Top 10 Biggest Turn-Offs for Men on a First Date

10. Over Make-up

Majority of men loves to date a woman who wears less make-up, and some prefer the natural look. Nonetheless, since its a first date, women need to showcase their feminine side, but overdoing it will not impress their date, but it will create disaster instead. If your date will happen at night, its advise to wear a darker shade of colors, but still depends on your skin tone. Hence, if you would have a date at night, a much simple make-up will do, and its a standard tip to all women if they are attending specific occasion or event. They still love a feminine yet simple look. 9. Acting too Dainty

This tip is for women who happens to have their first dates, and they act in a seemingly strange way that it seems that you are the most demure woman that they ever in their life. Dont be too girly that he needs to treat you as a special woman that day although its good for women to feel that they are different, and they need to be treated in a distinctive manner. Just act normal, and show him who you are, but not in a sense that you will become too much comfortable being with him. This is another edge that you have to watch that it might look like that you are sending a message that you want something more, or you are expecting that he likes you right away. 8. Poor Hygiene

This is not just a big NO for men, but for women as well. Make sure that you check your look, and smell your breath before leaving. To keep breath fresh the whole time that you are with him, you could bring any mint to freshen your breath up. Moreover, check your nails if they are properly trim especially if you are going to wear an open-toe shoes which also goes with your hand nails. Just any regular hygiene that you have to maintain proactively during regular days should be applied as well before you go on a date. Take a bath, apply perfume if needed, and of course apply deodorant. Some of the most complaints of men after their dates with women are body odor, and bad breath. 7. Aggressiveness

If there are women who are too demure and dainty on their first dates, there are others who are too aggressive thinking that the only way that they can get the man that they date is to have intimate moments right away. The wrong notion that men

are only after the sexual pleasure that they can have with their dates are just what the society has influences to the minds of the women. In fact, women will never have another date or would they expect a serious relationship if they see that they cannot respect you, and you are easy to get. Everything should be taken one step at a time. A simple kiss after your date will do, but dont give an impression that you want it. Despite that we are living in a modern world where one could say that women can do anything what men can do, but it does not include losing your virtue, and modesty. Remember that its your first date, it does not mean that you are going to marry that man when you date him, and he would be your boyfriend although thats one of the aims. Hence, dating only allows you to get to know others where you could make proper choices and selections. 6. Sharing Portfolio

Its nice that you get to know pieces of information from each other, but most of the women based on mens observation that they tend to over impress them by sharing the kind of profile that they have. Men dont need your resume, what they want is to know you in a different way. You dont need to tell them that you have finished this specific course, and you are working in this company, and so forth. If

he really needs that, he would rather ask your curriculum vitae. Its not really appropriate to discuss that because you are on a date not unless the guy asks you about that then you can share quick and short information. Just focus on getting to know each other by discovering each other likes, interests, and other stuff. 5. No Fair Share

It is true that when you are on a date that the traditional belief that men should shoulder all the expenses on your first date. Its now that you think, but they also expect some courtesy that you would also offer some share even a quite percentage. Remember that its just a date, and you are not going to marry him yet. Be extra cautious especially if the bill that he has to pay is a bit expensive and you are enjoying every bit of it. Of course, you would not expect that any man will ask you that you have to pay your share since its very unethical and rude to hear that. Hence, at the back of their minds they want you to give a portion on the total cost. 4. Big-Mouthed

Women are expected to talk much, and to be dominant when it comes to everything. Nonetheless, ladies dont bring that kind of behavior when you are on a date. Your date does not need chatter, he goes and approves on a date because he wants to mingle and get to know other women. Hence, if you would babble stuff like about your past relationships, and insignificant topics that have nothing to do with the reason why you go on a date. It should be a two-way communication where both of you can share and discuss things without him listening at you all the time. Be sensitive if you are taking the whole time talking, and he does not talk anymore, and would just listen on what you have to share and say more. Be sensitive in non-verbal gestures if he gets irritated and bored with you. 3. Dont be too nice

A guy would know if a girl is trying to show her too good to be true side. No one was born saint. It does not mean that you have to show the negatives that you have which everyone has. Nonetheless, dont limit yourself saying that you like the food being served on your table, although its exactly opposite. Being true to yourself and to your date is better than being too nice and saying repeatedly this answer Im okay. If you feel that you are not comfortable in the place where you date has brought you, just tell the guy straightly that you want some other place. Dont forget to say it nicely without offending the guy. Choose appropriate words where you could send the message to your date that you want to know him more, but there are things that you dont like about the food, and the place. In short, be honest. 2. Dont Make an Interview Questions

