl dates a college guy. Well, it is actually not a natural phenomenon. There are reasons why women go for older men.
Basically, younger women often are attracted to traits like money, maturity, higher social status, leadership abilities, masculinity, confidence and composure.
Firstly, older men are generally more worldly then them. They most probably have discovered a lot more things about themselves and learnt numerous life lessons that younger men have not. They are more matured and hence they know what they are looking out for in women. Furthermore, they do not get overly sensitive with their feelings unlike boys who get jealous about silly things.
What does a woman look out for when they date an older man? Younger women want stability and security that the man has got to offer. It is not the money that they are after! It is the security! Emotionally, financially and physically.
Younger women love the attention. As such, by dating older man, they believe that they get to spend more time as a couple, unlike with the younger men, who parties like a rockstar and simply ignore their poor girlfriends who are stuck at home. Younger women loves the seriousness that older men posses. It is a hint to these women that these older men are serious about the relationship and not just there to have a good time.
Though at the same time, do not get all too tied down with seriousness. Tease her once in a while and goof around if you need too. Just remember not to take her too seriously. Opt for things that younger guys generally cannot afford! She will definitely boast about it to her girlfriends.
As fore mentioned, younger women loves men who are able to lead. Younger women have very little experience and thus they prefer to look for someone who is able to take them out and show the world to them. For example, volunteer to plan for a date and ask her for opinions, instead of thrusting to her to plan for everything. At the same time, do respect her opinions. Small gestures like pulling out chairs and walking on the outside curb can make a big impression on younger women.
Although both of you might grow to be comfortable with each other, she might still find you way too intimidating. Avoid behaving like a perverted old guy. It is ok to flirt but do not proceed further unless she drops hints of it. Otherwise, you might scare her away.
To wrap it up, give her space to stand on her own feet too. Do not be all too daddy-like or she might find that she is dating the wrong type of guy. Do not chase her around too much, but instead, let her come to you. Keep these simple tips in mind and you will be looking at a promising long lasting relationship!

Conversation Topics That Will Destroy Any Date - Avoid These At All Costs!
Posted On Friday, March 14, 2008 at at 4:20 AM by chairichBy Darnell Hughes
You have probably already noticed or experienced first hand that keeping a conversation going on a date can be like pulling teeth. It takes a little bit of give and take.
When you meet someone for the first time there are a few topics that you should avoid at all costs. It is a well known fact that discussing politics are religion on a first date should be avoided. Bringing up one of these topics could lead to a heated debate and cause the former conversation, now quarrel, to spiral out of control and ruin your chances of a second date.
Depending on where you live these topics may differ. For example, if you live in the Middle East where it is widely known that religion and spirituality are taken very seriously, you may want to avoid those topics when you meet someone new. If you are American there are also certain topics that should be avoided if you want to keep the conversation going. For example, when you first meet someone don't ask them where they were on September 11. Bringing up subjects that are sensitive in nature and evoke strong emotions is not a good segue to a further more intimate conversation.
Politics on the other hand, present a whole new set of issues. People often hold extreme views about which political party they support. Most people have been strong supporters of a particular party for the majority of their life. Often they support the same party that their parents did so they have a long history of supporting that particular party ingrained into their psyche. Any topic which lends itself to statements causing exclusion should be avoided on a date. Focus on what you have in common.
You can never now which topics are sensitive unless you know someone; here are some more that should be avoided to prevent strife and make sure your date goes smoothly.
� Abortion - There is no other topic that creates animosity
� Capital Punishment
� Euthanasia
A good rule of thumb is to keep to safe topics where a friendly debate will be perceived as an innocent deviation of opinions, such as family, friends, work, hobbies, interests and passions. It is imperative that you establish a certain comfort level with your date before you begin to discuss controversial issues. Once this is established, you can discuss these topics with out the fear or ruining your date and leaving on bad terms.
A recent study was conducted to quantify the difference between people who are successful in attracting a mate and those who aren't as fortunate. The results will astonish you! Researchers concluded that on average, men who study and implement techniques taught in dating guides are 74% more likely to get a second date compared to those who didn't.

