Aries (March 21st to April 19th) An Aries love a straight shooter, and an independent person. If you have a life outside of your friendship or relationship with an Aries, they will respect you deeply. Taurus (April 20th to May 21st) The most impressive thing for a Taurus is someone who is simply just honest and real. They hate fake people.

Aries (March 21st to April 19th) Aries are babies, to put it bluntly. They will explode and never think about how their words and actions affect the people around them. They will never sugar coat their feelings, and will often verbally hurt people they care about in order to protect their pride. If an Aries is angry with you, simply staying quiet and not reacting to their reactive state is the best possible way to cool them down. They will calm down quickly, and they will often feel extremely guilty for getting out of hand. Taurus (April 20th to May 21st) A Taurus will never blow up on you right away. When mad, they will often give you subtle, passive aggressive hints. They will become silent and cold, keeping everything in until it boils over and causes them to explode with emotions. Physical creatures, they often use their body a lot, pacing and waving their hands, exhausting themselves in an angry fit. However, it is very hard to upset a Taurus, as they tend to be rational and just ...

Aries (March 21st to April 19th) An Aries will try to touch you a lot if they like you, so expect a lot of hugs. As a naturally competitive person, you will be challenged by an Aries. If they like you they will want you to prove yourself by playing one of their games, so accept the challenge and stand your ground. If an Aries gets upset or jealous when they see you flirting with someone else, you can be sure that they are interested in you. An Aries will often think about you, and will therefore ask you questions about your day; they will want to know what is going on in your general life. This is their way of keeping up with you, and showing an interest in you. However, the great thing about an Aries is that they will often just tell you that they are fond of you — they tend to be quite straightforward. Taurus (April 20th to May 21st) When a Taurus likes you, they will ask you for your thoughts on a lot of things, and they will engage you in stimulating conversation. They are a nurtur...

You have no f#cking idea what you’re doing. Not when it comes to s#x and dating and women, anyway. Don’t beat yourself up about it though, because it’s not your fault. Your culture has failed you and the women you’re trying to meet. We have been working with young single men in our capacities as educators, public figures, and authors for more than thirty years. In that time, the most common question we’ve gotten from guys centers around how to increase their confidence with women. Click to continue

So you’re 23 and you have no idea what comes next. First of all, congratulations. You’re ahead of the game. Do you know how long most people wait to realize that they’re lost? Do you know many people never do? Do you understand how many people go through their entire lives aimlessly floundering; only to realize at the very end of it that none of what they did was what they wanted? It’s a lot more than you’d think. And most of those people thought they had it all figured out at twenty-three. After all, it’s not so hard to be found when you are twenty-three years old. There are infinite hoards of people who will tell you what to do and where to go. There are endless opportunities for you to make money and prosper. All you have to do is let go of what you want for yourself. You just have to subscribe to living someone else’s dream. If you are lost at twenty-three, you are exactly where you need to be right now. I know that it is not where you would like – stuck in the middle of uncertaint...

Strong women don’t fall in love. They tread in love. Strong women entertain love, they flirt with it, they embody it with caution and they escape from it unscathed. Everyone knows that. Only weak women allow love to affect them. Strong women couldn’t care less. Strong women live their lives alone. They may have flings or fuck-buddies or even domestic partnerships but never, ever lovers. Love makes you crippled and small. Love stops you from achieving what you want out of life. Strong women don’t fall in love because love is an emotion. And real women do not feel anything pervasively. Real women switch their sentiments on and off like a light switch. Real women are strong because they have mastered detachment. And detachment is the ultimate end goal. Anyone else tired of hearing these tirades? Because I am. I am tired – and I don’t think I’m alone – of the infinite set of contradictions we set up for each other. The criticism we face when we love, the criticism we face when we don’t. I ...

Why is modern dating such a fake process? Being alone used to be such a terrifying thought for me. When I first moved into my apartment four years ago, I was just five months out of my last long-term relationship and it was a complete shock to my system. I had only ever lived with a boyfriend, or at the very least, had one when I was living on my own. My new reality having no one to come home to, pay me visits and snuggle up in my bed next to me was a hard one to get used to. It took me a while but I've seriously conquered the fear of being alone and I'm better than ever at managing my life without that special someone by my side. Though I'm still hopeful to have love in my life again someday, dating has never been more difficult. This chapter of my single life started innocently. I would meet guys online or in real life and I was giddy with teenage delight every time I got ready to go out on a first date. The hope wasn't just alive in my heart; it burned like a fire th...

1. Wear revealing clothing. When women wear a low cut top that bares their cleavage and a skirt that leaves little to the imagination, it isn’t necessarily a means of getting attention. A man staring at her breasts doesn’t make her feel better about herself, if anything it makes her uncomfortable, but showing off the part of her body that she loves the most makes her feel good. If a girl loves her shoulders, she wears a strapless dress. If she loves her legs, she wears a short skirt, and there’s nothing wrong with that. People express themselves through clothing, and revealing clothes do more than just reveal a woman’s body, they reveal how she feels about her body. Click to continue reading

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. Eleanor Roosevelt Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric. Bertrand Russell A dame that knows the ropes isn’t likely to get tied up. Mae West Click to continue

1. You ascribe intent. Another driver cut you off. Your friend never texted you back. Your co-worker went to lunch without you. Everyone can find a reason to be offended on a steady basis. So what caused you to be offended? You assigned bad intent to these otherwise innocuous actions. You took it as a personal affront, a slap in the face. Happy people do not do this. They don’t take things personally. They don’t ascribe intent to the unintentional actions of others. 2. You’re the star of your own movie. It is little wonder that you believe the world revolves around you. After all, you have been at the very center of every experience you have ever had. You are the star of your own movie. You wrote the script. You know how you want it to unfold. You even know how you want it to end. Unfortunately you forgot to give your script to anyone else. As a result, people are unaware of the role they are supposed to play. Then, when they screw up their lines, or fail to fall in love with you or do...

