9 Irresistible Flirting Tips – How To Sizzle and Dazzle the Opposite Sex

By: Joshua Goh


You don't have to be a movie star look-alike to sizzle and dazzle the opposite sex. All you need is a genuine sweet looking smile plus a few irresistible flirting tips.

1. For women, we preen or groom ourselves subconsciously when we are attracted to someone – by smoothing down our hair or clothes, checking our lipstick, or straightening a tie. Combine your grooming gesture with a smile and a gaze. You can also toss your hair to one side – a combination 1-2 punch of preening and a flash of neck.

2. A genuine, friendly smile is you’re most powerful. Behavior experts agree that a smile makes you more attractive and approachable. Guys, if a woman lock eyes and smiles with you three or more times in an evening, you have been given an unmistakably clear signal that she's interested. Make your move, if you don't, somebody else will.

3. Gaze the eyes with the person you're flirting with for a full five to six seconds, smile and then drop your fix. Do this at least three times in a ten to fifteen-minute period. Your target needs to know you are flirting with him; making eye contact is a universal signal of openness.

4. One of the more successful flirting techniques a woman can employ is to expose her neck. A head tilt, the classic hair flip, or the over-the-shoulder glance attracts men’s attention, exposes your neck, and gives you the opportunity to lock eyes. The over-the-shoulder move is extra-effective because it's sexy and sends a signal to your target that they are worth a second look.

5. Members of both sexes are subconsciously attracted to red, moist lips because they signal youth, sex and fertility. Red also increases a man's heart rate. How to capitalize on it? Wearing a red lipstick gives women’s lips not only a youthful color but also a more obvious smile and whiter teeth. Using a super-shiny lip gloss makes your lips look moist and kissable. Men or women should lick their lips subtly (you don't want to look like you're trying out for a porno flick) or bite the lower lip – both are extremely effective flirting behaviors.

6. Men should stand tall with the shoulders pulled back and squared; women are biologically attracted to more dominant men. Feel free to take up some space.

7. For women, crossing and uncrossing their legs is a surefire flirting technique, especially if you're wearing high heels. A woman crossing her legs appears seductive to men and it makes them desire to see more. Slipping the heel out of your shoe and dangling it on your toes is another trick. The arch of a foot sends a sexual message and mimics a woman's curves, and makes a man's heart race.

8. Once you and your flirting target start talking, the next step is to intensify the attraction. How? Smile and maintain eye contact, focus all of your attention on what they say. No one is more attractive than someone who gives you an undivided attention. Employ the nod and head tilt techniques. Smiling and laughing are crucial at this point – it the quickly puts the other person at ease. Making low-level contact by brushing the shoulder or elbow is another effective flirting technique.

9. People mirror each other’s body language – gestures, voice volume, posture, etc when they are attracted. Very subtly mirror your flirting target's behavior – if she leans forward, lean forward; if he scratches his head, scratch your head. When you mirror someone's behavior, they'll begin to feel, think and believe as though the two of you are connected.

Soul Mate or No Soul Mate





By: Ian Parker


Let’s face it, dating is tough. It’s even tougher when you have to get past the social hurdles of being gay. No matter what, you must always remember that it’s your first priority to be true to yourself and make sure you’re with the person you’re seeing for the right reasons. If you don’t look out for yourself, no one else will.

Some people go through life thinking that they will never find “The One.” So they settle. They settle for abusive relationships, selfish lovers, cheaters, and liars – just because they don’t want to be alone. They overlook the fact that sometimes being alone for a while is the best thing. Being alone gives you the opportunity to contemplate and decide what you’re looking for, where you want to look for it, and ultimately, where you want to be five or ten years down the road.

I’m not saying that you can plan out any relationship and follow each step of it like a schedule. The truth is, you never know what is going to happen. But if you know just a little bit of what you want out of a relationship, it will only be a benefit to you and the person you’re seeing. Nothing is worse than being with someone who doesn’t know what they want.

That being said, here are some things you ought to consider before giving your heart – your most precious possession – away.

