Dating Tips for Shy Men

You think of yourself as a guy who seems to have not gotten over his awkward stage. When it comes to dating, you are still as awkward as any teenager out there, getting dumped easily after a single night out with a girl. Dating becomes a hard task for you and you are now trying to shy away from ever dating for fear of getting dumped again. Well, worry no more, dude. Here are some dating tips that will help you get past the awkward stage:

1. Calm yourself.
You don't want your date to touch your clammy hands, or would you? It's not that you have hyperhidrosis or someone who suffers from excessive sweating. You get clammy and sweaty hands because you're anxious. Try to calm yourself before and especially during a date. Don't think of a date as a date; instead, think of it as a chance for you to gain friends, women friends. This way, you remove any expectations from yourself and won't pressure you to impress your date much. When you're calm, you will say the right words at the right time. And when you are calm, you will ooze with self-confidence and appeal.

2. Fix your voice.
Men's voices should be booming when angry and modulated and smooth when in a casual conversation. This means that your voice shouldn't squawk, most especially when you're in front of a woman that you like. You can do this by practicing at home. Orient the people in your home that the new you has a great sounding voice. This is to make your voice change natural and without you changing how you sound when you're home and outside of home with other people. A modulated voice exudes an aura of maturity. Women like mature men, not in looks but how he sounds.

3. Learn how to smile.
Oh, stop showing your gums when you smile. It might look cute when you were eight, but you're not eight anymore. Your smile should be something that would send thrilling chills down on a woman's spine and make her breathing be labored. Practice smiling in front of your mirror. Practice all sorts of smile that you can make: a half-smile, a full smile, a laughing smile and a naughty grin. Movie stars do it, why wouldn't you? When doing your 'new' smile, it might feel unnatural or uncomfortable at first. It's normal. Just do what you've practiced. In no time at all, it'll become your natural smile.

How to Change Your Looks to be a Hot Guy

There's a formula to be THAT hot guy. A movie star isn't born to be the hunky actor that women drool over. He is packaged by the media outfit and his handler to be a hunk, a sex symbol and a cool guy. You can so, too. Do a couple of changes in your looks and you're all set.

1. Keep your wardrobe simple.
Yes, you value your individuality. You're okay with your over-sized black T-shirt with insignia of your favorite rock band, your torn jeans and your dirty, Converse shoes. You love who you are and your mother loves who you have become. However, you should accept the fact that it's not your mom who you would be hanging out with or would spend a night with canoodling. It's a woman, a beautiful woman and in all honesty, wouldn't dig what you wear. Change your wardrobe with something that would flatter what you have and hide the imperfections in your body. It wouldn't hurt you if you try to buy a nice black, collared jacket from Arrows and mix it up with more casual clothes, say a plain white shirt and clean, fitting, straight-cut jeans. And also, reserve your Converse shoes at home. When you go out to chill out in bars, wear your black, leather shoes.

2. Get at haircut that flatters.
If you have time, go to your nearest salon and ask a hairstylist of a haircut that would flatter your facial shape and structure. Even in men, hair is a crowning glory. If you're one of the unfortunate few who are losing hair, don't lose heart. Go bald all the way! Instead of combing it over on the side (and making you look like Donald Trump), going bald tells women that you don't care about how you look. You are confident and your balding head won't affect your sense of security and your belief in yourself.

3. Avoid extra or excessive bodily movements.
If you're sorry or a bit shy, stop scratching your head. You don't need to look pathetically sorry for what you did or for your embarrassment. Avoid these types of unnecessary bodily movements. Avoid the excessive once, too, say the hand movements while talking or making a point. Be aware of how you react and move in front of a woman. Women find an 'awkward' guy repulsive. Only teenagers get clumsy in front of a woman. Get yourself together and learn how to calculate your movements when with her. It's not easy to do this but with practice and keen sense of self-observation, you'll turn your loser looks into a suave one.

Why Do Some Pick Up Strategies Work?

We've seen in movies how Hugh Grant makes an impression to Julia Roberts and how the latter cracks up to former's pick up lines. You would say: "It's easy for them. They are good looking". They can use the lamest pick up lines ever and still get the woman they want." Although it's true that looks may have a great contribution to getting the woman you want, still, there are other contributing factors why some pick up strategies work. "Is it hot in here, or is it me?"

You've heard this pick up line a number of times in comedic and romantic movies. Many men have used this line and you might think that it has been so used up that it wouldn't work anymore. You might get surprise with this information: many men claim that this overused line still works for them. What is it about pick up lines that make them work? What is it about some that make it oh-so-lame? According to some pick up artist gurus, it is not about the pick up lines per se, but in the way a man delivers it. Considerations to make are the appropriateness of the language to the place, situation and current circumstances. This means that "Is it hot in here, or is it me?" line won't work if you're picking up a nice lady outdoors, during winter. It would sound absurd. Deliver it smoothly.

As mentioned, delivery is the main reason why a pick up line works and don't work. If you mumble while saying your lines, you might not get the attention of the woman you're picking up. Or if you deliver the lines as though you were reciting something straight from the idiot board, you might receive an unfavorable squint from the woman and leave you right there and then without even batting an eyelash. Say your pick up lines naturally, as though you were teasing her. Use the power of side glances and sly grin as you deliver your lines.

The way you look at her is more important to her than whatever it is that you're telling her. In sum, don't focus yourself in making up the best or the wittiest pick up lines ever. Use body language, facial expressions and voice intonation to show a woman your maturity, intelligence, charm and wit. Lines are just lines. They won't matter much if you don't deliver them well. Use your best tone and voice to tell a lady that she is desired and found by you to be utterly gorgeous.

Three Secrets To Make Women Intoxicated By You

In a bar, there are two groups of men: those who don't get even a glance from girls and those who have a throng of girls, throwing themselves literally on these men. If you belong to the first group, you might need to know these 3 secrets to make women intoxicated by you:

1. Believe you're irresistible.
Men who believe they are irresistible look irresistible. It's all about psyching yourself up. In sales, the top sellers are the ones who employ 'self brainwashing.' It's a method in marketing wherein you brainwash yourself to be the top salesman there is and that you can make sales that are of the top of the charts. This works in the irresistible department. If you tell yourself over and over in front of the mirror that you're appealing and you have the thing or the "it" that would make women moan in delight, in no time at all you will be that person. In life, things are just about believing in what you can do and overcoming difficulties about things you can't do. If you think you're not appealing, start writing in your notebook that you are. And every time you retire to bed, tell yourself that in the coming months, you will finally meet and get the woman of your dreams and that she'll be sleeping in your bed, laying snugly beside you.

2. Be laid back and casual.
Have you noticed in bars that men who are laid back and casual gets the prettiest girl in the room? In fact, all the pretty girls are throwing themselves at him. Men who seem not to notice women are the type of men that most women like. Women fall for a guy who doesn't seem to care about women and want to mind his own business. Practice this behavior. Look at women but don't stare at them. Focus more on your drink rather than them swinging their hips in tune to the music. For them, getting the tiniest look from a laid back guy means a lot.

3. Don't overdo your words.
Be natural when talking to women. In fact, the lesser you talk, the better. Talking less prevents you from committing a blunder. Also, limit your praises. Women would feel being lied to if they heard you say "you look beautiful" the 10th time in a single night. If it's not a total lie, it might be that you're obsessed with her. Let your eyes speak for you. If she really looks spectacular that night, tell her with your appreciative looks.

