Because shes worth it…

Just thought I would add a short post regarding this topic. Have started a new blog about it at Purely Passive. If you are remotely interested in earning passive income on a weekly basis, please take a look.

A remedy for a broken heart may seem hard to find when you first break up, especially when you are feeling sad and lonely. You may otherwise be feeling hurt and very angry because someone did this to you? Whatever the situation this article discusses the remedy for a broken heart that helps to fix your relationship and get your ex back!

Breakups have a knack of almost wiping us out. The mixed emotions of anger, fear, hurt, pain and rejection can seem devastating and almost overwhelm us. But, the most important first step you are going to have to take if you want to try to mend your relationship is to understand and accept that you both need a proper break from each other.

The thing you really need to admit is that a break up has happened so being depressed and totally miserable is not going to fix it. You will need a clear head if you want this remedy for a broken heart to be effective. To get to this state of mind you must accept that while you work on mending your relationship, you will have to spend some time apart from your ex.

Another step is for you to initiate a total communication cut off! This means no phone calls, and no text messaging. ( Believe it or not those two thumbs of yours are doing a world of damage to your chances of making up again if you use them to keep typing text messages.) This part of the remedy for a broken heart also means no email, and no accidental meetings that you plan by hanging out in the places you know you ex is likely to show. This is extremely important. It gives your ex space and shows you are serious in keeping your word. It also gives them time to miss you and want you back.

Once you have put the first two steps in this remedy for a broken heart into motion you will need the third step. This step involves you planning in your mind exactly what you will do and say when you have your first meeting with your ex after the break.

Of course getting to step three requires a lot more action than I can fit into this article here. For instance, what is the correct thing to say, how do you arrange that first meeting, what if your ex tries to meet before the period of your planned break is up? Answering these questions properly will make the difference between this remedy for a broken heart working, and between making up or staying apart.

Somehow or other you got out of the starting gate and scored your first date. So how about some tips for first date success. Your killer personality, looks, confidence and razor sharp wit will all come together on the big occasion!

Location, location, location! This mantra is also true in the world of dating and is one of the more crucial tips for first date planning. Think about where you are going to go and remember that the location is going to set the atmosphere and expectation. Whilst your favorite eatery might be a thought, eating in front of each other may not be the most relaxing idea and may cause tension. Seek out a more laid back place to meet, maybe an initmate lounge, a coffee shop, or a scenic park that you know.

One of the most important tips for first date? Choose something that reveals you - your interests, passions, personality. If you are truly adventurous choose something fun like a bungee jump. A fun trip might be to a comedy performance or a theme park zoo. Someone who is more sedentary might try a picnic or a boat trip, whilst someone who likes the fun side would choose a mini golf course, go-carts, bowling or dance.

One of the main tips for first date guys is to make sure that you get to know each other. This means that you cannot head for a formal night out at the opera or even a night at the movie theater as both locations require peace and quiet! Get to know your date by choosing something informal, a luncheon or a drink after work.

It goes without saying that tips for first date etiquette should be remembered at all times. Good manners, great personal grooming, listen and don’t interrupt, don’t talk about yourself and pay attention. Don’t be uptight trying to think of everything. Have fun!

Think about starting a new job and implement some tips for first date success. Don’t talk about politics or religion or anything controversial and don’t bring up old relationships, bad dates, ex-partners or other conversation killers.

The recommended tips for first date kissing depend on how things went. If you feel really good about the person, then initiate a kiss. If the date was okay and youd like a second date, maybe an enthusiastic hug is the way to go. Theres no need to feel obligated to kiss, especially if there are no feelings there. The same holds true for sex on the first date. Even if there is great compatibility, its best to wait, unless of course both your intentions are for casual sex, then by all means go for it. But if its a long-term relationship you seek, slow and steady is the way to go with the emotions.

Some common sense tips for a first date are often overlooked. The most obvious is to be on time. If you are delayed, call and let the person know. Since all your attention should be focused on the moment, be sure your cell phone is turned off. Its also best to schedule a one or two hour date just in case the two of you arent compatible. You can always extend the date if things are going well.

As I’m sure you know, it can be VERY hard to meet women.

This is doubly so if you are shy or have little experience with women.

And it isn’t even that women reject you - it’s that they IGNORE you completely! Every time you go out to a bar or club, you end up standing around alone (or with your equally shy buddies) watching people have a good time.

And trust me - I know this can be SUPER frustrating.

So the key to really improve your success with women is to learn how to get yourself NOTICED.

And I mean noticed in a good way - not the kind of way where you’re out making a fool of yourself running around in a jock strap and singing the lyrics to “Don’t You Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me?”

No. Bad.

The key is to do some things that YOU are comfortable with that are guaranteed to get you noticed by all the hotties you seem to find yourself surrounded by.

