Celebrity or not... being single SUCKS. Dating, on the other hand… well, dating can suck too. BUT it doesn’t have to! There are numerous simple steps and guidelines you can follow that can help make your dating life so much easier, not to mention a whole lot more fun!
THE OVERVIEW:
First of all, the first date is often considered an audition… if you’ve got a cute, petite figure… show it off by putting on a revealing mini (let’s see those stems!). If you’re vertically challenged, run out and get a hot pair of platforms! Remember, the girl who gets the part is generally the most sexually appealing - so, BREAK OUT THE PUSH UP BRA – L.A. is not the only place that’s all about the BOOBS!
IT’S NOT JUST THE CLOTHES! Men love to put their hands through long, silky hair – make sure your ends are perfectly straight and flat-ironed. If you’re a fun chick, the best offense is a defense! Surprise attack them with a flawless, angelic face –that means throw away your ‘goth’ make-up! Stick with a little blush, eyeliner, mascara, lip gloss and a hint of bronze… it goes a long way. Girl Next Door beauty can totally create the “WOW” factor! Also, SMELL GOOD, not like Grandma! Citrus scents like lemon or grapefruit will make him want to taste you… Did anyone say “kiss me”?
AVOID MISTAKES:
We all know the ex was a jerk, but does your date really need to know? The fact that you’ve been married once is a commodity in a city like L.A. - use it to your advantage! When “ex” talk comes up, simply say to your date (with your sweetest voice), “Lets not talk about him, he’s in the past, I’d much rather talk about you!” Then never mention it again. IF the guy persists, then you know he’s NOT your guy… and MOVE ON . Only gossip queens, and I do mean “queens”, like to talk about past relationships.
ESCAPE PLANS:
If you’re on a physical date and things aren’t going the way you want – you’re gasping for air, you want to scratch your skin off, you can’t stand looking at his face for a second more – here’s what you do: Simply tell your date, “I really don’t feel you and I are a match (ouch!). And because you’re such a great guy, I don’t want to waste any more of your time. I think I’m going go, but I wish you best of luck in your love search!” Don’t forget to say “thank-you” for drinks and/or dinner, and politely leave. Oh, and remember, it’s always a good idea to have an emergency K of at least $100 in your purse to escape if needed! Especially in cases where you didn’t drive… and you need money for a cab!
A little easier is the “phone date”. If the two of you are talking, but don’t seem to connect - say the same thing (“I really don’t feel you and I are a match… blah blah blah”), but be sure to add “You sure do sound like a great guy, if I know of anyone for you, I’ll send them your way! I hope you’ll do the same for me!” Remember, ALWAYS get the referral! A referral date can end up being your husband!
LOVE… AT FIRST SIGHT?: Love at first sight is indefinable. For a man - it’s usually all about the girl that has that exact look of the woman in his fantasies… he simply prays that everything else lines up. For a woman, it’s a little more complex… - he “did, looked and said all the right things, tied up in one neat package”. Remember you are a woman and more auditory than the male… with his voice alone, he can make you tingle all over. So, don’t throw a good man away just because he doesn’t look the part… the man with the sexiest voice usually gets the girl! DATING DISCOURAGED?: Take a dating diet! Breaks are great. They give the body, mind and spirit time to realign. Make a deal with yourself that you’ll go 60 days without dating anyone. I promise that great men will show up within that time (just like junk food shows up when you’re on a diet), and you may get your best offer yet – they’ll just have to wait! Also – EXERCISE… it kicks the endorphins in, making you feel happy – remember, men are drawn to women that are happy and relaxed… hit the gym! CELEBRITY DATING TIPS: It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out why most celebrity couples don’t work out – can you say “DATING A.D.D.”? BUT, what do YOU do if you’re dating a celebrity? Well, because celebrities get so much attention, they tend to look for a mate that can balance the “interest” of celebrity with the “mystery” of themselves. Since their schedules are erratic and crazy, you’re going to need a lot of patience to date them. Let them lead, but fill up your week with other dates… that way you don’t focus on “Mr. Hollywood”. When he calls or texts you and you’re not available because you’re on a date, his testosterone should kick him into hunter mode – and he’ll pursue you… provided you’ve got the goods. Also, remember to mirror him - only compliment him when he compliments you - this usually makes him feel he’s found a kindred spirit. How do you snare someone famous? Beauty and charm is not going to hold his attention as much as intrigue. For every four questions he asks you, ask only one back. Smile, laugh at his jokes… relax. He’ll expect you to delve into his personal life… don’t you dare - unless he volunteers. Be available, but not too available. If he asks you out for the next day, give him two days later. Sound interested… but make sure he knows that your schedule is booking up. If he keeps asking you out, but refuses to give you a Saturday night, punish him with a Monday night (that’s code for laundry night). If you date him for three weeks straight and he doesn’t take you to an event you can be seen at (or on the red carpet)… DUMP HIM! Count to 5 and he will beg for you back. These men generally do not get dumped without a duel.