Pick Up Tips For The Dateless

If you've been dateless for a while, you might have difficulty finding a new prospect, or picking up a woman in a bar or anywhere else for that matter. However, being dateless doesn't necessarily mean you should feel like a totally loser. Gather your wits together and try these awesome pick up tips and get yourself a gorgeous date. Apparently women love when men ignore them. I don't really understand it, but hey who knows. I know one thing they do like and that's men that are "stoic".

Bars or nightclubs or what I like to call meat markets are the best place to pick up single and available women. It's the best place to get started especially if you've been out of the dating loop for a while because there are tons of different women!

You may go with friends and do your own thing once inside the bar, or you may also go alone. Once inside the bar, try your best to focus your attention to your drink and not on women. You may do your area 'scanning' discreetly, and use your peripheral vision to spot oncoming prospects.

Women are attracted to men who seem to be 'disinterested' to women. Sounds ridiculous, right? But sometimes, that's how women psych works -- ridiculous and incredible. But women have a rationale behind this behavior. They contend that men who ignore women are those who are more mature and aren't there to merely look for a one night stand.

Go straight up to the bar and just smile. If you've spotted the girl of your choice, smile at her when you've got the chance to get her attention and your gaze has crossed. This strategy is most effective when a girl is with some friends. Your smile is a signal that you're interested to her. And if she's interested too, she'll leave her friends and join you at the bar.

The tip here to make this strategy works is to give her a soft yet quick smile, then return to whatever you're drinking as though minding your own business. You may check up with her once in a while, to see if she's looking back. Just make sure that once you throw that smile at her, you're not throwing the same smile to anybody else, especially to another woman.

If you're checking out on her, she's likewise checking out on you, making sure that she really got your interest and you're not there simply to pick up any kind of woman.

It's easier if she's at the bar. All you have to do is smile at her and go back to your drinks. Wait for a couple of minutes and she'll start the conversation.

Relationship Success Strategies

I have a confession: I was confronted by a friend this past week. She suggested that I might possibly be living more from my head than my heart.

She wanted to know where all the successful relationships were and was asking me, since I am THE REALationship Coach (That's pretty much the way she said it, too!) to show her evidence that these happy and successful relationships really existed.

She was angry. She was hurt. She was sick and tired of the hell of relationship break-up.

She was "mad as hell and wasn't going to take it anymore"!!

It was quite a conversation as I had to use my verbal Tai Chi to dodge her sarcastic and angry jabs, her cynical hooks and her negative mindset about relationship success being more like pie in the sky.

I can't say I blame her one bit. She's right. Where are those relationships?

Yes, I do get to see many successful relationships, but that is mostly because of what I do. But in everyday life, where are they?

Sure, there are many people who seem to be content with their relationships, but underneath their superficial smiles and socially correct acts, the truth is, they are far from fulfilled.

In fact, many of these people feel quite empty. That's why they fill their lives with work, exercise, TV, sports, kids, and even drugs and alcohol. Not that most of those activities are necessarily bad, but too often they are used as distractions and artificial fillers for what is lacking in their primary relationships.

And then there is the all mighty addictive energy. Addiction feeds on emptiness. It will come in and fill any void in your life faster than you say Kalamazoo (I'm originally from Michigan and this is a city there...no comments!!).

This is the hell. It is hell when you've succumbed to addictive energy and are at it's mercy.

It's even more hellish when you don't even realize it. But that is the power of addiction.

Addiction will lay still, like a snake in the grass, and lure you into it's deceptive energy. How?

All addictive behavior feels good, at least at first. If it doesn't feel good, it can't be addictive.

Would you like to know the #1 addiction? You!

Yes, you addicted to you (Me too, as we are all susceptible). We get so caught up in how we look, what others might be thinking about us, how little we have, how bad the future might be, what are other people might be saying about us, how well did we do and how much we have, that we don't even stay connected to life.

And just like any addictive pattern, it will grow and grow until it rules, and ruins, your life.

So, what's the solution? The Heart. Yes, the Heart.

When you stay connected to your Heart, you stay connected to your intuition, your Spirit and your true Self. Perhaps the biggest challenge is to listen to your Heart and to trust it.

Your Heart will also give the truest of self-expression and truth. Your truth. After all, that is all that really matters for you.

But addiction will try to get you to doubt yourself and second-guess yourself, buy into imaginary fear and worry about how others may respond to your truth.

Addiction will also try to convince that everything is okay when, at the same time, your Heart knows otherwise.

Addiction tries to "protect" you from pain. But in the end, it causes more pain than what it originally was trying to protect you from.

Henceforth is THE challenge. Be true to you at your core, in your Heart of Hearts, or be swayed by the deception of addiction.

Want a solid, lasting, amazingly fulfilling and intimate relationship? Stay connected with your Heart. Trust it. Love it. Respect it. Protect it. Don't leave home (ever) without it.

And I thank my friend for getting in my face about all this. I needed that.

Now I'm getting in your face. Do I need to say any more?

Successful First Date Tips

One of the reasons why first dates can be tricky is the because of the pressure we put on ourselves under to create a good impression. If we can relax then we can stop thinking about what to say next; we can pay attention to what our date is saying. How cool is that?

Here are some useful tips which may help you change the way you look at dating and help take the pressure off yourself:

-Neither your date's house nor yours is an ideal place for meeting. Similarly seeking the company of others to act as a chaperone is also not a good idea. An open, busy place such as a restaurant, a bar or a mall is the safest and best place for any first meeting. Alternatively, why not meet during the day? If you can meet in the city or town centre then you could maybe become part of activity that is going on. For example a festival of some kind and it'll give you something to talk about right off the bat.

-When going to the chosen venue you should always drive your own car. This way your date does not have to pick you up and know where you live and you know that you have a vehicle handy if you need to make a quick getaway.

-Always try to make your dating session simple and short. First dates will often make you nervous. Nervous conditions and complicated plans will not go hand in hand. Make your dating enjoyable and smooth.

-Women should take care to wear something which is not provocative or sexy. In fact it is an old concept, but care should be taken with the first impression. Your date has nothing more to go on than your appearance and how you behave. It is said that first impressions are made in the first few seconds of a meeting. Also, women are far more tuned into body language than men. So men, if you have any nervous ticks or twitches, control them.

-Always wear clothing which makes you confident and that you are comfortable with so you are not preoccupied with a too-tight waistline or a necktie that feels like you are being strangled. It is most important that you should feel comfortable enough to concentrate on the other person in front of you. The clothing you wear should also be co-ordinated and look cool. If in doubt ask a shop assistant of a clothing store on what looks good on you. It's true they will want the sale, but most will also be willing to help as well.

-You should always be specific about the place of the date. This will enable you to plan ahead and also help to choose suitable clothing for the situation. Wearing cocktail attire to a fast food place will definitely will be uncomfortable. Guys the woman here is probably expecting you to decide where to go. So be decisive.

-And most important of all, stay in control by not drinking too much alcohol. In addition to becoming vulnerable to your surroundings, you also create a bad impression. Save the drinking until you're more sure of each other and your surroundings are safer. For women, tell a friend where you'll be.

Dating Again After A Breakup

When we break up with someone we always say that we will never date again, that we just never want to experience the heart break that comes with the end of a relationship.

