10 Don’ts For The First Date

batool — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 08:32:13 +0000

Oh my God! I am going on a date with the hottest guy on this earth. What do I wear? Which color does he like? What will make me look best? Which color lipstick should I go for? And yes what about my hairstyle?

Relax girls and take a deep breath. He is just a normal guy who lives on the same planet. So what if he is hot and his looks can even kill you. This is not how you have to behave when going on your first date. In fact just be the way you are. I have lined up some things that you should avoid during your first date.

Do not become expansive or unreserved about yourself:

This is your first date and you do not need to tell him everything about yourself. Be reserved and don’t give him a bad impression about you. Leave some things for the next date. Make him feel curious about you so that he may also invite you for the next date. Boasting about yourself and telling him everything about you will leave a bad impression and there will be nothing left to do.

Do not interrupt:

Give him a chance to also tell few things about himself. Let him talk and speak. Guys like us to listen to them and what they have to say. Do not interrupt when he is talking. Let him finish what he has to say then give your opinion and start talking. This way he will get a space and feel that you are giving him a chance to speak up too.

Do not cross the limits of decency:

On your first date do not talk about indecent things. Do not get very personal and ask about his past girlfriends and if they were better than you or not.

Do not scroll your eyes:

When talking to him keep an eye contact. Do not look here and there and show as if you are not at all interested about what he is talking. Show him some interest. This will make him feel that you are one stupid person.

Don’t be sarcastic:

Sarcastic comments always hurt you. The same way it may hurt them too. It’s good to share jokes and laugh about small things but do not make sarcastic comments. This annoys the other person a lot. Share stories and laugh about them. Keep a smile on your face as it is the best you can do with your lips.

Do not eat or drink a lot:

This is your first date and not an eating or drinking competition that you end up eating so much. Eat something which is light and not heavy that you end up burping loud in front of him. Do not drink a lot and if you do then think that it was the first and the last date. Drinking a lot can make you say things you are not supposed to say and that will be the last time he will meet you.

Do not flirt with other men:

On your date do not try to flirt with other men. Do not look here and there and stare at the guy sitting on the next table. This will make him think that you are a flirt and may use you.

Do not look like a woman for one night:

Giving a decent impression to your guy is very important. Do not show him that you are dying to sleep with him and that you are desperate. Act decent and simple.

Do not show a clear interest:

As mentioned above, do not make him feel that you are desperate to have him. Stay in your limits. This is your first date. Comment about his taste and dressing. He will feel good. As praising someone is loved by everyone.

Be different:

Yes. This is very important. Be different. Do not be like just another typical girl around. Make yourself attractive and unique. Make him feel that you are a different girl and much better than his previous girlfriends. Laugh, smile, joke around and make your first date the one you always remember. Act as a wise and smart girl. The one guys crave for.

Every guy has a different taste and every guy is unique but they all want gilrs who are smart, easy to handle and not annoying. They love girls who listen to them and understand them. So,try being a different girl and make your guy the happiest of all.

There are 18% of Americans who believe that Sun revolves around the Earth. They still are very confused about the fact whether the sun reovles around the earth or the earth revolves around the Earth.

More than half of Americans in the country initially had no idea about creationism or even evolution. They just knew some how humans popped up the Earth and well started their regular life.

Top 10 Love Mistakes Made By Men

batool — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 08:32:16 +0000

When it comes to relationships, men are pretty much dumb. No offense gentlemen, but this is a true fact, that you do acknowledge quite often in your life. Why? Well, a man does not have that deep intuitional knowledge like a woman, he’s not emotionally stable like a woman, he’s not into multi-tasking and thinking about a hundred things at a time like a woman.

A man simply knows 2+2 = 4, a woman thinks 2(x) + 2(x) = ?. Which is why women expect tremendously from men, and poor men don’t even have a clue of what is it that is harming their relationship. So, here’s some basic mistakes that men usually make, when they are with a woman. Rest assured, these mistakes are unintentional and through gentle reminders, the woman can help her man understand the mistakes and encourage him to be a better person next time!

1). Failing To Be A Prince

Yes! sadly speaking women have been raised to believe in fairy tales where a prince riding on a horse comes around and saves the damsel in distress. Well most women nowadays are damsels in distress and yes no matter how they deny it, they all are looking for Prince Charming, ah no, sorry, Prince of Persia maybe. The charming element hardly matters now, they want someone who can fight the world for them. So its not through masculine charm that you can win a woman’s heart, but its through fighting skills. A strong, determined, confident man will at once attract a woman’s attention. Do not ever show your fear of another man, and appear strong, no matter how much you may be shaking out of fear at the moment.

