How To Attract a Man and Keep Him

Imagine going through life, loveless. Sucks doesn’t it? And yet this is the situation that many women today are in. They are beautiful, smart, sexy and have flourishing careers. And yet their love life is stuck in a rut. Are you one of these women?

Do you lie awake at night thinking about Mr. Right? Do fantasize daily about the Prince Charming you have yet to meet? Do you wonder where all the good guys have gone to? If so then let me reveal to you how to attract a man and keep him.

Physical appearance. They say that love is blind but although this may be true people don’t fall in love at first glance. First, there is physical attraction. That’s why you have to pay attention to your appearance. This includes make-up and manner of dressing. With make-up, keep it light and casual in the day. Don’t put on too much make-up. Most guys can’t stand a woman who is too made up. Too much make-up may only smother you. Enhance your natural beauty. Keep it light. With regards to clothes don’t be a fashion victim. A fashion victim is someone who wears the latest trends even if it doesn’t look good on her. Wear clothes that look good on you and you are comfortable in.

Know how to carry a conversation. Being old and boring is the fastest way to turn off a guy. He’ll be looking around the room five minutes after meeting you if you can’t hold your own in a conversation. Being a good conversationalist can reel a guy in and then you can hook him. When I say this I don’t mean that you do all the talking. A huge part of being a good conversationalist is knowing how to listen.

Know his interests. We are naturally drawn to people who are most similar to us. People who have the same interests, think in the same way we do and are basically like us. We also like talking about the things that we are passionate about. In order to hook a guy find out what his interests are. Engage him in conversation and talk about the things he likes best.

Make him feel special. Who doesn’t want to feel special? No matter how wealthy or powerful we already are we always want to feel special. This is why we value people who value us. Once you have hooked your man, you can keep him by making him feel treasured and loved.

Know your worth. A guy won’t appreciate a woman who is willing to drop everything for him. Make your guy feel special but always know your worth. People will value you only as much as you value yourself. No one wants to be with a person who has low self-esteem. Be confident and place high value on yourself. Never allow your man to treat you like dirt.

Open your heart and close your eyes

So many times I have heard friends lamenting that the perfect man or woman for them just doesn?t exist. When you ask the person doing the crying what they want in a partner they describe someone good looking with a great figure, great personality, usually younger than them and with lots of money.

That’s usually coming from a person of mediocre looks, a dumpy figure, a number of personality quirks and no money. They are always quick to point out that once someone gets to know them, looks won?t count. Don?t get me wrong, you can usually see some good qualities in that person, knowing them as a friend. And princesses do kiss toads from time to time but let’s get realistic.

If you are truly looking for a great partner to share your life you have to take an honest look at yourself and really consider what is important to you. Really, honestly look at yourself. I just heard a 350 pound slob of a man say he would never go out with a woman who is overweight. Now when you get to know this guy you learn he?s hard working, smart and funny. But he isn?t rich or well known. And for him to dismiss a whole bunch of women based on their weight and then say he is looking for the right soul mate is very hypocritical.

While there is a saying that opposites attract the reality is that people who are alike, who have things in common are more likely to be happy with each other. Most people end up marrying someone whose looks would be rated similarly to them, whose personality has some quirks that can be lived with and whose economic situation is similar to theirs. We hear it all our lives and many of us spout the words- ?its what?s inside that counts? but then we end up sorting potential partners into categories by what they look like instead of getting to know them.

If you truly want to find a partner to share your life try giving the person with the dumpy figure, the odd personality or not so great job a chance. Go into any dating experience with an open mind, maybe the person that doesn?t fit your ideal partner profile at the beginning will become the light of your life.

The person who sticks rigidly to looking for a prince or princess will probably never marry and they are probably deep inside afraid of finding a person who wants to marry them anyway. Do you really, truly want a life partner? Then open your heart and close your eyes!

8 Myths About Single Parent Families

Single parent families are no longer considered “awkward.” There was once a time when these families were looked down upon or judged because of a lack of two parents in the household. Now, however, these families seem to be the norm. There has been an increase in the number of single parent families over the years and society has become familiar with the term. Is living in a single parent family really all that bad? The following are a few myths that you may have heard about this type of family.

1 Single parent families struggle financially and need welfare. Many people assume that just because a family has only one parent, it is struggling financially. There are many well off single parent families. With more parents than ever getting college degrees, it isn’t as difficult to take care of children in a single parent home. Not all single parents seek welfare to help take care of their children. Many handle the responsibility without the help of the government.

2 Single parents do not have time for their children. Because of the idea that single parents have to work more to make ends meet, it is automatically assumed that they do not have time for their children. This is untrue. Many single parents find time to work and spend time with the kids. Prioritizing is the key that’s help single parents keep a focus on the children. This may mean giving up a social life for the time being, but many parents are willing to do this for the well being of their children.

3 Children with single parents struggle academically. Not all children will struggle in school just because they are forced to live in a single parent family. In fact, many kids do very well and go on to live successful lives. Academic struggles derive from many factors, not just living in a home with only one parent. While it can play a role it the problem, it is not the only blame for it.

4 They also have emotional and social problems. Emotional and social problems are common in children who live in single parent homes. However, in some situations, children do just fine. They find ways to adapt and adjust to the situation. With the help of the parent, they can give totally normal lives with only one parent.

5 Divorce is always the cause of single parent families. A common misconception is that single parent families are the products of divorce. While divorce is the most common reason why these families exist, there are also single parent families that are the result of death, serious injury, or accident. The old saying “never judge a book by its cover” fit perfectly in to this situation. Never assume that you know the reason the single parent family has been formed.

6 Children from divorced families will get divorces when they are older. You have probably heard this time and time again. Studies have shown t hat children who live in divorces families are more likely to get a divorce, but there is no guarantee that this will happen. To say that they will get divorced is simply a misstatement. Marriage and divorce will be something that they will form their own opinions about when they are older.

7 Mothers always have custody of children. There myth is becoming more evident every single day. Dads are now stepping up to the plate and caring for their children. There are many dads who have chosen the responsibility and who have been given full custody of children during custody battles. The children do not always end up with the mother.

8 Children from single parent families are not as safe. Myth! Single parent homes do not determine the safety and security of children. Every situation is different. A safe and secure home is does not always contain two parents.

As you can see, there are many myths related to single parent families. The key to overcoming these myths is to realize that every situation is different. Children will handle events in life in different ways. Some will follow the norm and what is expected. Others, however, will overcome and succeed.