Ladies dont get an impression that you have to know everything in one sitting. You could not get to know the girl in one day when you go out with him. Take one step at a time even if you have this feeling that you already like him. Stop asking too much questions that might make him feel uncomfortable that you are intruding his private life, the fact that its your first meeting. Moreover, dont sound like that you are interviewing him especially if the pattern is like an interview questions that you tend to asks more and he answers more. Expect then that there will be no follow-up dates after this date. 1. One-Word Responses

If you would rarely talk, and be silent the whole time that you were on a date, you might send a different message to your date that you are not interested in knowing him more, you dont have any confidence on yourself, and you are bored. Stop

saying these lines Yeah, Im okay, Really?!, niceand a lot of short-line responses that he might even count how many words you have uttered the whole time that you were with him. Guy may not like the woman who talks that much; it does not mean that you will not talk either. In fact, this is the major turn-off for them that they have shared about the things that they hated the most with the women that they have dated. Its okay if you are nervous, but take a deep breath because he feels the same thing. Just relax.

Instead of mumbling, and gambling over his or her attitude if there is any, then decide now, if you want to really deal with the imperfections that he or she has. 8. You Know Each Others Weaknesses

This point could serve as an advantage and disadvantage on your part. Since it will be a second chance for you, you know exactly how to approach him or her when certain situations come. You know exactly the reaction, and the limits that you can do especially to those coupes who have been together for more than a decade or two, and have decided to quits, and later on got back to each other again. They know exactly every odd thing that his or her spouse has which could be advantageous because he or she has already adjusted or used to it. Hence, the major setback on it, it will either make the situations worse or if possible solutions can be made then that would be wonderful, but in most cases, there is a thin line of working everything successfully especially if one of his or flaws was the cause of the first separation. 7. Paranoia

You could think that he or she is cheating on you, or you may start creating stories out of nothing. You cant avoid it especially if that has been the main issue with him or her. You may forgive that person after you got back to him or her, but you cannot assure yourself that everything will go back to normal. In reality it will not be restored to the same blissful relationship that you have had with him or her. What you can only do is to set things straight with him or her about your fears, confusions, and even disillusion so you could meet halfway and if he or she is really honest that working for the second time your relationship is worth another try, then give it, but doubt would always be part of it.

In fact, you have to deal with the same root cause of the problem not until you have totally eradicated the poison that might kill the second opportunity of rekindling the love again. 4. Trust Decreased

Yes, you may have reached in agreement that one of you will not repeat or do the same mistake again, but you cannot assure yourself that you can trust your spouse or fiance again. Trust will automatically decrease not just as instantaneous as it should be, but in the process of time, the gradual mistrust has been developed. As much as you wanted to extend your total confidence in him or her, you cannot do it again anymore. In fact, it will take years until you have proven yourself that he or she has changed, and you have not notice any situation that put you on the same dilemma. Since both of you want it, you have to allow the time to heal all wounds, and get things back to normal, but not in the wink of an eye, but in the proper time. 3. Too Much Expectations

Dont expect that your spouse or fiance would be a person for you after you gave him or her second chance that he or she wants. Of course, since both of you came from different families, with different backgrounds and beliefs that the things that have grown with him or her cannot be shunned away quickly. Of course, you have made a promise to each other which every couple done who gave their relationship a second try, because of the thought that he or she will meet your expectations since its a second break for you. Consistency is the challenge since both of you have weaknesses to overcome, and attitude to change then you have to take time, wait, and dont force that person to do it at once. 2. Changes Do Not Happen Overnight

It is true that there are people who are willing to change for the cause of their love, and relationship. Hence, it does not mean that it can be overnight. You have to know that person has feelings, appetites, and of course weaknesses. He or she needs your help so he can change not for the better, but a change for a permanent cause. Since you gave that person a second try, then give as well time wherein she or he can acknowledge her or his fault. No one really changes not until that person has reached a full comprehension of what he or she has done wrong. Realization is the key for anyone to turn into a new leaf. 1. Pain Remains

It is true that you can forgive, but it does not guarantee anyone that the heart can also forget the cause of that pain of your separation after youve just gotten back from each others arms again. You would still feel the pain because you love that

person especially if its still fresh. It will take time and effort not just for you, but to the side of the person who is the cause the heartache to trust you again. You cannot rush things, the same way in letting go of the pain. Time will come that you will no longer be hurt, but since you wished to stay with him or her again, then, you have to cross that bridge of releasing the pain until you have gained the full confidence towards him or her, where you can smile again, and love that person even more.