2). An Overdose of Romance

There are some men out there who simply go crazy over a woman and become highly romantic, expressing himself too much and is a slave to the woman. This is not going to lead you anywhere, but the dumping section. Women prefer men who are romantic in a surprising and classic way (somewhat like James Bond). If you over do the affection, she is going to take you for granted and give you no value. Keep a woman intrigued, curious and yet knowledgeable of your love for her. Balance here is the key. Don’t be too silent about your feelings, but don’t be too talkative or expressive of it either.

3). Forgetting Habits Of A Gentleman

Remember courtesy and manners in a man are the two main turning points for a woman. She would want you to hold the door for her, pull the chair for her, carry the stuff for her and be a true gentleman. Regardless of whether you’re married to her or simply dating, courtesy call is the best way you can get a woman to respect and cherish you. There are some sweet men in the world, who bring food for their partner during an invitation party, or carry the grocery trolley, asks what the lady wants before ordering food, supports her when walking up the stairs etc. These small gestures may make you the man of her life!

4). Not Being Strong In Your Decisions

Like earlier stated, you have to be strong headed. Saying things to the woman like, “I don’t really know”, “I don’t care”, “It’s up to you”, “Your wish” etc is a major let down. It shows you are indecisive, uninterested in the current event and can never be a support she can count on for tough decisions. Remember as a man, it is your duty to bring about a strong decision, as generally women find it difficult to think on one judgment pattern.

5). Failing To Provide Security

Don’t wait to be married to your love, then spend money on her. It wouldn’t count as much. Instead, show her NOW that you can be the provider, the breadwinner of the family and you are good with it. That is why they say never be in a relationship until you are financially stable (this is a must for men). Help her with bills, or any financial matter. It will increase her sense of security and with that she will give you utmost respect and love. She will also automatically help you out in your time of need.

6). Don’t be A Fakster

Yes, honesty is very much needed in a relationship. If you feel overburdened, overwhelmed or troubled by any problem, do not be afraid to discuss it out with your partner. If you put up a macho image, or fake yourself, you might end up making her think that she is not worth your attention or understanding.

7). Failing To Understand Her Love Language

Sometimes words are not needed. Her eyes, her smile, even her glare should be understood by you. Small, gentle gestures as holding hands, walking down the beach, making food, doing things for each other could lead your relationship to a very beautiful level. However, also make sure that you are not the only one doing everything because this is recipe for disaster.

8). Falling Madly For Someone Who Doesn’t Deserve You

There are some men out there who fall for a woman who’s hot, beautiful and successful. But remember that all that glitters is not gold. Women can sometimes be extremely selfish and could use you for her benefit, if she knows you’re head over heels with her. A very clear judging point is needed from you here. Is she balancing the relation? Is she understanding you? Is she aware of you’re problems and doesn’t brag about herself all the time? Does she respect you? Does she love you for who you are? Think very clearly before you give all your time and care to someone who may not deserve it.

9). Failing To Be Humorous

Women are most of the time reserved and always need a good laugh. Be the funny guy for your lady once in a while. Be witty, comical, funny, make her laugh, make her enjoy time with you. But again don’t over do it, as she also wouldn’t want a joker to be a partner either.

10). Not Getting Out Of Your Comfort Zone

Compromise and adjustment is the key to any relationship. Don’t indulge yourself too much in work, in sports and in computers. Give her quality time, help her out with her hobbies and passions as well and also gently get her to enjoy your adventure, your hobbies or even let her enjoy watching a football match with you.

It’s not an easy list for most guys to follow, but if you genuinely love your woman and if she deserves you in all respects, then you should avoid these mistakes and look to build a life and grow together in happiness and love.

Top 10 Fatal Love Mistakes Made By Women

batool — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:32:26 +0000

Relationships, as easy that they sound, are not that effortless. A relation between a man and a woman might start up to be very nice and lovely but who knows it might turn into a stormy one after a few months. The actuality is that we all run for the word called Love when none of us knows how to define it.

