This is what men expect

l Don't talk much to a girl

l Don't talk much to a girl

She only wants to talk about relationships and girl stuff. So take her dancing. Learn enough to get by and look cool, though you won't need it much after you have her hooked.

lPay her way on the date, but expect to get back in kind

Buy her a nice meal, so that she knows what she owes you in exchange for the meal. In addition, if you buy her a fancy dinner at some ritzy place it's a good investment.

lDon't call her after the date

Make her wait a few days. Girls do this "stare at the phone thing". Don't give them what they want. Call her in a couple of days.

lAlways end phone calls first

Especially if she's read the Girls' Rules that tell her to do this; you won't have to worry about long phone calls. Girls can yak so long on the phone.

lDon't give her any warning about a date

Make sure she stays free all the time in case you call. Keep yourself free in case something comes up elsewhere. If you call and she's not available, act real hurt; make it seem like you will end the relationship if she does this a lot.

lTell her what she wants to hear

You like long walks on the beach. You love kids. You like to cook. You're looking to settle down in a country home with that one special girl. You love horses, chick movies, sushi and Meryl Streep. You support her goals. Tell her you're rich, famous, whatever. She'll figure out the more ridiculous ones eventually. Don't be scared to eventually talk to her about "the relationship". Girls go for this.

lTell her you love her

This is the big part of the Guys' Rules.

lNo casual sex

Definitely don't get too involved because she might ask to be monogamous or something. Make sure that you never let yourself get tied down.

l Tell her what to do

Hey, in the end they all want to be dominated. So make all the decisions and see how she goes for it.

lBe the bad boy

Girls love the "bad boy". They hope they can "reform" him. Be as bad as you like. Wear handcuffs and a motorcycle jacket, even if you drive a Hyundai. Remember, nice guys aren't appreciated. - templetons.com
