      "body": "More than relaxing on a boat in the middle of a lake fishing, and more than watching sports, men want to get laid. If that sounds like you, it means you're a normal guy.\n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/cute%20girlfriend_zpsvwc5bozo.jpg.html\" align=\"left\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/cute%20girlfriend_zpsvwc5bozo.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\" photo cute girlfriend_zpsvwc5bozo.jpg\"/></a> \n\nBut wanting something and getting it are two different matters. Just because you want something is no guarantee that you'll get it - unless you know the techniques that can help you achieve your goal of getting that hot chick and getting laid. \n\nIf you check out a system like Make Women Want You Now, you'll see the techniques that you can learn to become a highly sought after man around town. You have to understand what you've been doing wrong and what you need to do in order to get it right. \n\nFirst, look at how women react when it comes to the steps that lead up to her making up her mind on whether she's putting out or not.\n\nThe Involuntary Response\n\nWomen don't just have sex with you because you want to. That's one of the biggest lies that you'll ever believe. In fact, women have a healthy lust factor the same way that men do. \n\nThe difference with women, though, is found in the way that the connection is approached. You have to make that connection first and believe it or not, that connection isn't a physical one. \n\nYou need to know how you can create a connection with a woman if you want to get into her pants. This connection is not physical or visual. This connection is an involuntary one from her. \n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/dating%20tips%20for%20nerds_zps5yzq6afx.jpg.html\" align=\"left\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/dating%20tips%20for%20nerds_zps5yzq6afx.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\" photo dating tips for nerds_zps5yzq6afx.jpg\"/></a>\n\nWith an involuntary response, that means that you have to know how to trip a response in her that's chemical based. Inside her emotional brain, a woman has a chemical response when it comes to the opposite sex. \n\nThis chemical response is your golden ticket to sex, but most men don't know about this response. This response is everything that's important because it's this response that you can use that will cause you to get laid by the hottest girls around. \n\nIf you think that she doesn't have the same deep drive as a man, you'd be wrong. She can be just as driven by desire as a man can - but not too many men grasp this because they've never been taught. \n\nTapping into this chemical response leads you to a well of want in a woman. When you tap into that chemical response, a woman loses the ability to not want you back in return. \n\nShe won't be able to help herself because her brain is throwing out all sorts of responses that lead her straight to you. In fact, she'll be so hot for you that she'll be the one doing the chasing and you'll end up having to juggle your sex calendar so that you can fit all the women you'll have into the lineup. \n\nBest of all about this chemical response in her brain is that it makes her a sure thing regardless of you. You don't have a thing to do with it. That means no rejection, and no going home unfulfilled. \n\nWhen you unleash this chemical response in a woman, nothing about you will matter to tip the scales unfavorably. That means that you don't have to be a good looking guy. \n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/cute%20girlfriends%20for%20shy%20guys_zpsfam23qof.jpg.html\" align=\"left\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/cute%20girlfriends%20for%20shy%20guys_zpsfam23qof.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\" photo cute girlfriends for shy guys_zpsfam23qof.jpg\"/></a>\n\nYou don't have to have a fat bank account. You don't even have to be her type. In fact, you can bring zero to the table and you're still going to end up causing her to want to spread those formerly off limits legs just for you. \n\nWomen Are Feelings First, Sex Second\n\nThere's no wonder that when it comes to women, so many men just can't seem to understand them. You may have experienced this barrier in the past and not even realized it. \n\nYou just chalked it up to men and women being different and moved on. But you don't need to do that. If you can grasp the techniques to use to get you want you want. \n\nIt will help you overcome these barriers. The barriers go something like this: you're ready to get laid and so you make your move. You think the timing is right, all systems are go - but you end up getting shut down before you even get to second base. \n\nSo what went wrong? \n\nWhile you were busy thinking about how fast you could get her clothes off, she was sending you a clear signal that she was a no go and you completely missed it. \n\nYes, it's hard to think straight when your sex drive is in high gear and your mind is preoccupied. But if you want to have sex with her, you have to do something first that ensures the outcome of the situation. \n\nRemember the involuntary response we mentioned earlier? That involuntary response is attached to a woman's switch. This switch is something that you have to turn on because it paves the way to that involuntary response. \n\nThe two work hand in hand together to get you what you want. The switch is her emotional trigger and here's how it all ties in with you getting laid whenever you want it. \n\nA man has a drive to be successful in