1. Never settle for someone who is selfish. True, we are all selfish in some way or another; but in the grand scheme of things, you’ll want to be with someone who considers your feelings before acting. When you are working 3 jobs, and set aside a long-awaited Saturday night to spend with your loved one, you don’t expect them to go out, get drunk, and fall asleep before you get to their house. That is selfish. Choose someone who puts your feelings above and beyond everything else. “The One” will be waiting for you with a rose.

2. Speaking of roses, be sure to choose someone who is generous and thoughtful – someone who will surprise you with flowers or a nice dinner when you are tired and had a miserable day. They don’t have to do it all the time, but once in a while, to show they care makes all the difference in a relationship.

3. Never settle for someone who is judgmental of others. The more tolerant a person is of others, the more tolerant they will be of you.

4. Never settle for someone who drinks too much or takes drugs. They will never change.

5. Never settle for someone who puts you down and makes you feel unimportant. This person does not care about your feelings. Mistreating you gives them a sense of power. Avoid this person like the plague. If you are involved with them already, tell them to take a hike – even if it is the hardest thing you ever had to do. You’ll thank yourself one day when you do meet “The One.”

6. Never settle for someone who doesn’t know how to laugh and have fun, even in the most trying situations. Someone who can turn a rotten time into the best time is worthy of your time and love.

7. Never settle for someone who leaves you hanging about the future. If they can’t commit to you now, chances are they won’t be committing to you anytime soon. Don’t torture yourself chasing them around. You’ll be wasting your time.

8. Choose someone who helps you be the best person you can be. Be with someone who gives you good advice, and wants you to succeed.

9. Do not be with someone who is jealous – whether they are jealous of your relationships with your friends, or don’t trust you to go out without them there. Without trust, a relationship has no foundation.

10. Choose someone with a big heart, who will love you no matter what you do.

Try to keep these things in mind the next time you make a decision about love. More often than not, you will be grateful that you did.

Does Romance mean Sex

hello all,

Does ROMANCE MEANS SEX? or does Love + romance=Sex?
Of course not! NO NO NO! Sex is just sex (S= selfish, E= Enjoyment with X= Anything) but romance means a whole lot more things and it includes words and actions that both persons forming a relationship do together or to each other to show affection.

Romance is an action that contributes towards affections and actions by both parties that would make them become closer. It makes one or the other party FEELS SPECIAL. Romance can be the man holding a door open for the lady, show due respect, present her with a stalk or a bunch of flowers, send her/him a card, a box of choc to him/her, (men do love chocs too), kissing in the rain, surprises, fixing the kitchen sink, getting your hands dirty to fix the car, etc.

Romance can only fluorish if you allow it to come to you from the person whom you like. There must be 2 like minded person. After all, you need 2 hands to clap.

Rmance means Small thoughts and expressions, to show someone how special they are. It’s about the details, the effort taken for such nitty gritty stuff to brighten someone's life. Now, THAT is ROMANCE!

Everyday can be a romantic day. Eeryday can be Feb 14th. you need not wait for D-Day to send flowers or have this romantic feeling.

Women generally tend to have this pre-defined bullet points of how the partner should do to be romantic. she would be sorely disappointed when he fails several of the criterias or ALL of the criterias.

Romance can easily mean being there when you needed him the most, about giving emotional support, being a punching bag, a shoulder to cry on and lots more. What is the point of being romantic when he is not there when you needed him the most? RIGHT?

Most asian girls lament that their partner are less romantic compared to the westeners. Well, like we said earlier, if he is there for you when u needed him the most, now that is being romantic already. You must look below the surface of it all.

Advice for women: throw away that bullet points of yours and re-define romance. Give to receive. You need to act too by showing some small gestures to build that romance.
Advice for men: Be there when she needed you most, do not be stingy and buy some small gifts now and then to pamper her.


Well, Happy dating!

What to do if he is late?

hi all,

A comment said that guys do not call back too soon so as not to sound pushy. well, here is our thought.

if he takes a few hours to return call, then take a few hours to pick up. Monkey see, monkey do. This will keep the relationship reciprocal and balanced.

