Take a walk on the beach. The very idea of a romantic walk on the beach, the moon riding high in the sky while the surf pounds in, will give almost any woman a shiver of delight. Better yet, it won’t cost you a single penny!

Second Date Idea

Find the highest point in your city, and watch the stars. If you own a telescope, you could even bring that along. You and your date could watch for falling stars streaking the night skies or just enjoy each other’s company, while the stars glitter in the sky above. It will also give you a great opportunity to talk.

Third Date Idea

Go for a hike. If you live near a trail system, you’re set up for this great date idea.

Along the way, you’ll see some fantastic sights, be able to enjoy the great outdoors and have a wonderful chance to talk to each other. What more could you possibly want for just the cost of food you already have?

Fourth Date Idea

This may sound cheesy, but I would bet your date would find it hilarious and entertaining. Set up your own puppet show or skit. You can use things you already own, such as old fabric, socks or scraps of wood. Be creative, take the time to jot down some ideas, and away you go. You could even spruce it up some, by taking your show on the road. Set up a romantic campfire in your backyard and dazzle her with your creative genius!

Fifth Date Idea

Read some romantic poetry by candlelight. Create a circle with the candles, and have her sit in the center of your circle with you. She’ll soon be snuggling in your lap, and aplauding your sensitivity, and it won’t cost you a single penny.

Now that you’re armed with five great date ideas that won’t cost a penny, what are you waiting for? Go get her, Tiger!

The Top 5 Dating Tips for Men

January 9, 2012 Rachel Dating Advice for Men No comments

First impressions are very important, on that we can all likely agree. That’s why relationship specialist and Internet author Wendell K. Cribbs has put together his top five dating tips for men. Guys, if you want to make an excellent first impression, make sure you pay close attention to this list.

1. Make certain that you arrive on time. Most women feel that punctuality is an important trait in a man, and being late will instantly let your date know that you really don’t care enough about her to go out of your way to be there to meet her on time. I can’t stress this point enough, women consider your punctuality an indicator of how much you care about them. This advice is foremost among all dating tips for men.

2. Be ready for a conversation. The second most important among my dating tips for men is to make sure that you’re ready to talk. That means doing a little homework before the date. Spend a little time reading up on current events. If you know some of the things your date is interested in, research those topics on the Internet. On your way to meet her, practice discussing a few of the topics you’ve researched. Remember that she wants you to be interested in her, and being prepared to discuss things that interest her is an excellent way to show it.

3. Let your date make decisions about your time together. One of my important dating tips for men is to remind them that a woman likes to have input on her activities. While there are some women who desire a “take charge” guy who’ll make a lot of decisions in a relationship, until you’ve spent time with her you won’t know if that’s who she is. Instead, early on, allow her to have lots of input into your dating plans. It will make her feel important and appreciated, and if you later find that she’d rather have you decide, you can work that out.

4. During the date, make sure you ask questions and listen carefully to her responses. Most people enjoy talking about themselves. Ask a lot of questions about her and the things that interest her, and that will give her a lot of opportunities to tell you about herself. Asking questions and quietly listening to and thoughtfully responding to her will show her that you’re really interested, and is one of my top dating tips for men.

5. Beware the goodnight kiss. At the end of a date, many men become paralyzed and aren’t sure how to proceed. Some women prefer not to kiss on a first date, others are disappointed if you don’t at least make an attempt. In order to decide how to handle the goodnight kiss, pay close attention to her body language during your date. If she keeps her distance, then avoid the kiss and go for a friendly hug instead. If she doesn’t seem to mind getting closer during your date, then go ahead and move in for the kiss.

Remember, a woman wants to know that a man is interested in her. Follow these top five dating tips for men from relationship specialist Wendell K. Cribbs and you’ll let her know without saying a word.

5 HOT Dating Tips from George Clooney

June 25, 2011 Rachel Dating Advice for Men No comments

Born in Lexington, Kentucky in 1961, George Clooney epitomizes the suaveness and class of men born and raised in the South.  He has an old-fashioned respect for women which is refreshing.  One top trait that he says makes a man stylish is a sense of humor.  As he put it, “For me, a sense of humor is number one.  It’s certainly what’s most attractive.  It’s not the first thing you notice at 21, but it’s the first thing you notice now.”

He was named as People Magazine’s “sexiest man alive” in 1997 and 2006 not only because of his good looks, but because of his charisma, behavior, style, and class, among other positive traits that any man would do well to copy.

Here are five of his tips for dating success:

#5:  Have respect for the women you date – don’t “kiss and tell”

Clooney maintains that if he didn’t keep his private life personal, it wouldn’t be “personal.”  This is also his belief when it comes to the women he dates.  It’s not anyone else’s business.  He says there are more important things in life for people to worry about than who he went out to dinner with last night.  This attitude is very appreciated by the women in his life.

So, take a page out of Clooney’s book and don’t discuss your dates with other people, especially other women!  If you get a bad rep for talking about your sexual exploits with the other people in your crowd, you soon won’t find any woman who will want to be with you.  And what woman in her right mind wants to hear you talk about your past exploits?  She will be thinking that if she becomes your next “exploit” you’ll be discussing her at your next night at the bar.

#4:  Don’t be afraid to act your age

There’s nothing you can do about your age and, more often than not, it’s easy for someone to find out exactly how old you are.  Actually, a little maturity is a good thing because women are attracted to suave, “older” men.  For one thing, they have more class and poise than a younger man, and they’ve learned how to treat a woman.  Also, they’re not so self-conscious and have left that “jerk” phase behind them.

So, remember, be comfortable with whatever age you are.  Women will flock to a man who is comfortable in his own skin.

#3:  Be careful of who you hang out with

What kind of men do you include in your close circle of friends?  Remember the old saying, “birds of a feather flock together?”  What kind of impression will a woman get about you from the people she sees you hanging out with?

George Clooney says that you need to be aware of the type of people in your social circle, especially when you all go out together and hope to meet some nice women.

Don’t let your friends ruin your chances or embarrass you by their behavior.

#2:  Have integrity

Women look for a man who has integrity, not only in his personal actions, but in the causes and beliefs he considers important to his life.  Don’t be wishy-washy about what you believe in.  Be straightforward.  Make yourself someone a woman would be proud to introduce to her family and friends. Be someone who is consistent in their beliefs and someone a woman can trust.

#1:  Be charming

Being charming can take many forms.  Giving the woman you’re with your full attention when you are talking, being polite – opening doors, saying thank you and please – being the epitome of a gentleman.  Having a confident attitude about yourself.  Being gracious.  If you will just start to incorporate a more “charming” demeanor into your actions, you will have the women more than happy to be in your company.

These are just a few pointers from one of the most self-confident and charming men in the world today.  Incorporate these tips into your life and you will increase your chances of success with the women of your choice.
