Ever wonder why you always want to know what other is doing? It’s the curiosity gene in us. If you just had a girlfriend and the time both of you get to know each other is not long. Here are 5 ways that make yourself mysterious so that this will make your girlfriend think and love you more, when trying to figure you out.

1. Leave out the details
Try to leave out the details without lying. For example, if you’re the owner of a computer company, you can just tell her you’re in “computer repairing”. Give room for “eager surprises” later on.

2. Have a good general knowledge and lots of common sense
A good way to get a woman to “never figure you out” is by knowing a little bit of everything. Just when she figures she knows you, you surprise her by showing you skills at something she’d never think you’d be good at.

3. Have an exciting life and live your purpose
If you live a boring life, then it will not take a woman very long to “run out of things” to discover about you. Live an exciting life, and there’ll always be things happening to you – things you can share with a woman.

4. Show additional insight
Know enough about the world to show some additional insight on a particular subject that the woman may not see or recognize. This is a GREAT way of getting both men and women to respect you.

5. Speak just enough, but never too much
Speak just enough to create a sense of mystery and excitement around you, but not enough for you the aura of mystery to drop, this will attract the person more.

Dale Carnegie is ancient. He was born 120 years ago, and probably best remembered on pioneering social engineering. He wrote the one of world’s best seller, “How to win friends and influence people” a 30 million copy hit which got translated into numerous languages. Here are some of my favorite tips.

1. Create your own emotions
Use your emotions to your own advantage. If you’re feeling down, then you can often shake it off by changing the way you look, the way you sit and stand. Positive emotions and body language are a lot more pleasurable for everyone around you. Who wants to hang out with a douche bag right?

2. Remember its not always logic when it comes to girls
This is the key, logic is good but in the end, life doesn’t always go straight does it? We work and act on emotions. We send and receive emotions through body language and tone. Be careful with what you say and indicate.

3.Three things you’re better off avoiding
“Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving.”

These things are hard to avoid, but in the end if these C’s are negativing and affecting your life. it can trap you in a negative spiral of complaints.So this can really put an obstacle in the way for your interactions or relationships.

4. Listen then talk
“The royal road to a man’s heart is to talk to him about the things he treasures most.”

Classic advice. Don’t talk too much about yourself and your life. Listen to what others have to say.

5. Focus outwards, not inward
“You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.”

A lot of people make the mistake of doing the latter, because it’s so easy to talk about yourself. Don’t make that mistake.

One hard thing about this can be to be genuinely interested in the other guy/gal. Your genuine interest is projected though your body language and tonality. So, just waiting for the other person to stop talking so you can talk again isn’t really genuine interest. And that may shine through. And so your interactions will suffer.

Words can be a great way to show someone your true feelings. Some of the greatest love poems on record were inspired by romantic love. But if words just don’t come easy, you can always show your new companion how you feel about them through pantomime. Actions speak louder than words. So in lieu of sweet nothings, try the following romantic gestures on for size:

• Call for absolutely no reason
• Surprise him with a home cooked meal, candles and all
• Buy new lingerie
• Send a flower every day
• Carve your names in a tree
• Make her breakfast in bed
• Serenade her with a love song
• Wash each others hair
• Perform a full-body massage
• Present her with the firs edition of their favorite book
• Have a good fight
• Pick him up from work
• Bake your famous home made dessert

*pantomime-the art or technique of conveying emotions, actions, feelings, etc., by gestures without speech.

Ever been troubled on the issue of-what to wear, where to go, what to say, what to do and what not to do, during a first date?

All this pressure to make a good first impression can be overwhelming. After all, the rationale of a first date is to judge (as much as we don’t like to admit it) whether or not we think we’d like to get to know each other better. The first impression do matters. But first dates don’t necessary have to be elaborate or fancy in order for you to secure that coveted second or third date.

In the past, chivalry set the path. Nowadays, some women may get offended even when the door is held open or their seat is pulled out for them. Consequently, many single people are at a loss when it comes to knowing what to do and when to do it. And while there may not be an ultimate list of should and should not, there are still some common dating tips that everyone can agree on.