10 Signs that Your Partner is Cheating on You


10. Instinct

Women are not just entitled to an almost accurate gut feeling or human instinct. Anyone has the ability to perceive if a partner is up to something or not, but the ladies have that special gift. Almost always based on the stories that have been shared by many couples who have experienced cheating had discovered their partners affairs, all by a simple unexplainable feeling.

9. Sudden Increased on Expenses/Bills

For most women, they are much concerned on the detail expenses at home from the electric bill down to spending that spouses do in the office and for transportation. If you are accustomed to typical expenses that you have been spending and there are sudden unexplained receipts and increased collection in mobile phone minute charges, then you better analyze and compare.

8. Financial Control

If there is a sudden secrecy when it comes to financial savings like amount of deposits in the bank if you have one, an abrupt change in the ATM password, or a request of separate accounts? You have to ask your spouse why, or observe further before making an action.

7. Frequent Lies

6. More Time with Friends

If your partner tends to spend time or hang out with friends, especially if its with the opposite sex from work, then its time for you to think twice, particularly if it happens too often than enough.

5. Disinterest in Intimate Moments

Special time together as a couple is one way of enriching the love that you have for each other. Hence, if that fire or excitement has gradually waned on his or her part, then thats the time that you discuss the problem. However, if your partner will rationalize work-related problems like Im tired, I dont have time, and other excuses to give an ample justification in avoiding intimate moments with you, then you have to be worried because it is one of the big signs of infidelity.

4. Communication Decreases

Talking before you sleep and sharing what happened the whole day where one of you has been out of the house working or both of you have been busy in other tasks, must be shared to each other as one way of assuring to your partner that your day went well and fine. Hence, if simple things cannot be talked about, even in as short as 15 to 20 minutes, then, dont be satisfied with the answer of same as usual, which would be followed by lets sleep. Another thing, if your partner rarely texts or calls you and could not express the language of love that you do, its already a big sign.

3. Becomes More Conscious on Physical Looks

Its good that your spouse makes himself or herself attractive or presentable, since it is part of personal grooming. Hence, if your partner changes the usual routine that he or she has before leaving the house like checking too much on the mirror,

buying new clothes which are not needed, becoming more vain, and other things, then its time for you to be alert.

2. Busy Texting on Mobile Phones/Computers

Does he or she spend more time on his or her mobile phones and computers when he or she gets home rather than with you and your kids? If this sign happens too much than frequent, then you have to think more than twice. Who are those people that he or she spends his or her time so much on phone? Is he or she too discreet on personal stuff like cellphones and laptops and he or she could not let you check them? Darn, thats the biggest hint that you could ever have.

1. Mood Swings

Mood swings are common to humans that everyone has that. There are times that you dont feel good because of factors like work, stress, problems, and other that influence your behavior and attitude greatly. However, if your partner is only different to you, but to everyone else he or she is acting okay, then be alarmed.

Top 10 Fashion Tips For Ladies to Look Thinner


10. Look Fine with a V-neckline

V is for vertical and for V-necklines. The stress on this phrase can never be stronger addressed as such patterns found in clothing makes a person taller and thinner. When the right line is worn, it actually improves facial features such as the cheekbone, the chin, the shape of the mouth, and even the neck. The V formation from the chest creates a virtual line from the shoulders going upward, making the face look more slender, the neck a bit longer, and the cheeks a bit thinner.

9. Wear Clothes that Have Vertical Lines

Vertical lines are not just about wearing stripes that go from the head down to the tummy area. If this is your perception, then these lines can also be replaced by seams, other fashion details such as curls or prints, and you can even utilize the vertical panel of the fabric. It provides the illusion that you are taller and that other bulging figures such as your waist or your pelvic area are slimmer and more subtle. Consider lines that are not too thick as it may defeat the purpose of actually making people perceive your enhanced height and stature. You may also opt to be more conservative with lines, especially if you are shorter, as too many lines can easily break the disguise you are trying to put up. Oh, and do not go with stripes with both upper and lower clothing. It may make you look ridiculous.

8. Look for Shoes with Pointed Toes and High Heels

When you wear shoes that have pointed toes and high heels combined, it makes the person look taller and more slender as the legs are lengthened with the point of the toes and the heels itself. In fact, when you take someones picture wearing such footwear, standing up straight, you will fall for the trick that the person is thinner with such leg lines enhanced. You may opt to wear ones that are plain in color and not too decorated as the silhouette look may become distracted. Also, when you decide to wear pumps, make sure that the toes are not too rounded or the sole too high as it can be too obvious on what you want to achieve. Wearing 4-inch heels may also help but it is more recommended for you to wear heel heights that are comfortable to the knees.