Here are five simple things you can do to make sure women will perk up and take notice of you…

1. Dress To Impress

Because most guys base their fashion sense on what doesn’t itch, they tend to overlook one very important attention-getting factor, and that is what they wear can help them get noticed by women.

Understand - women pay a LOT of attention to fashion. Why? Because they try and look good all the time! It’s expected of them. They are raised learning how to dress, accessorize, and put on makeup.

If you are doing something often, you’ll be apt to notice others doing it. So when you take care of details in your look, like they do, they WILL notice that. They spend a lot of time picking out accessories and clothing themselves.

Being well dressed is a fantastic way to make yourself stand out in a crowd. Not just suit tie, but a well thought out ensemble. If you are up to date, and are wearing clothes that fit you well, you will stand up regardless.

You’ll have a leg up on most guys, who don’t bother doing this! And by doing that, you’ll stand out, and the women around you will notice.

At the very least, invest in a cool pair of shoes you wear all the time. Even something as simple as this will help you get attention.

2. Smell Your Best All The Time

Men have fallen out of habit of wearing a good aftershave or cologne. But never underestimate the importance of scent. Just like when you smell a woman’s perfume and get all weak in the knees, they’ll catch a whiff of your cologne and melt inside.

Our sense of smell is one of our most powerful - but overlooked senses. I have actually had women track me down in a club because they were trying to find the source of that good smell they sensed nearby.

And when you’re on a date - fuhgetaboutit! As soon as you get close, you’re guaranteed to hear the girl exclaim “Oh my God, you smell so good!” Seriously, you can almost see the pheromones get released in her brain. It’s wicked!

Remember - play against the laziness of other men. Wearing a nice cologne will set you apart, and actually pull women towards you with no other effort on your part!

3. Smile And Make Lots Of Eye Contact

When I’m out at a bar or a club, I always cringe when I see the guys who stand in the corner, holding their drinks, looking around like a lost little puppy with a big frown on their face.

Too often, guys will gaze at a girl they think is hot, and the minute she looks their way, they turn away to try and act like they weren’t staring at her.

But when you lock eye contact with a girl - guess what? She NOTICES you. Suddenly, a face in the crowd stands out and registers in her brain.

And if you have a big frown or a blank stare on your face - guess what? That eye contact isn’t going to last very long! When your eyes meet, you gotta remember to SMILE!

Smiling is a positive thing. It makes people feel relaxed, happy, and comfortable. The more you smile, the better people feel around you.

If you lock eyes with her and smile, and she smiles back, congratulations, it’s on! This nonverbal conversation will make it easier to start speaking with her.

Continued from Part 1 of this article.

With what I wrote in the last part in mind, here’s something to ponder…

What if I told you there was a way to easily meet a girl, not hide your intentions, and NOT get rejected?

Would that be of interest to you?

If so, read on, because I’m going to show you how to do it…

I’m a very big proponent of approaching women in an indirect fashion.

I like this style of approach because it minimizes your risk of getting rejected.

BUT, I do not think you should continue to hide your true intentions PAST the initial meeting.

Women aren’t dumb, they know exactly why you are approaching them. It’s easy to tell what is going on.

If you happen to convince them differently though, and then try to become romantically interested at a later time, you’ll come across as duplicitous, and untrustworthy.

And trust is the foundation of any good relationship.

So AFTER you meet the girl indirectly, you’ll want to start FLIRTING with her.

If you notice she’s receptive to your flirting and even flirts back - guess what? She’s signaling she’s interested in you!!!

That’s what we call a GREEN LIGHT.

And if she doesn’t respond or flirt back, you haven’t really risked anything, so you can either back out and move on…

OR

You can switch-up your tactics and see if she’ll respond to something else.

Bottom line, you’ll come out on top either way.

Relationship dynamics isn’t rocket science. In fact, if you know just a couple simple secrets, it can be very easy and quite fun.

Not too long ago, most men who got married wore a simple gold wedding band to mark the occasion. These days there are more choices in men’s wedding rings than ever before. Platinum, titanium and tungsten have entered the scene. The traditional look is still available, but the choices are now a lot broader.

Think about traditional men’s wedding rings. They’re usually yellow gold, or even white gold. Sometimes they have a subtle pattern etched in. They’re stylish, classic and attractive.

Then there’s the opposite extreme. For example, a contemporary tungsten band is ultra-hard and lightweight. It’s perfect for those looking for an attractive, reasonably priced ring that stands up well to abuse. They’re highly scratch resistant and can polish to a high sheen that looks a lot like silver.

Another favorite these days is titanium. There are two kinds of titanium: black and light. Both are lightweight, durable and make for a stylish choice in a wedding ring.

The lighter style is a grayish metal that polishes to a subtle shade. It might feature a thin stripe of gold or be inlaid with a diamond.

Genuine black titanium is produced by a special manufacturing process that creates a uniform color throughout. You’ll never have to have it re-plated and it won’t show scratches.

