You should always try to date other people so that you never get hung up on one man at any time. At the end of the first date, you can accept a light peck on the cheek or lips even though you're dying to do more. He should only see the lobby of your apartment building. This 1s both for safety and The Rules. By not letting him into your apartment or agreeing to go to his, you drastically reduce your chances of any sort of problem occurring. If you meet someone at a bar or party, the same rule applies.
On the second date use your judgment. If you feel comfortable with this man, he can pick you up at your apartment and you can invite him up for a drink at the end of the night. Anyone can get a onenight stand. Not too much feeling, investment, or heart. You're probably wondering how long you can keep up this act, right?
On the fourth date, you can show more of yourself. Exhibit warmth, charm, and heart. Ifhis dog died or his baseball team lost, express sympathy. Look into his eyes, be attentive and a good listener so that he knows you are a caring human being—a person who would make a supportive wife. Those are subjects for fra to bring up. You get the idea! Donttell him what your astrologist, nutritionist, personal trainer, shrink, or yoga instructor think about your relationship with him.
He'll think you're a loser or a tramp. Its none of your business. Try to let 47 shine. Just for the first few months Eventually you will become more of yourself.
It's the first impressions from the first few months of dating that men remember forever. If you find it hard to keep up this act, then end the date early or see less of him. Letting it all hang out too soon is counterproductive to your goals.
But net sounselfish that you feel you have to answer any question you regard as too personal or none of his business just yet. Some men like to pry secrets cut of women.
Women sometimes reveal more than they really care to, hoping that their revelations will draw a man closer to them—but afterwards they feel naked, as well as tricked and cheated. Be careful how you answer his questions. If he asks you how long you are planning to live in your apartment, say you're renewing your lease. But the foldout couch she'd been sleeping on was broken. Rather than consulting Bruce on the bed purchase— asking him what kind of bed he liked and what size he hiked, as if to suggest that this might be the bed they would be sharing one day—she bought the single bed as if shehad no intention of getting married soon.
I have such a busy day tomorrow. But it must be done because you must leave him wanting more of you, not less. It is our experience that men will want to see you a lot, sometimes every day in the beginning, and then grow very bored very quickly. So abide by Te Rules and hell stay smitten. Not ending the date first is bad enough.
What's worse, however, is prolonging the date once it should have been over. Of course, Randy should have ended the date right after the movie, but she thought she could excite Bob with her great disco dancing.
Other women try to prolong a first or second date, for example, by inviting the man up to her apartment for a drink or coffee so that he'll fall in love with her decorating, or her homebrewed decaf. First of all, it should be the man trying to prolong the date, not you.
Instead of worrying about making the date interesting or longer, just make sure you end it first. Ideally, jewelry, but any romantic gift will do. It is not how expensive the item 1s, but the fype of gift it is. A typewriter can cost more than an inexpensive pair of earrings, and a computer, one would think, connotes love, being such a costly item, but such presents come from the head, not the heart, and are not good signs of love at all.
No one knows this rule better than Susan, who received a Sergio Tacchini sweat suit for Valentines Day from Brian, her boyfriend of three months.
When we told her the romance was over, she argued that the suit costs almost two hundred dollars and is very cool at the better country clubs. But we knew that Susan would have been better off with candy or flowers. When men are in lave, they give love objects even if they are on a tight budget. Flowers, jewelry, poetry, and weekend trips to the country are the kinds of gifts given by men in love.
Sure enough, Brian dropped Susan a few months later. Remember, gift giving has nothing to do with money. He then spent four hours wniting a beautiful love poem to her in it. A Rwes present if there ever was one! As most women know, the time a man spends on anything is virtually priceless. Just read what's written! Furthermore, while a romantic gift is a must for birthdays, Valentine's Day, and anniversaries, a man who is crazy about you will give you all kinds of things all the time.
For example, when Patty expressed an interest in biking, her boyfriend Mike bought her a fancy helmet. When Lori received roses from Kevin on their third date she was absolutely ecstatic. If he sees you digging in your bag for a pen, he lends you his and then tells you to keep it. Basically, he notices everything about you, except anything bad.
When a man is notin love with you, he notices nothing or only the bad. Again, this is not about being gold diggers or princesses wanting to be doted on all the time.
They also fall owt of love faster. They may want to see you two or three times a week, some even every day, in the beginning. If you give in and see them every time, eventually they get restless and irritable, and then stop calling.