every area of his life. It makes him feel like a man. It gives him self-confidence or swagger if you will. If he's not successful in one area, he feels like a failure in all areas. It's his wiring. \n\nUnlike a man, a woman does not need to be or even feel successful within herself or in any area of her life in order to feel like a woman. She doesn't link her outer success with herself the way that a man does. \n\nBut, she does need something from a man that makes her want to put out. If you don't give her this something, you're not going to be able to switch her trigger on and get to that involuntary response you need to trip. \n\nThis is not rocket science. It's actually very simple and yet time and again, most men miss it. A woman has to feel secure with you or you're not getting anywhere with her. \n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/dating%20tips%20for%20shy%20guys_zpswvmrd56h.jpg.html\" align=\"left\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/dating%20tips%20for%20shy%20guys_zpswvmrd56h.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\" photo dating tips for shy guys_zpswvmrd56h.jpg\"/></a>\n\nThat's pretty simple stuff. When a woman feels like she's around a guy who's safe, it makes her let down her guard. She can be vulnerable with you. This gives you access to her involuntary response. \n\nFeeling safe around a man is what makes a woman horny. It's what does it for her. You'll learn about these safe triggers in systems like Make Women Want You Now and you'll see exactly how to put them in motion. \n\nWhen we say safe, we're not talking about you acting like some guy would who's in the friend zone. This safety is referring her feeling like she can trust you enough to let you in on all her secret desires. \n\nWhen a woman feels safe sexually around a man, not only are you getting laid, but you're going to get laid in ways that will make you want to weep from the sheer satisfaction of it all. \n\nWork the Pre-Selection Factor\n\nPre-selection is a term that means women want you. They want to have sex with you. But the principle is based similar to the way that dominoes work. You know how when you push one domino and they all start to fall over? \n\nThat's the same way pre-selection works. With dominoes, one block always follows another when it's given a push. With pre-selection, one woman wants the man that another woman already has. \n\nAnd this is not an occasional thing. This is an always factor. This is why that you'll see short, ugly, out of shape men be able to cheat on their wives or girlfriends with a hot girl who's willing to give it up any time of the day. \n\nShe wants this unattractive guy simply because another woman did. It's all based on the way that rejection sets a man up for failure. Rejected men get rejected. Accepted men get accepted. \n\nA hot woman that you'd like to have sex with notices that you're not getting turned down by women. This opens the door for you to have sex with other women. \n\nDon't worry about it if you're already in a committed relationship. Women actually desire a man even more if he's already committed to being with someone else. There's a good reason why pre-selection increases your chances of getting laid - and it has to do with the perception women have about men. \n\nMen are driven by testosterone. It makes them crave sex more often than not. This drive often leads a man to have sex with random women regardless of who they are, how they met and sometimes even whether they're pretty and in shape or fat and out of shape. \n\nThey don't care who she is or even if she's already with another guy. What matters to a man is that she's willing. Women, on the other hand, want to have sex with men that don't have a rejection rate. \n\nThe reason for this is because a man who sleeps with women, even if it's a lot of women, is considered a good man. Mainly because he's wanted. He's the guy in high demand and women see that. \n\nThey figure that if others want him, then he has to be a good man. It's crazy, but that's the way that a woman's brain works. \n\nThe Way to Show Interest That Leads to Sex\n\nBelieve it or not, there's a right way and a wrong way to show that you're interested in a woman. If you do it the wrong way, you're going home alone and you can forget about getting laid. \n\nBut if you do it the right way, you'll be able to have your pick among the women that you meet. When a man shows interest in a woman, it can turn her off. Here's why:\n\nThat hot girl knows that you want you when you show interest. What this does is to put the ball firmly in her court. She then controls the game play and decides if you're worth allowing to get close to her. \n\nYou don't ever want to give up control when it comes to showing interest in a woman. You have to show interest, but you have to do it in such a way that the control never leaves your hand. \n\n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/cute%20girlfriend_zpsvwc5bozo.jpg.html\"  align=\"left\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/cute%20girlfriend_zpsvwc5bozo.