At least one time in your life (if you have not experienced it already) you are going to have a rotten date. The question is how do you deal with it after the date is over?
In the movie Groundhog Day, Bill Murray finds himself reliving the same day over and over again until he basically gets things right, including his dating relationship. Living the same date over and over again can either be a blessing or a curse. In real life however you do not get a second chance to make a first impression. This means you are going to have at least one rotten date in your life (if you have not experienced it already) and there is no going back to correct it.
It can be a lot of things that contribute to a bad date which are not in your control. Rotten weather, a restaurant with less than stellar service or some other external circumstance that neither of you could have predicted. Hopefully you and your date will have a sense of humor about such misfortunes and allow it to draw the two of you closer together.
And then there is the obvious. For whatever reason, it is not working between you and your date. It could be a personality clash, lack of conversation to the point of uncomfortable silence or a number of other things. You may not want to write the other person off fully but for now this date is done.
So how can you deal with a rotten date after all is said and done
1. You Are Forgiven
There is a tendency for people to beat themselves up terribly when a date goes bad. They keep asking themselves the same question; what do I do wrong? It is okay to critique yourself to see if there was something you could have said or done differently to make the date go smoother, but if you are using that question to punish yourself then stop right there. Nobody is perfect and beating yourself up from the time your bad date ended to the time of your next date is a good form of self sabotage.
Keep in mind it takes two to tango so unless you were blatantly rude and obnoxious, it is okay to give some of that blame to the other person. You do not have to call them up and start critiquing them either. Just accept the fact that what is done is done and move on.
2. The Friendly Shoulder
It is not good to keep things bottled up inside of you. The best thing to do sometimes after a bad date is to talk it over with a good friend or a close relative. They may be able to offer objective criticism and advice; or they may understand that the only thing you need right now is someone who is willing to listen. If they are willing to give you the friendly shoulder to vent, cry or laugh on then by all means take it.
3. Get Going
You can avoid a lot of self pity by forcing yourself to get involved with other activities. Exercise, go out with friends to a movie or a restaurant (if your bad date happened in a certain restaurant, try to go back to that place with your friends to show there is no lingering stigma) or plan a special occasion for yourself. Getting active is a great way to truly put the bad date experience behind you.
Things happen in life and a rotten date is one of them. The key is to not beat yourself up over it. Just know that it is okay to forgive you and the other person, find a friendly shoulder and by all means get going with activity. This way you can go a long way to guaranteeing your next date will be a good one.

Should Men Always Bear The Bill Burden On Dates?
One of the touchiest dating issues today has to do with money. Who pays - the man or the woman, and when? Read on to find out...
Once you're into a relationship, you would have worked out what is best for you as a couple, but in the meantime, it's tough to know what's expected of you. Typically, men today are put into a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation. Some women are insulted if men always insist on paying. On the other hand, if men don't offer to pay instantly, some women will think that they're just being cheap or ungentlemanly.
There are a couple of general indicators determining which of these three options is taking place. Once you've learned them, you'll be prepared to handle any tricky dating scenario. Take a look and sort out your confusion.
WHEN SHOULD THE MAN PAY
On first dates: First impressions are important. On first dates, it will be the best bet if the man makes the first move when the bill comes. This goes not just for the very first date, but throughout the early stages of the relationship. Paying for things is not just the gentlemanly thing to do, it also indicates that you are responsible, steady and well-established. The girl will be impressed.
If you asked her out: A good general rule when it comes to these situations is to ask yourself, "Who asked who out?" If it was the guy who instigated the date, then he will be expected to pay. In fact, it's good for the man to be prepared to pay, regardless of whether the girl asked him out or not because girls always like it if the guy foots the bill.
On special occasions: For special events, such as an anniversary, birthday, holiday dinners, the man should offer to pay. It makes them appear gracious and classy. Guys should remember not to make a big show of their generosity by letting the girl know how much a meal cost.
