How to Tell if She’s Interested

Posted on : 07-03-2012 | By : The Ideal Match | In : Dating Tips

Let’s assume you’re at a coffee shop and you see a woman you want to meet. You approach her and say something like, “I haven’t seen you here before, what’s your name?”

Let’s say she tells you her name answering “Kelli.”

She has immediately sized you up, made a decision to tell you her name and done so.

Would you say she is interested in knowing you?

I would say she’s not very interested.

Why?

Because she didn’t ask you your name.

She didn’t say “My name is Kelli, what’s yours?” If she does say that, you’re off to a good start.

Let’s take another example…

And yet another lame excuse women throw at guys they are not feeling attracted to. This is right up there with “I have a boyfriend.” or the classic “I am too busy to hang out.”. But that is completely okay if you get an excuse like these.

Sometimes you just need to accept failure. After all do you really think you have failed just by getting shot down by one girl? These are some effective dating tips for men so pay attention. The best thing you can really do about getting shot down by women like this is brush it off.

Dating Tips for Men

Forget about it and move on. You need to have the right mindset when you are searching for your mistress. You need to be the “type” of guy that is selective. Don’t be the selectee. Don’t be the guy who constantly thinks about a woman he has lots of interest in when in fact the woman has no interest in you.

Top 5 Valentine’s Day faux pas to avoid

Posted by Eve

No matter what you do, here’s what not to do on V-Day

We women understand that just the thought of February 14 has the power to inspire pure panic in most men. We get it — Valentine’s Day is the one 24-hour period when the likelihood of a potential misstep that negates all the work you’ve put in trying to think up “sensitive” questions to ask us and pretend you’re not a mouth breather increases exponentially.

While we appreciate that expectations run high around this time every year, believe us when we say that guys make it harder than it has to be. High-maintenance ladies aside (because, frankly, it’s your fault if you’re with a girl who will accept nothing less than a gourmet meal made from scratch and a marriage proposal), most of us will be happy if you can just manage to not to break these 5 very simple rules of thumb.

  1. Make plans – “I couldn’t get a table” isn’t going to cut it on V-Day, fellas. Set an Outlook reminder, have a buddy call you or staple a sticky note to your head, but no matter what you do, you better think up something fun and take steps ahead of time to make it happen.
  2. Put forth some effort – No one says you need to show up at the door with diamonds, but don’t come empty-handed. Almost any flowers will do. Ditto chocolates, jewelry or even a thoughtful card if you’re hurtin’ for cash. Just don’t let it be a present for you disguised as a present for her. (We always know.)
  3. Pick up the check – It may be old school, but on Valentine’s Day, you pay. End of story. And don’t brag about your chivalry (hint: that makes it less than chivalrous) or whine about the price. Making her feel guilty for ordering dessert is not sexy.
  4. Dress up – Whatever that means for you. If you normally show up for dates in your thrifting t-shirt and “holy” jeans, finding a pair that doesn’t show off your crack and adding a button-down will probably floor her. Taking a little extra care with your grooming ritual tells your lady this night is special.
  5. Don’t forget – Call it harsh, but this is grounds for immediate dismissal. Mainly because it proves you’re an idiot who doesn’t have a calendar and doesn’t care about his effect on other people, including the allegedly memorable girl in your life. Flat out forgetting is poor form, and we know your mama raised you better.

There are definitely a few other big no-nos that didn’t make the short list — like not giving her your full attention and getting caught with V-Day gifts for your ex — but we wanted to keep it simple. Follow these 5 steps and you’re guaranteed to have a fairly smooth Valentine’s Day 2010.

Top 3 Second Date Tips for Men

Posted on : 01-02-2012 | By : The Ideal Match | In : Dating Tips

Now that you made it past the first date, it is time to think about how you can enjoy and make the most out of the second date. For most daters, the second meeting is a bit more downplayed and less tension filled but it does not mean you can slack off and not make any effort at all.

Below are 3 second date tips for men who are looking to continue in impressing their lady friend, in pursuit of a possible relationship.

The Second Date is All about Getting Personal

While the first meeting might be a bit awkward or perhaps even downright terrifying because of the pressure, the second date is mostly more relaxed and laid back. This means you can get to know your lady and she can know more about who you are.

Since the date is all about getting acquainted on a much deeper level, you might want to choose a setting which would allow a good flow of conversation. Having coffee or lunch together in an informal or casual restaurant would be your best bet because the ambiance takes away the pressure.

Home Cooking is a Great Idea

If you really want to impress your date, consider taking a very unconventional approach such as inviting the lady over for a romantic dinner at your place. This way, you benefit from the home court advantage and your date will definitely feel special because of the effort you have exerted to make the night special. Make sure you ask her whether she is allergic to certain types of food to prevent any untoward incident.

The last thing you want is to give her allergies or food poisoning.

Lighting candles and putting out nice plates and silverware would help make the setting more romantic but still very relaxed and homey.

Your goal is to make her feel welcome and comfortable so that she knows that you are interested in spending more time with her. A bit of background music wont hurt, but make sure the sounds do not drown out your conversation.