I just have a lot going on right now. We know how painful this can be. But, girls, you must put your foot down! Men like sports and games—football, tennis, blackjack, and pokerbecause they love a challenge. So be a challenge! Remember, this Ra is not forever. After seeing him once a week for the first month, you can see him twice or three times a week during the second month, and three to four times a week in the third month.
But never more than four or five times a week unless you're engaged. Men must be conditioned to feel that if they want to see you seven days a week they have to marry you. I already have plans. A man who is in love with you and hopes to marry you won't be put off by the onceto-twicea-week dating structure you set up in the beginning.
We find that only men who are just with you for fun or sex are likely to get angry or impatient. It might all be true and he may call again and ask you out Butit might bea ploy to get you into bed on the first or second date. If you fall for his lines and see him every night that week—after all, you think he 1s serious about you—he might take you out a couple of times and have sex with you. A very painful thing. If you follow The Ruies and slow down the process, forcing him to get to know you and ready fall in love, this will not happen.
So do yourself a faver and do The Rules. Let him kiss you on the first date, but nothing more. Keeping it to a kiss will force him not to think of you as just a physical object. If a Rwes relationship is to develop, he must fall in love with your soul, your whole being, nat just your body. So the less you do physically, the better. Some men might make you feel that you're being old- fashioned or prudish.
Some might make fun of you or even get angry. If he really cares about you, he will respect your boundaries. In addition, if you are following Rul 9 How to Act on Dates L 2, and 3 , things should not get out of hand. As we said earlier, you should be talking about politics, real estate, good movies, not marriage, kids, love, former boyfriends and girlfriends, and sexual positions. Besides, if you really like him, just kissing can be a lot of fun!
The Rude depends on your age and personal feelings. If he loves you, he'll respect whatever decision you make. Anger indicates interest, and you might be surprised, for he will probably call you again! But what if you like sex a lot toa, and denying yourself is just as hard as denying him?
Does that mean you can sleep with him on the first or second date? Unfortunately, the answer is still no. You will just have to exercise a bit of self-restraint and character building here and trust that if you hold off for a few weeks or months, you won't be sorry.
Better that he be angry and strategizing ways of seducing you on the next date than moving onto the next girl. Making him wait will only increase his desire and create more passion when you finally have sex whenever you're ready.
We know it can be excruciating to put sex off with someone you're attracted to, but you must think long term here. If you play your cards right, you can have sex with him every night for the rest of your life when you're married!
Every woman wants the man she just slept with to call her, that is, if she really likes him—and hopefully she likes the man she's sleeping with. We wait until we're sure before having sex. Let's say that now, hopefully, you've held off for a while and are ready to have sex with him. What Rus should you follow in bed? First and foremost, stay emotionally cool no matter how hot the sex gets. The fact is, most women turn men off not only because they sleep with them too soon, but because they tall too much about it in bed.
They try to exploit the physical closeness of sex to gain emotional closeness, security, and assurances about the future.
The theories of Masters and Johnson who are now divorced are not to be ignored, but please wait a good amount of time before you begin holding lengthy seminars about your needs during sex or after sex. Being with you in bed should not be difficult or demanding. He should be excited about just sleeping with you. Remember, these are your needs you are concerned about filling, and The Rates are a selfless way of living and handling a relationship.
Men merely want to lie down next to someone they care about when they are feeling strong emotions. Be casual and unmoved about the fact that the date is over. With that attitude, chances are he will be the one hanging on.
If you do, he'll probably run to the nearest coffee shop for breakfast. Instead, go quietly about your business—brush your hair and your teeth, do some sit-ups and stretches, brew coffee-and chances are he'll start massaging your shoulders and suggesting morning sex or a great brunch place. Otherwise, you're being a tease. On the other hand, what if youre more into sex than he is? Last but not least, whenever you do have sex, always use a condom.
If he loves you, it won't matter how pretty the girls at the gym are. Gur friend Marcy was seeing Joe for a couple of months when he suddenly started to make weekend plans with his friends. Conditioned by her therapist to be honest and up front about her feelings, Marcy told Joe that she felt abandoned.
She was ecstatic. But after a month of togetherness, he suddenly stopped calling. She never heard from him again. Men do what they want to do.
Read the tea leaves and move on to the next man if necessary! He may simply be shy about the whole thing. No one can make him marry us. You will end up emasculating him and he will come to see you as a domineering shrew. He wants someone who makes him feel good or better, not inadequate So leave him alone. When he asks you what to wear or how to play tennis, you can help him.