These are words that we have all said or thought at some time in the past, but inevitably we put our broken heart aside and we jump back on the proverbial horse again and get back into dating. After a breakup you may be hesitant to start dating again or you may feel like you have to tread softly and this is okay. You can help to make the process of getting back out there easier by telling yourself:

You're not looking to replace your ex
You just want to have a good time you aren't looking for a serious relationship
You deserve to go out and have fun
Being out and about will make you feel better about yourself

Your conversations while out should not mention or focus on your ex
You can learn to love again
Everyone gets hurt and everyone deserves to date again
You may meet some people who will make getting over your ex a lot easier
Getting out will brighten your spirits
You have a right to have fun even after a nasty breakup

These are some simple statements that you can tell yourself so you can get back out there with confidence. Many people feel like they shouldn't be going out after a bad break up or that they shouldn't be worried about dating again because they'll never love again, but this is the wrong approach. You need to believe in the process of healing and also the possibility that you will meet someone who is so much better for you than your ex ever was. If nothing else, getting out of the house and mingling with other people will allow you to have fun and take your mind off of your broken heart.

Don't make dating again all about your ex though, make it about you. Too many people focus on showing up their ex or making it obvious that they have moved on and there is nothing less attractive than someone who is trying to stick it to their ex. Make dating again about you and your entitlement to be happy.

This will ensure that you have a good time while you are out and that you are truly out there and having fun for the right, instead of the wrong, reasons. Dating should be fun and should be a way to explore new facets of your personality while moving away from the past and toward the future, so get out there and have some fun and leave your ex and that relationship behind you.

A Successful Blind Date Top Tips

The first point to bear in mind about a blind date, is to beat around the bush. Do not just go on a blind date without any basic details or information on the person you wish to date. Plan your blind date procedure a few days ahead and let the plans go around in your mind so that you know what to do and how to deal with situations that may arise. Do not just trust your blind date completely and do not entrust your whole evening or your life in the hands of an unknown person.

If the blind date knows someone who you know well or has been set up by a person you know well, then there is a much larger element of trust there. If your blind date is someone you've met on the internet, then find out as much as you can about your date until you instinctively feel comfortable spending some time with this person.

Instead of making very fancy and elaborate plans on your very first blind date, it is far safer to plan your dating in a casual and crowded place where you both can have a relaxed conversation and be comfortable enough to share one another's views. Besides ensuring your safety, casual dating will also help both of you to get to know one another better. Also in a crowded or a cool place you should have plenty of subjects to talk about i.e. your environment. This helps steer the conversation away from the formal topics of where did you go to school, what did you study and the like.

Try to keep the blind date informal and do not over dress for the occasion. For a blind date you don't need to turn up wearing formal wear but you should not turn up in gym clothes either. Show some taste in dressing; keep it casual and smart. Keep all your special clothes, till say after two or three dates. And men should save their suits for their wedding day. Aim to strike a good balance and create a good lasting impression.

However best you prepare for your blind date it still might not go as good as you would have liked. The chemistry between you and your date might not work well but that doesn't mean you cannot trust or find the person interesting. It might just be a bad day for either or both of you. Keep your mind open, never pass judgement and don't be too rigid. It's easy to feel deflated if the date doesn't go well; the time investment and maybe even the financial investment, not to mention the hope. If you do get on really well, then you'll want to get together again. This is where you start playing the game of should I call her tomorrow or the day after. The conventional wisdom is not to arrange a next date at the end of the first of the date; to leave them wanting more. But this will be your call.

From Dating Loser to an Irresistible Guy

It's fine to get rejected once. But thrice in a row? That's altogether inexcusable. You should have done something to yourself before you let yourself be dumped three times in a row. Surely, the guy behind your getting (you) dumped looks hunky and cool, but it's not an excuse that you should make to yourself. Implement a plan of action now! Go and transform yourself into a charismatic guy.

1. Regulate your voice.
Try to sound more mature than your age. If you could modulate your voice a nick deeper, the better. A low baritone voice is one of the qualities in men that many women seek. Women detest immature sounding men with lots of errs and uhms when stringing along sentences. When you speak, modulate and speak clearly. Remove unnecessary idiosyncrasies.

2. Practice the movement of "cool" guys.
Cool guys move around less and smoothly. Practice it at home. Try not to slouch and practice the "cool" stance by watching the movements of "cool" guys in the bar or of movie stars who are considered sexy and appealing such as Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Hugh Jackman.

3. Learn how to stare "nicely."
It's alright to stare, but not much. You might scare women off. Staring nicely here means you should look at a woman's eyes for a couple of seconds, hold it and then release it before she does. Repeat and rinse and stop on the fourth time. Get cues from the woman's body language. If she looks uneasy with you making an eye contact with her, stop with your first staring attempt. Let an hour go by without you looking at her. With this tactic, there's a 99% probability that you will see sparkle in her eyes the next time you look at her.

4. Cut the crap out of conversation.
When conversation starts between you and a beautiful woman, don't stumble yourself by giving her praises that she would eventually get tired of. Women love compliments but hate an overzealous guy who doesn't know how to keep a conversation entertaining and instead adorns his dialogue with flowery praises.

Also, don't be the "very intelligent" guy in the house. Yes, you're a magna cum laude, but don't be a know-it-all and make a woman feel as though she's unintelligent. Once you're together, she'd know how intelligent you are and you don't need to flaunt it the first time you meet or dine out together.

How To Pick Up Beautiful Women

Perhaps, this question always plagued you. "How to pick up beautiful women?"

Well, let me ask you this question instead. "What comes to your mind whenever you see a beautiful woman?"

If you are like most guys, you will probably be fantasizing about how she is attracted to you and how confident you are etc...

But when it comes time to take action and approach her, you probably hesitated. Well, what is she rejects me? I totally understand that situation because I have been there too.

Perhaps, you will become more successful with women if you are equipped with these 3 powerful weapons.

1) Confidence

Nothing attract a woman more than a brimming confidence. Don't believe me? Ever wonder why so many women fall for jerks?

Ok, before you think you have to be a jerk to attract women, well, you don't have to. You do not have to behave like a jerk to show your confidence. By it will be helpful to go into the mind of confident guys.

What you need to know is that confident men are not afraid to do whatever they want. They are not worried about other people's opinions of them. Of course, we won't be able to cover everything about confidence in this article.

There are many good resources out there that will teach you how to become more confident.

2) Your Appearance

By appearance, it doesn't mean you have to go to the gym and build your muscles. Though it can help if you are a bit skinny like me.

What I meant by appearance is through the way you dress. You don't have to dress like a millionaire or like a model. But you should at least bother to comb your hair and look presentable and clean. And this is definitely something you can do within minutes.

Sometimes, it really puzzles me. A guy will simply dress in shorts to meet a girl for the first time.

3) Your Sense Of Humor

Alright, not every guy is humorous. Or they may suddenly lose their humor in front of a beautiful woman. But the good news is humor can be practiced. Humor can be perfected.

And one warning here. Don't ever attempt to tell lame joke. Chances are, she will feel awkward and might just try to have a chuckle or two, just to appear polite. You certainly do not want to look like a fool. That's what I used to do anyway. You do not want to fall into the same trap as I did.

Tips For Effective Dating

You got the chance to have your long-time crush to be your date on your Prom Night. You did not know what to do. Well, here are some helpful tips that you might use to impress your date and get to know her a bit more.

First, before that special night, you have got to do some preparations. Like, grooming yourself up to make yourself presentable and likable to your date. Get your hair done, get some manicure. Even guys need to be vain at some point in time. Rent a suit or tuxedo that you are to wear, if you can afford to have custom tailored suit why not have one? It is your time to shine. Prom nights happen only once. Do not forget to clean your shoes or buy a new pair. It is not bad to spend some dime for yourself.

Next, the flowers, of course the flowers! Do not ever forget the flowers that you are to give your date. Pick flowers that are soothing to the eyes.