• Be attentive and listened well to your date. Maintaining frequent eye contacts during a date make other feel that you are interested in the conversation and more sincere. Throw a question or two occasionally to make the communication more participating.
• Nothing worse, where you come to a stalemate in a date. Prepare and plan you date shown that you have put thoughts in it.
• Suggest splitting the bills give guys a good impression of you. Sure, you were invited out and your date is expected to pay but offer anyway. And if your date picks up the tab, offer to pay the next time.
• Turning off your cell phone or set it to vibrate mode show your particularistic in a uninterrupted date. It is also polite to stop the wandering eyes. There is nothing ruder than taking a casual call from a friend or ogling the waitress at the next table while your date is attempting to hold your attention.
• When mentioning about past relationship, don’t start burping out the wacky “stuffs” you both had done. Know what to tell and what cannot be reveal.
• Make good word of your promises. If you say you’re going to call!, it better to do so. If you didn’t have a good time then be courteous, and don’t promise to get in touch when you really have no intention of doing so.
• And believe me, chivalry is not dead women do appreciate it, just don’t overdo it boys.

In this world of women’s independence, many are taking it upon themselves to ask the man out. And why not?! It shows confidence and is a great turn-on for many men. Keep in mind though, confidence is sexy, arrogance is a turn off.

Different people will have different answer when you ask them their opinion on whether a kiss is appropriate on a first date. Maybe you want to save it for another date and just snuggle or hold hands first, all depending on the chemistry between you and whether or not it feels right. And if it does, then go for it.

Whereas, if the date isn’t going well, feel free to end the date early with everyone’s favorite backup “emergency” phone call from a friend. Chances are if you’re not having a good time, neither is your date!

Hopefully, this has widened your scope on the world of “first dates”. The whole point of a first date is to figure out if you want to get to know the person better. Remember, when it comes to dating and tips, just follow your instinct and no matter the outcome, have fun, enjoy yourself, and relax.

Everyone has a story to tell. In fact, most people delight in sharing the little things that happen to them daily. But, when it comes to undertaking something such as actually writing their own love story, most people balk at the idea. So imagine the surprise your partner will feel when you’ve taken the time to record the very significant part of your lives on paper. For ideas and tips, read on…
Where To Start
First compile all relevant information such as:Where and when you met.Where and when you first kissed.Where and when you proposed.Where and when you were married.The first time you knew you were in love.Where and when you shared these feelings with your partner.Where and when you had your first date.How you felt when you were on your first date.
Next, you’ll need to sort the information chronologically, from the first event.
It’s much easier to put the story together when you write about each event memory on an index card. For quick reference, highlight what the event/memory was, and the date it happened on the top. Then, in as much detail as memory allows, write about what happened, including all your senses such as touch, sight, smell, etc.
Once you have all the events memories written, and in order. Start writing your love story. It will be a fairly easy job if you’ve done the steps above.
Creative Ideas For Your Story
It’s one thing to sit down and write your love story, it’s quite another to take the time to put creative effort into it. Some ideas couples have done range from video taping the story with pictures, to creating their own professionally bound book with pictures. The possibilities are truly endless. To help you get started, here are a few ideas:Tell the story in a fairy-tale format. Starting with, “Once upon a time…”Create a puppet show with puppets to represent each of your characters. Save a copy of the play for your partner to read later.Write your story in diary format. Get a blank journal and create entries for each of the days that are relevant for your love story.Make a timeless treasure by writing your story in calligraphy on a heavy paper. Dip the pages in tea or burn the edges to give it an “old” look. Roll it up and tie a ribbon around it. You may want to give your partner a round tube so the letter doesn’t get ruined.Create a love story scavenger hunt. Write parts of your story with clues to find the next section. This is especially fun if the clues are hidden in places relevant to your love story!

