Going the distance!

So do you have what it takes to win at the dating game? Do you know the rules, or better yet, does she know the rules and better than you do? Girls are experts at relationships early on and most are aware of the 'rules'.

There are 10 year old girls (if you've ever overheard talking about boys) that know alot more about relationships/interaction, and attraction than guys in their 20s or beyond!

So what are THEIR rules? Alot of them are the SAME, which include some of the following:

- don't be too available (from dating guide)
- tease, be ****y and funny (from Cosmo)
- do return first phone call (from dating guide)
- do not make the first move (from Cosmo)
- make him jealous (from Cosmo)
- be a challenge and mysterious (from dating guide)
- dress sexy (from Cosmo)
- If he's available Tuesday, you're available Thursday (general rules)

(i love the one below LOL!)

- On all nonbusiness e-mails, responding once for every four of his e-mails is a good rule of thumb (from The Rules)

Can you see the PROBLEM here? If both rule books are virtually the same (and both girl and guy are playing), can cause some problems as one person may think the other is rejecting them, or not interested.

The only winning move is not to play. Show your interest and look for oppurtunities for spending time together and getting to know each other. Being busy is good, and establishing a friendship is also good because the best relationships are often built on good friendships.

If a woman can't be true to herself, don't even date her.

As far as I'm concerned, it's her job to keep my interest up and to make me want to play the game with her.

If she couldn't make approaching and seducing enjoyable, then I wouldn't give her a second thought.

After all, if I have to compete with her vibrator, then she has to compete with my left hand

This is what you call a zero-sum game: if both parties play effectively, no one can win.
