    GREAT ideas! An idea is to have a Goodwill date... you both go to Goodwill and pick out an outfit for the other that only costs $10.00 and you each have to wear that outfit on the date... :-)

    I love your daughter’s enthusiastic response. If the conversation stalled, I would ask some questions to try to get to know my date better, - his opinions, ideas, dreams, and might relate some interesting stories about experiences friends have had. Sometimes it’s nice to just smile reassuringly, to encourage a comfortable pause in the conversation.

      who cares about the other people next to you. Focus on the man you are with. Also it's not good to only care about what the men are doing for a living because you sound like a gold digger.

    i usually go to the mall the first date and just start a vonversation about everything i see. for example if theres a rock band shirt ill be like " hey what time of music do you like"..? "have you heard this band?" then ill see a rugrats poster and he like "what 90s cartoons was your favorite?" and just take it from there. lol

    Great story about your daughter!!
    Thanks for this video, I'm a professional female having this struggle. I have a fast paced, serious and demanding job that keeps me in my masculine energy. I'm trying to let my feminine be the lead energy when not at work. I definitely dress the part, have gotten many compliments at work for years but once I am out and about it's lingering because I'm also a single parent of a teenager. You guessed it always in leadership always on, always thinking about the next move and making sure everything is taken care of. Any suggestions on how I break this cycle?
    Thanks Matt, you're the best!

    • @shannonk1351
      @shannonk1351 5 років тому +3

      feminine energy = receiving. let him be the giver. let him open doors for you, plan dates, do favors for you. he wants to feel successful in making you happy so in every interaction give him a specific way to win (e.g. 'i don't need you to solve this problem but i really do need to be heard & understood. would you help me with that?') with every little thing he does for you, then go a little overboard with appreciation ('thank you so much for listening, i feel so much better since you understand how i feel. you really helped me a lot!'). treat him like a superhero. takes practice but you can change to this feminine energy after you leave work.

    I 💖 your games... TOO many people are way to busy being grown ups , borring or serious and it REALLY kills or limits the posibilities to have fun , relax & enjoy each others time and if you like fun and the other don't ~ you find out fast & knows you're not a long term match any way 😇😉

    @elizagms 5 років тому +2

    Hey hello, I was impressed by the games. I don't like competing on the date, I love you be social and of course fun! I've always been successful with looking for things that my date didn't like and try and find other ways to look into the box and enjoy these in a personal way. Like one date didn't like to try different foods he didn't usually eat! I asked for:
    If he had a choice what would or wouldn't he try? He answered never sushi! So I asked what then in the Japanese government would he try? He said nothing!
    My challenge: finding out what...
    I asked some type of foods with no successes and thought... this is to look inside the box an other way----so I remember the chefs with the grill and tossing foods around! I suggested that we go without asking about pallets. His eyes lightened up and clearing his mouth smirked trying to say no, and yet I caught it and laughed out softly with a smile and tilting my head looked up towards his eyes and said calmly and assertively:
    For our next date You pick the Japanese restaurant and when we arrive I'll act like a dizzy dummy and ask all the questions for you. Any questions you have you ask me if? Then we can order 2 different meals and I'll ask for some samples! He loved the idea of looking in control of the ordeal and I would help without showing it!
    He agrees and the date was fun, funny and he got to enjoy Japanese foods, that opened up the door for other restaurants and home cooking different foods for each other.
    A other way was with church, with a long distance relationship when we would see each other periodically.
    My date had questions about how important the Biblical history, the facts confuses, how this applies to his life? He didn't want to get pulled or forced into religion.
    So being a Seven Day Adventist from birth. I asked for some stuff and helped him understand somethings and connected to him by asking him to open up and allowing me to answer what I can. He didn't happily and when he needed a authority to talk to him o asked him to look for a SDA church and visit without comment and he found one he liked and started working with bible studies with his requesting. This bought us closer and more trust built between us.
    Hope this helps???
    Thanks for your videos 😀