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\" photo cute girlfriend_zpsvwc5bozo.jpg\"/></a>\n\nYou do this by taking control in a genuine way. Yes, the goal is to get laid - but you don't have to be a jerk to accomplish that goal. Too many men believe that if they act arrogant, women will fall at their feet. \n\nReality is that the woman is thinking what a jerk this guy is. Wanting to get laid does not make you a jerk. But thinking that it's all she's good for does. Plus, that kind of thinking will come out in the way that you interact with her. \n\nYou can use a technique and that's fine but you have to be genuine with the way that you handle your approach. This is especially important if the woman has a high hotness factor because beautiful women can be very picky. \n\nThere are some things that are okay to do and other things are not okay. It's okay and even encouraged that you let her know that other women want you. This behavior ups her interest in you. \n\nNow if you come right out and say that other women want you, she's going to think it's ego talking. You always have to have the proof. You do this by making sure that your online life has plenty of evidence of that. \n\nOn your social media sites, have pictures that show you interacting with and having fun with beautiful women. Dating photos, hanging out at the beach photos or having drinks at a bar with a beautiful woman are great pre-selection hooks. \n\nSo use plenty of those. Make sure that your online life shows that women everywhere are interested in you. Have photos of you interacting with other women on your cell phone photo log. \n\nThis shows the woman you want to have sex with that you're the kind of guy that other beautiful women find desirable. You should also make sure that you show her that you're not a one-dimension kind of guy. \n\nYou do this by showing an interest in her life outside of the bedroom. While this might seem like a bore to you, showing interest outside the bedroom leads to going into the bedroom. \n\nYou should ask questions about what she does for work, and what she enjoys doing in her off time. You should ask her favorite places to hang out and what her favorite foods are. \n\nYou can do this and not have her think you're being too eager. This is simply conversation that's focused on her and it makes her think that you're genuinely interested in her as more than a body - even if you're not really. \n\nThe 3 Steps That Arouse a Woman\n\nWhile a man can go from zero to sixty in just a few seconds when they're ready to have sex, it doesn't work that way for a woman. You have to know the three main techniques to use that arouse a woman and make her want you like she just can't get enough of you. \n\nIf you don't know these techniques, you need to check out the Make Women Want You Now system so that you can learn them. Because if you don't know them, you might find that you get laid hit and miss - but you'll miss more times than you'll hit. \n\nMost men have the mistaken belief that arousal for a woman starts with touch and that it begins before the physical act of sex. But women don't turn it on like a man does. \n\nWhen a woman turns him down for sex, a man thinks that either he blew his chance or the woman is just the kind who doesn't like sex. That's a lie that men believe. \n\nWomen like sex and most of them like it as much as a man does. What they don't like is the clumsy, inept approach that unlearned men use. For example, did you know that for a woman, the slower the buildup, the more powerful the sex?\n\nYou might not understand the importance of this because you've never experienced it. So here's the bottom line. The more aroused a woman is before you even broach the idea of her having sex with you, the greater your chances are that you're going to get laid. \n\nYou have to start approaching her by understanding what her pleasure centers are. You have to work these before you can seal the deal. Then, when you do seal the deal, you can expect sex in a way that you've never experienced it before.",

      "body": "Some men think that dating today is like try to swim across an alligator infested lake. They might make it - and then again, they might not. Of course, there are always those men who make it look super easy. \n\n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/dating%20tips_zpsn14jcd2f.jpg.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/dating%20tips_zpsn14jcd2f.jpg\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Hot Girlfriend photo dating tips_zpsn14jcd2f.jpg\"/></a>All they have to do is exchange a few words with the woman they're interested in and the next thing you know, that guy's social calendar is booked solid. Too many men hesitate to put themselves out there for two reasons. \n\nFirst, they don't think they have what it takes to get the woman they like to say yes. Second, they think that there's some kind of magical secret to picking up women. \n\nThey're wrong on both counts. Any man can get a woman to say yes to a date or more. And there is no magic involved when it comes to the opposite sex. However, there is some knowledge about dating that can help you be more successful when you're approaching a woman. \n\nHer Body Language Speaks Louder Than Her Words\n\nToo many men end up discouraged when it comes to women because they fail to pay attention to the clues. They meet a woman's eye across a crowded room, walk over and introduce themselves - only to have her give a polite excuse and then leave. \n\nPay attention to the nonverbal messages that women send. When a woman is interested, there will be signs. Some of them will be subtler than other signs. You might notice her looking at you and her gaze lingers. \n\nThat's a sign that she's at least willing to have a conversation with you. At this point, some women will take the initiative and approach you. But more than half the time, a woman won't approach a man. \n\nAnother sign that that she's interested is that she'll smile. This means she's receptive and it's up to you to take the next step. Many women will do subtle touching to show a man she's interested. \n\n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/get%20a%20girlfriend%20tips_zpsfs7irowm.jpg.