I know I shouldn’t think about it, but I can’t help but wonder… Did you see your forever with her? Did she make you want to try more? Did she make you want to text her good morning and good night, every single day? Did she make you want to text her just because? Because you couldn’t stop your heart from connecting with hers even for a few hours? Did you want to dress up and take her out for fancy candle-lit dinners, instead of happy hour drinks in the bar? Did you want to grasp her hand with yours, and show her off to the world? Did you want to tell everyone you met along the way, that you had the most incredible girlfriend, and that you felt like the luckiest guy on the planet mostly because of her? Is there a reason why you sometimes hesitate to tell people about me at all? Did you listen to her? I mean, really listen to hear? Did you hang off her every word, drink it all in, and wait, eager for more, because no matter how much she gave you, you were endlessly hungry for more and mor...

1. Because she puts up with your shit. 2. Because she loves you unconditionally, even when you feel you don’t deserve it. 3. Because she is the only one who will be brutally honest with you, and whom you’ll still love even when the truth hurts. 4. Because sitting in silence with her is not at all awkward, and you love that. 5. Because she goes on Friday and Saturday night dinner dates with you. 6. Because you never run out of things to talk about. 7. Because she calls you to gossip on her way over to your house, which annoys you but also makes you laugh. 8. Because she encourages you every day to be your best self. 9. Because she supports your dreams and truly wants you to achieve them. 10. Because, even when you know she doesn’t want to hear it, you can tell her every single detail of a date, and she’ll act endlessly interested. 11. Because she calls your mom when she’s worried about you. 12. Because you can (and do) tell her everything. 13. Because when you guys go a day without talk...

1. Learn how to be friends with yourself. Self-hate and insecurity are terrible for you, and you’ll look back, inevitably, and say, “I had no reason not to be confident then! Why did I waste so much time not believing in myself?” 2. Develop really great friendships with other women. You don’t have to have a million friends, but you have to have a few good ones that you can lean on when you need support, celebrate with when life is good, and go to for advice. 3. Acquire the confidence to say “thanks but no thanks” to every guy who offers up a dating option that benefits him more than it benefits you. 4. Learn the difference between healthy cooking you can benefit from for the rest of your life and Pinterest cooking that will win you appreciative “yummmms” but are filled with cheese and fat and are generally terrible for your loved ones to ingest. 5. Learn how to feel confident in situations you feel very unconfident in. For me this was being able to take my car to the shop without feeli...

1. Be friends with different types of people. Don’t insulate your worldview by only socializing with those who are fundamentally the same as you. 2. Read. Do you know how few people are reading anything other than a few lines of an article here and there? Few. Do you know why it matters? Because a book you read in a few days this week can change the way you think about something for decades to come. 3. Question yourself, and honor your doubt. People who aren’t secure enough to do this stagnate. 4. Be willing to live the way other people won’t, so you can live the way other people can’t. 5. Learn how to cook things you enjoy more than you enjoy ordering out. 6. Learn how to budget your money in a way that makes you feel responsible and liberated, not restricted. 7. Put away a bit of money each month, however much you can afford (and don’t worry if there are setbacks along the way). Compounded interest is no joke. 8. Take on a side gig exclusively for the sake of that savings account. It...

1. This is going to be your way in When a group of people laugh, people will instinctively look at the person they feel closest to in that group. Read: wanna know who wants to bone who? Look at who they look at when everyone laughs. 2. Use it to your advantage If you get yourself to be really happy and excited to see other people, they will react the same to you. It doesn’t always happen the first time, but it will definitely happen next time. 3. Eye contact is key If you ask someone a question and they only partially answer just wait. If you stay silent and keep eye contact they will usually continue talking. 4. ARE YOU PUMPED The moment your alarm wakes you up, immediately react by sitting up, pump your fists and shout “YEAH!” 5. *theycan’tseemetheycan’tseeme* If you publicly pass audible gas close your eyes so no one can see you. 6. Look at feet Pay attention to people’s feet. If you approach two people in the middle of a conversation, and they only turn their torsos and not their f...

1. I don’t expect you to stay the same forever. I’ve never understood the complaint of “you’ve changed!” Isn’t that the point? Aren’t we constantly evolving? If not, we’re just stagnant. And that doesn’t sound like much of a life. We’re going to be different than who we were when we met. Maybe our goals will shift. Maybe our world views will expand. I never want you to feel stifled. I never want you to think I expect you to remain exactly the man I fell in love with. I want to grow with you. I want to fall in love with you again and again, including all the new parts of you. 2. I will be your biggest cheerleader and your most honest critic. Yeah, just a warning, I’m going to be the one obnoxiously cheering and clapping for you in the front row. But I’m ALSO going to be the one giving you real feedback. I will always be your number one fan, but that means I’ll tell you the truth too. Because I respect you too much not to. 3. We’re always going to have dogs. Like, always. This is how it ...