Among all second date tips you would encounter, this one is intended for situations where you feel really comfortable with your date and you are interested in seeing more of her in the near future.

Maintain Eye Contact

Women like it when men pay attention to them especially during conversations. Maintaining eye contact is a big part of this so make sure that you are looking directly into her eyes while she talks.

The same rule applies when you are carrying the conversation to establish your sincerity regardless of what you are talking about. Gazing into a woman’s eyes is also considered a very romantic gesture so it will score you even more points.

These second dating tips should not only help you secure a third date, but also maintain her keen interest on you.

Most women are looking to date men who will keep them interested and fascinated for more than just a few dates so pulling all the stops is definitely a smart move.

Dating Tips For Needy Men

“Dating Tips For Needy Men”

If you have been reading my column for awhile, you should know
that being needy pushes women away from you. So today we’re going to go
over some ways to make yourself less needy around women if that is
problem for you.

Here is a little test: See if you can look into the eyes of
an extremely attractive woman without feeling nervous or worrying
about what she thinks of you. If you can, good for you – you dont
need this article. But if you can’t, then it’s a sign you need to
follow my tips.

All of the points and techniques below are based on two
observations I’ve made over my career as a dating and relationship
coach:

Needy men are needy due to a lack of options and confidence.

They are needy because they think they cannot get a “better”
woman, which in turn comes from a lack of confidence. Here are a few
way a man can overcome these two obstacles and act less needy around
women.

1) Get used to attractive women

The first thing a needy man needs to do is to get used to
being around beautiful women. If you never get to see or hang out
with women, OF COURSE you’re going to get nervous or act needy
when you see one.

Start hanging out with beautiful girls without hitting
on them. Just befriend them without trying to make them yours. Get
used to having them around. See how HUMAN they are. See how they
have problems just like everybody else. Once you see that they
aren’t any better or different than yourself, you won’t feel a
needy to impress them anymore.

2) Build friendships with other males

It is also important that you build good friendships
with other men. In my experience, most men who do not feel
confident around women do not get along well with other men
either. Play some team sports and go out with the boys. Act
“stupid” with them and let loose! You need that competitive
testosterone!

3) Have ambition and be naturally competitive with yourself

Most people would tell you that women like men with
ambition. The more you have in your life – be in wealth or
money – the more choices you will FEEL you have in your choice
of women, period. Note I am not suggesting that all (or even
most) women are attracted to money and power, or that you
should go after the gold-diggers. What I am saying is that having
these things in your life will help you FEEL like you have
ACCESS to more women and act less needy as a result.

The perfect scenario is for you to KNOW you are
on the same caliber of the women you are trying to attract…
and that you don’t have try to impress them at all.

4) Have things to live for outside of a relationship

If you make a woman your whole world, you’re going to
drive her away, period. If you don’t have anything right now,
then go out and get it. Nobody is stopping you besides
yourself.

5) Be less available

Do not be available all the time. Don’t answer every
call and don’t accept every date. Let there be priorities
other than dating and romance.

6) Expand Your World

Go out and explore the world around you. Get interested
in what life has to offer you. Go out and meet new people. Read
books and take classes. Travel to new countries. Try new hobbies.

7) Grow Thicker Skin

Stop thinking that you are the center of the world and
stop worrying about what others think of you. Get a sales job
and get used to being rejected. Know that not everyone will
like you and that you don’t need them to like you. Focus on
being competitive with YOURSELF instead!

8) Take responsibility

Needy men love to feel victimized. Stand up for yourself
and take responsibility for your own life. Come up with solutions
for your problems and execute them. Stop whining to other people
or getting them to feel sorry for you. It won’t help you any in
the long run.

9) Exercise and dress nice

Exercise and dress well so that you always look your best.
It will make you feel more confident around strangers.

How To Compliment Women Without Losing Your Power

“How To Compliment Women Without Losing Your Power”

Today I am going to show you a way to compliment
women without losing your power.

It’s really quite simple…

Instead of trying to flatter a woman with compliments,
try to “approve” her with compliments instead!

Although the compliment itself may carry the same
meaning, if you say it with an “approving tone” instead
of a “sucking up tone”, you will not lose any status or
power by saying the compliment.

Let’s look at some examples of the “flattery”
compliment:

1) “You look so hot in that dress…”

2) “You are a very intelligent woman.”

3) “You must be a model.”

4) “You have a very sweet voice.”

These flattery compliments are not “bad.” But if
you use them too often, a woman will lose her romantic
respect for you.

Now let’s look at some examples of the “approval”
compliment:

1) “Not bad, not bad at all!” (Give her a kiss,
hold her close, and smell her.)

2) “You’re pretty smart. What are your plans
for the future?”

3) “You look pretty good. Better than some of
the model friends I know.”

4) “You have a very sweet voice. Ever thought
of taking voice lessons?”

See how the underlying meanings are the same,
but you’re not losing your power by over-complimenting
the woman any more?