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/get%20a%20girlfriend%20tips_zpsfs7irowm.jpg\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" alt=\"dating tips photo get a girlfriend tips_zpsfs7irowm.jpg\"/></a>She'll touch his arm when she speaks to him. Or she'll lean closer in a more intimate move. Some experts tell men that when a woman flicks her hair, that means she's interested - but this is not always the case. Some women flick their hair out of habit. \n\nIt's good to be able to tell if a woman is interested in you or not because that can help boost your confidence. No one likes to be rejected - and knowing that she's open to meeting and talking to you can build your self-esteem. \n\nHowever, there are times when the woman that you spot across the room makes your jaw drop and you really want to get to know her. But from what you can tell, she shows no sign whatsoever that she's interested. \n\nIn fact, when you look at her, you might doubt yourself and think she's too far out of your league for you to have a chance. This is a myth that far too many good men believe. \n\nCountless women have been so burned by a relationship or are so tired of pickup lines that they give off vibes of not being interested. Having a woman become interested in you is all found in how you approach her. \n\nIf you approach her the wrong way, then you're going to get shut down before you can say more than a few words. And that's sad - because who knows what could have been. So the answer is to learn how to approach a woman successfully. \n\nHow to Approach a Woman\n\n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/hot%20girlfriend_zpshnrcwtpd.jpg.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/hot%20girlfriend_zpshnrcwtpd.jpg\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" alt=\"how to find a girlfriend photo hot girlfriend_zpshnrcwtpd.jpg\"/></a>You don't have to be a player to approach a woman. In fact, though players might be able to pick up a woman, they can't sustain any kind of satisfying relationship because women are flat out tired of players. \n\nThe truth is that you can be yourself when you approach women. You don't have to lie and try to build yourself up into being someone that you're not. You don't have to have any kind of fake approach technique, either. \n\nWhat you do have to know is the art of flirting. This art is as old as the time. It's that back and forth exchange of words or gestures that are all part of the relationship chase. \n\nBoth men and women enjoy this part of meeting someone. Everything is new and exciting and holds a lot of potential. You have to first realize that men and woman are so vastly different when it comes to relationships. \n\nYou might be thinking, \"But I don't want a relationship. I just want to pick up a woman.\" That's how your mind is working, but a woman is looking at you and wondering if you're long term material in many instances. \n\nYou'll be sized up at the same time you're sizing her up. If you fail to measure up during the time she's thinking about this, wondering if you're long term material, you can kiss picking her up goodbye - much less anything more than that. \n\nIf you see a woman in a bar and she's been hit on repeatedly and turned down every guy that's offered to buy her a drink, you might think that you don't have a chance. \n\nBut the problem is more women get hit on at a bar than any other place. She's not playing hard to get. It could be that she's become a little jaded because she's heard so many lies and hype.\n\n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/get%20a%20girlfriend_zpsegghp61c.jpg.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/get%20a%20girlfriend_zpsegghp61c.jpg\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" alt=\"how to get a girlfriend photo get a girlfriend_zpsegghp61c.jpg\"/></a>You have to be different. You need to act like a gentleman. Show awareness of how your actions might affect her. For example, if you walk up to a woman from behind and get her attention by tapping on her shoulder or speaking, this can put her on the defensive. \n\nIt's always better to let a woman see you approach. If she has her back toward the room, walk up beside her, rather than behind her. Speak kindly and don't be crude or vulgar. \n\nThe Art of Conversation\n\nThe biggest reason that so many men end up frustrated when they try to pick up a woman is because they try so hard yet can't figure out where they went wrong when they keep getting a no rather than a yes. \n\nNinety percent of the time, this failure is found in the way that a man tries to talk to a woman. When a man is interested in a woman, he'll sometimes open up the conversation and start talking. \n\nAnd he'll talk and talk and talk until she's thinking what a bore he is. But the guy is thinking if he tells her all about himself, he'll appear interesting and she'll see how great the idea of the two of them going out is. \n\nWhen men do this, not only do they tend to ramble on about stuff that makes women's eyes glaze over, but they fail to realize that the woman isn't truly listening. \n\nHer eyes are darting around, looking for a way to extricate herself from the conversation. What a man should do is to stop focusing on himself. Stop trying to impress her and stop sounding like an overeager puppy. \n\nWhen you try too hard, it doesn't impress a woman. In fact, it backfires. She'll see you as too needy and cut the conversation off. If this sounds like something that's happened to you more often than not, it's