Online dating rule addition....

Many of you (hopefully) read my Proposed Rules of Online Dating but I left off a key few...

Rule Number Eleven: Don't have her over promising she won't be the only girl only to have that fall through. When texting someone you're really into, don't say "it'll be me and my buddies. They're bringing their significant others so you won't be the only one, promise!" And then have them not only "forget" to bring their SOs but also show up an hour late. While I understand you can't see the future that your buddies won't bring their SOs, make sure THEY know I'm coming so they don't go "Oh shoot man I had no idea she'd be here or I would have brought *insert name of missing female here*"

Rule Number Twelve: When/if while hanging out with buddies and date, if said buddies make fun of said date... defend her. I think this goes without saying, but if buddies start to pick on your new date, defend her or she'll (if anything like me) mouth off to them to shut them up herself. And when/if she does and one friend looks back at you like "whoa who brought the bitch?" don't just sit there in silence staring at your pizza like it's the most interesting thing in the room at the moment. I'm a firm believer in if you date someone you better like their friends because you'll be seeing more of them throughout the relationship. So make sure her first impressions of your buddies aren't "Wow they're.... interesting"

Rule Number Thirteen: If you have a conversation about the "relationship" being over, it's over. It is hard enough to actually have the big girl conversation with someone they barely know (and don't really care about) saying the "relationship" is over ESPECIALLY when she knows it's the opposite of what the guy was feeling. Best thing (for both people) is to let it GO and move on. eHarm delievers like 5 dates a day... pick yourself up, dust yourself off and try again just not with me...

I'm sure I'll be able to think up more in the coming dates... stay tuned!!

Until next time...
