I'm Just Saying...Dating Tips
Posted: 8/25/2008

 

I recently celebrated my sister-in-law's, Monique, 35^th birthday on Friday night at the hot spot, South Beach Pizza Bar located in the Fisher Building. I had a good time! The music was good and the crowd was fun.  I had an opportunity to observe the dating scene in Detroit and have come up with a few suggestions based on my observations for the single men and women of the city…

 

Ladies:

• Be Strategic!!  The first rule to getting a man is getting his attention…It’s always great to be trendy but look around at your girls before you step in the club.  If you all look alike, why the heck will the hot guy come up to you??  If your girls are wearing black, then you should wear a bright color.  If all of the girls in your crew have straight hair, you should go for big, curly hair.

 

• Adapt to Your Environment!! I’m all about women with healthy body images but ladies work with me!!  If you and your friends are a few cheeseburgers away from being casted on The Biggest Loser, you may want to consider passing up that ORDER OF FRIED CHICKEN WITH A FULL PORTION OF MACARONI CHEESE AT 1AM IN THE CLUB!!!  You are not that hungry.  When was the last time you saw Halle Berry or Paris Hilton at the Ivy in front of a plate of wings on TMZ?  No matter what people say, when you are dating…you need to be conscious.  When you get him down the aisle, it’s a whole different story…

 

  

Guys:

• Get Some Help!!  Just because it’s a Pizza Bar, it does not mean that you should be walking in the club with a Pizza Face…Acne is not a good sign to women.  You should take some time for yourself.  Go visit a Dermatologist and see what they may recommend for your skin type.  They offer great products!  You will be surprised on all of the different options that are available.

 

• Stop Being Cheap!! Offer to buy a girl a drink.  Its shocking to know how far this small gesture can take you.  Just as I mentioned to the girls before-you need to be strategic when selecting a girl to buy a drink for.  If she tries to order a drink that she can not pronounce, or if she starts out with something like, “my oldest son’s name is Tanqueray, so I love Tanqueray,” then quietly walk away.  Just think-this saved you a WHOLE LOT of drama in the future!