time to change your approach. \n\nYou have to forget about trying to impress her and let her draw her own conclusions. She's going to anyway. When you're having a conversation with a woman, you need to look her in the eye. \n\nIf you let your gaze travel lower, you're not winning any points. Women hate it when men start talking to them, especially when meeting for the first time, and immediately stare at their chest. \n\nThis is the area where most men drop the ball. They just don't know how to have to a conversation with a woman. It's a lot different than talking to your buddies. Women not only are more emotional, but they will look for deeper meaning in a conversation than what might actually exist. \n\nBut don't make the mistake of thinking that just because a woman is more emotional that she's not as intelligence or capable of seeing beyond a pick up line. \n\nWomen know the lines men use in conversation, so forget about those and aim for genuine conversations instead. The way to have a winning conversation with a woman is fairly simple. \n\nYou have to show interest in her, not her body. Be interested in her life. Find out what she does for work - what her hobbies are. You can ask questions about her beliefs in certain trending topics. \n\nIf she's responding in short, cryptic answers, she could feel threatened by all of the questions you're asking, as if you're too nosy. For every good guy that tries to pick up a woman, there are five weirdoes who've already tried, so that could explain her caution. \n\nMen ultimately want to have conversations that lead back to his or her place. That's not a negative notation about men. It's a biological factor in the way men are built. \n\nBut women want to have conversations to be heard, to be understood. When a woman feels that a man has heard her, that he's understood her, she'll be more open to going home with him or with dating him. \n\nDon't Be Afraid to Act like a Man\n\n<a href=\"http://s345.photobucket.com/user/dave_fletcher1/media/15815595_zps2i4qul07.jpg.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p366/dave_fletcher1/15815595_zps2i4qul07.jpg\"align=\"left\"  border=\"0\" alt=\"dating advice photo 15815595_zps2i4qul07.jpg\" ></a>Despite all of the things you might have read in articles or in books that talk about how a woman wants a sweet man who will worship the ground she walks on, women don't always want that. \n\nYou know why the movies that are known as \"chick flicks\" are so popular among women and their friends? Because the hero acts like a man and he treats the heroine like a woman. And maybe there's some tension between them at first - a chase.\n\nWomen want men who don't pretend to be something they're not. They want a man who will be kind and treat her with respect, not one who hands over his man card. \n\nWomen don't want to lead or follow when it comes to relationships - even short term pick up ones. They're looking for an equal partner - a man who isn't afraid to stand up for her, for what he believes in and one who won't lose himself just to make a score or keep a relationship. \n\nIf you're interested in picking up a woman, don't view her as someone who's there to make your life easier. Too many men view women as compassionate (and they are) but when you meet a woman, don't dump all of your dirt on her. \n\nShe's probably got enough to deal with without carrying around your problems, too. Besides that, if you start treating her like you can \"tell her anything,\" that causes all of the mystery to leak from the relationship. \n\nThere's nothing for her to discover about you because you've told her everything on the first date. When you make a woman feel sorry for your tough lot in life, or you go on and on about yourself, you're on dangerous ground - because this is the fast track to the friend zone. \n\nRegardless of whether things are rough for you or not, or if you just like talking about yourself, don't treat the woman you're interested in like your therapist - or you might find that she suggests you see one. \n\nIf you're trying to pick up a woman, there are certain things you can say or do that will get her attention. You can compliment her. Tell her that her hair looks nice. \n\nComment on her perfume or what she's wearing. Most women don't get compliments. Not because men don't think about it, but because they don't say it. Making romantic comments and performing romantic gestures mean a lot to women. \n\nThey make you stand out as a man, because the majority of men don't think along these lines - so women really notice when it happens. These gestures can be simple things like opening up a car or restaurant door for her, helping her with her coat, etc. \n\nIt's not that she's not capable of these things, but it makes you more attractive when you do gentlemanly things like this. If you're trying to pick up a woman, you want to avoid those old eye-rolling pick up lines. \n\n\"Come here often?\" or \"I couldn't help but notice you\" are both lines that will turn off most women. She's heard those a hundred times or more. Don't use pick up lines. \n\nAct like a man - even when you're trying to pick up a woman. It's okay to say, \"I'm not very good at approaching women, but I am good at two-stepping/swing dancing, etc.\" \n\nJust say something that you'd normally say. And if you're thinking of saying something along the lines of, \"Want to go back to my place?