Men do not want to seem too eager. Women need to be independent. and not too eager even if he is the last Male on this planet earth.

When you go out dating, if the guy is late for a 7 pm date, the woman could call at 7:15 to ask where he is. If he is on the way, then it is ok. You can call again by 7:30pm. Do not seem desperate. do not call every 5 mins. The good girl will call every 5 mins and still be nice and sweet to him. (even though deep down she thinks she could jump down his throat. *Smile)

The woman of the 21st century will ask by 7:30 if he is showing up, and tell him that if he is not showing up in 10 mins time, she is leaving to do her own stuff (even if she has no stuff to do) .

That will definitely make him appreciate his date more.

Happy Dating!

Cheers,

To succeed in dating for the women of the 21st century

hello ladies,

You may just meet Mr. Right at any time. so look your best!

Never be too up front about yourself.

Never tell things which are confidential.

A enigmatic woman drives men wanting more ie. to know more about u.

Less is always more. Not clothing mind u but keeping your dates brief. not to worry if he never calls u thereafter. It only means that he is not interested in u. so, move on Dahlin!

Stay in shape at all times. Some men like fleshy women and some like tall and slender women. whichever it is, it is best to look lean and in shape.

Let your man foor the bill. if he wants to split the bill with u, u know what to DO ;) but u will still politely pay the bill.

Sex early in your dating game plan will ruin everything.

Never turn up early. It is a lady's perogative.right.

Never be too available when he wants you to be.

happy Dating!

Intellectual vs Physical attraction

hello all women,

Did u know that if a man is physically attracted to u at first glance or first meeting, the attraction may not sustain for a long time and may wear out once he finds out that both of u do not click "intellectually" or that u both may have different interests unless of course he wants a TROPHY GF!

To sustain the relationship for a longer period towards building a steady relationship and possibly towards marriage later, there must not only be intellectual but also physical attraction.

He will become more involved, available, and start pursuing u and u are no longer stuck with an unavailable or non-committal guy. It is fun to be chased and feel LOVED!

What She SAYS, what She MEANT

hello Men,

She says, I think i want to..."
She meant, "I have already made up my mind. Just agree with me!"
She says, "Maybe".
She meant, "No!".
She says "I look fat"
She meant, "Tell me I'm slim and still look gorgeous!"

Sometimes women like to contradict themselves.
She says, "Yes" but she actually meant, "No!"

She says, " You look tired, let's pay the bill and go!"
She meant, " I'm bored with you and i want to go home."

when she is more grumpy than usual, it means that she is having her period blues and the guy better watch out not to say the wrong thing!

Afterall, are MEn not from MARS and women from VENUS?

we will write more later!

have a successful dating for the day,

cheers!!

why not palm read? The Ultimate!

Hey there!

Someone just told us that every time he goes out on a date and does a little palm reading for fun with his date, the date would always end up well! Of course, u must make sure you tell her all the good stuff.

Palm reading is a very popular practice in Hong Kong. Almost everyone consult palm reading about their life, business, future, career etc.

This is the ultimate ice breaker.
Learn how to read the future from her palm:
a) You can hold her hand while reading.
Reading palms is always good for fun, in a relaxed atmosphere. All women love it.
You can get sexual without actually being sexual ("You will have 5 children and uncountable love affairs").

b) This gets her fantasies building
You make her interested in what u are telling her and her future

c)She will be curious about u as not many people can read palm.

d)You show her that she can be your friend (since she already tells you her secrets)
You are surrounded by a mystery ("Hey, does this fella really know everything about me? Who is he anyway?")

Go check out that palm reading book. Some ideas off our head are some books from Lillian Too , the famed feng shui master. She is more into fengshui but there are some topics on palm reading.

The ULTIMATE no fail method to break the ice!

REMEMBER! TO ensure success in your date, make sure you tell her all the good and fun stuff!

Happy Dating!