So why not get real and remember our ethics and humanitarian behavior. Yes, because this special person needs to be the way you are with of course some sparkling romance. In terms of doing out of the ordinary, we usually end up making silly mistakes that result into a oops so spoiled a relation. What we should know is that the magic lies in knowing how to deal with the other person and making him feel special. So, if you want to make it work with that so important and extra ordinary person and want to have a romantic and palsy- walsy relation with him then take a look at the following mistakes and make sure that you DON’T commit either of them.

1) Competition

This is considered as the number one mistake in a relation as this changes the love affair into a blazing and fevered relation. Competition between a man and woman in a relation is Evil, it destroys the relation completely. Yes, a man would definitely want a pretty, sexy, beautiful, oh so gorgeous, romantic, family loving and caring (all good qualities) girl but one thing he doesn’t want is competition from her. Yes, all you boastful woman out there, don’t make the mistake of boasting your personal achievements, awards, distinctions, good mathematics etc in front of him. For he doesn’t like it all. He will surely appreciate you for it all and admire it too but when you start boasting about it all, he will feel inferior and think that you are over shadowing him. It’s a threat for him. What you should do instead is talk about his achievements and his success and tell him that you feel proud over his victories. This will make you valuable in his eyes and build togetherness.

2) Be his loving partner and not a dominating mother

Yes, you have the right to think, plan and dream but some of it has to be within yourself. Do not instruct him on what color he should wear, what bed sheet he should have, what things should be kept where, what the wedding menu will be and etc because he doesn’t need a mommy here but a loving partner who does not instruct him but request him. This doesn’t mean you should keep your mouth absolutely shut but if he asks you for your opinion, give him a warm opinion and then you can fix on the do’s and don’ts. Also make sure that you don’t interfere in his personal territory. Give him space. It’s perfectly alright if he wants to keep all his colognes on the dressing table.

3) Comparison

Comparison, it kills the men. They’re head strong and would not appreciate a comparison with any other man on earth. A mistake which woman commonly make is that they compare their current partner with the previous one. It will make him think that he is not good enough or that he is not filled you with enough love and care to make you forget the previous guy. It’s alright to say that he cooks way better than the previous guy you knew (even if you have to go and finger puke in the washroom). Make him feel special, tell him that he is the one and he will be elated.

Also do not compare yourself with his previous girlfriends. You don’t need to do that because if he is with you and not with them, you are probably better then them, right? Be confident in your skin.

4) The “Do you love me?” question

It is a need to be told and assured of your partners love time and again. We all need it, we all need expressions. But if you make the mistake of asking if he loves you, again and again, he would feel suffocated. It will bring doubts in his mind and a feeling of irritation. Also on constant asking he might be forced to question himself and wonder if he really loves you or not. The answer could be heart breaking.

5) Make him feel comfortable among friends etc

No man would like him to be shooed off or talked about as an object of amusement. Because you did not get him from a museum, in fact he is as natural as you are.

6) Indulge in Spontaneity

Do not freak him out with your perfectly planned days and upcoming weeks where you two would go to a movie together, then a dinner, shopping for mommy etc. Excuse me, be spontaneous, do you yourself like being so robotic? Of course not. Try to be spontaneous and trust me they are the best and most pleasurable moments you could have.

7) Use the magic word “Please”

If you want to change his bad habits then do so, it’s great, but do not get onto his nerves with your constant commanding. It’s nice that you are concerned about him but commanding him all the time to not smoke, to not hang out with friends late night, to not bite his nails is going to cause irritation. Say “Please Stop” instead of just saying “Stop”.

Do not monitor him

Do not monitor your guy’s each step and each action. Relax, take it easy babe because he is not a project assigned to you. Let him be if he did not pick your call 5 minutes back but calls you immediately after seeing the missed calls, he is as human as you are, don’t make him feel like a pup who is accountable for every action he takes.

9) Take opinions from him

Instead of going in the store and picking up things you like and wearing them and can’t stop praising your association with the stuff, stop and look at him. Ask him ” Do you think this looks good on me love?” or “Which one do you think i should choose honey?”

10) Do not over use the pronoun “We”

It is good that you two have mutuality but using we is not demanded at all times. We love soft drinks, we don’t hang out late, we don’t wear black, we don’t stay without messaging each other. Avoid such lines and don’t lock him with yourself. You are sure good enough to give him his independence.

Therefore, be such a magnetic personality that they themselves run after you. Many times you would not have the intention of saying something wrong but they might not like it. So be aware. After all, men are hunters, they don’t like spoon feeding, they love chase!
