"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Should mothers get involved in relationships...

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Um...I would certainly hope so. I mean, there IS life after childbirth, afterall. In light of how many marriages end in divorce it's perfectly normal for both mothers AND fathers to enter into relationships.

Should mothers get involved in relationships..

The question is my friend's brother is dating this girl who the family absolutely loves....The problem is he has been starting to act stupid and not return calls, having girls come over to the crib...all that type of stuff.....The girl has been so messed up over this that she has been asking my friend and the mother for advice on what to do.....Do you think that it is ok for a mother to give advice to her son's girlfriend......Is that acceptable or should the mother stay out of it.....and should my friend stay out of it...or should they give advice, and if yea...what type of advice....

Oh...you should have clarified that question better, lol.

No, the mother shouldn't interfere. Even if the son is being a bonehead, she still shouldn't get in the middle of things.

It's not her relationship. It's none of her business. Even if she is the mother. This is between the boyfriend and the girlfriend.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I agree. I tell my mother to mind her own ****ing business when it comes to my social life(without the f-word in there)

She said thats offensive and i told her tough.

i think that if the mother was a mother of a teenager, then maybe there would be times where she would have to put in her two cents and stuff like that concerning rules on dating .
