What Makes Women Cringe?

1. Staring at her breasts You are more interested in her breasts than in her face, and you can't seem to take your eyes away from them. The worst thing is that you even think she likes having her chest ogled, which I can guarantee she doesn't.

What to do instead: Making consistent eye contact will make her feel like she's the only woman in the room. You may even want to compliment her eyes.

2. Checking out other women You're talking to her, but your eyes are roaming around so you don't miss out on any other hotties. You always keep an eye on other options in the room.

What to do instead: Keep your attention on her the whole time in order to make her feel like she's the hottest thing you've ever encountered.

3 Having weird habits Avoid picking scabs, constantly licking your lips or displaying any other little tics that make you look nervous.

What to do instead: If you're nervous, take a deep breath and slow down your breathing; this will also help you focus.

4. Being badly groomed Inadequate grooming includes smelling bad, having bad breath, botching your shave job, and wearing wrinkled clothing.

What to do instead: Get into the habit of doing a once-over in the mirror for some last minute touchups before approaching her.

5. Assuming that buying her a drink will get you some action

You believe that spending money on her will provide you with a ticket into her panties.

What to do instead: Approach her with no expectations; she'll sense your casual and easygoing personality, which in turn will help her relax.

6. Waiting the "obligatory" three days Even though you want to phone her the next day, you don't want to seem desperate, so you follow the golden rule of waiting three days to call her. This is predictable; she'll see right through it.

What to do instead: Surprise her by calling her the next evening. Believe me, if she's into you, she'll be happy you did.

7. Calling too often You call her more than once a day and leave a slew of messages, hoping that maybe she'll answer one of your calls.

What to do instead: Call only once a day and a maximum of two times before she calls you back. If she hasn't returned your call after you've called her twice, move on to other prospects.

8. Eating If you're hungry, eat before or after you speak to her on the phone for the first time. Whether it's an apple or a pop tart, she won't enjoy hearing crunching and slurping sounds during your conversation.

What to do instead: Setting aside some time to call her when you aren't rushed will give her the impression that the moment is specifically for her.

9. Being distracted You must give her your undivided attention. Therefore, avoid surfing the Net, watching TV or reading the newspaper while you're chatting.

What to do instead: If you are the type of person who gets easily distracted, allot a time limit for the phone call. Tell yourself (and only yourself) that you'll talk only for 10 minutes so that you will be able to give her your full attention.

10. Forgetting details about your first encounter Noise, alcoholic beverages and other distractions could all be a hindrance when it's time to recall her name and the details of her childhood.

What to do instead: When you first meet her, repeat her name after she introduces herself; this will help you remember it. Make a mental note of some of the information she tells you, like what she does for a living or things you have in common. Write it down when you get home if you need to. Remembering some of the major elements of her life will impress her and help you to secure that first date.

11. Being a conversation hog Talking too much about yourself without asking about her could make you look self-centered, even if you're only nervous.

What to do instead: To keep the conversation balanced, ask her the same questions she is asking you. Topics of discussion can include career, likes, dislikes, and family. Avoid touchy subjects like politics and religion until you know her better.

Yes, GO FIGURE ?
Those women who want their man to have " NICE " fingernails, but, want the man to be a manly man, knowledge in fixing cars, building things, getting his hands dirty, but, cringe if his fingernails are dirty under the nails.

It's called the La La land syndrome.
Your right, the Brad pit syndrome, and women accuse men for the motives of the affection of their desire is looks and attractiveness ???????
Women do the same thing, and sometimes are worse than men are.
It's not that women mind men looking or ogling, it's " WHO " is doing the ogling.

[KeyesPlease]

"ogling". I believe the politically correct term is "lookism". I think there was a lawsuite about that.

[KeyesPlease]

correction "lawsuit"

[Prophet in the wilderness]

Incredible, let me say that again, just incredible !
So now ( thanks to feminism and PC ) we now have the " EYE POLICE " and the " THOUGHT POLICE " ..... Orwellian world, Orwell would have been proud.

For as much as I use, you don't even know it's there; just enough. Usually use Clairol.

Staring at her breasts

Thank the Wonderbra, ladies!! Biggest turn-off for me is tattooed breasts.

[RolandBurnam]

you are sooo not-gellin'

[theFIRMbss]

>Thank the Wonderbra, ladies!!

At a local store,
a young girl about nineteen
once wore a sweatshirt

with TINY letters
on her chest (the shirt's brand name).
I said to the girl,

"It's just not fair -- girls
want us not to stare at them,
then they wear little

letters on their breasts
we have to stare at to read!"
I was joking, but

the girl got huffy,
said, "I don't appreciate
that little comment!"

and left all scowling.
I still don't know exactly
why she got pissed off.

(She's talked to me since,
but I haven't had the nerve
to bring up her shirt.)

the girl got huffy, said, "I don't appreciate that little comment!"

and left all scowling. I still don't know exactly why she got pissed off.

I do. You weren't the kind of man she wanted to have notice the tiny letters. ;)

[theFIRMbss]

>left all scowling. I still don't know exactly why she got pissed off
>>I do. You weren't the kind of man she wanted to have notice the tiny letters. ;)

Yeah, there's that. But then
a young Canadian girl
recently sang this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm the one that's honking at you cuz I left late again

Hey! Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey!

Get tangled up in me

Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills. You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills.

And if she's "hut", tell her you like her bangs.

[pissant]

what is "hut"

[grellis]

Speaking of metrosexuals, heteronormals, et al... I have been wondering: What would be a good euphemism for a person who enjoys winkwinknudgenudge with their own, lawful, opposite sex spouse? At first I thought "martisexual," referring to matrimony, but that would actually mean a preference for having sex with one's own mother.

Any thoughts? On a euphemism, I mean, not matrisexuality.

[pissant]

for guys it would be either a nagosexual or a ballandchainosexual. ;o)

[CheneyChick]

what is "hut"

Pedro's pronunciation of "hot".

[pissant]

Oh I see. So complimenting a (hot) gals bangs is a big winner? I always thought commenting on a gals moustache was a good icebreaker. ;o)

[CheneyChick]

It's all in the Napoleon Dynamite movie.... Did you see it?

[pissant]

No, maybe that's why I'm floundering here!!!