\" to a woman you just met and haven't really even talked to, then you've already blown it. \n\nComing on to a woman that you haven't even put any effort into getting to know, even if it's a brief attempt, isn't manly. It makes you look desperate and women will run from it. \n\nConfidence Helps You Seal the Deal\n\nNot only does a woman's body language speak louder than her words, but so does yours. It's okay if you're (by nature) the kind of guy who's shy. But, unfortunately, that doesn't translate well in the dating scene. \n\nThose shy, quiet guys who never know what to say or how to act only end up with the women they want in the movies. It's not like that in real life. In real life, it's the guy who has confidence in himself who ends up taking home the girl or getting into a dating relationship with her. \n\nOf course, habits of a lifetime can be difficult to break - especially if you've experienced one round of rejection after another. If you're not sure that you have the confidence that you need and this fear is holding you back, then you need to get some help to overcome this. \n\nThere are plenty of great programs that help you learn dating tips and techniques that will bolster your self-confidence. Many studies have shown that when a man isn't confident, it can be traced back to internalizing criticism and rejection. \n\nThis causes a man to develop a negative belief about himself that manifests itself in his actions. Men who have a lack of confidence walk differently, they talk differently and they often go home alone because they're afraid of yet another rejection. \n\nHere's something that you might not realize. There are women out there who are experiencing the exact same thing that you are. They are women who don't know what to say or how to act - and they want to date, they want to go home with the guy - but they end up going home alone. \n\nThe key to overcoming a lack of confidence is found in doing whatever it takes to develop better self esteem. You do this by becoming good at the very thing that you feel you're weakest at. \n\nFor some men, this will be having a conversation with a woman. For other men, this will be in the art of the follow through. By learning how to be become confident, you'll discover that it's easier to approach women with ease. \n\nIt will also be easier to get them to go back to your place. Plus, you'll find plenty of women for both short and long term dating. You can find this confidence through online courses, through programs, by self-help materials, experience and more.",

      "body": "Dating isn’t easy when you first meet someone. You want to make a good impression, but those first few dates can sometimes be awkward. When you’re trying to talk to someone you don’t know, there can often be a lag in conversation as you try to figure out what to say. \n\nIf you’ve ever been on one of those dates when it seemed like everything just kind of went south, there is something you can do to change that for the future. And, you probably already have this tool handy but didn’t realize just how effective it could be to help you get the girl. \n\nThat tool is your sense of humor - and it works to help you land the girl that you want, whether you’ve just started dating or you’ve been dating a few weeks. Many guys tend to clam up and conceal their sense of humor, but it’s one personality trait that is most attractive to women. \n\nWhy Women Say the Men They Date Must Have a Sense of Humor\n\t\nIf you check out dating sites, more often than not, you’ll see that what women are looking for, even above looks in a man, is a sense of humor. If you doubt that humor is really what women want, think of all the funny leading men in Hollywood who don’t have the star power good looks, yet women flock to their movies. \n\nIt’s because they’re funny and funny can beat out attractiveness more often than not. A man with a sense of humor is a quality that most women look for because having a sense of humor can make any situation easier to handle. \n\nWhen something goes wrong on a date, he’s not always looking at the negative side, throwing his hands up or worse, having a temper tantrum. A man with a good sense of humor recognizes that life doesn’t always go according to plan and he can roll with that. \n\nBecause he’s adaptable, this draws women to him. Women are attracted more by personality and behavior than they are the physical appearance. A man with a sense of humor is by far more confident than a man who has little sense of humor. \n\nWomen recognize this confidence and are drawn to it. Believe it or not, there’s a lot of power in having a sense of humor. A woman enjoys being around a man who can laugh at the absurdities of life. \n\nWomen like this because they know that when a relationship hits a rough patch, a man with sense of humor will always find the positive in it. He’ll find something to laugh about - even in the toughest of times. \n\nHe’ll find a way to help make her laugh. Men with a sense of humor can keep a relationship fresh and lighthearted. These kinds of men are usually excited about life and always have something that they’re looking forward to. \n\nWomen like the idea of having a man who doesn’t get bogged down by life and all of the trying things that can go on. When a crisis hits, a man with a sense of humor has better coping skills than a man who doesn’t. \n\nA sense of humor helps a man look for a way around a situation and if he can’t find it, then he’ll find a way to lighten the burden. Studies have shown that people with a sense of humor are highly intelligent. \n\nThey’re often witty as well as being real in a world filled with posers. Women have had enough of men pretending to be something that they’re not. A man with a sense of humor is at ease with himself and others around him. \n\nHe doesn’t have to pretend