I want to IMPRESS my date: Part 2

Hello Friends,

If you had missed the recent Valentine Day with no date, Cheer Up! It is not the end of the world and there are millions of men and women out there who are just like you, still searching for that someone to fill the void in their life!

In our first part, we discussed that in order to IMPRESS your date, you must not be a motor mouth, you must not monopolise the whole conversation etc...

Here, we will discuss further How to IMPRESS your date:

1) SMILE!
Is it that difficult to smile? when you smile, the whole world smile with you. When you smile, it shows that you are friendly. Who wants to date a sour face right?

Advice for men: When u smile and joke a little, the ice is easier to break and the women will like you better compared to someone who is serious and looks dull and grumpy.


Advice for women: When u smile, YOU will suddenly woo the men's heart and he will like you better as a friend and/or gf later. Guys are always looking for that sweet faced beauty with pleasant characteristics.

2) Stand TALL
When you walk tall and sit straight, it shows that you are a confident person. who wants to date a person who thinks the world is ending any minute and feeling depressed all the time? Look successful! No one likes being around a loser! A total turn off.

3) Complaint Not
In one of our speed dating sessions, a professional lady was dating another movie producer (guy). when the guy asked " How do you do?" Well, it sent the lady off on an endless tour of complaints about her work, boss, colleagues, family and etc.
Hello! We are meeting for the first time, who wants to listen to all your complaints. I am not Aunt Thelma! So obviously , the producer gave her an "X" in the result card sheet.

4) Can you give me that DEEP VIOCE?
Deep voice is considered very SEXY! Try it and you will surprise even yourself.

5) Money, money
Money is a taboo subject during the first date. If you talk too much about money, it will put the other party off unless he or she is after your money.

6) Conversation ideas for starters:

a) Say "Hi" and give each other that MILLION DOLLAR smile!
b) Compliment her on her dressing choice etc.
Follow up with: " Tell me, what is the secret behind your gorgeous silky hair?". This will keep the conversation going.
Discuss about food (e.g. when you meet her in a cafe/restaurant). This gets the senses going and creates a "stimulated" atmosphere.
c) Admire the atmosphere of the cafe/restaurant aloud!
d) Make her feel a million dollars worth. Yup! THat is your mission (men) on a 1st date.
e) Say she looks like this fabulous looking movie star/singer. ;)

We will write more later.

cheers,

How creative are you on Valentine's Day

Dear all,

Today is Valentine's Day! How creative are u? is it just a bunch of flowers sent to the office for the love of your life right now and then meet later for a romantic dinner with some gift exchange after which it is the movies and light snacks to comment about the movies and lovey-dovey small talk thereafter before you send your date home?

isn't that what every couple is doing? why not be more creative ? Can you think out of A box?

1) why not go to the sea-side for a romantic picnicking under the starS? then walk for miles bare footed along the beach with the breeze blowing against your face.

2) why not take the day off together and adorn the place where you spend the most time together. Paint your bedroom, update the kitchen,stock up your bathroom with soaps, candles and new decor. Do it together -- and don't forget to celebrate the finished project that evening over a glass of champagne! Don't forget that sexy lingerie!

or be less formal and celebrate the evening with some take-out for dinner? you will enjoy yourselves more because you had spend the day doing productive activities together. Ah! love is in the air!

3)Go somewhere nostalgic -- the dinner where you had your first date, or your favorite former "date night" spot. Share a choc-shake together. Whatever you do, think young.

4)Ever been jetskiing? skydiving? Why not arrange an experience that the two of you have always talked about but never dared to try. The shared excitement will create a new bond between you -- and the adrenalin pumped will benefit both of you later in the bedroom!

5) Announce over the intercom at the restaurant dinner that YOU LOVE this person with all your heart, soul, life and everything else that is in u and u will NEVER EVER LEAVE him/her for the rest of your life. Say, YOU COMPLETE ME: ( from Jerry McGuire, starring Tom Cruise and Zellweger)

Write to us and let us know what your creative ideas for the Valentine day would be!

cheers,

I want to IMPRESS my date

We will be covering this topic over a few parts ie the "How " to have an interesting date for the evening & YOUR body language. How can I impress my date?

