So it’s the end of your date, following a great dinner and good conversation. You want to kiss her good night. But how do you know if the timing is right? Many men fail to recognize the signs a woman is interested in them and also when a woman wants to be kissed. To know if she's ready to be kissed, here are 5 clues to look for:

Marriage is one of the most important things—and one of the most life-changing endeavors—any of us will undertake in life. You have to be absolutely sure that the woman in your life is someone you’ll be happy spending time with day in and day out, and certain characteristics can make it a little clearer to you that she’s the one. Here are 10 signs that the woman in your life will make a good wife.


1. She's trustworthy and loyal
A great wife loves her man…flaws and all, and takes the time to show him how much she appreciates him every day and will not be out doing something she shouldn’t be when you are apart. This type of woman is ready to go to war with you and take on whatever obstacle life presents.


2. She's emotionally stable
Your future bride should display confidence, have a real life of her own, be able to stand on her own emotionally and should be happily going in her own positive direction with no signs of emotional baggage. Furthermore, she should be able to meet you at an intellectual level, constantly surprise you, keep you on your toes and deepen your attraction past the physical realm.


3. The two of you have similar interests
If there are things you both like to do, that's a good sign you are entering a marriage of happiness and longevity.


4. She respects you
The woman you decide to marry should be a genuine person who considers you in every situation and will be on your side no matter what. She should not be the type that will be checking out other guys, but will keep her attention focused on you, the man in her life.


5. The two of you have great communication
There is nothing more important in a relationship than communication, and if you are considering making it official by marrying her, you have to feel comfortable talking with her about any and everything. The more you communicate with your woman, the less likely the two of you will get into arguments because you both will be able to talk about your problems instead of holding them in.


6. You have great intimacy together
The way you relate to each other in the bedroom has a big influence on whether the two of you will stay together after wedding vows are exchanged, so the intimacy between the two of you should be on point.


7. The two of you can laugh together
Mutual laughter is an essential component of a strong and healthy marriage. Romance is much better if you can see humor in the little things and can have a laugh together.


8. Her finances are in order
When you get married you will accumulate debt together, but you don’t want to marry someone who is up to her neck in debt and has no income. You may feel you should be taking care of her, but it still feels good knowing you have someone who has a reliable job, good credit and is responsible when it comes to managing her money.


9. She's beautiful inside and out
The woman you decide to marry should be beautiful on the inside and the outside and will not only want to look good for you, but also for herself. This doesn't mean that she has to look like a model, but she should be so well put together that you'll be proud to have her on your arm and enjoy the sight of her in any light.


10. You are both in agreement on kids
No marriage will thrive, nor perhaps will any marriage survive, in which one spouse wants children and the other rejects any notion of children. When considering marriage, if both of you are in agreement on the notion of children, you will likely be entering into a pleasurable, long-term marriage.

Guys spend a lot of time trying to figure out what attracts women, but unfortunately a lot of them are still confused about what characteristics women find unattractive in men. You are more likely to have good relationships with the opposite sex once you understand the following 10 behaviors women find unattractive.


1. Having poor hygiene
Inadequate grooming includes smelling bad, having bad breath, broken or stained teeth, botching your shave job and wearing wrinkled clothing. Furthermore, farting, burping, smelly pits, smelly genitals, and uncleanliness in general are not sexy and will keep women completely away from you.


2. Lack of ambition
Women love being around men who have their own life, ambitions and goals. Looks can take you a long way, but once a conversation gets going and women realize you have no goals whatsoever or you have goals but no concrete plan to achieve them, they will become instantly turned off.


3. Being irresponsible
Women don't want to invest their time and energy into guys who can't take care of their business and will more than likely become just another burden in their lives. The last thing a woman wants to deal with is a man who can’t ever seem to hold down a job or pay his own bills.


4. Lack of confidence
Women want their men to lead the way, protect them and make them feel secure. Constantly listing all your faults, feeling sorry for yourself and complaining about your circumstances are sure fire ways to turn a woman off and make her stay away from you for good.


5. Having no sense of humor
Whether you realize it or not, humor is critical to your success with women. In fact, a sense of humor usually tops a woman's attraction wish list and is one of the best ways to turn her on. No woman wants to be with a guy who can never laugh at himself, make a joke or find humor in a situation.


6. Men who give too many compliments
Women love compliments, but if you make too many or too big a compliment, most women won't believe you and will wonder what you are trying to sell them.