WHEN SHOULD THE WOMAN PAY
If she asked you out: Once again, the guy should be ready to pay even if she asked him out. However, in this situation, it's more likely that she will cover both of you, and why not? The date was her idea. Unfortunately, some men still have a problem with letting women pay, but there is no reason to feel insecure if this happens occasionally.
On your birthday: Obviously, this is the one occasion when she should cover her date and he should accept gifts or treats on his special day. She should be more than happy to pay.
If she's adamant about it: If, for whatever reason, she absolutely insists on paying, the simple solution is to just let her. Weigh the cost of angering her versus the slight embarrassment of her whipping out her plastic for both of you in a fancy restaurant.
GO DUTCH
If you're a steady couple: Once you've reached the stage where you're splitting all your bills, you've likely fallen into the steady couple category. At this stage, there is no longer any reason why only the guy should pay for everything, especially if both of you have similar incomes.
On joint purchases: If you're living together or going on a vacation, split all the bills for items or services that you'll both be using. If you're travelling a long distance in her car, pay half the gas money. The opposite situation, if she doesn't immediately offer, there is nothing wrong with suggesting that she should contribute. You can't go wrong if you remember to let her take the lead, and respond accordingly, or be prepared to pay the whole bill.
So enjoy yourselves without worrying about expenses.

Eliminate Your Dating Insecurities Tips
Why it is so important to eliminate your dating insecurities in order to succeed.
Eliminating the insecurities that many people have is to understand the minds of women.
Men find that women are not actually that different and this helps them to become more confident. However this is only after reading so much of the "mysteries" of women etc which is awfully confusing. Well I hope to dispel such a theory and instill a hope and confidence into the minds of men. You see we grow up with genders much apart and see each other as different and there is a stigmatism attached to the genders.
One of the biggest troubles that men have with women is that they are actually unable to communicate properly and instead come across as the silent type or insecure. However this is not actually how they are at all and this communication barrier that exists between the genders is the one barrier that if you cross women will be at your finger tips. You will have noticed that the guys who are truly good at dating are defiantly able to communicate with women very well. They have jumped the barrier ling ago.
Are you still on the other side?
Viewing women in a different way is the biggest step to overcoming this barrier that has been holding you back. If you could only dispel this feeling whenever you are near a beautiful women you could really see the potential that is inside you. This feeling I believe comes from a young age, you may not have been subjected or forced to talk to girls that much and hence now feel like they are different in some way? There may be other uncovered reasons why and you may have to do some searching and really find out where the insecurities lie.
One things for sure though. There is a sure fire method of eliminating this fear an jumping over that barrier that is still holding you back. Holding you back in probably many other areas of your life too?
This method works on every other fear to and you may have heard of it. Just one word...
EXPOSURE. It is hard to fathom that this is all you need but managed correctly this should be all you need to overcome any fear. Try and go up to a girl you feel comfortable around even your sister if you have to and just talk to them. Ask them every question about women you have (well not every question) ,this should begin to get your confidence up and you should soon be able to talk to really beautiful women confidently. Don’t rush the process of exposure and gradually work up in incremental steps of what you feel comfortable with.
And remember that even the best get nervous at times, It is natural to get a little nervous so don’t beat yourself up about it.
Good luck with all your dating endeavors from the PullingLadies Dating team.

Tips on Finding a Date
Finding a date can often be difficult. It certainly is not easy to find someone that shares the same interests as you and who you find attractive. Yet, finding a date is the critical first step to building a meaningful and lasting relationship. Even if you are not ready to settle down yet, it is important to find a date in order to simply have a companion for social occasions.
When looking for a date, it is important to first know where you should look. While it is entirely possible that might find someone to date just out of the blue, there are some places in which you are more likely to find a date. You should take into consideration your current circumstances and why you are interested in dating when identifying a place to look for a date. For example, if you only need to find a date in order to have a companion for a social event then you might be able to find a casual friend or a co-worker that would agree to be your date for the event. If you are interested in a more serious relationship, you will usually need to look beyond casual friends. The best places to look for possible dates are those locations that match your interests.