Then prepare the RIDE. Of course you are to pick your date up the doorsteps of her residence. It gives a good impression to the parents to show that you are man enough to cross their gate. If you own a car, well good for you. If you don't, hmm maybe you can borrow your dad's or your mom's even just for this night. But you got to remember to tidy it up. You don't want to turn her off with your car, don't you?

Most importantly, your manners. Be a GENTLEMAN. Applying this trait ensures a next date. This will also show that you pretty much are mature enough to handle relationships. This will give a glimpse of your true personality. Don't forget to guide her in the way to car, open the door for her. It is not polite to stare at her, so just try to resist staring at her will you? Do not take advantage of her being a woman. You have to pay her some respect. As they always say, respect begets respect. By showing that you are a true gentleman, you can easily gain her trust. She will come to think that you are a decent and trustworthy man. Do not act assuming. Girls hate it.

Next, while in the party. You got to make her feel like a princess. Serve her her drinks. Ask her to dance, in a polite manner. Do not try so hard, I mean you have act as yourself. Do not try to show her the person whom you are not. Also, do not try to be so over-protective, she is not your girl in the first place. If at some point, someone asked her to dance and she agreed, do not block their way or act foolish. Don't act like a kid who dropped his candy and all over it.

Lastly, when the party is over. You got to drive her home safely. So, never ever forget to thank her for the night. Say that you had a wonderful evening with her. That you enjoyed every minute of it. And ask her how she felt. This could start a whole level of friendship between you and your crush.

Hope that this have helped you.

Reach out to touch her arm or sleeve to emphasize a point. Put an arm around her back when walking together. Gently touch her knee while watching an event together. All of these actions show your interest as well as your romantic side.

To further show how romantic you are, do silly things like placing a flower in her hair or giving her a simple present 'just because' that reminds you specifically of her.

Stop! Instead, now is the time to really make a woman feel special. The more she feels like you are respecting her and really getting into her, the more likely it will be that she goes from being friend to lover.

Step 2: It really is all about your confidence. If you don't approach a woman with confidence, how will she ever take you seriously?

Give yourself enough time. Better yet, give her enough time. Rushing along will simply make everyone feel uncomfortable. Instead, feel the pace of your involvement by reading the signs she's giving.

Step 5: Once you've made an intellectual collection and gotten to the point of feeling comfortable with one another, it's time to show that you know how to seduce any woman.

Use your body language and conversation to let her know how interested you are. Flirt and touch her frequently to reinforce this desire. Make sure she knows that she's the center of your world right now. If you've laid the groundwork well and don't come off as being over the top, you'll have seduced her in no time at all!

Flirting Is An Art

Have you ever been having fun flirting with someone and then just as quickly as it all started it stops? This can be a really confusing experience, especially when you were excited about the connection that you had made with someone.

What do you do now? How do you respond to the silence or the lack of flirting that is now occurring? It can be a bit confusing, but don't beat yourself up about it. Flirting is not a science, it is an art and unfortunately your flirting may not be right for everyone that you come into contact with. From time to time flirting can go wrong, it happens to the best of us.

There is no way to really know what happened. A few things could have actually happened. Perhaps the person you were flirt with suddenly got busy and just does not have the time or energy to flirt with you at this point. This may be especially true if you were communicating by text message or email. Give them a few days and see if they don't get back in touch with you before you assume that something went wrong.

The person that you were flirting with may feel as though they were moving too fast and they backed off so that things don't continue. When you were the last to make a flirty move, allow for the ball to stay in their court. If they begin flirting with you again, simply pick up where they leave off, but don't push it. They have to be comfortable with the flirt for it to go anywhere.

You may have gone too far or read too much into your communications or interactions. It is difficult to flirt within the comfort levels of others when you do not know them well. You may have been too forward or just seemed too needy. People don't always know how to respond to those that are flirting with them, and you may have unknowingly been pushing them away by coming on too strong.

Every now and again flirt does go wrong, but it doesn't mean that it won't work the next time around. Don't waste your time worrying about what went wrong or if you can rectify the situation. If someone doesn't respond to your flirty nature there will be someone who does. If you feel an apology is necessary or you would like to talk to the person about it, be prepared for awkwardness.

There is nothing worse than saying, "I'm sorry if my flirting offended you." and someone saying in response, "I didn't realize you were even flirting with me." If you flirt with someone and they do not pursue the relationship, many times it is just better to leave the situation alone and hope that it resolves itself.

Simple But Important Dating Tips for Men

Have you been out on a few really bad dates lately and you are not sure what gives? Bad dates seem to come in multiples and many times it feels as though it is a process that we cannot stop on our own. While it may have just been coincidence, you may need to get some things in order on your end of the deal, too. If you are sure that you are always putting your best foot forward you will likely find that the dating process goes a lot more smoothly. There are some really simple dating tips that every guy could benefit from including:

Buy some new clothes. Many women are turned off because a man does not know how to dress to impress. When you come to a date dressed like you just rolled out of bed she will think you are either lazy or not respectful or interested enough in her to dress more appropriately. You don't have to buy a suit but buy some nice clothes that will make you look nice and let her know that you care to be there.

Get your hair cut. Sounds simple but many guys don't follow this basic rule. The biggest turn off to a lot of women are men who do not understand the importance of good hygiene. Keep your head and facial hair trimmed and make sure that you always smell good. You don't have to take a bath in cologne, but make sure you don't reek of body odor, either.

Get the job you want. What does this have to do with dating? Everything! First and foremost, when you have a job that you like you will be a happier person and this will translate to a good dating scenario. Also, a woman generally likes a man who has a stable job and has a good work ethic.

Be sure that you are knowledgeable about current affairs. You may think that what is going on in the world today doesn't affect you, but it does, and your date may very well think you are an idiot if you cannot talk about the current news topics. Buy a paper once a week and especially on the morning of date night's so you keep abreast of important issues.

Don't let a woman think that sports come before her. You can like sports, you can love sports, but the minute a woman thinks that sports come before her she tunes out. If you mention sports and she is not interested, then find other things to talk about. You can love sports and still keep a woman, you just have to be willing to find that balance.

These are some great tips that just about any man can benefit from. Whether you are newly single, just on the dating scene, or have been dating for years you will find that these seemingly simple dating tips really can turn your love life around in a hurry. Put an end to those lousy dates by following these simple tips, you may be surprised how fast these simple things really turn your dating life around!

Do You Really Want Your Ex Back

What I am trying to get at here is abuse. Sometimes it is hard to detect because our judgment has been clouded. There are three types of abuse: physical, mental and verbal. If you think you are a victim of abuse, then I hope this will prove to be of value to you.

Physical abuse is obviously the most common, and well as the most dangerous. If your ex has ever hit or shoved you, or thrown things at you, you need to seek help immediately. This is nothing to play around with, and if your ex has hit you once, it is a pretty much guarantee that it will happen again and again. This type of aggressive behavior is unacceptable and no one deserves to be treated this way.

Mental abuse can be deadly in a way that it can tear your self-esteem down, and convince you that you are not worthy. This type of person will torment you and lead you to believe that no one in his or her right mind would ever want you. You must understand that this is their own insecurity speaking.

Some of the characteristics of the person who is mentally abusive would be the possessive and controlling person. Often mental abuse is not detected until later on in the relationship. When we are in love, we have a foggy perception of things, and we tend to make up excuses for the other person, or perhaps we just get comfortable and we overlook things.