Where to Meet Beautiful Women - Five Fun Places to Consider
Posted On Monday, March 10, 2008 at at 1:12 PM by chairichBy Gillian Reynolds
Many men have the same idea when it comes to where to meet beautiful women. They flock down to a local bar and nightclub hoping that it will be filled with available lovely ladies. Granted you can almost always find some really great women at a bar, but when you are there with a bunch of other single men, your competition is cut out for you. Consider trying a new approach when it comes to finding a great woman to date. There are many places to meet intelligent, attractive women that you haven't thought of.
A bookstore is one of the best places to meet women. Many women have a fondness for reading and will visit the bookstore just to browse. It's also easy to strike up a conversation in a bookstore. You can ask what she thinks of a certain book or you can ask if she has any recommendations based on the section she's browsing in. Although you may not have thought of the bookstore in the past, when you are considering where to meet beautiful women, put it at the top of your list.
Cooking classes may not be a spot you think of when it comes to where to meet beautiful women, but surprisingly it is. Many singles take cooking classes as a way to improve their culinary prowess and also for the social aspect of it. Quite often the students are paired up, so if you see a woman who catches your eye, maneuver yourself so you are closer to her. Cooking can be great fun and sensual.
Ballroom dancing has become the new "in" activity as of late. There's been this preconceived notion for years that if a man was interested in dancing, he wasn't interested in women. That's all changed and both men and women are embracing the chance to learn this great art form. Many community centers and professional dance studios offer these classes in the evenings and on the weekends now. Sign up for one and you'll not only improve your dancing, but you may meet a beautiful woman too.
Contrary to what a lot of men believe, women love sports. When you are thinking about where to meet beautiful women don't discount the local sports field. If your team is playing, take a friend and instead of watching each and every play, see if you can find a cute woman to focus on. It's easy to strike up a conversation based on what is happening on the field, the ice or the court. A great bonus is that you know right off the bat that she's interested in sports.
The museum is another overlooked place where you can meet beautiful women. Many women love art and will visit the museum alone for an afternoon of relaxation. Brush up on the current showings so you can actually hold a conversation with a woman who piques your interest.
When you are considering where to meet beautiful women, think beyond what you've done in the past. Attractive women are everywhere it's just a matter of getting yourself to the same place they are.
Once you catch the eye of a beautiful woman approach her and strike up a conversation. All those tired old pick-up lines you had in the past need to stay there. Find out what you should say to ensure she can't resist you. Learn more about the intricate art of dating from this Helpful Site!
Do You Have The Right Attitude to Attract Women?
Posted On at at 4:23 AM by chairichBy Terry Leslie
Most men work up an anxiety when approaching a woman.
Once you know what works and what doesn't, you will find that your anxiety will drop and success is on the way.
Ask yourself how many women that you have targeted to become your date that ultimately becomes your friend? Sometimes it seems that the harder you try, the more they are repelled from you.
If you believe that one day all of a sudden, a beautiful woman will just drop in your arms, it's just a dream, that's it! Nothing but a dream! You must take action to make things happen; it doesn't just happen on its own.
Ask yourself if you're a man who has the right attitude? What are your reactions around women?
From speaking to hundreds of men, I have found that being a nice guy doesn't always work, because the woman you were trying to attract ends up being just your friend. However, having said that, you don't have to become a bastard as well.
You must realize that you must add the Mr Nice guy with what she is ultimately seeking, whether it is romance, sexiness, playfulness, excitement, or eroticism. This you must find out. Period.
So don't give up on being Mr Nice just because it hasn't yielded the results you desire. You just need to find out what are the needs of that particular woman you are trying to attract and meet those needs.
This does not mean that you become someone that you are not and then feel very uncomfortable about it. What it does mean is stepping up and becoming a bigger person than what you have been in the past. A kind of self improvement if it may.
To successfully date, you must put your best foot forward if you desire the results. Doing things differently than you may have in the past does not mean that you are not true to yourself. Some may say "this is who I am, if she doesn't like it, then so be it". Ask yourself, if you were looking in as a third party, would you go out with yourself? Don't ever feel that you are manipulating and being someone that you're not, all you are doing is improving yourself.
Think about the woman who tries to attract men everyday. They always try to look there best by applying a face full of make up, with their nails done etc. I'm sure that they don't do this if they were just going to spend a night at home by themselves would they? They are not being deceptive or trying to become another person, all they are doing is trying to show the best of themselves to others.
Men should also do the same. There is no shame in improving yourself and showing the best you have to offer.
In the mean time, Good Luck!