7. Being a drunk
Nothing is less attractive to a woman than a guy who is a sloppy drunk! If you can't maintain your alcohol consumption, the less likely you'll be able to use good judgment and avoid saying really stupid things around women.


8. Having a beer belly
Your stomach is predominantly what a woman sees when she looks at you. The stomach is also the main source of the excess weight on a man, so if you have a saggy, protruding pot belly, get rid of it!


9. Being obsessed with sports
Most single women are not obsessed with sports and they don't spend their weekends on the couch watching sports on TV. There's nothing wrong with like sports; but, having an obsession with sports can adversely affect your dating life and could even cause a woman to dump you and find someone else who can fulfill her needs that you are neglecting.


10. Being too aggressive
Women don't like it when a man they have just met insists on touching her too often. Women mostly prefer cool, calm, gentle and well-mannered men. When you are too aggressive with a woman, you creep her out, get pushed away and you get rejected.

There is no holiday gift quite as important or more difficult to choose successfully than the gift for the lady in your life. Whether you've only been dating for two weeks or you've been together for two years, most women will appreciate personable presents and the care you take in picking them out. So, when that time of year comes along where you have to open your heart and wallet to prove your love to your woman, consult this guide to find the perfect gift for your girl.


1. Lingerie
When holiday shopping for your girlfriend, sexy intimate wear is always a good choice that never gets old; however, keep in mind that not all lingerie is romantic. For example, something like, say, crotchless panties could be seen as slutty and more of a gift for you. When it comes to buying lingerie for your girlfriend, you have to think sensuous.


2. Popular Electronics
For the woman who happens to be a techie, popular items like digital cameras, portable reading devices and laptop computers are hot holiday gifts.


3. Aromatherapy candles
Scented candles are an inexpensive and charming gifts that can evoke strong emotional reactions and thus affect how she feels (especially around you).


4. Romantic getaway
A romantic getaway will provide an opportunity for the woman in your life who is always busy with her mundane activities to spend some time in an entirely different atmosphere that is relaxing and soothing to the mind.


5. Spa treatments
What woman wouldn't enjoy a day of pampering and being treated like a queen? Spa packages and treatments make great gifts for a woman, especially for one who could use some relaxation.


6. Body care kits
Women can never have enough beauty products, so get her a set of sensational body care, glamorous makeup and beauty goodies she can use.


7. Designer handbags
You can't go wrong with a designer handbag. It is the most useful and personal accessory a girl could possess, so if you plan to buy a purse for the lady in your life, you should know her personal preferences. You can figure that out by paying attention to what she’s carrying now.


8. Perfume
Perfumes or fragrances are always sure to make her happy; however, you really need to know a woman well before you head to the perfume counter and successfully choose a winner on your own. If you are not sure what type of scent to get her, during a casual conversation find out what kind of perfume she wears or do a little snooping on your own.


9. Diamond jewelry
Believe it when you hear the old cliche', "Diamonds are a girl's best friend." Whether it's a simple pair of diamond stud earrings or a more elaborate piece, every woman loves to receive diamond jewelry; however, because this type of jewelry is often expensive and can be easily shown off, it's usually reserved for serious relationships.


10. Bathrobe
An ordinary robe might seem like a boring gift, but selecting a luxurious one for her made from materials ranging from cozy terry and fleece to soft knits can make this a gift she'll be able to lounge in and enjoy all year round.

Every guy likes to wine and dine his woman, but when extravagance and material possessions become the focal point, one has to question whether the relationship is based on genuine love or just money. If you are suspicious that the woman you are dating is more interested in your wallet than you, here are 8 warning signs that your girlfriend is a gold digger.


1. She only suggests expensive gifts, trips, restaurants, etc.
A gold digger will turn her nose up at heartfelt, sentimental gifts because she is eager for gifts that are caked with money and expects nothing less than 4 star accommodations and food venues, shopping at designer stores and exotic vacations.


2. She has temper tantrums when you don't buy her things
A gold digger has the emotional age of a child and will not hesitate throwing a tantrum when things don't go her way--especially when you refuse to buy something for her or give her more money.


3. She's overly concerned about your financial status
A gold digger is interested in hearing about your career and financial status from day one. She is a very manipulative woman who pretends to be interested in you by asking questions about your occupation so she can discover your job title, measure your earnings' potential and ensure that you have plenty of income to spend on her and support her lifestyle.


4. She never pays for anything
When it comes time to pick up the check for a dinner, a movie or just about anything else the two of you are undertaking-- she is nowhere to be found. If you are the one who is constantly shelling out money in the relationship, that should be your sign that she's just using you.