Some forms of mental abuse are not quite as obvious as others, for example, being judgmental and critical, of not just you, but your friends and family as well. Being critical of you, everything about you, your hair, nails, clothing, your size, the cleanliness of your home, your car.

Being judgmental of your friends and family. If your ex judges people around you, they are probably judging you as well, and in my opinion, it is wrong to judge, critcize and condemn other people, and you want to steer far away from this.

The last one is pretty obvious, if your ex is the type to scream and yell and call you names, you may want to re-think your situation, to determine whether or not you even want to get your ex back.

Most often, the person who is verbally abusive will belittle you, not only to you, but also in front of your family and friends. Pay close attention to how they talk to you and about you especially in front of your family and friends. If they are saying unkind things about you or to you, do some serious soul searching before you attempt to get back with your ex.
Everyone deserves to be happy, it is your birth right, so claim it!

If you have noticed any of the 3 types of abuse in your relationship with your ex, take my advise and do some serious soul searching. We are only put here on this earth one time, and it is much easier to be happy with who you are with.

For the ones that have not noticed any of the above, I am very happy for you and I would recommend you read more below on about how to get your ex back. Word of cautious, this stuff will blow your mind away. Not the typical information that you hear.

Casual Dating - Dating Just To Have Fun

If you are like a lot of people you like to spend time with others but you aren't necessarily looking to have a long term relationship. This can be a great way to date because you get to spend time with some really interesting people but you don't have any responsibility or commitment to them other than to show them a good time for the night. While keeping this casual when dating may be exactly what you want to do, you may find that it is more difficult to find people who feel the same day.

Casual dating is the act of dating just to have fun, with no desire for commitment or moving forward with the people that you spend time with. There's nothing wrong with dating this way and that is why it has become really popular. Who said you had to date just in an attempt to find a relationship? You don't have to, you can date just to have fun. Sure, you can date the same people each time, as long as you both know that the interaction is not leading to anything more serious or committed.

The problem with this type of dating is that the people you go out with may say that they are not looking for anything serious but you'll soon find that they are. A lot of people think that casual dating is a great idea for them, but when they start actually participating in this type of dating they begin to want to get closer to the people they are with, making for some awkward moments.

There are also those people who say that they want to keep it casual but they also want to make sure that you aren't dating anyone else! This is not casual dating and if you find someone like this you need to explain to them what your goals for dating are, and that is just to have a good time with the person that you are with. Let them know that while you like them, you cannot commit to them.

This is not to say that there are not people out there who are looking for the same thing you are. There are a lot of them, you just have to be clear about what you are looking for up front. When you tell the people that you date right away that you are not looking for anything serious and that you like to keep things really casual you may find that you thin the herd a little bit so you don't have to suffer through any of those awkward moments or clingy dates later on down the road.

What To Do When You Are Dating A Shy Man

There is something exciting and mysterious about a shy man. You may find that you are very attracted to him, and then nothing. Shy men can be hard to figure out if you don't know what your doing. A lot of women assume that the man just is not interested, but generally this is not the case. Remember? He's shy!

So, you're dating a shy guy and you find that you just cannot relate to his introverted nature. Instead of balking at his shyness, embrace it! Let the guy know that you appreciate his personality because it shows that he is real and not full of arrogance and ignorance like other people. Let him know that while he is quiet that you find what he does have to say is always very profound and that is why you like him so much. This is a great way to build up his confidence and get him to start opening up to you despite his shy disposition.

Take an interest in who he is aside from the shyness. If he has a hobby that he shares with you, ask him a lot of questions about it and show him that you are interested. When he feels like you have accepted this one aspect of his life he may feel an instant kinship with you that will allow him to open up and leave that shy behind. Behind every shy exterior is usually a very interesting interior, you just have to work to get him to show you that part of himself. Taking a true interest in him and what he does will help you see that part of him.

When you date someone shy you need to be comfortable being yourself. If you come across as totally fake than he will be less likely to open up and allow you to get to know who he is under all that shyness. Be comfortable just being you, share the odd things about you, share things with him about your life, what you like. As you show him who you are, he will probably feel more comfortable showing you who he is. You may be amazed to find that he is so much more intelligent, charming, and just well rounded than you ever would have imagined. Being yourself with a shy guy is a huge pay off!

Don't force him into social situations until he is ready. Many women finally get their shy guy to open up to them and they want to take him out to a party with friends. If he is not outgoing in social situations you may need to give him a bit more time just being open with you before he'll have a good time hanging out with your friends. Remember, he's shy and you need to have him feel 100% comfortable with you before you can assume that he is going to open up to any of your friends.

Secrets Why Men Leave Women

The first secret is that we stopped doing our normal activities. Whatever you do, do not stop working out, going to church, doing your errands, hanging out with your girlfriends, just because he calls and wants to see you tonight. A man does not want you to stop being who you are. You should not give up your life, keep a day planner of activities, and do not cancel your plans, you can let him know what time is good for you once you have finished what you have to do.

Another reason a man leaves a woman is because she does not accept him for who he is, and is always trying to change him. Everyone has their own faults; you have to decide whether or not those faults are deal-breakers. It is ok to let him know how you feel, but otherwise, you will have to give him space to be himself.

Lack of appreciation is another common reason why men leave women. I think we have all been guilty of this at some time. We tend to get comfortable in the relationship and simply we do not think it is as important as it was in the beginning. Make sure and tell him thank you when he takes you out to dinner, tell him it is good to hear from him when he calls. Tell him looks nice. If he fixes something for you, make sure and compliment him. Everyone wants to be appreciated.

Another popular reason why a man leaves a woman is because she is overbearing. A woman who demands all of his attention, and keeps in sight at all times. This makes a man feel smothered, and he just wants to do what he wants to do without her interference. Maybe she is always telling him what to do, what to wear, always giving unsolicited advice. He could interpret that as she is trying to run his life.

Being over possessive and not giving them space and freedom is another common reason why men dump women. Nagging falls into this category as well. Nagging and complaining will make the man fell like they want to escape.

If your man has or is falling away from you, you can get him back. You must discover the secret ingredient a man requires in a serious relationship and if you give it to him, he will never leave. It's never too late to get him back, no matter what mistakes you have made.

Secrets Why Women Leave Men

The first secret is being too controlling, you may not have even considered yourself as the controlling type, but women sometimes see this differently. Maybe you get jealous of her friends, or tell her not to spend so much time with her friends. You tell her she spends too much money. You tell her that her house is not clean enough. You hinder her from going somewhere she has plans to go. More than anything, you tell her where and when she should go out.

She had a life before you came into the picture and she can still manage her own time and money without your help. There are situations in which she may want your input or advice, but otherwise, do not be pushy with advice or demands. Instead of demanding time, ask for it, give her space and let her make her own decisions.

The next one is being too critical. A little constructive criticism can be positive. Although suggestions are generally considered acceptable, particularly if she asks for them, putdowns and negative are unacceptable in her eyes. Constantly correcting her will make her feel nitpicked and self-conscious. Smart women know that they should not spend time with a man who puts her down.

You must treat her with kindness and respect at all times, and only give her advice if she asks for it.

Another one is not having a life of your own, maybe you sulk when she tells you that she has plans to go out with her friends. Women interpret this as being needy. It is a popular belief that women are clingy and needy, however, men do the same thing. For any relationship to be healthy each partner must have his or her own life.

Making it obvious that your career comes before her. She wants your job to be important to you, and she is proud of your success and wants you to do well. On the other hand, if you start staying late at work, and canceling dates or if you are constantly hanging out with your coworkers after work hours, she will get ideas about your priorities.

