Funny Excuses to Decline Dates

admin — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 16:01:16 +0000

Whilst I’d love to tell you that girls can’t wait to be asked out and willingly oblige, the truth is, this isn’t the case. There are times, believe it or not, where we actually don’t want to. You might have 3 heads. You could have terrible B.O, or just spinach between your teeth. All this and yet somehow we always find ourselves saying yes, when what we actually mean is no.

Fear not girls, I’ve compiled a list of believable excuses that will get you out of this very situation. They took quite a while to think of. I’m here to look after you.

I’d love to hear your contributions in the comments, they make me very happy.

Keep fighting the good fight.

Emails never to send on a dating site

admin — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 13:24:17 +0000

So, after last week’s video… it appears that more and more of you are venturing into the land of online dating and I’ve had lots of emails asking for advice. I should point out that whilst I used to work for a dating company, I’m completely clueless and thus single.

However, experience alone tells me that there are certain things you should never send in a first email. Before you press send, you might want to check out these things to avoid:

dating site profile pictures you should always avoid

Mel — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 13:17:52 +0000

you’d think it would be common sense. how hard can it be to choose a picture to post to your profile on a dating site? not hard surely? then how come so many people seem to fudge it up so badly? this is my question! for those of you who are single and thinking about going on a dating site, you might want to listen to my advice. for those of you who aren’t single, you might want to watch and be smug that you’ve found your “one”. either way, enjoy.

so hopefully that’s got you off on the right footing, but i’m more than happy to help if you have any further questions. just call it my bit for the dating community

happy thursday and stay awesome!

Mel — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 13:44:47 +0000

you know what it’s like… the sun finally makes an appearance, the girls change into their summer dresses and the boys are attracted like bees to a honey pot. if you’re one of those bees, you might want to pay attention to the following video if you’re ever going to get close to the nectar

now that you’re nearly qualified in the art of seduction, ok take that back, not scaring girls away, go practice those techniques. just remember we’re girls… we like boys who don’t smell!