5. She feels entitled
A gold digger will walk around feeling entitled to the good life without feeling any need to lift a finger to achieve it. Since she craves status and doesn’t have long-term goals, the gold digger expects to drive a brand new car with luxury features and wear $500 shoes without feeling any need to earn her own money to achieve it. This type of high-maintenance woman feels that it's her right to be able to pursue her big dreams at the expense of financial stability, and, coincidentally, hasn't considered who will foot the bill.


6. She attempts to trap men into pregnancy
Everybody knows that unless a woman decides to artificially inseminate herself, conceiving a child takes is a two person act and if you decide to have unprotected sex with a woman, then you should be man enough to accept the consequences. However, a gold digger will insist on having unprotected sex and will use lines like "I can't feel it with the condom on, just take it off" and attempt to use guilt trips on you, i.e., "If you love me, why do you need a condom?"

A gold digger hopes to get pregnant so she can use it to her financial advantage as she sees kids as a lifelong financial insurance policy. She will intentionally stop using her birth control without you knowing and will even go as far as tampering with condoms prior to intercourse, i.e., putting a pin through her boyfriend's condom package without him ever suspecting it.


7. She heavily relies on others
A gold digger knows that you don't want to see her get an eviction notice, or get her car repossessed, and you're a good person who will always be in a position to help, right? Wrong. There's a big difference between someone who's just fallen on bad times and a woman that completely relies on others for fulfilling her costs of living and purchasing needs.


8. She lacks any career aspirations
A gold digger will avoid the subject of getting a job and demonstrate that she has no intention of ever developing a career outright even she is perfectly capable of doing so.

If you’re thinking of asking your girlfriend to become your wife, deciding if you’re ready to make the commitment to marriage is only half the battle. You have to be absolutely sure that the woman in your life is someone you’ll be happy spending time with day in and day out. Love alone is not enough to make a marriage work, and certain characteristics are warning signs for a troubled marriage down the road. Here are some of the most obvious signs that your girlfriend is not marriage material.


1. She cuts you off from loved ones
A girlfriend who always becomes sick when it's time to spend quality time with your family and even forbids you from hanging out with your friends will only act worse after you say your vows.


2. She bails on you when times get tough
Life isn’t always a bowl of cherries, but that doesn't mean that the woman in your life should just disappear when the times get tough. If your girlfriend is not supportive of you emotionally through difficult times and only stands by you when things are going good, she's not the one you should be walking down the aisle with.

High maintenance women are those who need many things (money, material goods, affection) to be happy. They possess an almost obsessive attention to detail that extends beyond their person, to their homes, their pets, and yes, even their men. So, how can you distinguish whether or not the girl you thought was the best catch ever is really a prima donna behind closed doors? Read on to learn the 4 essential traits these demanding gals possess.

Is there any hope for you becoming more attractive to the opposite sex if you don't have extremely good looks, lots of money or a fancy car? Yes, if you're willing to make a couple of changes in your lifestyle and put in a little effort to show that you are a well-rounded person who is worth getting to know. While there are a hundred things you can do to make yourself a better person, here are our top 5 ways to become a more attractive guy.

Has your girlfriend suddenly started acting differently around you? Have you been trying to understand her actions but just can't seem to figure them out? Well, the reason she's been acting differently may be because she is losing interest in you.

In our article the 5 Signs She's Not Into You, we examined signs of a woman's low interest level in the early dating stages. But what about when you've been together for a while? If you see that your girlfriend exhibits any of the following warning signs, you have reason to be concerned.


1. She puts her girlfriends ahead of you
All women are entitled to a girl's night out here and there with their girlfriends, but if spending time with their girlfriends has begun to take priority over you and she consistently leaves you at home to gallivant in nightclubs, she is definitely losing interest in you.


2. She avoids public affection with you
If your girlfriend has allowed you to kiss her or hold her hand in public in the past and suddenly begins rejecting your advances or moves away from you without an obvious reason, you have reason to worry about her interest level in the relationship.


3. She's lost interest in sex (with you)
If she has suddenly become bored by your performance in bed and you're rarely hitting the sheets anymore, she may be wishing for someone else to rub her the right way.


4. She starts fights with you
If she has all of a sudden noticeably lowered her tolerance level for your little mistakes, constantly picks fights and turns every little thing into an argument or a disagreement, chances are her interest level has lowered and she is probably unhappy about the way your relationship is going.


