When you are looking for a date there are several things to keep in mind. There are many things you should look for in a potential date, but these are the top three to keep in mind!

Attraction

You shouldn’t focus as much on a woman’s looks as you should on how much you are attracted to her. Sometimes a woman who does not have a beautiful face may have a rocking body that really attracts you to her. Give a girl a chance to see if there is any attraction there. If so, then you will know to look for some of the other traits!

Intelligence

No guy wants to date a dummy and most women aren’t. However, before you ask a girl out you will want to feel her out to some degree to see if she is on your intelligence level. If you are really smart and she isn’t then she might get on your nerves after about 15 minutes. A quick conversation will help you learn if she is on your level or not.

Personality

You may like a girl who is outgoing and chatty or you may prefer a girl who is laidback and quiet. You can determine a girl’s personality quite easily from a distance by watching how she interacts with others. Pay attention and you will be able to determine if a girl measures up to your standards or not.
You may have other things you are looking for in a date, too, but those are probably things you won’t find out until you have been on several dates. Things like how many kids she wants to have and where she wants to settle down are all questions left for later on in a relationship. The top three things will guide you to the best girl to ask out on a date for you. Then, you can figure everything else out!

No one likes breaking up but revenge is not always the answer. While you may feel like the only thing that is going to make you feel any better is to plaster that video you shot of him when he was locked out of the house in his underwear all over YouTube, in the long run that quick little burst of pleasure is not long lasting and you will be back to square one quickly.

The best revenge that you can possibly get is to get yourself over the breakup and move on. When your ex sees you looking fine and enjoying yourself without him or her, that will truly be sweet revenge. So, follow these tips and get your revenge started.

1.    Give yourself time to grieve. You need to feel the feelings and experience them to be able to let them go. The longer you put off this process, the longer it will take so dig the chocolate ice cream out of the freezer and cry your heart out.

2.    Get a makeover. Nothing will make you feel hotter after a break up than making a change. Do something drastic that he would have hated.

3.    Keep a journal. Write out how you are feeling and get it out of your system.

4.    Start cleaning. One great way to help yourself work through a breakup is to do some spring cleaning, even if it isn’t spring.

5.    Get yourself to the gym and work out all those disappointments and frustrations. The endorphins released while you are exercising will immediately put you into a better frame of mind and you will get healthier in the process.

6.    Rely on your friends for support. Rally the troops and have a good old fashioned slumber party just for the girls.

7.    Keep your schedule the same. Continue on with life as if nothing is different. Go to work, go to school, do the grocery shopping. Keep things as normal as possible.

8.    Make a list of all your ex’s bad traits. Instead of sitting around and focusing on what you love about him, think about what you didn’t love about him. Then, move on to number nine.

9.    Be grateful for what you have. Remember to be thankful for the family and friends that are still in your life helping you through your breakup.

10.    Get rid of anything that even remotely reminds you of your ex. Not only will you have a lot more storage space if you do but you won’t drive yourself to distraction with your memories. Clear out the CD with your song on it and toss that teddy bear he won for you at the fair.

11.    Be selfish for awhile. Do what you need to do for yourself. Don’t worry about your friends or your family and especially don’t worry about how your ex is doing. It’s all about you.

12.    Remember to have faith in yourself. Remind yourself constantly that you are a good, worthy person and you deserve to have a relationship with someone that realizes that.

13.    After the quick fix of ice cream to get over the initial drama, move on to healthier foods that will keep you feeling your best.

14.    Get a massage. Understand that you are going through a difficult time and little things like a massage can brighten your day just a little bit.

15.    Remind yourself that you like you and being alone with you is ok. If you like spending time with yourself, other people will too.

16.    Do something fun. Do the things that you stopped doing as much of when you started dating your ex because he didn’t enjoy them as much as you did.

17.    Figure out what you need to learn from the relationship so you don’t repeat the same mistakes.

18.    Stop talking about your ex. While it is important to grieve and be able to freely express your emotions, talking about your ex 24/7 is not going to help you move on.