28 Creative Love Letter Ideas
1. An Audio Tape Letter
Well my Fiancée sent me a audio tape, when I first saw the tape I thought it was broken, then I looked carefully and realized that it had a little tab, saying “Pull me” I pulled the tab and started to read what was written on the actually magnetic tape. My fiancée had actually written to me on the tape with a gold pen. This really touched my heart, and all I could think of was, what a wonderful, fun and LOVING person she is. I LOVE her to bits, I wish the same to all the romantics out there that share the same thoughts as me and my fiancée do.

When you’re in a long distance relationship, all you can rely on is letters, cards, emails, and telephone calls. But my boyfriend came up with a creative way to send me a letter. I got a package from him one day and I found a bottle with a letter inside! It was really cute and melted my heart! Who isn’t charmed by received a message in a bottle!

3. Dated…
This is not so much an idea, but something that I did for my love. I never believed in love at first sight until I met Micheal. It wasn’t quite love at first sight, but following our first date, there were feelings inside me that went far beyond expression. I didn’t want to say something that I may regret later, or more likely, something that would scare him away, but I had to let it out or I would simply explode. I sat down and wrote him a letter telling him of my feelings for him. I told him that I thought I was falling in love with him and that I thought he was absolutely wonderful. I put it in an envelope and mailed it to my own home, but with his name on the envelope. It was only a couple weeks later when he expressed that he felt the same feelings about me, and so I pulled the letter out of my drawer and handed it to him. Noticing the post-marked date, he read the letter with complete astonishment, and was totally charmed to know that I had fallen in love with him on our very first date.

4. Secret Admirer
I find that the most romantic gestures take a little time to do. Write a glorious infatuation letter, even better type it to conceal your handwriting. Try to make sure there are no tips to give you away, but put hints in it that would make her think it might be somebody else she knows. Use things you might know about her job, or places she might go, but things other people can also know. You might even scare her by telling her you followed her home. Sign it Your Secret Admirer, and send it to her by mail. Send flowers anonymously. Candy, Poetry, whatever you can think of. I set this up for a month, and when I let on who her secret admirer was, I never felt so gratified. It made her feel good that she thought she was still desirable, and when she found out it was me it made it all the better.

5. A letter hunt
My boyfriend told me that he would leave me a love note on my computer for when I got home. Well, he did just that and more. He sent me running around the house finding these little “clues” to where the real love letter was. After running up and down the stairs, finding clues in the cookie jar, ice cream container, under my pillow, in the bathroom, on the tv, and so on-he led me to the wine cellar in the basement where there sat a dozen roses with yet another “clue” as to where my love letter was. He had taped it to the back of the teddy bear he gave me for x-mas. It was the sweetest thing in the world even though I felt silly running through the house like I did.

6. A Single Rose Love Letter
Who says that flowers are only for girls? Guys love them too. I bought a beautiful rose for my boyfriend and plucked almost all of the petals off of it. Attached to each petal, I wrote one sentence on a small piece of paper (rolled up) telling him how much he means to me. I placed the petals face up so he couldn’t see the messages. When he opened the box, he saw the left over plucked rose, a small note explaining what’s behind each petal, and the petals underneath. I can honestly say that the reciever will cherish that gift forever. ) My boyfriend did, and right after he confessed his love for me. To this day, he still takes out the dried rose petals to read each note that explains how much I admire and love him.

7. Say it with their name
Send your partner roses according to how many letters there name has. For example: “manny”. You would buy 5 red roses and with each rose you would write a message starting with the first letter of their name. For example M: My love. You will never imagine how much I love you. Then for the second rose you would write: All that I ever have wanted is you and only you. then you would finish until you get to the letter Y. Before writing the note you must underline the first letter of every message. It will spell out his /her name. Then leave it where he/she will see it or just have it sent.

9. Love Notes
I love leaving little love notes around the house, but you want to make sure that you leave them where your love one will find them. Two ways this can be done.
(1) buy magnetic letters (bookstores sell) and place them on the refig., they are bound to go there sooner or later.
(2) use a soap bar and write your romantic message on the bathroom mirror. It won’t do damage to mirror and is easy to get off with a little water.