Dating Advice For Men – 3 Easy Tips You Need To Know!

Posted on : 11-01-2012 | By : The Ideal Match | In : Dating Tips

Men, it’s okay to admit that you have a hard time figuring women out. It’s been that way for a LONG time, and it probably will continue to be that way. Men and women simply think differently. So, you have to understand that there are some things that you have to know about women IF you want to succeed with getting dates, phone numbers, and the female attention that you crave.

Here are three things that you have to know IF you want to succeed with women:

 

1. Women respond to their emotions more than they do LOGIC. You will see situations all of the time where a woman will be attracted to a man, that logically, is probably the worst possible choice for her. Knowing that women respond more to their emotions, you have to realize that you are going to have to TRIGGER these emotions to get the female attention that you desire.

2. Women are just as sexual as you are. A lot of men place women on a pedestal and forget that they are human. You have to remember that women want sex just as much as you do. They just don’t want to be seen as that EASY girl that any guy can have. Make her feel sexy and classy and she will be less likely to shoot you down. Treat her the other way and you are going to spend a lot of nights ALONE!

3. Women want a man that acts like a man. Now, this does not mean they want a CAVEMAN. So, don’t act like one! They also don’t want a guy that caves in easily and has no backbone of his own. You have to show that you are confident, assertive, and that you are in control. In short, be a MAN!

A lot of men will have a hard time trying to figure out women and how to make them respond. You can easily rise above these men by following these three tips and watch as you finally start to get the female attention you CRAVE!

Dating Tips For Men: “Confidence Comes From Within”

Posted on : 04-01-2012 | By : The Ideal Match | In : Dating Tips

by Ben Ezra 

Now, let me start off by being frank with you.

If you currently have issues when it comes to meeting, attracting, and dating women, absolutely NO DATING TIPS OR ADVICE will help you if you skip the most important part, which is understanding how your PSYCHOLOGY works – understanding where real confidence comes from.

These days, I see so many websites, and so called “PUA’s” (what a silly term) preaching all these techniques and magic “pick up lines” to men that have so many deeper rooted confidence issues and fears related to rejection, approaching, socializing, etc… And, its no surprise why many of these guys never end up successful…

Listen, if you want to achieve anything great into your life, not just the average “well, i guess i’ll settle for this” kind of great… But the REAL kind of great that you wish for and deserve, then you need to start making some DRASTIC changes in what you focus on.

Focus only on technique, and all you will get (if anything) is some superficial / artificial result… And if that’s all you want, then don’t waste your time reading the rest of this post. Go study some “canned pick up line” or “PUA method”.

But, if you are the kind of person that wants to REALLY improve your dating life, as well as every other aspect of your life, in ways that you never dreamed were possible… Then stay with me for the next minute or so…

Some call what I’m talking about “inner game”… And I agree with the first part. But definitely not the second.

Your psychology and mind is far from a game. It is what will make you or break you in life…

Women want a man with a STRONG psychology… Not a man with a weak psychology who uses lame pickup lines… Real and lasting confidence stems from a strong psychology, and you cant get that by using pickup lines.

Now, here’s the interesting part though…

Once you do become that kind of person that has a STRONG psychology, and has a great understanding behind the power of the mind… What you say to a woman doesn’t really matter anymore, because it is no longer all about technique…

A man with a STRONG psychology, and real confidence from within can say almost anything to a woman, and walk away successful.

On the other hand, a man with a weak psychology that only focuses on “technique” can only approach a woman and walk away successful by memorizing a word-for-word script, and by acting in a superficial / fake manner, IF HES THAT LUCKY!

WHY?

Because technique without a strong psychology is like trying to drive a car without tires or gas! You may somehow find a way to roll down the road, but you definitely won’t get far!

So guys, don’t fall into the trap of believing all this “pick up lines” and technique based “seduction methods” rubbish. If you do, you are likely to reach a point where you will really start to feel frustrated and unfulfilled, if your not feeling like that already…

Technique is the last part of the puzzle… And a very small part! So don’t focus on it until you deal with the more important areas first.

Build a strong foundation first. From the ground up…

You can learn how to build that foundation and really understand your psychology, and how to use it to your advantage when it comes to meeting and dating women, as well as any other aspect of your life!

I heard a great saying once, and it went something like this:

An overnight success usually happens after years of hard work

Now, that doesn’t mean it will take you years to find the woman, or women of your dreams… I can teach you how to do that in a much shorter time frame, but it will take a strong desire for you to succeed, and the ability to consistently focus on the right things, and take the necessary actions.

Leave the so called “technique only methods” for the lame men (more like weasels). If you read this far, I’m sure your not like those kinds of people, and you surely do not want to end up like any of them…

Begin your journey to real, and lasting change when it comes to your dating life, and commit to studying your psychology, and focus on becoming a better person with a strong character… If you do that, you will reach a point where the so called “technique” will not matter anymore… You will be able to approach a woman, say anything – and walk away successful.

That is when you will really begin to understand the power of what I am saying.

Begin your journey today!