The man must take the lead or you fall over your feet. Remember, let him take the lead. He declares love first, just as he picks most of the movies, the restaurants, and the concerts the two of you go to. He might sometimes ask you for your preference, in which case you can tell him.
Remember, mothers can get quite anxious about your dating life. He should introduce you to his friends before you introduce him to yours. You should double with his married or dating friends before you double with yours.
Sheila has told me sa much about you. After he proposes, he will eventually meet all your friends and family. Until then, just follow his lead! There are a couple of things you wish were different. What do you do? You should either accept certain flaws or find someone else. Of course, it all depends on what it is about him that bothers you. Ifheis fanatically neat, chronically tardy, hates Chinese food your favorite and disco dancing you love it , or he won't part with his childhood baseball card collection, but he loves you to death, consider yourself lucky.
These are annoying but relatively harmless vices, which we classify under category A. Just be ready at 9 P. When it comes to B-type behavior, such as infidelity and lack of consideration, seriously think about ending the relationship. What you see is what you get. If a man cheated on you during your courtship, he may do so during your marriage. He might be on best behavior for a while after you catch him the first time. Old habits die hard. You must decide if you can live with him.
Whether or not he ever cheats on you again, realize that the thought will always cross your mind. Is that how you want to live? If it is, Ruxles women make up their minds and live with it. OF course, a playboy type who falls in love wth you because you did The Raks will automatically mend his ways.
Therefore, his object in life is to win you over. He has very little interest in other women because he has no time for them! Thoughts of how to conquer you consume most of his waking hours. You have become the biggest challenge in his life Do The Rwles and even the biggest playboy can be all yours! Whether you can live with him depends on how important money, career, status, and a big house are to you. In all such cases, you must sit quietly with yourself and ask for guidance to do the nght thing.
Consulting others helps, but remember you have to live with these things yourself. Ask yourself if you can really marry an ex- womanizer or a recovering alcoholic. Can you really live with the possibility that he may cheat or drink again? If the answer 1s yes, great. But if you are too troubled by his past or current behavior, you might have to do The Rais thing and walk away.
Taking him to couples therapy in the hopes of changing him can take forever, rarely works, and some things just cannot be changed. Remember, there are lots of men out there! There are many ways to kill a relationship. Getting heavy and examining everything is certainly one of them.
Conditioned by therapy and self help books to tell all, wornen tend to overdo it on first dates, bringing up past relationships, their hurts and fears, their alcohol or drug preblem—all in an attempt to bond with this new man. This 1s deadly and boring. Be intelligent but light, interesting yet mysterious. See also Ruk 9: How to Act on Dates i, 2 and 3.
Remember, the person who talks the most has the most to lose. By the end of the first date, he should not know your dating history. Wait at least a couple of months. Too many women tell intimate details of their lives far too secon. No man wants tobe the recipient of a therapy session upon first meeting you. No man wants to hear how wrong or messed up your life has been before he realty loves you.
Remember Rale 9-that the first three dates are about being light and charming, like a summer breeze. Men must always remember you as mysterious on the first three dates. Their initial impression tends to go a long way.
IF and when things get serious, you can casually tell him about your difficult childhood and some of your fears. Even then, tell him in an easy, short, simple way. He takes you out for a drink on your first date and to dinner on the second. He notices you only ordered club soda both times. He is about to order a bottle of wine and wants to know if you'll join him. It really made me sick. I feel better. If he loves you, he will not make you feel bad.
If he loves you, he will kiss and caress you. Ask for sympathy and you never get it. Now you might feel that we are asking you to act casually about your problems, but the fact is, you are bad with money and he will soon see that. But does he really have to know about the creditors and your canceled credit cards? No, all he has to know is that money 1s not your strong suit. We are not suggesting that you hide or lie about bad things in your life, just that you not burden him with all the gory details too soon.
If you jee? Remember, you area creature unlike any other! Irs when and how you tell him your darkest secrets, not the secrets themselves, that matter. By the time you are engaged, he should know al that really matters about you and your family and your past. The Rules are truthful and spiritual in nature. That's not the time to tell him that you were previously marred or never finished college. Ifs not fair to him and not good for a Rakes marrage.
Fifty years ago it was easier ta be mysterious with men. Women lived at home and their mothers answered the phone and never told the men who else called their daughters. Today, men pick up women at their apartments, see their lingerie in the bathroom, their romance novels in the living room, and hear thar phone messages.
