on 7/11/2007 you shold always expect the unexpected,,,anything happens in this world. Youll never know that the gurl next to you is probably your dreamgurl.Make sure that youre look presentable and always be attentive and never ever loose your mind,,juz look around and prepare to approach your future wife/husband..whehehe

on 6/10/2007 No, simply because complimenting a girl demonstrates too much interest without her doing anything. This is assuming you don't know a girl who you've just decided to interact with and started off with a compliment. Never compliment a woman for her looks in the initial interaction unless you are already in a relationship with her. She's been told that many times and she doesn't need you to tell her that again. You need to look beyond her looks.

on 7/31/2006 I am not a great looking boy, but I seem to do alright because I apparently sound and look genuine. If you act genuine around a women, she will pick up on that and respect you more for your honesty. Don't compliment on features, especially if you know the girl, use stuff you know about them and compliment them on stuff they care about. This will show them you have been listening and caring about them for a long time.

Respect all women, they are humans not objects, be sincere toward their feelings, don't make them feel uncomfortable - that's the worst thing to do.

on 3/29/2006 When the conversation is almost over, just ask her out. Don't make her feel that she has to either run away or keep making conversation with you. Ask her if you can call her or ask her out for that weekend.

on 2/21/2006 If a woman is very attractive and you want to compliment her on it, be very specific. What makes her unique? Consider not complimenting her at all on her looks- she's not responsible for them, and she may not care to hear how beautiful she is for the thousandth time. If you must compliment her looks, try being nimble. Try to get to know her so you can compliment her intellect or personality. I have been complimented hundreds of times on my looks, but the compliments I really treasure are ones about things I have control over, like my mind, dress and actions! Nothing is more flattering than being appreciated for more than a pretty face.

on 1/25/2006 Women are never impressed by how much you can drink. Don't make the evening about drinking.

on 1/25/2006 Girls will notice a man more often and more intensely if he is a snappy dresser. It's a fact that most girls like a man who knows how to dress. Women don't like white T-shirts, or unkempt hair. Be sure to have your hair combed, cloths on right, and then work your magic.

on 1/16/2006 Be presentable 24/7; hair, clothes, shoes, smell, etc. You never know when you'll come across that girl.

on 12/19/2005 When you are with the person you desire, don't control the conversation, let her talk. And always remember; a guy is better seen than heard, unless she asks you for her opinion. Never space out and forget what she is talking about!

on 12/30/2005 Men seem to have no idea how vulnerable women feel. The average modern woman has a masculine guard, a tough exterior, but somewhere in there underneath the hard exterior is a gentle lady who has not been given permission to relax. And when she's in touch with her feminine side, she feels even more vulnerable. So the supreme compliment, the magic ingredient, is to be helpful. Extended yourself a little, be curious. Women basically don't get too excited by physical compliments because good grooming is a routine, full time job that is slightly arduous and tiresome. So when a guy compliments you on your looks, this only makes us feel under the spotlight and that we have to work a bit harder to keep it up. Personally, the best compliment is to look and not say anything. I find that a major turn on, of course the look should not be creepy from a greasy creep. But be a little old fashioned macho and take a look. Like you were looking and lusting over a nice piece of cake. But not more than 5 seconds, inhale when you do your lusting and she might just jump you.

on 12/15/2005 1. Don't be interested in just her looks, be interested in her actions. It might be fun for a while going "Hey, look at the girl I'm dating. Isn't she hot?" but if you can't stand her personality, then you aren't going to like her.

2. Use more meaningful words. eg: instead of going, "You're pretty." consider using better words like beautiful, stunning, lovely, elegant, radiant, dazzling, divine, majestic. "You're pretty" is what a kid would say to his first crush.

3. I'm sure you've seen it a thousand times, but I'm going to say it again; Be yourself. You can't act like someone else all the time. If you tell them you speak Latin fluently and you don't, what would happen if they asked you to say something? It's nice to have an extra language, but don't fake it. Don't try to be someone you're not.

4. It always helps to be able to do things. If you can dance, sing, play an instrument, your date would probably like it if you were somewhat alone and you danced with her, sang for her or played something for her.

5. When talking to her, don't be like every other guy and look down. Look into her eyes and actually care about what she's saying. If she is just rambling on about stuff you have no idea about, you could kick something hard and say "Ow" It will probably cause her to stop and ask if you are OK. Then you can start a new conversation.

6. Treat her like a human being, not an item. A girl isn't some trophy, she's a person. They want a lot of the same things that we do. They want to be respected and know they have someone they can rely on when something happens. Imagine how good she would feel if something happened, she was crying and you actually cared for her. She would still be upset, but at least she would know that you care about her. Be a friend, not just a boyfriend.

7. Be polite. Use manners. Open doors for her. Pull out her chair and tuck her back in. Ask her if she needs help with anything. Don't burp, fart or scratch yourself around her, no matter how much gas you have or how much they itch. If you absolutely have to, go to the bathroom. The bathroom is like the place where guys can relax. But be nice to her. If she got a haircut, say something about it. If you notice anything else, say something about it. If she did something that she would be embarrassed about, whisper in her ear what happened.

8. Before you congratulate yourself on impressing the girl, stop and realize that she has parents. Don't be nervous around her parents. Be honest, give firm handshakes, use manners, and speak clearly.

on 11/22/2005 All women are different, not every compliment will work. You have to know what kind of girl you're after, and if you don't know her, observe her; actions speak louder. I am not saying don't be yourself, because that's very important, but try to tune yourself to her, think, use your brain. Look for clues, like the way she dresses, who she hangs with, things like that. Don't just go up to a girl who likes to party and hit her up with a boring pick up line. So, think.

on 11/22/2005 Saying something that sounds a little silly or dumb is better than not saying something at all and kicking yourself over it later.

on 11/22/2005 The best compliments come when a guy wants to meet you because of who you are, and not because of what he can get from you. Be honest in what you say, and in your actions. Also, be respectful and have some integrity. Treat her how you would want someone to treat your future wife from the start. Do these things and you'll stand out.