Although a woman appreciates a focused and ambitious man, she also expects you to make time for her. This behavior will make her feel neglected, and she will feel like you do not have time for her, and she feels if you really love her then making time for her should be something you want to do. She also knows that if you do not want to make time for her, that someone else will.

The last one for now is being judgmental of her friends and family. You have to understand that these people are important to her and that she will be very defensive about them. Try to see the good things in them, you might actually start to like them, avoid confrontation with them. Do your best to get along with those closest to her. It will pay off in the long run.

If your girl has or is falling away from you, you can get her back. Learn more about the secret ingredient a woman requires in a serious relationship and if you give it to her, she will never leave. It's never too late to get her back, no matter what mistakes you have made.

Three Ways on How to Be Irresistible

It's easy to get the woman you want, especially if you're as good looking and appealing as Justin Timberlake or Brad Pitt. But if you belong to the group of men who have been thrown drinks right onto their face or have been slapped hard on the face for picking up a woman in a bar, then you might say getting a woman is as hard as perfecting the SAT exam. However, pick up gurus don't believe so. You can be irresistible even if you couldn't pull off a Timberlake dance step or crack that Pitt grin. Below are 3 ways to be irresistible:

1. Make eye contact.
The eyes speak. It tells if you're happy or if you're sad or you are madly in love with a woman. Tell the woman in the room that you desire her. Throw her glances that tell her she's beautiful and that she's desired. Make eye contact once in a while and hold it for a few seconds. The trick would work if you would drop your gaze down ahead of her and don't look at her so often that she'd feel as though she's being stalked. Make eye contact for a couple of times and then stop. Make her want for more.

2. Talk less.
Women still love the old type of guy, the strong silent type. Women believe that men who talk less are men of action. To keep the attention of a woman, let her do the talking and be an ardent listener. She'll appreciate it more than you talking about yourself. Contribute to the conversation if you think she needs a response or if she's asking a question. Be an active listener as well an active communicator. Being a communicator doesn't necessarily mean you should talk and talk; you talk on times when you are expected or needed to talk.

3. Don't flatter women too much.
Although women want to hear flattering comments, they hate it when it seems like you are spreading it on much. According to pick up books, women want a man who likes them for whom they are and appreciate them even with their faults. If you think a woman looks stunning in her dress, tell her so but don't overdo it by telling her all night that she looks great. You can flatter her in other ways by casting her a look that tells her you desire her much.

Three Secrets of Pick Up Artists

Women want you, women swoon at you, and they can't get enough of you. This is the ultimate dream of any man. And only great pick up artists enjoy it. What is it about pick up artists that make them so lovable? What is it about them that you don't have? Below are 3 secrets of pick up artists and how you can imitate them:

1. Great pick up artist reads.
As they say, knowledge is power. And it holds true even with pick up artists. Pick up artists read pick up books. Where else would they know the trade secrets of dating and picking up girls? Starting right now, read books about dating and collect tips on how to be a successful pick up artist. These books reveal secrets of men who are irresistible to women. Of course, authors of these books interviewed these guys with a promise of anonymity. There is a ton of great pick up books that you can get yourself to study and learn "The Art of Approaching" as the experts would call it. These books will teach you how to approach not just any woman but the most beautiful woman around.

2. Great pick up artist starts from being a loser.
There's no such thing as innate irresistibly. George Clooney is downright good-looking yes, but he becomes a ladies man only after he gained confidence to be The Ladies Man. There were photos of him released on the Internet during his high school days and he wasn't a bit a debonair back then as he is now. He had braces; he smiled awkwardly and had sheepish looks that would make you wonder, "Was that really George Clooney?" No girl in school would be so head-over-heels to be with him on prom night.

3. Great pick up artist is not necessarily "good looking."
Take the case of Marc Anthony, a Latino singer. He got involved with the most beautiful women in the world like Angelina Jolie, Dianara Torres (Miss Universe) and Jennifer Lopez. He's not the Brad Pitt type but, he gets the woman he wants.

Another example is David Spade, a comedian. He's not really good looking but take a look at the women he had been linked to! In fact, he knocked up a very beautiful Playboy girl. That's truly something to get envious of. The point here is looks are not that important to get the woman you want. You need to be oozing with sex-appeal (as women would put it) to get noticed. And sex-appeal is something that can be learned and cultivated. You can package yourself to have an animalistic sex appeal if only you wanted to.

Secret Signs Tell You If Your Ex Wants You Back

Do you bump into your ex a lot more that usual? And maybe they seem a little nervous around you but don't seem to be anxious to get away, and seem to make up excuses to prolong your meeting?

Has your ex initiated contact with you more than once and they contact you for no apparent reason, "just to talk." Do they tell you things that have happened to them and how they feel about those things? Do they ask for your advice?

Does your ex still invite you to go out places? Perhaps they talk about numerous changes they have made to improve their life. Have they mentioned changing any annoying habits that they know you used to hate when you were together? Do they appear like they are trying to impress you and win recognition?

Does your ex ask you about your private life? Do they ask you if you are seeing someone else? Are they just nosy in general? Do they appear to be jealous?

Are they dating anyone? If not, it is a good chance that they are holding out to see if you want to get back together.

If your ex is dating other people, this could actually be a good sign. Have you heard that your ex is over-compensating for his/her happiness by going out on a lot of dates, partying a lot or pretending like he/she doesn't really care?

Chances are if you are seeing or hearing about this kind of behavior then your ex is truly hurting, and where there is hurt, there are still strong feelings.

Are they showering you with compliments like they did when you first got together? Are they going out of their way to do things for you?

Do they drop hints to let you know they are free? Or do they drop their plans to hang out with you?

Do they still mention places that you went together, or possibly hang out where you used to hang out together? Or maybe they still carry your picture around or wear something that you gave them.

Does your ex talk trash about you? If your ex has been bad mouthing you all over town it is a good chance that he/she is so heartbroken over your recent breakup that he/she is channeling his/her emotions in a negative way.

If you have NOT experienced any of these signs, there is still hope that your ex still has feelings for you, and chances are good that you can still get back together, all you need is a the knowledge to make it happen.

If you HAVE experienced any of these signs, then chances are extremely good that you ex still has feelings for you. For someone to forget a relationship, they will avoid everything mentioned here altogether.

Now, that we have identified the signs that your ex still has feelings for you, what do you do? With a little guidance from an expert, you will be able to win your ex back in no time flat. Right now, the only thing standing between you and getting back with your ex is knowledge.

A Romantic Dinner For Two

Whether you were introduced to him by your aunt, or found him on an internet dating site, you've got a guy you're really crazy about and you've offered to cook him a meal.

As soon as you made the offer, a thousand and one thoughts went swirling around your head; what do I make, is he allergic to anything, what if I burn something, do I even have a tablecloth? Relax and read on for some hints on making the perfect, at home, romantic meal for two.

Chances are that at this stage of your relationship you've been out to a restaurant or two. Take your cue from what he's ordered in the past, or just come straight out and ask him what his favorites are.

Don't forget to ask him if he is allergic to anything. After all, you don't want to service crab or lobster to someone who is deathly allergic to shellfish.

You should plan for a starter like a soup or salad. Follow this with the main course, which includes vegetables, meat or fish, and rice or potatoes. Accompany the main course by a wine you both like. Despite what you've heard about matching food and wine, it really doesn't matter, as long as it all tastes good. Finish with a dessert.