Let him wonder who called you besides him! Before he comes to your apartment, tuck this book away in your top drawer and make sure any selfhelp books are out of sight. Have interesting or popular novels or nonfiction books in full view. Just say you are busy. His wife just had a baby.
It keeps the intrigue going. Always remember that in time you will be able to tell him just about anything! Take our advice. It's a law of the universe. But many women shy away from ads because they feel it smacks of desperation. We know lots of women who've placed and answered ads without seeming desperate or tao interested. That's because they wrote or responded to ads in a Ruds way.
How to Write a Personal Ad Ads can be expensive, so make yours no more than four or five lines, Ads that nin on and on area waste of money and seem desperate. Why else would anyone spend six hundred dollars for one ad? Most people skim or ignore long ads and rarely respond to them. It should contain facts only about height, hair color, religion, sex, and profession. Many ads are a turnoff because they look for sympathy. The wniters hope to hook you in by telling you that they are human and damaged.
Simply leave out your weight entirely and accentuate your blue eyes and long blond hair. We know one woman who said only men with Porsches need apply. You might think she had a lot of nerve, or that men might be turned off by such an ad because the woman comes across as a gold digger. The fact is that this woman received dozens of letters with photos of men in front of their Porsches and she married one of them. Another woman wanted only the kind of man who would write poetry.
Dozens of men sent her poems. Men like to be challenged in an ad and like impressing women, so let them. When you receive responses, sort them out into yes, no, and maybe piles. Men are often lazy about such things. If you like thar note and the scund of their voice on the phone, agree to a drink date. Write a flirtatious note with the essential facts.
Notes that talk about marriage, kids, and commitment make most men run the other way even when they want it. All of that is sophomoric. It also shouts desperation. The best way to respond is to dash off a cute note in five minutes while watching the 11 o'clock news. Less is more. Remember, he has a lot of other letters to read. Hope to hear frem you soon. The photo 1s actually the most important part of the package.
Most men decide to call you based on your photo, not your note. Men typically receive hundreds of responses from women. Some take weeks and months to call. When you do get a call, try to make the date for only a quick drink.
You have no idea what he looks like and he may have been exaggerating about haw handsome hes. But if you do lilee him and the sound of his voice, agree to meet at a restaurant near your apartment.
Nesey give him your address or meet him at your apartment, and never let him pick you up in his car to drive to a restaurant. Hang up when he or his answering machine answers. Give your mother or a friend the number before the date so someone can track you down if anything happens.
Is that a question you're grappling with now? Contrary to popular belief, living together 1s not a trial period for him to see how he feels about you. If he really loves you, hell beg you ta come back. Women who think that commitment will come after they shack up often learn the hard way that this 1s not the case. Of course, by the time the lesson 1s learned, their self-esteem is shattered and theyre two or three or four years older. Does this scenario sound familiar?
After dating Mitch for a year and a half, Wendy wanted a ring. Nothing changed. If you operate under the delusion that living together without a real commitment will somehow bring you closer together, you should know that many women tell us that their husbands proposed after they moved away from, not toward, the relationship.
Then, thar husbands proposed. But be a ftne distant and difficult. Women who tell us that they moved in with a man accidentally, as a result of spending long weekends with him, obviously broke a few rules along the way. You stay over a lot and one thing leads to another.
First you get a drawer, then a shelf and then a closet of your own. Before you or he realize it, youre having your mail delivered to his apartment and your friends are leaving messages on his tape machine. If you are doing Fhe Ruies, you never need a closet full of clothes and accessories at his place. He should be begging you to leave things in his apartment and going out of his way to make shelf space. This invasion of space should not come from you.
You are independent, you are not a crasher, you are always ending the evening or the morning first. Besides, the less he sees of some of your less glamorous habits, like the way you floss your teeth or the sound you make when you slurp your coffee, the better. Is there any reason to live with a man if you haven't set a wedding date? Still, proceed with caution. Living with him may prevent you from dating others and meeting someone you're crazy about, so how smart is it?
So why do so many women do it? All these women suffer from low selfesteem, or why would they settle for so little? When you date a married man, you basically spend your life waiting for him to get separated. You are always second. In the beginning, affairs are full of promise and great sex. By the end, you are always crying on the shoulders of girlfriends and wishing his wife would die. You will not get much sympathy from us. Dating married men is dishonest and totally contrary to The Rates.
