SMILEY TIPS

Look Happy and Sappy!

Look excited even before you unwrap the gift, but don’t let your smile drop down into a frown, whatever the gift may be. Prepare yourself and keep that smile up.

Just Shout Out!

The best way to hide disappointment is to just exclaim something. Your mate would expect you to like it, so whatever you say, they’re going to assume and hope that it’s with happiness. So a “Whooo, look at this! It is so cool/sweet!” is a perfect way to use the first ten seconds.

Just Name It Again!

Turn the gift all around and pretend like you’re looking at it in awe. And just read out the name or the brand written on the gift. Maybe you could also read out a few facts that are written on it, or just “admire” it. You can hug your sweetheart and thank them for being so sweet!

What Is That?

If you don’t know what the gift is, then just say something about it, and wait for your lover to excitedly describe more about it. “Wow, this is so awesome!” is a good line to use while you look around and try and figure what it does. Surely, your sweetie would go into details by then.

Compliment the Gift

You’ve said all that you’ve wanted to say to please your mate, but you still haven’t said anything about the gift itself. Say something like “it’s so sleek”, or “I have never had anything like this before…”

Don’t Break Hearts

It can be a real let-down, when you get a gift you don’t like, from a person who knows you best, on special days. But think about it, it wasn’t like your partner wanted to make sure that they’d give you something you detest. So don’t go breaking their heart.

Please Don’t Stop the Smiling

It’s hard to keep the grin up when you’re upset about your gift, but it’s a special day, right? Keep smiling and keep your voice pleasant. Just imagine how you would have behaved if you would have got a really nice gift, and try to behave that way.

Make a Wish List

If you’ve already experienced a bad gift scenario during your last special day, make a wish list so they know exactly what you want this year. If you don’t want to say it straight out, you could drop hints a few weeks or days before D-day, and hope they take your partner.

Try Me, I Tell Thee!

If you’ve unwrapped the gift and they want you to try it on or use it, especially when you’re supposed to go out, you could just smile giddily, smack your mate on the palm, and say something like “Are you mad? This is so special, I wouldn’t want to use it just now. I’ll use it after I’ve spent enough time with it!” Now that should work!

Don’t Bitch About It

You may be waiting to vent your frustrations out, and may end up calling your best pal and telling them all about your abysmal gift. But don’t. You know how words spread these days. You can always tell your mate yourself a few months later, but if your lover hears about it from someone else, they’d be really hurt!

Bon Appétit

Sushi anyone? Or sick on the floor? Not everyone prefers your… what was it… ‘your passion for interesting food’? So think twice before heading out to surprise your date-mate with chopsticks and Takoyaki, which is burnt octopus (balls?). Most romantic restaurants serve good food, and excellent cuisines. Our pick for mushy food is definitely Italian or Mediterranean, and a glass of divine wine.

Comfort

No, no, we’re not talking about plush interiors only. Are you comfortable with the place you’re going out on a date? There are a few restaurants that can have your sweat pores working full throttle, and a few places where every single person knows you by your first name. Opt for none of them. Pick a place both of you would like, one that makes your face brighten up the second you walk in.

Lighting

Everyone likes good lighting. Good lighting makes both of you look good. A dentist’s torchlight can be great in his clinic, but not at a restaurant. You don’t want to sit down under the scorching lights of a brightly lit room, waiting to pick flaws in each other. Choose a restaurant with mellow, soft lights that look great on your skin. You should be able to see your food well too.

Service

As soon as you walk into a restaurant, is there someone to greet you with a warm smile, and escort you to your table? Good. But not good enough. If you have to pick a date restaurant, the service has to be extremely warm, prompt and efficient. And don’t forget, waiters don’t just waltz near your table and stand idle in a good restaurant, not unless you’ve called them. And they don’t slide. Want to test them? Hold a cigarette in your lip for three seconds. If a waiter doesn’t zip up to you and light it by then, you’re in the wrong restaurant!

Ka Ching!

The little pincher, eh? Well, this one is all up to you, isn’t it? And it’s quite important too. Most restaurants that excel in all the finer details come with a price, so it’s all about how deep your pockets are. But not to worry, there are several restaurants that can qualify for the perfect romantic restaurant, and yet, not pinch you too hard. Take a look around the corner, you might just find it.

Loud!

Have you used signboards to communicate on a date? Or was there a mass murdering death metal Manson look-alike band throwing people around? Pick a restaurant that has soft music, even if not mush. When you talk let the soft textures accentuate your conversations, instead of blotting it. Good, soft music will always accentuate the romance in the air!

Ambience

Everyone likes to dine in a great restaurant. And fairytales wouldn’t be called fairytales if not for the props and the romantic mist. So you know the drill. Take your date out to a restaurant that boasts of a theme. A waterfall, a cove, or is it a beach? Take your pick, but there’s nothing like good ambience to make a date feel wonderful.

Privacy

If you want to have a great time with your date, you need your privacy. Walls and equisite curtains are mush adders, but that’s not it. Privacy also includes the chef, managers, and other diners not butting in or craning necks at you all the time. Don’t go looking for private cabins, but do pick a restaurant where privacy is spelt out in bold.

Your labels

Jimmy Choo shoes? And… wait a minute, is that a Balenciaga handbag? Nice. But don’t bother clinging to it when you’re out with him. He’s never going to know about it, And that could be the first thing he’d throw out of the couch when he wants to get frisky in his place! So unless you want half your mind on your jimmy choo’s and his pet dog, and the other half on him, don’t bother going haute couture on him.

