Your Attitude Counts
When it comes to seducing a woman, attitude plays a very big role in how successful, or unsuccessful you are. If you have a positive attitude you’re more likely to attract women more easily than a guy with a negative attitude. Being positive and upbeat shows in nearly everything you do, as does being negative and glum. Women are much more likely to choose the positive, upbeat guys.
First, a positive attitude reflects confidence and self-respect. As we already discussed, confidence and self-respect are vital. A positive attitude also directly affects how other people feel when they’re around you. For example, have you ever had a friend or co-worker who was always down or pessimistic? If you have, did you notice that after a while his or her mood started making you feel down or uncomfortable or irritable? Chances are it’s happened to all of us. So remember, if for no other reason than to not be a dark cloud hanging over everyone’s head, try your best to be positive and have a good attitude.
But it goes much further than that. When you’re trying to make your best impression on a woman, being negative will not work. You have to feel good before you can make anyone else feel good. You have to radiate the same kinds of feelings you want to receive. If you’re not giving off those positive vibes we’ll pick up on it and most likely steer clear of you.
The bottom line: women like to find a man who’s stable. Part of what women judge stability on is your work. No, this doesn’t mean you need to be a rocket scientist. It simply means that if you’re changing jobs every couple of months, or getting let go for poor attitude or poor performance, which is directly affected by your attitude, then we’re going to think twice before we get involved with you. Remember, women are looking for a partner; a 50 – 50 relationship.
Growing Online Dating Relationships
Just like regular real-world relationships, online relationships need tending, to grow over time. Here are some quick growing tips.
1. Take time and make time. Does your online date get in touch with you regularly? Do you do the same? Neglecting virtual meetings can be considered abuse or neglect, so treat each other’s time with respect. If it’s lacking, might mean time to move on.
2. Communication needs to “feel” right for both of you. If one of you is too pushy about meeting, for instance, that can give off bad vibes. So don’t rush. Take time to learn more about each other and develop trust.
3. Respect each others privacy. Don’t share personal email addresses or digital photos online, for example, if your online date sent you the information in confidence.
4. Share special online and offline fun times. Online – send greeting cards, links to favorite places to upload digital photos of your favorite pet, download music and video clips, post on favorite forums of interest. Offline- if you’re exchanging addresses or post office boxes, send print greeting cards and postcards, small items from your area like a key chain with your state bird.
Tend your online relationship. Water it with care and over time it can sprout and grow.

Dating Tricks for Women
Establishing eye contact with your date will let him know
that you are listening. Although you’re not interested in
his babbling, just look straight at him.
You’ll know when would be the right time to talk. Tell him
things about your wonderful self. Make your stories long.
If it seems that he’s not listening, maybe he is not really
interested in you.
Most men do not like silent girls. Other men do not like
very annoying and loud ones. Most men are picky, and that
is just the way they should be.
Don’t be afraid of this fact. All you have to do is speak
out and he will hear you for sure. Don’t be afraid to be
yourself while you’re out on a date with him.
Be natural yet not exaggerated. Keeping silent will make
you invisible to him. Loud mouthing will surely be annoying
for your date.
Sometimes, it’s not a bad idea to make the first move. If
you feel that your date is too shy, make the first move. It
may help him step up then take over from there. Don’t be
scared to take risks and turn it into opportunities!
Sometimes, most men can’t read signs. They might just be
inexperienced or simply stupid. On the other hand, maybe
they’re both.
They simply want the woman to come up and say a few magic
words. Now if you happen to like a man that obviously likes
you but cannot come up with the right words, make the move
and try asking him out.
It won’t hurt to try doing the first move. After all, who
does the first move doesn’t matter in times like these
since what matters most is for you to express what you
really feel for your date.
