Dating Tip: Ladies Be A Man-Magnet

April 26, 2009

Dating tip #1:
Go out in groups of no bigger than three. Larger groups of girls are supertough (read: intimidating) to approach. Three is a good number because your two friends can keep each other company when a guy walks up to chat with you.

Dating tip #2:
Smile genuinely. So obvious, right? But I can’t stress it enough — Now I know that women smile all the time naturally (when they’re nervous, when they’re trying to be polite, etc.), so if you don’t do it at all, you look unapproachable.

Dating tip #3:
Work the eye contact. To reel him in from across the room, tilt your chin down a bit and flash him a couple of sultry glances. (Guys love it when you look up at them — it makes them feel manly.) If the guy across the room is so gorgeous you have a hard time looking straight at him and are simply too nervous, fake it by focusing on the tiny area right between his eyes. He won’t be able to tell the difference.

Dating tip #4:
Don’t immediately ask him what he does. Some men think all women are gold diggers. A lot of my clients ask, “why can’t I ask about his job?” Its simple, guys see this as a red flag, plus it’s that fear-of-being-used thing again.

Dating tip #5:
Make positive small talk. Once I started studying women, I couldn’t believe how negative some of them appear. When you’re out on the town, you’re supposed to be having fun, and any complaint (“It’s hot in here!”), pessimism (“There will definitely be another terrorist attack”), or snarky quip (“Look at that chick’s belt — so 2002!”) pretty much pokes a hole in the fun-girl aura you should be projecting. Some better small-talk topics: recent vacations, favorite bands, hilarious movies. You can hit him with your deep, dark world-view some other time.

Txting Do’s and Don’ts

April 8, 2009

This has been a topic of many discussions as of late. I thought I would clear the air on this thumbthing phenomenon. It seems that guys are lacking in txting etiquette…*Hint Guys*  Txting  is one form of communication, don’t make it your ONLY way of communication.  So don’t txt the ladies when you should actually be calling them. The list below will cover the Do’s and Don’ts on txting. 

DO’s

1. Txt her after your date to wish her a safe trip home. 

2. Txt her to tell her your thinking of her.

3. Txt her to say how HOT she looks today.

4. Txt her to let her know you want her to have a great day. 

5. Txt her let her know you are excited to see her tonight, or whenever you’ve planned the next date.

DON’Ts

1. Don’t txt her to ask her out on a date.

2. Don’t txt her to have serious discussions. 

3. Don’t txt her if you can’t fit the txt within the allowed character limit.

4. Don’t txt her to break up with her. FYI that’s pretty low man!

5. Don’t be the booty call txter!

And ladies, if the guy is only txting you. He’s not that into you! If a guy is really into a woman, he is going to make the effort to communicate in more ways than one. Don’t be the txting girl! Move on to someone that will actaully take the time to call you for those awesome conversations. Ladies, don’t settle!!