5. She shows interest in other guys
If you notice your girlfriend openly checking out other guys and flirting with other men while you're right there beside her, it could be her way of sending you a subtle message that she's shopping around for another man.


6. She's put distance between you
A woman who is in a happy relationship always makes time for her partner. So if all of a sudden you don't see your girlfriend for a week or more and when she does answer your calls, she is busy and is always in a rush to get off the phone with you, something is definitely wrong.Take this as hint that she wants time apart to explore what it feels like to be away from you.

From the time we were infants, our parents told us to “be nice.” For the most part, it’s good advice; however, in a relationship, some men become too considerate, too helpful and too kind in an effort to seemingly align their lives with a woman’s wishes. Don't be one of them. Women appreciate a gentleman, but they don't respect pushovers and they don't feel attraction for "nice" guys who always kiss up to them. Here are 10 signs that you’re too nice.

So you had a good date with a hot girl and the two of you headed back to your place. Things heated up and you were into what you thought was a good make-out session when suddenly she remembered that she had to "get up early" and headed home. What happened? Truth is, you may have killed the mood without even realizing it.

While there are a lot of “dos” and “dont's” in the bedroom that most guys have little trouble following, some guys always do something that screws up the whole encounter. Here are 5 ways guys kill the mood with women.


1. Saying the wrong name in bed
Calling out the wrong name in bed can definitely kill the mood and almost guarantee that you won't be getting laid by that woman again. Saying the wrong name in bed will blow a woman's mind out of control and bring up certain questions, like, “Do you think about this other woman while you are having sex with me?” and “Do you wish you were with her?”


2. Answering the phone
One of the worst ways to put a damper on things in the bedroom and insult a woman is to halt action between the sheets in order to grab your phone. Stopping a make-out session to answer your phone not only kills the mood; it tells your partner that you don't think she's all that important in the first place.


3. Verbal slip-ups
Appropriate sexual language can get a woman's mind venturing into a myriad of fantasies; however, using phrases like "Who's your daddy?" or asking can your roommate join in are surefire ways to make her put her pants back on--fast!


4. Being a bad kisser
It doesn’t matter how hot you are, if you're a bad kisser, you won't get past first base. When you start approaching to embrace her, remember to control your tongue and avoid kissing her forcefully. Learn the art of kissing and refrain from fumbling around in her mouth, shoving your tongue down her throat or licking her chin, teeth, forehead, etc..


5. Poor hygiene
Mistakes such as not being clean in the appropriate places and having bad breath are highly inconsiderate and can make things come to a screeching halt. If sex happens spontaneously, as it often does, it doesn’t hurt to excuse yourself, go to the bathroom and quickly wash up before getting down to business.

In the dating world, a desperate man is one who is overeager, anxious, presumptuous and willing to be with any woman to avoid being alone. Women can spot desperation in a man from miles away, and if you suffer from it, you'll never stand a chance at getting any girl.

A man who is desperate may have a strong want and desire to have a relationship; however, due to having little experience in the romance and dating department, his behaviors can indicate low-self esteem and a host of other issues that turn women off and can actually be viewed as creepy and disturbing.

Here are 10 warning signs that can help you determine if you fit under the portrait of a desperate man:


1. Dropping your standards
Desperate men are prepared to drop their dating standards to fill the huge emotional void in their life. Whether they want children or intimacy the desperate man will date who they have too to avoid being alone. They will be with any woman just for the sake of being attached while failing to realize that it's better to be single and wait for the girl who is their type.


2. Constantly fishing for compliments
The desperate man has low self-esteem, a poor self-image and needs to constantly hear how great he is and be assured of things. It doesn't take long for women to get tired of constantly stroking your ego.


3. Overly Calling/Emailing/Texting Her
If you want to run a woman off quickly, one of the best ways to do it is to overly call, email or send text messages early in a relationship, especially when she hasn't returned any of your messages. The desperate man makes the fatal mistake of calling the woman he's dating and asking "Did you just call me?" after receiving a call from an unrecognized number.


4. You're always available
Always being available makes women think that you don't have a life of your own and actually lessens your own attractiveness, making you far less desirable. Being a challenge to women makes you more desirable.


5. You move too fast in relationships
The desperate man will spend every single day with a new girl for weeks and never know basic information about her that normally should have been covered in the first few dates. Although finding love is based on each individual relationship and some people move quicker than others, the desperate man will move so quickly with things like intimacy and sex that he will turn a woman off with his frantic desire for a relationship.