The importance of gifts or gift wraps

Men do think about giving women gift, but they don’t really put in an effort to pick the perfect wrapper. Men think it’s a total waste of time because it’s going to come off anyways. As long as the present is great, it’s all cool for them. (But then why do they care about how hot our dress looks)

Your new haircut

So you took yourself out, snazzed and mussed your hair up perfectly to get yourself that clean ‘got up from bed’ ruffle, at one of the biggie salons wher cocoa tastes like it was straight from the Aztecs. Sweet! But if you’re going to primp yourself up that good, dont’t hate your date if he’s not going to compliment it. Heck, don’t feel worse if he doesn’t even realise that you’ve got a new cut.

Your Hidden flaws

Can you see it? Your jeans are feeling a wee bit extra tight today? you’re sure? Hmm… and we’re guessing you checked that with your crystal designer vernier callipers? Lady, your man doesn’t know if you’ve got a new hairdo, how could he possibly know about that buttered cookie you had with breakfast?

The effort you’ve taken to look nice

It may have taken you three houres to look the way you looked on your date. The clean shave, the scented waters, the perfect curls, and the minutes, and another five in front of the mirror. He just wouldn’t be able to know how much you’ve worked on yourself to look that good for him. So don’t bother about it. But when he says “you look beautiful”, he really means it! Awwww!

What Guys Always Notice!

Your assets

Is it your first date? It doesn’t matter though. A guy would have grazed your rack or your super-sexy back at least a few times when you’re not looking every guy you’re dating would check you out at some point of time on the date.

Skin

How much skin are you flashing? All guys would definitely notice this. But don’t be too certain that the equation of ‘more skin equals more attention’ always works. Some guys would break into an uncomfortable sweat if you do a ‘Basic Instinct’!

Your aura

Are you in control of the situation? Can you handle it if you’re halfway through a date, and both of you bump into a close friend of his? A guy loves it when she can laugh back at his friend and show that she’s ah.. a ‘woman of substance’. He want all his pals to know that you are the hottest thing around, and he’d definitely fall promptly in love if he sees your positive aura, whatever may be the situation.

Your cute habits

Do you have cute way of smiling, or tucking your hair behind your ear? Or is it something else? Guys dig that! And if there’s one thing that a guy takes back as a memory from the date, it would be this one.

Your smell

He may not know too many of your labels, but his nose can always recognise a good fragrance. A woman’s fragrance is intoxicating, and a man could go giddy while whispering near your ears.

Cleanliness

You definitely need to be clean. Women like guys who can groom themselves. Even if you sport a stubble, it should look like every strand of hair exists to accentuate your face. Clean hands, crisp clothes, and a fresh face. And no bad breath or body odour. No girl would ever like that! Maybe a few kinky ones, but definitely not on a date. In a restaurant.

Ogling other women

You may have done everything right, but this one wrong move can be a killer! There’s nothing more insulting for a woman than her date craning his neck to see other women now and then when you’re out on a date. Remember, all eyes on the woman. You can ogle at all the beautiful women when you’re with the guys. On a date, just focus on her, if you do want to impress.

Attire

Brands are one thing, but women definitely notice the way you dress. A Gucci shirt looks good, but untucked and crumpled on a formal date? Don’t think so dress for the occasion. Be pleasing to her eyes, and don’t ever go overboard. A clean shirt or a suit is the best thing to wear when you’re out at a great restaurant in the middle of paradise. And yeah, do take her to a great place.

Your conversational skills

Girls want a guy who knows how to keep his woman happy. So are you a smooth talker? Do you stutter and splutter and run out of things to say, half way through the dinner and resort to “so you say something… no, no, you say… to cover the fact that you have nothing to talk about? That’s not good. A woman wants to be with someone who knows to talk, and talk well. Yup, back when you were in tenth grade, backstreet boys were hot stuff! Now, it’s Hitch or a Simon Cowell.

What you can do

How far can you go for your date? What can you do to pamper her? Flowers and sparkling wine are great starters. But can you call back your waiter and ask him for more flowers on your table? Or perhaps, a white candle? Anything else? A woman wants to test how far a man would be willing to go for her. Of course, subconsciously. So pamper her. She can’t make up her mind about which dessert to pick, order three of them. Try it. It definitely works. Tell her to take a bit off all of them. She can have what she wants, and the waiter can take back the rest. If you have to be her king, treat her like the queen she deserves to be.

Labels!

Girls love labels. It’s a sign anyways, isn’t it? If you can pamper yourself, you definitely can pamper her. Go figure about big brands. But the biggest names don’t come cheap. Senor D’Orsi charges over 3 million a suit and still makes just fifty suits a year, but that’s never going to hurt. May be just your wallet. A wee bit, you big, rich boy!

What Girls Never Notice!

Your thoughts

No woman is mind reader. Whew! Thank god for that. Or you may not last a few minutes into the date, would you? You little perv!

Your package!

That sock in boxers on the beach didn’t help you, why would something dwelling deep inside your pants make a difference on a restaurant? Unless you’re competing with giant gonzales on a prick level. She may notice your physique but your package is a far fetched thought.

The real you!

Women do know that you’re being all that, and extra sweet just to impress them. So do be nice and courteous. You may be nervous, but put it behind your back. And unless you bring out the real you, the girls would never really know who you are! And she may not actually go out with you again.

Your good looks!

You may be a real good looker, but most women say that they would prefer personality over looks any day. The ugly good natured men can thank god now. So you may be really dashing, but unless you can be a great date, your good looks would be forgotten in no time, even if was noticed in the first place.