1) Can I be myself on a date with regards to my usual talking habits, speed or chattiness?
Well! Advice no. 1: Do not be a motor mouth.
Advice no 2: Do not monopolise the whole conversation.

Advice no 3: Do a little mental survey of your date of whether he/she is a quiet person or could converse easily. Your date may be doing the same of you too. Try not to size up your date by staring at him/her from head to toe on the first date. That would be very intimidating and would put some people off.

You do not want to bore your date by the 10th minute RIGHT?



More later!

cheers,

Her: What should I wear?

Is it ok to dress to kill? dress sexily? or just simple dressing?

When you are going out on a 1st date, it is not advisable to dress to kill, plunging neckline or very short skirt. you do not want to give your date a wrong impression. Neither do you want to distract your date.

You want your date to focus on you when talking to you and not on your cleavage when talking to you. Of course there are those who say that if you have it, why not flaunt it? Sex & The City!

That depends on the situation you are in. You are not advised to flaunt too much on a first date. If you are meeting a guy for the first time, your safety is of prime consideration. You do not want to turn him on too much and ended up having a one night stand with him and there goes your date. Dress in a way that would make you look pretty with some accessories and yet at the same time make him respect you on a first date as a clean date.

We remember watching Sex & The City, and our favourite actress, Sarah Jessica Parker as the journalist wears great fashionable clothes and her Manola Blahnik high heels-3 inches or higher as she is considered short for the american standard. We love her clothes not to mention her great figure BUT why must she always wear her bra straps exposed behind a bare back? so ...no no! but she still looks great in whatever clothing she wears.

Remember , if you want to wear sexy clothes that gives a peek here and there. do not expose your under-wears, be it your bra strap, undies sticking out from your low cut jeans as you would be giving the impression that you are not bothered of your looks or just plain bad dresser.

Honestly, we would not recommend platform shoes on a date. One guy told us that he was rather put off by his date wearing a platform shoes that he never saw her again thereafter.

We will be writing more later!

Cheers!

Happy Dating!

Him: What should I wear?

Let's assume that you have a date set up this Saturday evening.

So, if you are a guy, what should you do next?
What should you do to impres your date? Do you need to memorise any poem to serenade your date?
Do you need to go out and rent a tuxedo?

First thing first, you have to make sure that you have made a booking at the restaurant where your date will have a meal with you. You also have to make sure that if you are going to watch a movie, you have already bought the movie tickets.
Never assume that you will have a good table at the restaurant or that you will be able to get good seats at the movie theatre. Remember! Never assume! As the saying goes, when you Assume, it makes an "Ass of you and me"! Many things could happen!

What next?

It is important that you look neat during the date. First impression is the last impression. Get your hair gelled, or trimmed. Wear a properly pressed shirt, properly tucked in with jeans or slacks/khakis. make sure the colours match. We highly recommend beige or brown coloured pants. it matches easily with blue shirts, white, red, green or any colour. Other suitable colour trousers besides blue jeans are black and perhaps white. Remember, if the tone for the shirt is soft, then you could wear a stronger colour for pants. if the colour for the shirt is strong like black/deep blue, then you could match it with lighter colour pants like white or beige.

We do not recommend men to wear floral shirts. We walked past one branded men boutique the other day and we saw a mannequin wearing a white floral shirt. Men who wear floral shirts look SISSY! unless of course if you are in Hawaii. Then it is ok !

Checks make you look square. It is not recommended to wear checks shirt and stripe pants. then you may just confuse your date's visions. :)

T-shirts are ok if you are on a casual date.

As for shoes, a pair of black leather shoes seem fine. NEVER WEAR SLIPPERS. DEFINITELY NO NO!

Lastly, spray on some nice and fresh smelling cologne to impress her! Brands that are a favourite are Davidoff, Polo, Chanel, YSL (try getting the scent for the macho men. The more classic scent are more for the businessman/older folks)