In the last few years dating websites and online dating services have become extremely popular among people looking for dates. These sites usually ask you to complete a personality profile regarding your interests, hobbies and preferences so that you can be matched with an individual who shares similar interests. There are even customized websites that can help you to find a date that will meet specialized interests or needs, such as sites that cater to senior citizens and interracial preferences.
When completing an online dating personality profile, it is best to be honest in order to receive the best results. If you are less than honest about your interests and hobbies or other details of your life then your matches will not likely mesh well with your own personality.
Another method for finding a date is actually one that is quite time honored. You might think about letting friends and family know that you are interested in meeting someone and ask them to set you up on a blind date. While blind dates have received somewhat of a bad reputation over the years, you just never know who you might meet with this method. There have been many satisfying relationships begun through this very technique.
Yet another idea would be to place a personal ad in a newspaper that would invite others with similar interests to contact you. This method is somewhat similar to using a dating site, but you should keep in mind that responses will not be filtered.
One method that is quite popular in many circles is speed dating. This method requires attending specialized events in which others who are interested in getting a date attend. Usually, you have a few moments to meet with each of the other people there and decide whether you might be interested in seeing more of that person. This method works well for some people because everyone knows that everyone who is in attendance at the event is interested in dating and it gives you the opportunity to meet a larger number of people within a relatively short period of time.
Of course, there are also other methods that have been used often throughout time, such as spending time at places where you might be likely to meet others. Some of the most popular places include clubs and bars, but there are also other options such as the gym, taking special classes in your area of interest, the supermarket, the home improvement store, etc.
Performing volunteer work can also place you in a situation where you will meet people with similar interests as well, if you enjoy helping others. The value of socializing in a variety of different areas should not be underestimated. Even taking a vacation can provide you with the opportunity to meet others. There are cruises that are specifically designed for singles who are interested in meeting other singles. There are really no limits regarding how creative you can be when you want to find a date. The main key is to just be yourself and explore the many opportunities that are available out there.
Regardless of which method you choose, it is important to be clear regarding your intentions when you are looking for a date. Are you just looking for a social companion or are you looking for a committed relationship that could develop into marriage? It is also important to be certain that you are forthright with interested individuals regarding your attitudes toward dating and long term relationships.

Effective Dating Tips for Women
There are many effective dating tips for women today. In today’s world of courtship, it is important to know and understand the field that you are playing in. It is equally important to know exactly how to make your play so that you can optimize your performance in this area of your life. By following these simple dating tips for women, you can make this experience a fulfilling and positive one. Once you engage in fulfilling and positive dating experiences, you will become more productive in this area. The following tips will help you on your way to discovering that relationship that you are seeking through dating.
Be Yourself
The first and most important dating tip for women in my personal opinion is ensuring that you are true to yourself, and that you simply be yourself when dating. When you begin to date, you should just focus on who you truly are and not who you think your date wants you to be. If you "role play" that of a person other than you are, it is quite likely that it will eventually catch up to you, and result in difficulties in any relationships that you want to pursue with the person you are going out with.
Don't Keep Your Date Waiting
Being on time is of the utmost importance. You should always be considerate of the meeting times, telephone calls, and other situations and events that you have committed to. If you fail to uphold the promises that you make, and you invade upon the rights of time on your date, this will make a long lasting impression that can be detrimental to the relationship that you share for a long time.
Have a Positive Attitude
The next dating tip for women that I have is that you should remain positive at all times. You should avoid complaining too much, seeing the negative in things, and allowing all this negativity to show. While it is important that you are yourself, and should remain true to that, being negative is never a way to go when it comes to socialization.
