"It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves."
William Shakespeare Shakespeare is correct in that proposition. Some people believe in "fate" and that there is only "one special person" out there for them. That is a nice concept, but some people are deluded that they do not have to put an effort in finding said person, and that he or she will simply show up in their life and win their heart. Newsflash: those Disney fairy tale days are over. So, instead of sitting on your couch waiting for that prince charming or princess to come knocking at your door, let us review some necessary steps to meeting that wonderful man or woman.
First of all, one must be familiar with common etiquette. After all, you would not want someone to be rude or brash toward you. In the second grade, a kid would sometimes pick on or play tricks on his or her crush; and did those attempts persuade others to like them? I am not sure about every case but in my class, those attempts would just make everyone look at the tormentor in a bad way. So, let us have more maturity than those elementary students and remember to show kindness. Let me give you a couple of scenarios.
1) You are coming to a door and someone is walking behind you. What do you do? Well, you certainly do not let the door slam in their face. You hold the door open until they have a hold on the door.
2) Someone around you is holding a lot of papers. Because of the wind, some of their papers fly out of their hands and fall on the ground. Instead of avoiding eye contact and hurriedly walking past, the better response is to bend down and help them pick up the lost papers.
See? Kindness is not difficult and the other person will see you not as a jerk, but as one with manners, which will attract others. People prefer to be treated nicely.
Hygiene is also of great importance. I only hope that I do not need to mention tat showering/bathing is a necessity. Women and men like others who smell nice. Another thing to focus on is the way you dress. Apparel and hygiene go hand-in-hand. Because different people have different styles and tastes in clothes, I will not tell you exactly what you should wear. Although, I will say one thing. Do not look like a hobo. I am not trying to offend you as the reader or hobos, when i say that. I simply mean that you should not be sloppy in what you wear. So, let us leave the food and the stains off of our clothes and try to wear clothing that fits. Before i end this paragraph, let me clarify something first. You should not have to wear all of the latest and most expensive clothes for people to accept you, but it is imperative that you keep up with your hygiene and look decent. Still, there is nothing wrong with dressing nicely.
After reviewing your etiquette, showering, and putting on a nice outfit, you are ready for the next step: human interaction. Now, we must move on to the art of small talk.
It is a given that in order to meet a suitable match, one must come in contact with people. Whether at school, college, or even the workplace, one will be surrounded by people.
Now, after enduring this little pep talk, explore my website for several resources on how to start conversations and on the secrets behind men and women.
p.s. backing out is no longer an option...
"For of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: 'It might have been'" -John Greenleaf Whittier.
...do not let this be you.