19.  Hit the playing field again. Go out there and explore your options. See what you may have been missing.

20.  Recognize when it may be time to take a chance on love again.

Moving on after a breakup may seem like the last thing on your mind but keep in mind you don’t have to marry anyone. Enjoy your life, follow your passions and this breakup will quickly become just another distant memory that makes you think that maybe everything does really happen for a reason.

Men always wonder who they should ask out when they are in a crowded restaurant or bar and there are many attractive women. Men who are frequently turned down are not asking out the right women and there could be plenty of women interested in dating them. The following suggestions will help any guy find the right girl to ask out and increase his chances of having her say “yes”!

Eye Contact

Look around the room on a regular basis and see what women are checking you out. When you make eye contact with someone keep checking back to see if she looks back at you. Sometimes, eye contact is inadvertent. Other times, it is not. When a woman is making eye contact with you it is because she is flirting with you. Keep looking at her to catch her gaze, without staring at her. When it is obvious she is interested in you then you may want to walk over and say “hi” or be more subtle and order her a drink through the waiter.

Smiles

Women who smile at you are generally saying, “I like you.” Women are not going to seek men out and give them their biggest smile if they aren’t interested. Generally, women who aren’t interested will do their best to look away and fidget to try to get out of your presence. They send the “don’t talk to me” vibe, so take this to heart. Women who smile are showing you they want to keep talking and that they like talking to you. Give these women more of a chance to see if they could be a potential date for you.

Touching

When a girl touches you several time in an evening it is probably her way of flirting with you. One touch does not count because it really could be by accident. However, multiple touches should signal you to the girl’s interest. Notice every little touch so you know who likes you and who doesn’t!

Keep this information in mind the next time you are out on the prowl. It might help you choose between the girl who is interested in you and the girl who wants nothing to do with you!

The dating scene can be hard. This is especially true if you are looking for the special someone in a bar. Any bartender can tell you they have over heard a lot of different pick up lines. Some of them are really lame and super cheesy. However, there are a lot that are really funny. Here are 20 of the finest:

20.    I may not be the best looking guy in here but I am the only one talking to you.

19. Congratulations, you were just voted hottest girl in the room. Grand prize- a night with me.

18.    Hi, will you help me find my lost puppy? I think he went into this cheap hotel room across the street.

17.    Did you just fart…….. cause you blew me away.

16.    Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?

15.    Can I even get a fake number?

14.    This is incredible. This is the first time that this has ever happened to us. (What?) Each one of my 27 personalities found you cute!

13.    Do you know the difference between conversation and sex? (when she answers no) Oh do you want to go have a talk?

12.    You look like my fifth wife.

11.    Screw me if I’m wrong, but I could swear you were Julia Roberts.

Number one and our personal favorite:

Have you ever had a 15 or 20-minute conversation with a girl and thought all was going well only to have her say something along the lines of, “It was nice talking to you, but I need to find my friends…”? If this has happened to you then you need to know what happened. Generally, the girl was interested in you enough to have a conversation, but she never committed to the conversation so she left you abruptly. The following suggestions will help you get a woman who is chatting with you to commit to something longer and more involved.

Sit

Most of the time you will meet a girl and start chatting while you are standing up. A great way to get her to commit to the conversation is to have her sit down with you. Find some chairs at the bar or a couch along the wall and sit down to chat.

Dance

You may consider asking a girl to dance after a few minutes of chatting. Doing this will help her commit to more interaction with you and the simple act of dancing will help her feel more committed to you.

Leave

If you have a drink or a jacket, leave it with her and quickly run to the bathroom or to buy more drinks. This makes her miss you enough to want to stick around for a while longer after you return!

Trade Rounds

When a woman buys you a drink, even if you are trading rounds, she will feel a commitment to you. Ask her to trade rounds by buying the first. Then, you buy enough time that she has to make it through two rounds with you and by then she will probably realize you are cool enough that she wants to stick around for more rounds.

Go to Another Bar

If you really want a girl to commit the evening to you then take her to another bar or location. She will actively make the decision to visit another locale with you and realize she is committing herself for the evening, and possibly longer!

You don’t need to have any more 20-minute conversations only to lose the girl again. Use these tips to help you get the girl to commit to you for much longer than a few minutes!