The Smart Guide To Dating - How Not To Waste Your Time In The Dating World
Posted On Sunday, March 9, 2008 at at 4:17 AM by chairichBy Antonia Greco
In my personal quest to find "the one" I have always found the guy who is "the one for right now" who naturally turns out to be "not quite what I had in mind" and then ultimately "why didn't you guys stop me!" Yes, we have all been there, we have all made our share of mistakes, but that is why we can say we learned from experience, right? Or are we destined to repeat the same mistakes over and over?
Welcome! I am by no means a dating guru; in fact, I have never even had a relationship exceed one month in my life! How dare I even write this article! But, like most people in their twenties, I have had my fair share of pleasant and unpleasant experiences in the dating world to speak with conviction.
For years, in addition to dealing with my own impaired judgment, I have watched both my male and female friends alike go through the same kind of dating drama. It makes me sick how stupid and blind we can be in our own personal struggle to relate to the opposite sex. We find ourselves constantly misinterpreting the actions of the other, justifying ill behavior but then -worst of all- we are guilty of repeating the same mistakes over and over with each new person we meet. It's like we want to get hurt!
I am not suggesting that it is possible to live a life of love that is error free, because lets face it, there is no such thing as perfection. However, there are certain dating mistakes that are possible to avoid and worth avoiding.
The following lists focus on what I feel are ten of the most important dating strategies that most of us tend to ignore in our quest to find love (or what not). Bear in mind, it is the everyday stuff that we ignore that always comes back to haunt us.
For the Ladies
1.The man pursues the woman.
It is as simple as that. Women should not be the hunter, but rather the hunted. Men know what they want and will go after what they want. When women initiate contact by calling a guy, they set themselves up to be let down. If you don't believe me, think very hard about a relationship that you initiated and what happened to the relationship. Maybe things went well for a week, or two, maybe even a month, but after that...POOF! This is because men need to be the pursuer-it is the only true way to know whether they are truly interested. If he is not calling you, then he is probably not interested.
2.Avoid hang-ups!
Do not rub salt in your wounds. Sorry to have to use the clich้ on this one, but there is really no better way to put it. Whatever do I mean? Ladies, you know when we think we've moved on from a guy, but then about two months later we decide "Maybe he changed his mind about me" or "Maybe if I call or send him a message, I'll put myself back in his head" NO! There is no excuse for this behavior (alcohol induced or not)! Why? Yes, I will admit, it is fun and entertaining to some extent, but it is a vicious cycle. Don't get hung up on one guy, especially if he's made it clear that he's not worth your time. Hang-ups like these take you two steps back! There are plenty of men out there-no need to stress one! Plus, why would you waste your precious, valuable time on someone who has already slighted you?
3.Two words: OVER-ANALYZATION
Over-analyzing a situation; we are all guilty of doing it on some level - especially those of us that like to think. I encourage thinking but dissecting every word that someone says and analyzing every gesture is torture in the very highest form! Employing bad communication tactics is often the culprit, especially in today's day and age where it has become second nature to use technology as a primary form of communication (i.e. the text message, email). However, no matter what form of communication is being applied, people will continue to baffle one another with impromptu gestures and ambiguous speech. When it comes to certain situations in life, there are a variety of times where one need not know the why part to.
4.Take everything at face value.
"I'll call you" "I want to be with you" Comments such as these mean NOTHING until they happen. Think about it. People like to talk. We are constantly making promises that we never intend to keep and we say things to others because we think it is what they want to hear. Words mean nothing until they are given meaning which of course, is set forth by example.
5.Actions speak louder than words.
This one seems pretty elementary but it's the one we never seem to get right and always try to defend. He didn't call you back when he said he was going to-that's kind of big. Sometimes unforeseen events do arise and it is necessary to cut someone a proverbial piece of slack, but when this happens more than once, especially in the preliminary stages of a relationship, PAY ATTENTION! This is a huge red flag! If someone can't complete a simple chore such as returning a phone call, how do you expect them to respond to larger commitments in the future?
6.Don't expect someone to change.
Never hope for change, because, well, people don't change. If a person has tendencies that you cannot overcome, you need to reexamine your thoughts on where the relationship is going. You should like someone for who they are, not for who you want them to be (weird tendencies and bad habits included).
7.Expecting to build a relationship off of a hook-up = NO!
