April 16, 2014: #20 - Always Say Yes to the Party
Everyone wants to tell you their rules for dating - when to call, when to text, how to leave, when to get naked - but most of those rules are crap. Let’s do it better.
My guest Holly Wood would love to answer more of your questions over Twitter.

Everyone wants to tell you their rules for dating - when to call, when to text, how to leave, when to get naked - but most of those rules are total crap. Let’s do it better. |
After this show, here's what we came up with: * Always say yes to the party. * Texting is important * Contact within 24 hours after a good first date * Calling is cool even if it's not often expected * Schedule a week between the first and second date * Take your time getting to know someone before you binge date * Don’t rush to make your potential beau meet your friends (or to meet his) * Don’t obsess over the existence of a spark, just enjoy it when it happens, even if it feels like a chest cold * The quality of the first date won’t always be determined by the location * Dinner date for first dates - no way * Make sure you can see the exit * Don't overtext * E-mail is sexy * Skype pre-dates are acceptable, but give a good reason why * Leave your phone in your purse or pocket * When you realize it’s wrong, be human and empathetic -- don't be a dick * Own the awkwardness. (It's always awkward.) * Follow Dan Savage's campsite rule -a first date should never be damaging to someone's self-esteem * White lies are an OK exit strategy * If you feel it won't work out--play up the reason why during the date--eg. if he hates vegetarians, don't pretend to eat meat. |

Well, that was being a bit of a jerk, and was a little too limited, so better: 'If you want sex to be a regular part of a relationship, stay sexually satisfied while you're looking.' If you're too horny, you will be attracted to people that might not really make it for you later on when you're (as you likely want) having relatively frequent sex. Similarly, don't overdo any drug that makes other people seem more attractive to you or you more horny.
That is to say, keeping satisfied makes sexual attraction a better guide.
The most successful relationships I know started between people interested in the same things, which interest caused the two to be around each other often, and whose possible attendant difficulty (e.g., trying not to fail at a very tough school) gave you sympathy with each other even before the relationship.

I was showing off my bath foam formula for kids in the kiddie pool. (Our hosts had encouraged me to try to commercialize on it.) Afterward a young lady from across the street got in with me. I told her, "Other friends have told me bubble bath is sensual. Would you like to have sexual intercourse with me?" She responded very affirmatively! But then our host explained to me that she had the mentality of a child in terms of maturity.

Anyway, heeding my host's advice, I wound up masturbating in the foamy pool, with a couple of friends there for moral support.

Try to imagine that there is an actual person much like you inside that other body.

My husband left me for another woman. The most painful thing is that I was pregnant with our second baby. I wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back , I had no choice than to try it. I messaged the spell caster called Dr.Excellent, and he assured me there was no problem and that everything will be okay before 11 hours. He cast the spell and surprisingly 11 hours later my husband called me. I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that had happened He wanted me to return to him. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again.thanks to Dr.Excellent . if you are here and your Lover is turning you down, or your husband moved to another woman, do not cry anymore, contact Dr.Excellent for help now..

One must use caution when trading or investing in cryptocurrencies due to the inherent danger. I didn’t do enough research on cryptocurrencies since I was stupid enough to think I could profit greatly from them. I invested $843,000 in a cryptocurrency that collapsed, losing me both USDT and BTC. Fortunately, I was able to get in contact with OPTIMISTIC HACKER GAUIS, a reliable cryptocurrency recovery organization. I was successful in getting my entire investment back from the scam. I appreciate OPTIMISTIC HACKER GAUIS’s assistance, and everyone reading this who wants to get their cryptocurrency money back should consider doing so. OPTIMISTIC HACKER GAUIS IS THE MOST ACCURATE TEAM FOR LOST CRYPTO RECOVERY.