What Not to Talk About
Conversation is an essential component when it comes to dating tips for women. Let’s face it; most of us really enjoy talking. However, when you are in the process of dating someone, it is important to avoid certain types of discussions. These topics may include health, previous relationships, money, and similar areas. It may also be in the area of expressing future expectations of the relationship, such as getting married.
Accept Compliments
While dating, you may find that the individual you have chosen to socialize with issues compliments to you. It is important that you resist the urge to "talk down" the compliment, or refuse to accept it. If you are issued a compliment, avoid all the emotional negative self talk and just accept it. You should thank your date by issuing you a compliment. If you accept compliments, it shows that you have an air of self confidence. You will come to find that many men really enjoy dating someone who is self-confident.
Disagreeing is OK
You will find that there will likely come a time when you must share your opinions on certain subjects. It is important to ensure that you always express yourself honestly, and allow the other person to know where you stand on various subjects. Do not feel that you will turn on a male that you are dating simply because of the fact that you agree with him. Men want to date women who are strong and completely confident in whom they are as individuals. If nothing else, being honest about how you feel on certain topics may actually push him to be more attracted to you!
Ask Questions
When it comes to dating tips for women, it is important that you understand the basic element of communication. That is that most people enjoy talking about themselves and what has and is occurring in their life. If you are looking to make a sound impression, and want to allow that person to get closer to you, ask questions that allow them to take about themselves.
Conclusion
There are many different online dating tips for women. The ones here are the basis for all other dating tips. If you want to make a long-lasting impression, and potentially court the individual that you are with in hopes of developing a serious relationship, it is important to ensure that you follow the techniques listed here. It is one of the best guides when it comes to dating tips for women.

However, when you are in the process of dating someone, it is important to avoid certain types of discussions. These topics may include health, previous relationships, money, and similar areas. It may also be in the area of expressing future expectations of the relationship, such as getting married.
Accept Compliments
While dating, you may find that the individual you have chosen to socialize with issues compliments to you. It is important that you resist the urge to "talk down" the compliment, or refuse to accept it. If you are issued a compliment, avoid all the emotional negative self talk and just accept it. You should thank your date by issuing you a compliment. If you accept compliments, it shows that you have an air of self confidence. You will come to find that many men really enjoy dating someone who is self-confident.
Disagreeing is OK
You will find that there will likely come a time when you must share your opinions on certain subjects. It is important to ensure that you always express yourself honestly, and allow the other person to know where you stand on various subjects. Do not feel that you will turn on a male that you are dating simply because of the fact that you agree with him. Men want to date women who are strong and completely confident in whom they are as individuals. If nothing else, being honest about how you feel on certain topics may actually push him to be more attracted to you!

Super Dates with Little Money
You imagine how nice it can be to go to a lovely spot, well, you need to know that women are not so impressed by location as they are by the atmosphere you create. So here are some hints, simple and financially acceptable.
Invitation to have a cup of coffee
It's easy to do. You know, people in the movies invite themselves to have a cup of coffee, so you can do it too. Why wouldn't your date be a success because in the movies such dates are always successful? Atmosphere is crucial. Select a nice place and make her feel special.
A bike ride
Let's get serious; do you think that she has experienced such a date? You can be original, go to a park. You can even use roller skates instead of bikes. Think that you can enjoy the fresh air and feel great.
A visit to the museum
If you want to impress her, this is your chance. Only an intellectual would select such a place. Of course you must know lots of things about the exhibits. It is your moment of glory to show her how well informed you are.
At a picnic
You prepare a basket with sandwiches, fruit, a champagne bottle, a blanket and you drive to a quiet place - peace and quiet and only the two of you. If you think she is positive about it you can also try strawberries and cream.
At a party
If one of your fiends is having a party, invite her to join you. You will spend quality time together dancing and talking…for free. It is a chance to show her you are a good dancer and a communicative person.
Dinner at home
Invite her to your place and prepare dinner. Show that men are the greatest cooks. Prepare good food, offer dessert, and a cocktail on the house.
Good luck to you!