The scenario: So you meet this guy at a party, and the two of you end up hanging out the entire night. As the evening winds down, things start to progress and before you know it, you are already naked! Oops! You're young, this stuff happens. These are the moments that you will fondly look back on with bittersweet memories when you are older. However, when you start developing feelings for the guy in this scenario and start OBSESSING when he goes MIA after the hook up, don't sit around and wonder why. The physical aspect of a relationship is something to lead up to, not start out at! Relationships should not go backwards! So to those of you out there who have difficulty exercising self-control, avoid physical situations such as the aforementioned. No guy will want to buy the cow when he can get the milk for free!
8.Don't fall for lame excuses!
"Sorry I didn't call, I've been really busy"
So he has had the most horrendous week ever! His cat died, his car was in the shop, he had to stay late at work, his grandma is in the hospital AND he pulled his hamstring at the gym!
9.Put down the phone!
When we like someone, it is usually a natural reaction to want to talk to them, especially if they are not calling us. We abandon all logical ways of thinking and start creating excuses as to why this person is not calling us. Women always want what they cannot have so especially in situations where we feel we are being resisted, it is natural that we try harder. However, the reality of it all is that when we do not make ourselves as available, this is when guys tend to become intrigued. Men love a chase just as much as women do. Don't sell yourself short! [And if they are still not calling, well, I guess it was not meant to be. Move on.]
10.Chalk it up to experience!
One of my most favorite quotes in the world is by Robert Frost. "In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: It goes on." Things happen. Move on. You need to take the lesson that was learned and move forward. Harboring on things that could have happened is pointless. It is impossible to change the past so you may as well learn from it. Some things in life aren't meant to be. There is only one phrase you need to memorize here and that is: "NEXT!"
For the Men
1.Don't play games.
If you like her, call her, pursue her. It is that easy. The time you waste playing games = the time that you are wasting in which you could be getting to know her. It is not about winning or losing or even keeping score (get over yourself). If you are just about having a "commitment free good time" then find yourself a girl with a similar mindset who will sleep with you no strings attached. Do not mess with a person of substance.
2.Initiate a phone call.
The year is now 2008. If you cannot figure out that women like to be pursued, then you are oblivious! DO NOT WAIT FOR HER TO CALL YOU. BEING "SHY" IS NOT AN EXCUSE! Most girls do not buy into this women's lib crap that it is the new thing to call guys and to pursue them, it's weird. When a girl initiates contact first, it changes the dynamics of a relationship before if even begins. Remember: It is one thing for a girl to return your phone call, but to expect her to be the one calling you- that is backwards. Do you guys really want to be undermined by a female?
3.Be a prude.
Most guys do not do this. They are ready to take their clothes off after the first date, maybe even on the first date. Learn to play the prude card. This is a good tactic to try if you really like someone. Since women of today's generation have more control than ever in the bedroom, it is usually in a man's best interest to let her set the pace. By exercising some self-control, this will demonstrate that you are not just in it for some action.
4.Too much too soon
ATTENTION: DO NOT BLOW UP HER PHONE. No one wants to be smothered. It is important to remember that if your calls are less frequent (use judgment) but full bodied and meaningful, you will create a longing. Know where to draw the line. After all, getting to know someone is a process. Enjoy a person- good things should not be rushed! You can never take a relationship to slow, but you always can take it too fast.
5.Be a gentleman. Little gestures go a long way.
This one seems like it would be so easy; Holding a door, offering a jacket, not walking ten feet in front of a girl. Yet, many of you seem not to have mastered the art of basic manners. It has nothing to do with "impressing" a girl but instead, it shows that you have a little something called class and respect (something that is severely lacking in today's generation). It may seem like an old-school ideal, but this one is a good judge of character.
6.Be CONFIDENT!
You may look good, but believe me ,your actions will dictate whether of not you are a solid person. Be who you are and be proud of it. Nothing is more of a turn off then when a guy tries to act like someone or something he's not. Confidence is key. When a person has a good relationship with themselves, it is natural that they will have a good relationship with others. In other words, you need to like you before you can start liking someone else. After all, women are blood hounds-they can sniff out insecurities from a mile away! For example, guys who find the need to boast their salary or even mention it for that matter = INSECURITY (and aside from being an insecurity, it is a really big turn off.)
7.Don't be cheap.
