- I'm 29 and have been around the dating block a bit.
-
- Biggest, and I mean the, BIGGEST mistakes I've made with
- women has been being over anxious. Trust me when I say that
- they can sense it, will feel threatened by it, and will
- react to it. Do not press her. Make open, flexible suggestions,
- "sometime next week", "when is good for you?" etc etc. Let
- her come to you. This is especially true if she's under alot
- of accademic pressure from school and social pressure from
- her sororiety.
- It can be tough, you want answers NOW, you want to see
- her NOW or at least SOON. Be cool, Be cool. Also have,
- at the very least in your mind, backup plans. So that
- if she says, "I can't tonight"(especially at the last minute)
- be able to say, "No problem, I'll just go hang with my friends,
- study at the library, or something, we'll reconnect next week".
- Also trust me when I say that if you press a woman she
- will say "Yes", even if she knows she should say "No". (Well
- I've met alot of guys who will do that to, to be fair).
- She'll do it simply to please you, but you will only
- increase the stress on her, and make her resentful
- when she finally has to say "No, I can't make it."
- If anything, try to be a factor that REDUCES the
- stress in her life, not one that INCREASES it.
-
-
- Bottom line:
-
- PATIENCE...PATIENCE...PATIENCE...
-
- and if you have trouble with that...
-
- PATIENCE...PATIENCE...PATIENCE...