13. Love Letter Ideas
I like to send my boyfriend a letter (snail mail) every week. However, I want every letter to be as new and exciting as for him as the first, so I try to be creative. Some ideas:
- send a letter in a bottle (be extra careful with the packaging so it won’t break)
-write a letter on the back of a 100 piece jigsaw puzzle, then take it apart and let them put it together
-instead of sending a written letter, send a video cassette of yourself telling everything you want your special person to know.

14. Love Letter Ideas
I’ve found that one way to easily make an ordinary letter or package more special for somebody, is to decorate the package or envelope that you’re sending. When one of my loves sent me a teddy bear, she lined the inside of the box with gift wrapping paper, and I still cherish that box to this day. If you’ve got a letter you wanna decorate, and you’re not a good artist, then get some stickers. Too many of us forget about stickers after about grade school, but you can attach a cute or lovable sticker to anything at all, and whatever it touches will become special. A lot of restaurants and stores will have sticker dispensers that have those shiny, metallic stickers, they are superb. But don’t just get the envelope, hit the letter itself, and be sure to perfume those pages. Perfumed pages are incredibly sensual. A good way to accomplish this is to put perfume on your wrist before you start writing. As your wrist moves across the paper, it’ll be scented. Yet another thing you can do to make a letter more romantic is to write something on the flap, so the first thing your love sees when they open the envelope is an, “I love you” or something else. Before they even begin reading, they’ll already be smitten with love.

15. In A Different Language
Write your loved one a long, romantic, handwritten letter in a different language (friends come awfully handy if you don’t know that much). Give it to him/her with something you treasure (in my case, he gave me his lucky pen). They’ll have a memorable time getting the letter translated, and they’ll be inspired to do the same. *smile*

18. A Simple Letter of Love
A simple letter to show them how you feel usually makes them smile. My boyfriend and I are in high school and we were kind of fighting. Well, one day I went all day without seeing him at all. When school got out he was waiting for me by the doors and he handed me a letter and told me to open it. I opened it and all the way down the paper it said, “I love you.” Then at the very bottom it said, “Hope this makes up for the times when I didn’t say I love you or it didn’t seem like I did. I’ll always love you a million times more than what you think.” I looked up and he kissed me right in front of his friends and sister. It was so sweet! See what a simple letter can do to make things better?

22. A Ransom Note
Champagne, games, and roses are nice but can get very boring after a while. Instead, get creative and do something off the wall. My girlfriend has this stuffed animal that she adores and keeps on her bed. So I decided to kidnap the stuffed animal making a ransom note from cutting letters out of the news paper.In the letter it said ” give me a McDonalds cheeseburger and a six pack of beer or your stuffed pig is pork.” Then I took a picture of it on a plate with an apple by it and a fork and knife by the edge of the plate. I then placed the ransom letter and picture on her door. Of course when she saw it she new it was me but we had a fun time with it. She would make playful and sarcastic comments and of course I played back. Needless to say I gave the stuffed animal back making myself look like the hero and she rewarded me with a nite of love. However, your mate must have a good sense of hummor or you might spend the nite on the couch.

When she arrived I couldn’t believe how beautiful she was, more than I had remembered. She looked wonderful. Anyway we had a spectacular evening of dinner and dancing. After she left that evening I couldn’t stop thinking about her so I decided send her a letter the following week.

I thought you might like them back.” She absolutely loved it!!

27. Message In A Bottle
For our one year anniversary, I wanted to do something special for my boyfriend, but I wasn’t sure what to do. Then, while shopping at a craft store, I came upon a beautiful, blue bottle with a cork. Inspired by the recent movie, “Message in a Bottle”, I wrote my boyfriend a three page letter reviewing the past year, and expressing my everlasting love for him. Then I tied the letter with a ribbon, put it in the bottle, put the cork in tightly, and then dated it. When I give it to him, he won’t be allowed to open it…he will have to wait until the following year. A year later, as he opens the bottle from the previous year, he will be presented with another message in a bottle. Hopefully, we will be together long enough so that he will eventually have many, many bottles!!
