20 Rules Of The Dating Game
Haha. I got this from the latest issue of Duet. If you don't know what magazine it is, then... Lucky you! LOL. Means you don't need a magazine like that. Anyways, all things tongue-in-cheek have grains of truth in them, so laugh along with this post, but think about what the rules really mean for both guys and girls...
10 Rules For Him
1) Call us old-fashioned, but if this is your first date, it is not acceptable to go Dutch. Be a man and pay for the meal!
2) Not enough men today stand up when their date leaves or approaches the table. If it helps, pretend she's your camp commander. (Ermz, I don't even stand up for my camp commander!)
3) If you drive, always take her home, even if she lives on the other side of the island. And if you don't, drop her off in your cab.
4) Accept the fact that she will want to know what you're thinking by the fourth date.
5) Also accept the fact that, in all probability, her parents will be asking you about marriage by the fifth date.
6) Never antagonise or make enemies of any of her girlfriends. You're just asking for trouble.
7) Just because she's talking to another guy at a party is no reason for your inner Hulk to emerge. Get over it. You're her boyfriend, not her cell-keeper.
8) As a man, you are not equipped to have any negative opinion about her dress, makeup or hair. You love, love, love everything. Especially if you think it's dog-ugly.
9) Girls love flowers...
10) ... and a guy who says "You're so beautiful!" in front of their other girlfriends.
10 Rules For Her
1) Yes, you're dating, but he won't necessarily want to spend 24 hours a day with you. Guys like to go out with other friends that won't always include you. Let it be. (hear that girls?)
2) Men don't like to talk. Especially about their emotions. That's what your girlfriends are for, so get over it.
3) Just because he's speaking to another girl at a party is no reason to let your inner she-demon emerge. Just take a picture on your camera-phone and use it as ammunition for your next fight. (hey that's unfair! We didn't get advice like this for our Rule 7!)
4) If he dresses really well, worries about Jennifer Aniston's emotional well-being, knows all about skin care and goes to the gym every day, you are entitled to be a little suspicious.
5) If every other sentence he utters starts with "My mother...", then consider other boyfriends.
6) Just because he doesn't call you every two hours to say "I love you" is not a sign that he doesn't.
7) Don't make him carry your handbag in public. Handbags are for ladies.
8) It's not acceptable to expect him to pay for everything. Even if he wants to.
9) Guys love to watch soccer... (ermz, I prefer pool and tennis)
10) ... and a girlfriend who coos, "You're my hero!" in front of their male friends.