Once you've determined what you're going to serve, you'll need a recipe. Do yourself a favor and keep it simple. Dig out a cookbook, or jump online. The same way you can find a good guy through internet dating, you can also find great recipes. Just type the name of the dish into your search window and pick a recipe that's not too complicated or fussy.

Make a list of all the ingredients you'll need, and then go through your cupboards and your pantry to determine what you'll need to buy.

Plan your prep and cooking time to coincide with his arrival. You don't want to be slaving over the stove while he's cooling his heels in the living room. Get all your prep done ahead of time, so that all you have to do when he arrives is turn on the burners and give everything a stir once or twice while you both enjoy a pre - dinner drink.

Before he arrives, set the table. Use a tablecloth. If you don't have one, borrow, or buy one at your local dollar store. In a pinch, any type of cloth will do. I even used a (well laundered) white sheet once. Hey, with dimmed lights, he never noticed!

Use your best dishes. It doesn't have to be fine china; your everyday will do, but don't use the stuff with the chips and scratches.

Make sure that the cutlery is clean and polished, and add napkins, preferably cloth ones. If you use paper, don't use a paper towel, which just looks cheap.

Dress up the table with some flowers or a favorite plant. I've also used a small sculpture as a centerpiece.

For the finishing touch, add three of four tapered candles. Dim the lights, or turn them off altogether, and enjoy your romantic at home dinner!

Dating Rules Every Man And Woman Should Know

Many people fail with dating time and time again and that is because they have never been made privy to some really timeless and important rules when it comes to dating. You may be one of the many people who does not like to date by the rules, but there are some tips that you can follow to help you do better with dating so that at the very least you have a good time and at the most that you have another date with someone that you like.

Don't talk about your past too much. You can talk about where you came from, but don't go on and on about your dating woes or even your dating successes. This will make the person that you are dating feel like they are just a future story and they'll be turned off.

Don't come across as desperate. Many people get really excited about going out on a date, and while this can be very exciting; don't come across as too enthusiastic about the date. If you do this you will seem needy and it will be an immediate turn off for any self respecting person. This is not just on the date, but in contacting your date before or after your plans.

When you are out on a date compliment them. You can find anything such as their style of dress, a new haircut, shoes, or even their eyes. Be careful with too much complimenting though, as it can come across as false and this will be a turn off. Heart felt compliments are the only way to go.

Don't talk about past relationships. This needs to be mentioned because we all tend to do this if we aren't careful. If they ask about a previous relationship you can answer, but keep it short and sweet. If you go on and on you'll appear as though you are not over your ex and your date will lose interest really fast.

Make sure that you are always dressed for the date. The worst thing you can do when dating is to show up and look like you just came from the gym or rolled out of bed. Ensuring that you look your best will not only make you feel good, but will also send a message to your date that they are important enough to prepare for.

These are some simple tips that will help you succeed with dating. You might look at them and think that it is all common sense, but it isn't. Many people break these simple rules every time they go out on a date and they don't even think about it. Now that you have read the tips you can keep them in the back of your mind so that when you are about to break them, you can stop yourself and redirect the date in a more positive manner!

Top Reasons You Are on a Bad Date

I am going to tell you about a real date I was on about 5 years ago. It all started when a paralegal that I used to do a fare bit of business with wanted to set me up with her friend. I had never been on a blind date so I thought what the heck.

At the time I had been on a couple of internet dating sites and was having no luck. The paralegal had a great personality, was quite interesting and very easy on the eyes so maybe her friend was going to be similar?

Let's start with first impressions, her friend as I mentioned was quite attractive, my date was nothing short of stunning. I have dated not intentionally quite a few blondes in the past and she was by far the most attractive.

We hoped in my car and took off to a Calgary Flames game. At the rink they have a really good restaurant so we got their early to grab some food as well as giving us a chance to get to know each other.

And here is where things went downhill, first off she was incredible religious. I am well not! Second thing was she talked about herself, a lot. I had at one point mentioned that I had family living in Israel, you'd think this would beg the question "Why is your family living there?" Not this gal she went right back to talking about her mom and the church. They other part that was so amazing to me was the fact that her friend the one that had set us up her husband was Lebanese. Well this gal hated anyone that wasn't white, I am not joking, this gal grew up in the 90's and was a complete racist.

Past all of this the worst part was the fact that she was really dumb, sorry all of you blondes out there this was an example of a dumb blonde. It got so bad that at one point she was still talking away without listening to me that I said "I think I am going to leave!" She didn't answer at all so that's exactly what I did. I left her at the game and I am not sure how she got home, but I felt I had to do that.

In an ironic twist the best way I could explain this to my friends was, she was gorgeous but god doesn't give you everything!

How To Turn Your Woman Date Off

The following could just as easily be used by a woman to permanently turn off a guy, but I had to pick one gender for the title otherwise it would have sounded rather lame!

So you've finally arranged an actual first date with that totally adorable woman you met on your internet dating site! Congratulations!

You've agreed on where to have dinner, and now you're sweating about what to say and do to make sure that there will be a second date.

Here are some ideas on what NOT to do. You're pretty much guaranteed that there won't be a repeat date if you do one or, God forbid, more than one of the following on your first date. Moreover, you'll likely be getting some extremely negative online dating site reviews, and who needs that?

1. Use bodily noises - Oh yeah, this one's my favorite! I can't remember ever being more turned off when I had dinner with a guy who belched and farted his way through the appetizers, the main course AND dessert.

He thought it was perfectly normal and okay to practically turn it into a symphony of sounds, but I walked out after I finished my steak. Too bad because damn that dessert menu looked soo good!
Save the gas passing, from either direction, for married life. Even then, discretion is always better.

2. Be overly romantic - Guys, we all love romantic gestures, but two dozen roses and a strolling violinist plus a cozy candlelight dinner is over the top for a first date.

Make it a single rose, ditch the violinist and save the cozy candlelight dinner for down the road.

3. Talk talk talk, constantly - Yes, we want to know all about you, but that doesn't mean you need to develop verbal diarrhea. Shut up every now and again so your date can say a word or two.

After all, a first date is about getting to know each other, not just about you getting to know her.

4. Be very nervous - We get it, we really do, because we're nervous too! We just hide it better.

Before you meet, take some long, deep breaths to calm yourself. Extreme nervousness on your part makes you look totally insecure, and we're just not into that.

5. Call her right after your date - Nothing says clingy like calling her on the phone right after your first date.

Provided you both had fun, of course she wants you to call her! Do give it a day or two before you pick up the phone.

How To Break The Ice With A Beautiful Stranger

There she goes, another beautiful woman you'd love to go out with - in line at a Starbucks, sitting alone down the bar from you, walking down the sidewalk, waiting for a bus, getting out of a taxi, stepping into an elevator with you right before the doors close.

How do you strike up the kind of conversation that could lead to getting her phone number and maybe even a first date?

Approaching and picking up women. Some guys can do it like there's nothing easier, others are so riddled by anxiety and uncertainty they'd sooner face a firing line than let word one escape their lips.

How do you become more like the first type of guy and stop being so much like the second? What can you do so that the next chance you get to meet a beautiful woman isn't just another in a long line of missed or self-sabotaged opportunities?

Do it Alone

First of all, the best time to approach a woman is when you both are alone. Women generally go out in groups, a scenario that provides them a sense of safety and comfort, but that makes it virtually impossible for any man to break through that barrier to strike up a meaningful conversation.