to be someone else in order to feel comfortable. This sense of being at ease translates into confidence. He can be himself whether it’s just the two of them or whether they’re in a social situation. \n\nPlus, women know that a man who has a good sense of humor is never boring. He’ll be fun to hang with alone or at a party. A man with a sense of humor not only knows how to lighten any situation, but he also knows how to use it during intimacy to deepen the connection. \n\nWomen long for a man that they can be themselves around. And one that has a sense of humor is one that they know they can laugh with because, while he can be serious, he won’t take things so seriously that he makes life a drag. \n\nWomen want men with a sense of humor because not only do they view these men as more fun, but also as having more long term potential. This is because men with a sense of humor have a higher playfulness level than men who are more serious. \n\nThey’re more likely to not be as stressed as men who never really learned to laugh at themselves or at life. A man with a sense of humor is not only witty, but he pays more attention to the world around him - and that includes the woman in his life. \n\nWomen pick up on this and it’s more important to them than physical appearance. This is why you’ll often see a beautiful woman out with a guy who looks like there’s no way he should be with her. \n\nStudies have shown that couples who know how to laugh together are happier and more fulfilled than couples who don’t. So if you want to get the girl, be sure and develop your sense of humor. \n\nWhat Humor Is Appropriate? \n\nUsing humor is a great way to break the ice and get to know someone, but you need to know how to use it. A sense of humor isn’t just one type of humor. A man can have different types of humor. \n\nThere can be the type of humor that shows a man doesn’t let annoyances build up. He laughs more often than not and people enjoy being around him. This is a way of looking not only at things that can make you laugh individually, but at things that make you laugh as a couple. \n\nLaughing together with the girl that you want to get is not only appropriate humor, but welcomed humor. Laughing with her is one thing. Laughing at her over something that bothers her is another. \n\nWhen a man laughs with a woman, it’s because he’s supporting something they both enjoy. But when a man laughs at a woman and it’s something that upsets her, that’s never appropriate. \n\nAn example of this is laughing at her choice of clothing or laughing because she fell down. It’s especially more of a deal breaker if she fell down and got hurt. Believe it or not, some men finds those things funny, and it’s an instant turn off to a woman. \n\nHumor is appropriate when it’s a connected humor. You’re both laughing at a private joke between the two of you. That’s appropriate. Laughing at a joke or something crude one of your guy friends says about her is never appropriate. \n\nShe won’t think it’s funny if you share that any more than you would think it’s funny if her friends were laughing at you. Laughing at a funny movie together is appropriate. Making your date the butt of a prank isn’t. \n\nAn example of this would be using juvenile jokes such as making farting noises when she sits down. Not only will you not get the girl, but she’ll think you’re acting like you’re in the first grade. \n\nHumor that’s appropriate is humor that’s not offensive. A man with a sense of humor doesn’t have to rely on saying mean or funny things. Jokes about body parts, religion, different cultures or races aren’t funny. \n\nThey’re offensive. Making fun of someone with a disability or someone who has a deformity isn’t appropriate humor and making jokes at someone else’s expense will only make her think you’re a jerk. \n\nHumor toward yourself is funny as long as you don’t end up using so much of it that you make yourself look like an incompetent fool. Women love men who aren’t afraid to poke fun at themselves because it shows that he has strong confidence. \n\nA man who laughs at himself is viewed as friendly and charming more so than a man who’s trying too hard to impress a woman by all his accomplishments. Sarcasm is something that men want to be careful with. \n\nWhile being snarky can be funny, it has its moments and if you pick the wrong moment, you’ll blow it with the girl that you’re interested in. This is because sarcasm can have a bite to it. \n\nIt can make a man sound like he’s making cutting remarks instead of using humor. Only use sarcasm if it’s clear that you’re not making fun of other people or putting your date, or women in general down in any way. \n\nAt all costs, you want to avoid using a sense of humor to share bathroom jokes. While guys will roll with laughter and slap each other on the shoulder at bathroom talk, most women don’t find this even remotely funny. \n\nIn fact, they think it makes you sound uneducated. So if your sense of humor is to crack bathroom jokes, you might want to rethink your strategy, especially on a first date. Humor is also not appropriate if you’re the only one who gets it. \n\nThis usually happens when a man is talking about a book or a movie or a situation that he’s familiar with but the date isn’t. You want to make sure that your sense of humor covers something that’s familiar to her - something that she’ll get and laugh along with you. \n\nWhen Is Humor Right to Use?