7. Jackets for Success

Jackets, aside from being great body warmers, can be used as accessories to make you look thinner, taller, and hotter. For the overall appearance of the jacket, purchase ones that have long or sleeves, lengths that end just above the hips, and do not have pockets or other distractions. All these features give off that taller feeling as the arms, shoulders, and legs are accentuated and focused. In order for it to help you become thinner, choose fabrics that are not too thick or bulky as it can add unnecessary inches for you. Make sure that closing the jacket does not create gaps or excessive openings in your bust as your bulges under the arms and around the waist can be too obvious. Plain colored jackets are greatly appreciated to make people concentrate on how you look and not what you are wearing.

6. Go Chic with Monochromatic

Monochromatic clothing, or simply defined as one color clothing, is the method of wearing one shade of color for your dress, which includes your upper and lower garments. Ideally speaking, black should be the tone that sets everything, when one needs to enhance the figure of the legs, the hips, the waist, and even the shoulders or arms. A definitive silhouette makes a person look taller and leaner. However, too much black will not always fit for some occasion. In case you need to shift a bit, you may choose darker shades of any color you could think of, or you may opt for some mix and match where the main color should be the darker shade and the lighter color should pair off with the main color of choice. Even small accessories like watches, scarves, and even earrings can alter things a bit.

5. Show Flair with Your Hair

Your hair, also known as your crowning glory, can also affect how thin or sexy you look. In fact, most people who have the appropriate kind of do may be able to add some additional fat or more refined lines on their face, where hairlines may affect the cheeks, the eyes, the nose, and even the neck. Raising or separating the hair from the shoulder can give an effect that you look taller. With the shoulders already bare, plus adding some dark-shaded clothing with a conservative vneckline, you will just look marvelous with it. Also, having the appropriate bangs can enhance facial features that attribute to facial lines that may appear flat, rounded, or chubby.

4. Sport the Right Skirt

The right skirt may be a bit tricky at first, especially if you are not that conscious on how your figure looks like. The goal of wearing the right clothing can only be achieved if it hides the lines between the pelvis and the thighs, if it improves the appearance of your waist size, and if it makes you look taller. The length of the skirt should be right about or just below your knee. Why? The knee becomes a hint for most people on what you are trying to show or hide. If its too low, then your calves become the next center of attention. If its too high, then your thighs are taken as the focal point. So having your skirt at the right length can do wonders for you. A-lines and straight skirts are also recommended as it does the trick of making your lines not too noticeable as it just goes with how you measure. Full skirts become a disaster as it may just accentuate the lines that you are trying to hide in the first place.

3. Slip in Jeans with the Right Cut

Jeans these days now have different styles and cuts to choose from. And with the trend these days, skinny jeans are in demand for the ladies that would like to flaunt their slender and tight legs. This does not work out for those who are a bit conscious because even though dark-washed jeans do not show how your legs really look like in skin tone, the very silhouette created already tickles the mind and makes people imagine things. What you need to wear are jeans that are either straight or bootleg cut. The lines that are established on the lower knee downwards make an impression that the legs are not that uptight, especially that the calf and the feet are given the right allowance.

2. Good Feeling with Well-Fitting Clothing

Well-fitting clothing can be asserted on how you would look and feel like if you have already worn your desired dress. When clothes are too loose, you may have achieved hiding your natural body lines, but you will appear bigger than you ought to be as people will be clueless of your curves and shape. However, if your clothing is too tight, all the bulges, the extra inches, and the hanging fat may be too emphasized that you may no longer feel like facing the crowd. Clothes that fit well are not too constrained, nor is it too baggy. Say about an inch may not be too much of comfort for you, but people will find it amazing on how your movement can become fluid with your dress. The right amount of allowance can go a long way.

1. Recompense with Confidence

At the end of the day, your confidence will be the one thing that matters to you. Although you may have followed the nine other tips listed in this list, but you may not feel comfortable with yourself, then all these may fail you. You need to understand that ladies are able to present themselves well not just because of the clothes. More importantly, self-esteem and confidence is important when you want things to work for your good. Wearing sexy plus looking and feeling thinner does wonders for you that people can even feel your fitter and thinner aura; making everything fall into place.