Likewise, when you're out with your buddies, women take note, and while the presence of your friends may give you the artificial ego boost that you need to get off your butt and approach her, it also can make her feel like she's in the hot seat. The problem on both sides of this equation is that, with friends around, you both are in your comfort zone. And your comfort zone is one of the worst places from which to make something new happen.

When she's alone and you're alone, however, you're both on equal footing. You're both more vulnerable, more likely to be yourself (rule #1 for dating in general, not to mention all of life). Neither of you have that safety net of friends to fall back on, and neither of you have a peanut gallery feeding your head with their opinions of what you should or shouldn't do. Your guard is down and so is hers. All this gives you the best chance of making an authentic first impression, the best chance you have of discovering whether there's enough mutual chemistry between you to merit further conversation (which is all that you can ever really ask).

More than Words

Picking up women is less about the words coming out of your mouth and more about the unspoken communications coming from your body language. Body language can make the difference between a "Yes" and a "No", between a smiling nod and a cold shoulder.

Your body language conveys how relaxed or nervous you are, how confident or insecure you are, how genuine or fake you're being. A woman can tell more from the way you hold yourself when you approach her and talk to her than she ever can from your choice of words.

Do you stand tall, shoulders back, chest out, hands at your sides, make eye contact and smile? Or do you meekly slouch up to her, shoulders sloped, chest caved in, fidgeting with your hands, looking pensive, hesitant, and anywhere but directly into her eyes? The former might get you a date. The latter may get you a humiliating laugh.

Take Her Off that Pedestal

Of course, learning the proper and improper ways to hold yourself is easy when you're at home and can practice in front of a mirror, but all that diligent effort typically falls by the wayside when you're facing a gorgeous stranger. Suddenly you forget all your dating training, and you become nothing more than a bundle of want. That want is an instant and total turn-off.

The way, then, to ensure that your body language is as inviting and attractive as possible, even when you're completely unable to recall the specific tips you've learned, is to put your attachment to achieving some result (namely: getting this girl's number) out of your mind.

Remove the expectations, the goal, the objective, the prize from your mind, and all that's left is you and her.

If approaching her holds no more weight to you than ordering a cheeseburger, if you're just going about your day and just happen to be taking a moment out to strike up a conversation with a stranger, you're much more likely to behave naturally, an attractive demeanor by any measure.

One major reason why so many men fail in their efforts to win the interest of a woman is that they try too hard. They pay an inappropriate compliment. They ask an irrelevant question. They ramble on endlessly with some unsolicited information about themselves. None of this would happen if the guy didn't care so much whether or not the woman liked him, whether or not his pick-up attempts were "good enough".

So take it down a notch. Don't make it seem like your whole life depends on winning her approval. Don't be a dog, be a man. If she's interested, she's interested. If not, so what? You're no worse off than if you had never approached her in first place. At least you gave it a shot, and for that, whether successful or not, you should feel good about yourself. Better than if you'd done nothing at all.

The Most-Effective Pick-Up Line Ever

You ready? You may be surprised...

It's "Hi".

That's all. Nothing fancy. Nothing contrived, nothing practiced and artificial. Just an opening.

Then you can introduce yourself. Hopefully she'll return the courtesy. If not, you've got a pretty clear indication that you're not going to get anywhere with her. If she does tell you her name, then Congratulations! you've just broken the ice.

From there you can take it anywhere. The top 3 contenders are:
1. Make an observation about your environment
2. Ask a (complimentary) question about something she's wearing, carrying, or some other part of her appearance.
3. Ask her for a woman's perspective on a question you've been pondering.

Dating and Personality

It's a very common attribute amongst people. People judge others by their looks all the time. However, when hoping to find someone you can spend the rest of your life with then it is important to silence this trait and be able to look for the more important attributes of someone's personality.

Unfortunately, everybody does it. At some point everyone should take a step back and realize that subconsciously we all do it, we all have the tendency to be superficial.

Many believe that men do it more often than women when looking for a relationship. Nevertheless, this behavior can be de-constructive when it comes to meeting a woman for a relationship. Every person likes to be appreciated for who they are, not what they look like and this is something that stands as an obstacle for every relationship. Even people who have great physical beauty don't want to be judged based on that beauty.

The widespread idea is that it is possible to like a person for their physical beauty first and then start to like a person for who they are once you get to know them. Once you find the character of the person agreeable you will start liking the person for who they are. When it comes to dating many men are like that. They look at physical beauty only and don't try to look deeper than that.

Men find themselves entangled in long but problematic relationships that cause a lot of hardship just because the woman they are dating is beautiful from the outside but doesn't have the personality traits that match.

The shallowness of some men and the notion that looks are the only determinant to happiness has influenced how women think. Some women are convinced that men only interested in looks and this idea makes them feel insecure about who they are and how they approach relationships and life in general. This comes into play when women get older and less youthful in appearance.

Society and how men think especially has made women terribly self conscious about their looks. When considering what you truly believe is important in a woman. If looks is top on your list it will surely lead to a very dissatisfying experience for you, and your woman.

Another difference regarding how men and women are perceived by the opposite sex is that a man is considered more distinguished looking when his hair takes on the salt and pepper look, whereas women merely look old. Wrinkles on a man are no big deal, but for women the first sign of a wrinkle is cause to consider botox treatment or other cosmetic surgery.
A good example on how this unfortunate social mechanism functions is that many people need to see a person or the other persons picture before they actually get to know them first. Nevertheless, a decision based largely on looks is more suitable for a shallow meaningless relationship rather than anything else.

Both men and women need to learn how to appreciate other people, prospective mates for who they are and not the way they look. In the authors opinion it is imperative for someone who is looking for a relationship, to be able to externalize their inner beauty. An attractive personality is much more important than an attractive shell.

How to Get to Know Your Date

The notion of dating has become embedded in our culture. Two people meet they go on a date and hopefully it' a match. The problem is that most people she dating as a shallow way of getting to know someone. Nevertheless, its not necessarily the case. Two people can create a meaningful relationship if they can manage to get to know one another the right way.

Getting to know that special man or woman is something that will happen once you spend enough time with him or her. During that time it is important that you are able to communicate properly and in a way that will allow the relationship to flourish. Communication ought to be both verbal and physical.

In order for communication to evolve properly one must always keep an open mind. Don't judge people based on their appearances alone and try to stay interested. Most people wont open up right away so getting to know someone could take some time, a few dates. Its imperative to keep your relationship moving forward, you are going to have to find out as much as you can about him or her.

Getting to know someone comes with patience. Once that happens, and you are able to keep an open mind and not judge people, romance will follow. When it comes to getting to know someone communication plays a very significant role. In order to communicate properly you have to listen first. Listen to what the other person has to say and let them open up. Listen carefully and try to understand. When you start understanding that's when communication will flourish. You need to be in the position to start conversations.

There is really no better way to get to know your date than through the interaction you'll have with them during a conversation. These traits come into play more when you are dating someone from a different cultural background for example a Greek woman or man.

What you learn through all communication will serve as a great starting point that will enable you to start understanding better. Being good at understanding the other person and their needs comes from being able to listen first. Of course the same goes with your date as well. Whether you date is a man or a woman they need to be able to communicate and be understanding.

Although there are many things people have in common, there are an equal number of things that they don't have in common, either. That's why being communicative and understanding is very important when entering a new relationship.

Ultimately, it all comes back to what you can learn about her for yourself. While it is helpful to get a few dating tips from your dates or significant others friends, family, and acquaintances, too much of this type of research can be confusing and irrelevant. It is important to be able for you to understand your date and allow your relationship to flourish by not being obstructive but a constructive dating communicator.
