Tales from A Hook, Line and Sinker

If you have ever been fishing or watched fishing on television, then you are familiar with this terminology. If you don't know you may want to ask someone that knows, its not very difficult to understand. Fishing is actually considered a sport where fisherman get paid for catching certain types of fish or the largest fish. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, but its all part of the game. We all play games because its a part of life and if you've just figured this out you are already losing!

Women say men play too many games, but needless to say so do they. Women believe that 90% of the men who approach them are just trying to run game. It hurts me to say this fellas, but I must admit they are absolutely right. Let's examine this further as I breakdown the HOOK, LINE & SINKER.

A mans' first line of attack towards a woman of interest is the(HOOK),stare, aka the bait. If we stare at a woman and get her to stare back for anything longer than 3 seconds we got you. This is a part of the body language signal we send to get your attention in hopes that you bite. Women are fully aware of this strategy and show their disinterest by not staring back. When women stare back its an open invite hoping we come over and introduce ourselves. This is where the women play the game just on the receiving end. Fellas if you out with your woman, date or wife and she entertains the stare from a man, leave her immediately.The same rule of thumb applies to us men, if its more than a glance ladies, let him go. Remember the stare back tells us its potential and if she/he wasn't with you currently she/he would holler. This shows no respect for your partner, no self-control and ultimately you may be a  hoe. Women do not like to be perceived as thirsty, loose or desperate, so normally they won't approach a man because its considered unladylike. However, the more aggressive woman will initiate the stare and that's her way of  sending subtle hints and clues.

Now that you have her attention its time for phase 2 the conversation.(LINE) At this point for us men its all about being cool, charming and not saying nothing stupid. Fellas you do not get this far to drop the ball so stay confident and  focused. Always act like you been in this position before even if you haven't. You can have all the looks in the world but without the mouthpiece it means nothing. Now I'm sorry I cannot give you guys the words or specific things to say because the game is to be sold not told. I will tell you this, no matter what you say the mission is to get the number and getting the number is half the battle. (SINKER)Now that you see she is interested your job isn't complete until you follow up with the phone call to meet up. This is where you began to make the determination if you want to just play with your fish or do you want to take your fish home to be cleaned and seasoned. (I like my fish fillet)

Helpful Tips When Going On A First Date

The dating game has changed tremendously over the years. People can now find their supposedly perfect match online through the numerous dating sites. (SCARY) I personally like the old fashion way of meeting a person face to face without any prerequisites of a particular profile. Here are my helpful tips to consider when going on a first date:


1. Do not pick your date up from their home and do not let your date pick you up. You may advise your date of the time, place to meet and the dress attire for the occasion. This allows you to see if your date has transportation and if the date is a disaster you don't have to deal with the awkwardness of driving him/her home. In addition, you don't know if this person is psycho or deranged, so why tell this person where you live. Also, never tell a person where you work. You can tell he/she what you do for a living but never give out the exact location.



2. Think outside the box when it comes to making plans for you and your date. Don't settle for the typical date of a dinner and a movie. Its the safest move true, but dare to be different, creative, spontaneous and adventurous. Keep in mind a date doesn't always have to be at night. Have a breakfast date over a bagel and cappuccino and then take a nice walk in the park. You can do a brunch with mimosas (women love these and fellas their actually pretty good.)You can go miniature golfing or visit an art museum where you can still talk. You can have a picnic with fruit, chips, dip and sandwiches or whatever you like, but be sure to have a backup in case of inclement weather. All of these ideas are fairly inexpensive for a first date. I don't understand why men try to overly impress by spending alot of money on someone you just met and may not ever see again. That's utterly ridiculous!

3. The purpose of the date is to see if you have things in common. Check to see if your personalities click and make sure you ask the necessary questions: What do you do for a living, what do you like to do for fun, what are your interests and hobbies, are you married, gay, how many kids do you have(the one on the way counts), what are your intentions to have fun or looking for a serious commitment. Please feel free to add to this list, but be careful not to overdue it because you leave no room for conversation on the next date if all goes well.

4. Remember its the first date so each person will be bringing their best representative. This is who he/she wants you to think they really are so don't get too excited. No one wants you to think they are abusive, stalker, possessive or flat out crazy.



GOOD LUCK!!
