cause I need red flags and long nights and she can tell
(Part eight in the ongoing dating series. Part seven, on how credibility makes dating easier, last week) I’ve spent most of my prior entries talking about how to repair your own problems. You have to lead an interesting life. You have to be open with yourself and with others. Part of this is to make [...]
meta: dating advice poll
Nothing slated for my ongoing dating advice series (target audience: guys like me) this week. Anything that people particularly want me to address? If not, I’ll post my conclusion next week. Let me know in the comments (either in WP or on LJ).
she’s not into you; she’s into the ideal of
(Part seven of my series on dating. My last entry, on how to deal with the Friend Zone, was last week) Quick one in the dating series this week: I’ve been leafing through The Personal Credibility Factor over the past week. It’s one of those self-help / life-coach books that’s big on assertion and short [...]
at least until the price becomes too high
(Part six of my series on dating. My last entry, on why not to obsess over your crushes, was last week) You see it all the time on dating advice websites. The ones targeted at men anyway. A guy writes in, agonizing over this one girl he knows. He dresses well, he says things to [...]
you can occupy my every sigh
(Part five of my continuing series on dating. Part four: on whether or not online dating is worth it) I’ve talked a lot about the importance of keeping busy. Why you need to expand your social network. Why you need to keep from brooding over failures. Doing these things increases the odds of finding a [...]
you can rent the space inside my mind
(Part four of my series on dating. Part three: why keeping busy will improve your chances) Continuing my series on dating with a slight detour here into the seamy world of INTERNET DATING. My experience with Internet dating ranges from one awkward Craigslist date, a brief stint on the hipster-targeted consummating.com (now defunct; don’t go [...]
she says that I’m a mess, but it’s all right
(Part three of my series on dating. Part two: on why you have to be yourself) Last week’s post was about why you need to have good self-esteem if you want romantic success. If you don’t love yourself, nobody else will. However, since I delivered it as an anecdote about a guy asking for dating [...]
beginning with a look and then a smile
(Part two of my series on dating. Part one: my dating advice to teenagers) Years ago, I witnessed an Internet argument (on Livejournal, natch) between several benevolent females and one frustrated guy. The frustrated guy had voiced some of the common complaints about women: it’s easier for them because they get to be choosers; they [...]
it’s not that it’s my fault, it’s just my style
Maybe if I beam this post into space, it’ll accelerate around the curve of the universe and travel back in time, returning to earth so my 16-year-old self can read it. Then again, if I knew this at age 16, I’d be in a different place today, and wouldn’t feel the need to send this [...]
show me what you got
Sometimes I wish I could go back in time about ten years and give my teenage self dating advice. BC was the first co-ed school I had gone to since fifth grade. I don’t regret going to an all-boys school for sixth through twelfth. It was a good school, for one, and the casual disrespect [...]