6. You're constantly buying her gifts
A desperate man constantly showers a woman with gifts without realizing that eventually she will become less thrilled and even annoyed receiving them. Even though the thought is nice, after a while the concept will begin to lose its meaning and she is going to get tired of always getting something.


7. Not giving her enough time and space
Desperate men tend to be a bit on the invasive side when they always need to hang out at a woman's home for hours on end, not respecting the fact that she has a life of her own life. Women don't always want to hang out with you day in and day out and will quickly end relationships with guys not respecting their need for space.


8. You're in constant agreement with everything she says
Desperate men just sit there and agree with everything a woman says, thinking that's what she wants. In reality, women want someone who is going to stimulate their minds and are not turned on by men they can completely control has no backbone.


9. You make her the center of your life too fast
Desperate men tend to make the first woman that will go out with them the only person in their life and not take the time to continue dating and getting to know other women. Telling a woman "You're the only woman in the world for me" before the three-week period will have her running for the hills.


10. Being overly nice all the time
If a guy is too nice, too accommodating and tries to be the most giving person to a woman, she will begin to think he's being insincere and will lose romantic interest quickly. She'll also think that he's only trying to achieve one thing: to get into her pants.

Since the beginning of time, men have sought the attention of women, but very few know the key skills necessary to make a lasting impression on the women they want. In dating, making a woman come to you is the easy part; however, keeping her attention is the real challenge. Here are 4 ways to grab a woman's attention and keep it once you get it.


1. Be mysterious
A mistake most men make is exchanging their entire life story with a woman, especially on the first date. Women like a little mystery; however, this doesn't mean you should be boring and play the silent type. It just means you should be less forthcoming with details about your life. If a woman thinks she has you figured out, she will get bored; however, feed her a bit, but keep her curiosity growing and her interest in you will do the same. Don't lie to her or play mind games, but leave something hidden which will make her come back for more.


2. Make her miss you
Limiting your availability at the onset will also raise your value in her eyes, as it indicates that you have a sense of independence. As a relationship develops, it is essential to have a life of your own, so let her know that you have places to go and people to see. Let her wonder where you are, whom you're with and where you're going, and she will hope to cross paths with you more often than you think. You know the expression about absence making the heart grow fonder? Well, it's true.


3. Be interesting
A man with ideas, dreams and ambitions is exciting to be around. Women never feel attraction for a guy they perceive as desperate, needy or eager to please, but come across as a confident, self-aware guy who has a lot going on in his life and you'll be on the fast track to becoming irresistible to women. What woman could help but pay attention to a man that is engaged in the world, capable of bringing new and enlightening ideas into her world and constantly seeks personal growth and improvement?


4. Improve yourself
Most guys don’t take the time to work on themselves, but just as men demand that their women be good-looking, women demand and deserve the same. If you really want to grab a woman’s attention — and keep it — then be one of the few men who take the time to develop themselves into the kind of guy worthy of an amazing woman’s attention. Make sure you choose the right cologne, develop a good sense of style, stay well-groomed and always look your best.

As every man knows, there are some things you just can’t come right out and say to your girlfriend. Nevertheless, we're all probably guilty of saying something that we shouldn't have said to our girlfriends, and probably copped quite bit of heat from it too. While these secret thoughts can easily slip out during brain-dead moments, many relationship problems can be avoided by simply keeping your big mouth closed. Remove the following 10 phrases from your love lingo and you’ll reap the rewards.


1. "I'm not in the mood."
There are many excuses women use in the bedroom to get out of sex, from washing their hair to headaches. But if a guy says he's too tired or just not up for a go, all she will hear is you telling her she’s fat, or that you've already got some from your hot secretary at work.


2. "I hate your friends!"
Like it or not, a woman’s friends can have a huge influence on your relationship with her. If you want to keep your relationship running smoothly, always treat her friends with courtesy and politeness, even if it means being a little fake with the ones you can’t stand.


3. "Why do you talk so much?"
Unfortunately, most men don't realize that a woman's idea of communication means listening to what she has to say. If you value the relationship, you should listen to her. Otherwise you might risk having her find another man who will.


4. "I think we should have a threesome."
Sorry guys, but most women will simply refuse to get involved in a situation that they believe is a potential threat to their relationship, such as a threesome. Furthermore, merely suggesting the idea of a threesome can disintegrate your relationship and make her feel as though you're not really interested in having a serious relationship.