But your options in a men’s wedding ring today go beyond just the choice of metal. TMany men today prefer a smaller width band than those of generations past. For people interested in an attractive and discreet ring, this thin, lightweight style is ideal.

These days, you’re more likely to see a variety of gems in men’s wedding rings, from diamonds to sapphires. The criteria for the stone’s quality are the same as in a woman’s wedding ring. Great cut, flawless clarity, fine color all apply.

To sum it up, a good example of a modern men’s wedding ring is a narrow platinum band with a small oval diamond. Most men these days won’t have any problem wearing a ring like this. Part of the reason is that they’re more comfortable with being fashionable than has been the case traditionally.

The best wedding rings today still incorporate the highest quality features available. Qualities such as durability and the ability to resist scratches are still important. But added to these is a whole new world of style options for men’s wedding rings.

There are so many little details to worry about when planning a wedding some might get forgotten. One tiny detail that often gets overlooked is how to keep guests entertained before the wedding reception “officially” begins. There is no requirement that brides entertain their guests at all. After all, they have already attended your wedding ceremony (which was surely engaging and entertaining, right?) and they will soon get music, food and drink. What more could they want? It turns out, a lot. While the bride and groom are off having pictures taken, the guests are left to their own devices, chatting with other guests and wondering when the buffet will open.

Here are a few options, some tradition, some not so, but still fun. First, you can do the traditional thing and provide guests with drinks and perhaps some light snacks. If the wedding is in the summertime, how about providing lemonade and iced tea? Or if it’s the winter, coffee and hot tea or even hot cocoa depending on the style of your wedding. Providing a light snack isn’t a bad idea, either, and that can be some appetizer-type food or just nuts, especially if the meal will be heavy.

Now, if you want to stray from tradition, there are many options. Some brides opt for entertaining the guests in the truest sense of the word. Clowns, anyone? How about live music? If you want to venture into the fun and funky, consult the party planning pages of a local children’s or parent’s magazine. Here, you can find people who will entertain your children at their birthday parties, but many of them will happily take on wedding jobs. You can hire a clown to make balloon animals for the kids (and adults) in attendance, or to juggle a few things. Some clowns are true entertainers and will happily get the crowd involved by fetching items out of women’s purses and juggling them.

Other non-traditional options for entertaining your guests include hiring a band to play music beforehand. If you plan to have classical music at your wedding, you can have a band come and play covers of current pop songs, or you can simply have your hired band arrive a bit early to entertain guests waiting for the full reception to begin. If there are many children at the wedding, it’s not too expensive to hire a children’s band to sing and entertain the children for a bit. Then if the kids are a bit bored at the reception, they’ll still have the memory of the earlier entertainment with them. In addition, while the children are being entertained, the adults can have a chance to chat and they will surely thank the bride for thinking of them in that way.

Some other options for entertaining your restless crowd before the festivities begin are to include them in the reception before it begins. This is a great time to ask people to sign the guest book and write something meaningful, since they will have more time than they would usually have as they file into the reception hall. If the reception and the wedding ceremony take place in the same location, but the bride and groom are off having pictures taken, it may not seem as if there’s this dilemma of how to keep the guests entertained, but there in fact, is.

In this case, you can have servers circulate with appetizer trays or you can do something more elaborate, such as some of the suggestions above. One popular option doesn’t involve entertaining the guests at all. Say the wedding is being held at a historic house or mansion. During the lull before the reception, guests can be given a tour of the property. If the wedding and reception are both being held at the couple’s new home, a tour of the property might be in order (assuming the guest list is fairly small).

If you’re a single woman looking for a date you have many options going for you. First of all you should know that in the world of online dating women have the upper hand. By all accounts there are more men that use online dating services which means women have more choices of dates, and the men need to fight it out for themselves.

It’s important to define success in your online dating endeavors. Many women go into dating with expectations that are too lofty and this can doom many relationships before they get started.

As a women it’s important you don’t try to rush things or you can quickly turn off your dating partner (this advice also applies for men). In the world of dating, it’s best to remain light hearted and casual at first. You have plenty of time for the relationship to become serious, so make sure you have a lot of fun at first.

Looking for the right online dating service is easy. All you need to do is read some reviews, and then you’re away. The popular services will pop up time and time again so you’ll get to know what web sites are the most popular and successful.

Your profile is the most important part of your online dating success. The information you put in your profile tells you if someone has actually read it before they contact you. There are a lot of men on dating services that refuse to pay for a membership, and they just send their free messages to hundreds of women every day just because they like their photo.

Uploading a photo of yourself will improve your strike rate. If you have a photo on your profile you’ll receive up to 20 times more messages than if you don’t. When you receive more messages you’ll have a much better choice of singles, and that means you’ll have more chance of meeting your perfect match.

When you propose you want it to be totally unique, original and special. You don’t want anything to go wrong. You dont want your wife to be to show off her ring and have it look like every other ring on all the other engaged womens fingers.