I am not saying that guys should have to foot the bill every time, however, if you ask a girl out, that means you pay. That is a general rule of thumb. Most girls will offer to pay out of kindness-I do this all the time! Half of the time I don't even have my wallet on me! This is not to say that I let a guy pay for every facet of the evening though. Most girls will offer to buy a round of drinks or pick up a parking fee, etc. In this case it is ok to let a girl take care of it, do not argue with her about it. Additionally, if you are ever out with another couple, and even utter the words "separate checks" you may as well just post a sign on your forehead that says "I am cheap!" It isn't rocket science to round the total of a bill and divide it by 2! Suggesting separate checks is extremely tacky and if you are that concerned about money, then maybe you shouldn't be out to dinner.
8.Don't sell yourself.
I once dated this guy that would back up every nice gesture he did by saying "its because I'm a nice guy" (literally every time he did something nice such as pay a bill, or offer his services), and it was such a big turn off, that I would forget what it was that he was even doing nice in the first place. This kind of behavior parallels the whole "actions speak louder than words" idea. There is no need to sell yourself to someone. First of all, if you do a nice deed it should be because you wanted to and because you're a gentleman. There is no need to introduce or close nice gestures with remarks like "because I'm a nice guy." Any girl will notice a nice gesture and will not need it to be brought to her attention. In the event she takes your gentleman-like ways for granted-ditch her and find someone who appreciates them!
9.Be honest. Lying isn't nice.
If you are not that into a girl, you need to tell her. Believe me; ANY girl will respect you more if you are upfront with her. If you don't confront her, then you either have really low self-esteem or loathe the idea of having no one. If you see a girl is into you, and you can't return that same affection, don't be selfish. Additionally, if you don't want to be tied down, say so. When someone gets the wrong idea about you, nine out of ten times it's because you gave them the wrong idea. Moral of the story: If you don't intend on calling her, then don't tell her that you will and get her hopes up.
10.Be prepared to do some work!
Show her that you are interested! This goes back to my favorite rule "actions speak louder than words." No girl wants a lazy guy. I'm not saying that girls should just sit back and relax while the man does all the work. Like anything else in life, it is give and take. However, it is the guy's job to get the ball rolling. Most guys seem to carry the "fear of rejection" gene in which they purposely wuss out of situations. Don't "sissify" yourself! Some situation may require you to take a leap of faith. Just remember: "It is better to have tried and failed then to have never tried at all."
Kiss A Toad And You May Find Your Prince!

In order to find your perfect mate, it may be necessary to date of few suboptimal persons in order to figure out what it is you need from a man. Go for coffee with that colleague that you've had your eye on, grab a bite with a friend and determine what YOU want! If your heart is not into it, where will the relationship lead?
Online dating sites are a useful tool to select what may appear as great candidates. By going for coffee, or grabbing a bite to eat with one or many of these people you will refine your ability to also identify the fakes from the genuine. Further, online dating sites have chat-rooms for specific interest that can help you find a mate with common interest. Many free sites are offered and can help you to break out of your shell and laugh a little, hopefully with another.
Always ensure that when you going out with someone that you met online, that a friend, or family member knows where you are going, and where you will be.
I have shared a number of evenings with quite a few interesting dates... And, each one has taught me a little about who I am, what I am willing to put up with, and also a lot about other people, other cultures, other ways of life. Even if you don't find the love of your life, you can still gain some benefit from dating, and eventually when the time is right, you will find that special someone that makes your heart sing.
Go out, let your hair down and enjoy your life in the warm embrace of another.
It can happen, if only you can allow another in.

Dating Older Women
Posted On Friday, March 7, 2008 at at 7:06 PM by chairichBy Michael Dat
No one takes a second look when a young woman dates an older man. But what about younger men dating older women? Are you spotting raised eyebrows? In this new era, this is no longer a new thing. It is everywhere. However, people still find it queer. But have you ever wondered why men are so interested in dating older women? Older does not refer to 1 or 2 years age gap mind you. She can be 10 years his senior and he can still fall head over heals for her. What is the secret attraction actually?
Some of these older women are just singles, while some may be divorcees. Some women do not find the idea of dating a younger man appealing, probably due to the concerns that she have regarding her attractiveness. It is reported that intimacy affects age difference greatly. While some older women may look young and healthy, they still fear of the competition that they might face with the naturally younger women as time pass by.