We do not take what is not ours. If you have recently met a married man that you are mad about, then you must practice selfrestraint. If he is everything you ever wanted in a husband, be friends with him and hope he gets divorced. Until then, you must say to yourself that a single man like him e usts somewhere out there for you. Then you must get busy, go to a singles dance, answer a personal ad or put one in a magazine, ask your friends to fix you up with someone.
Take action. Join a gym, a church, or synagogue, or do volunteer work at a hospital. Never sit around dreaming about him or you might end up acting on your thoughts. Dating a married man is easy because you can fantasize about his future availability.
Even if he leaves his wife, how do you know he'll actually marry you? Your life is never on the edge because of a man.
You are not desperately waiting in the wings for his situation to change. You are not someone who waits and hopes while he takes his wife and kids to Disney World. You have a life of your own. Lest you think we are being naive, we know that extramarital affairs happen all the time and that married men do at times divorce their wives and marry the girl they've been seeing on the side. We know onesuch woman who waited five years for a man to break up with his wife. They are now very happily married.
She was very lucky. Are you willing to take that chance? In addition, be especially careful when dating not to go on about all the pain from your first marriage or talk too much about your children. Let him take your phone number, then wait until he calls for you to gently weave it into the conversation.
Please do not take this advice the wrong way. We are not telling you to be ashamed of your past or your children. Just wait a while before involving him. Your child should not have to meet every Tom, Dick, and Harry you date, only the serious contenders. Let the man be the one to bring up meeting your children.
Make him curious about seeing them. Meeting your children should be an honor, not a routine occurrence. Just the way you hold back on other things in the beginning of your relationship, this too should take time.
Make him work fagain? So go to PTA meetings with a smile on your face and wearing a nice outfit. Socialize wherever you go with your child. You never know. Unfortunately, the same way one gets good at playing the piano or tennis or anything else.
Practice, practice, and more practice! Once you're truly convinced you need The Rules, you should read this book over and over again until you've practically memorized it, then practice the principles as much as possible.
We broke rules, got hurt, and then eventually got serious and did The Rules as they are written. Don't be discouraged. Just keep practicing! Try The Rules on all men at all times. Ellen is.

Aruba-Tate, as she bent down and stuck six thumbtacks into the bottom of each shoe. Harlan and Franny clapped. Leo and Juanito moved a little closer. Bean bowed and stepped onto the top of the tub.
She tapped one foot. Then the other. Good noise. She tappety-tapped. The noise was nice and loud. The noise was astounding. Leo and Juanito came back. She and Harlan put thumbtacks in their shoes and danced together on the tub, making a truly incredible amount of noise. Dogs barked. Passing cars slowed. All the other camps stopped to watch. Pretty soon, Bean, Franny, Harlan, Leo, and Juanito were crammed onto the tub, dancing their hearts out. Ivy was trying to explain to their friend Sophie W.
A counselor was trying to get Ella to come back to Puppet Fun! No one could hear a thing. Late in the afternoon, Bean lay in the grass in front of the tent.
She was happy. Dance had been great. Leo and Juanito knew all about strength training. You had to start easy. Camp Flaming Arrow had started with a grape. Picking up a grape is easy. After the grape, the campers went on to heavier things, like rocks and Harlan.
Ella, who had tunneled out under the picnic table of Puppet Fun! Sophie W. They did that until Harlan forgot to think about water and Ivy hurt her head. She was lying on the grass too.
Dino from Pancake Court came with Sophie W. He had already been to the zoo three times that week, and he was tired of it. He was hiding from his coach again. Today we will be studying first aid. Ivy had brought her face paint, and they used up almost all the red. Red was the blood. She had brought another old curtain, cut up. Those were the bandages. All the campers needed lots of bandages. He was a very good groaner. She gave Harlan a fake shot. He groaned. By the time Leo got away from soccer camp, they were all covered with fake blood and bandages.
He told them about a kind of first aid called the Heimlich Maneuver. When someone was choking, you pounded his stomach in just the right way, and whatever was choking him flew out of his mouth and landed acro ss the room. That was fun. Disgusting, but fun. They played Heimlich Maneuver for a long time, and then Dino had a great idea. Since they were already covered in fake blood, they could be zombies.
They zombied around Monkey Park with their arms stretched out in front of them. By mistake, they zombied right through Puppet Fun! Most of the Puppet Fun! She backed toward Camp Flaming Arrow, but three new zombies ran after her. She was reading the Girl Power 4-Ever paper.
What do you think it is?