\n\nHumor is right to use when you’re really interested in the girl and feel that the interest is reciprocated. If you can make her laugh, it will increase the potential that the girl is going to fall for you. \n\nBut you have to remember to be yourself. If you don’t have a sense of humor, it takes practice to not sound like you’re trying too hard. You want to be funny and witty, but not so witty that you end up stuck in the friend zone. \n\nHumor is right to use when you want to get the girl if you talk about something funny that you did that you didn’t mean to be funny. When a man has a sense of humor and uses it in his dating life, it helps women relax around him, to feel like they, too, can be themselves. \n\nIn turn, this lowers a woman’s guard and she’ll be more open to you, and more open to saying yes to more dates in the future. Though you can use humor throughout the date, there are three specific times you’ll want to use humor. \n\nThe first time that you’ll want to use humor is during the introduction. This is because using humor will make you stand out in her mind. But remember that a pickup line usually comes across as a pickup line even if you try to make it funny. \n\nHumor is something entirely different. Don’t look at it as being about you if the thought of using humor makes you nervous. Look at it as being about her. You’re trying to break the ice and put her at ease. \n\nKeep in mind that while you’re using the humor, you don’t want her to see you as friends only. Make sure that she knows you’re flirting, not just entertaining her from the get go so that you establish the boundaries of where you want the date to go.\n\nThe second time that you’ll want to use humor is when talking about yourself as far as what you’ve accomplished in life. This is because too many men brag so much about themselves that they come across as arrogant. \n\nNo woman wants to date a guy who’s full of himself. So use humor to your advantage. If you have a long list of accomplishments, there’s nothing wrong with sharing that, but to keep from sounding like you’re arrogant, add something funny. \n\nSay something like, “And I also save the world in my spare time” and she’ll know that you’re ambitious, yet funny. Two things that a woman really likes about a man. The third time you want to make sure you use humor is at the close of the date. \n\nToo many men find that a date turns awkward at the end. They don’t know whether to lean in for a kiss or if it’s too soon. It can be hard to read a woman’s body language. This is where humor can help you. \n\nYou can say something funny. Something along the lines of being a guy can be tough. You never know whether to go in for a goodnight kiss or not and instead, kick yourself all way the way home because you didn’t even try, but with humor. \n\nWomen appreciate a guy who can navigate the awkward parts of a date transition smoothly. Those are the guys that always get the second date. \n\nWhen Should You Be Serious?\n\nThere’s a time for humor and there’s a time to be serious when you’re trying to get the girl. Here’s something that you’ll want to remember. If it’s something serious to her, it should be something serious to you. \n\nIf she laughs about her job, then it’s okay to be funny about that. But if her job is something that she’s worked hard to get and she’s proud of it and doesn’t say anything even remotely funny about it, then you shouldn’t either. \n\nYou should be serious if she mentions an ex who was a jerk to her. Cracking a joke when she’s opening up to you about a guy from her past is a foolish move. When a woman does this, she’s telling you because she’s trying to find the ground where you stand. \n\nIf you think the way that the ex treated her is wrong or not, always be serious whenever a woman is being vulnerable around you. You should be serious whenever you’re talking about subjects that can be hot button conversation bits. \n\nFor example, if she says something about one of her family members, you don’t want to jump on that bandwagon with a joke. You’re still a stranger to her and while it might be okay for her to say something about her family and even to crack a joke, you don’t have that right. \n\nAnd what will end up happening is she’ll get defensive. So don’t make jokes or try to be funny about a woman’s family. It’s okay for you to share funny things or insights about your own family, but not hers. \n\nBe serious when you meet her friends for the first time. Save the humor until you know them better. They don’t know you and this is the time when they’ll be checking you out to see if they think you’re a good idea for their friend. \n\nFriends have a lot of influence. You won’t want them to think that while you’re funny, you’re so funny you couldn’t possibly be good at a serious relationship in the future. Be serious if the dating relationship goes to the next level and you start sleeping together. \n\nWhile it’s important for a couple to laugh together, you also want to show her that you have a serious side, a romantic side that connects with her during intimacy. Finally, be serious when you have an argument. \n\nWhile humor can help ease tension, it can also come across to her that you’re not taking her seriously, that you’re not really listening to her and that’s a good way to bring about the end of a relationship. \n\nIf you’re not sure whether you have a good sense of humor, ask some of your close friends and family members. See if women react with a nervous smile, like they’re feeling awkward, or if they’re genuinely laughing along with you. \n\nDon’t use crude humor, sarcasm or stale jokes. Just learn how to be light-hearted about things. Make sure you’re not “on” 24/7, though. A sense of humor is a great personality trait to have, but it shouldn’t be your only one, either.",