Dating older women comes with a price. While it is natural for the man to want to experience of fathering a child, the older women would usually reject the idea. The reason could simply be because her biological clock has run out or, maybe this is a second marriage for her and she already has children.
Next comes the pressure that society puts on the couple. And not to mention the internal pressures that come form family and friends who might not really favor that form of relationship. This in return put strain on the couple's relationship.
Despite all these hardships that the couple might face, the thrill of dating still lies there. Most of the time, the reason why men prefer dating older women is because he believes that she is worldlier because she knew herself sexually and emotionally. The man would find it easier for him and he would not need to figure out much.
Other research also included that dating with older women provides some kind of financial freedom. While last decade, man is considered the sole bread winner, now by dating with an older women who has a career, the man no longer have to worry about his finance. He can even pursue his dreams without worrying about the house bills.
Every woman needs some kind of security. Emotionally, physically and financially. The reason why older women date younger men is because of the fact that younger men are less jaded in life. They are more wild and energetic. Hence, giving the older women the opportunity to feel young again. Not to mention, these young men are definitely more adventurous than the older folks.
While some might think that dating older women is like dating your own mum, it is not necessarily true! Believe it or not, many older women enjoy mentoring their partner. Partly because she feels that she is more experienced as compared to the younger ladies.
As a wrap, dating older women can be an enriching experience. Despite the age difference, it can be as good as dating younger ones. While the younger ladies tend to be less committed to a relationship, the older women would be more mature and would be more than ready to settle down with commitment in their hands.
Young or old? It's your choice.

Tips on Dating - The Secret of Making Girls Like You!
Posted On at at 11:46 AM by chairichBy Nathan Reed
Quite some time ago I've seen this guy who was just amazing with girls. Basically every hot girl liked him. And the interesting thing with him was that he wasn't good looking at all.
This is why I started observing guys that were really good with girls but I've totally ignored the fact that some of them were good looking. I've started believing that the looks have little to do with how attractive are we to girls.
Because if my friend wasn't attracting them with his looks, what else is there? And yes, it's the mind. It's the personality. And this is where a lot of guys make a mistake, when they think that money, good clothes and a great body will attract women all by themselves.
Why do you think that a lot of millionaires use dating companies to find girls? Why do you think that one of my rich friends with a brand new BMW can't get a girlfriend? Why do you think that some body-builders say that girls are literally afraid of them?
It's because the possessions and looks alone are not enough.
Don't get me wrong, I do believe and I know that these things help. But without a strong and attractive personality to back it up very rare girls will find them attractive. Girls often say that good looking guys who don't have an attractive personalty are "pretty boys without substance".
So the secret to getting successful with women is not becoming a rock star or a body builder but to work on your personality and become confident and comfortable in your own skin. And when you will do that the results will follow instantly.

How to Win Your Girlfriend's Heart Back Now
Posted On at at 9:57 AM by chairichDo you want to win your girlfriend back? Okay, never mind, I know that you do, otherwise, why would you be reading this? Are you willing to do what it takes? That is the far better question. Winning your girl's heart back is an uphill battle. You will need to be determined and tactical in all your moves, but most of all you need to be sincere.
Show her you care about her without being pushy.
Women do not like a pushy guy. Don't push the issue of getting back together; instead show her you care about her no matter what happens. This means accepting things as they come. If she is not ready to talk to you yet, then let it be. If she is not ready to meet up with you then leave the ball in her court. Accept the position you are in and respect her boundaries.
Show her the new and improved you.
I say it a lot, and there is a reason for it. Change is the biggest determining factor in a relationship either working or breaking. Change is essential to growth, growth as an individual and growth as a couple. If there is something that needs to change in your relationship, then you need to address it. Take care of it in the beginning before it grows into a larger problem. Once you have been able to fix the problem, then show that change to her. Show it to her in your actions not your words and believe me she will take notice of it.
Gaining your ex's trust again and winning her heart back is a tough thing to do. I won't say that it is easy, but it is not impossible. Women like to feel in control of situations; once they lose that control it is easier for them to detach themselves from a situation. Being pushy takes that control away. In conjunction, women want to see change in order for them to risk getting hurt again. Show them that change and they will more than likely be willing to take that risk with you.
Respecting her boundaries and being sincere about your actions is the first step to winning her heart back. There are many more steps that you will need to take, but in time you will be able to get there. Just make sure you are taking the correct ones.
