If You Want It, You’ll Fight For It
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating Topics on January 27, 2010

During a recent iChat conversation on the Thread.com blog, the ultimate dating truism was mentioned; if you like someone, you’ll fight for them. Often this dating logic places the burden of truth on the shoulders of men. If we like a girl, we would make attempts to call her. We would reach out to her every moment we had, we walk the mile for her every time. If a guy really liked a woman, he would do his best to reach out to her.
While the advice is accurate it’s also adds unrealistic expectations, and allows women to live in a fantasy land. It doesn’t recognize the actual expectations of living in the real world. It also excuses them of any responsibility. I believe this truism goes both ways. If a woman really liked a guy, she has the same responsibilities to fight for his attention.

Make a Man Know You Want Him
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating Topics on December 1, 2009
Over the last month, my e-mail has become inundated with dating advice about guys. This isn’t a bad thing, I encourage it! Feel free to send more! There is a disturbing tend I’m seeing, this is a woman’s unwillingness to let a guy know that she wants him. I’m sure many women think they are showing a guy that she likes him by being flirty or by responding to calls or texts, but the signals you’re sending aren’t clear. If you like a guy you have to let him know that you want him or he’ll find someone who he’s sure wants him.

While it may be true that nice guys don’t get as much attention as the bad-boy type, it’s because the nice guys hinder their own chances. I’m talking from experience here. During a recent trip, I’ve discovered a few ways nice guys can get the attention of A List women at bars and clubs while maintaining the status as a nice guy. Read the rest of this entry »
Clothes Make The Impression
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating Topics on September 29, 2009

The one lesson I’ve learned when trying to attract someone seems like a bit of common sense our mother’s tell us when we’re young; clothing makes an important impression. In todays single world, that important lesson seems to get thrown out of the window. Last week I hinted at this topic but wanted to spend a bit more time defining how men view women and some lessons I’ve learned about dressing as a guy. Let’s begin by recognizing one universal truth, not all clothing is appropriate for all events. When on the hunt in Bars and Clubs in an attempt to attract some attention, shouldn’t be the clothing worn should on a first date (there are exceptions to this rule). Rarely, wearing cardigans at a bar will attract someone the same way flaunting your cleavage on the first date will secure a second date. Read the rest of this entry »
