Speed Dating Dos and Don’ts by Steve Ward
January 24, 10
Next Friday just may be the day you find your Luvah (girls, that’s not only in a man but also with our new product, Luvah, which you’ll get to road test at our speed dating event at the W Hoboken).
<—– Todd, my Luvah!
Yesterday, I posted some relationship tips from our event host, Master Matchmaker Steve Ward (VH-1’s Tough Love). As you gear up to speed date to love, I bring you more of his sage advice.
PL: What is the worst thing you can do while speed dating?
SW: Don’t be negative.
PL: What mistakes do you think women make when they’re looking for love?
SW: They blame everyone and everything but themselves. They don’t take responsibility for their failings.
PL: What about men?
SW: Either they aren’t willing to make enough effort and seem like they’re not that into the woman, or they make too much effort and come off pushy and aggressive. It’s a double edged sword.
PL: What is the secret to good speed dating?
Keep your comments, questions and answers short, sweet and to the point.
PL: What kind of questions do you suggest everyone ask each other to make the most of their 3 minute speed dating time?
SW: Where are you from? What do you do? And are you in the market for just a good time or are you in the market for a relationship? Focus on the person you’re most instantly attracted to and come prepared with business cards or a pad and pen to exchange contact information.
PL: What is the worst thing you could do while speed dating?
SW: Talk about things prematurely, i.e. past relationships, politics, religion, money, etc.
PL: What do you think daters should wear?
SW: Wear something flattering yet comfortable; clothes you can be confident in. Wear an outfit that accentuates your style, personality, and body type.
PL: How can a woman sense if a guy is looking for the real thing or not – and vice versa?
SW: She can’t sense it. She’ll have to be straight up and ask and then see if she can tell whether or not he’s being honest.
PL: What are the tell-tale body language signs that someone is into you?
SW: They smile, make eye contact and physical contact. They focus and ignore distractions, like other people or their phones.
PL: Best way to do a first date for the love matches from speed dating (of course, after their drink at W Hoboken)?
SW: The guys should pick the women up at their homes or meet a place most convenient for them. Then arrange a date where its conducive to a good conversation. You already know there’s at least some physical attraction otherwise you wouldn’t have made it this far in the first place so now it’s time to see if you’re actually compatible.
PL: Would you be willing to try our product, Luvah, so we can get a man’s take on it? I mean, after all, you could wind up kissing somoene who’s weraing it (not at the event, but in general, because all girls will be wearing it eventually!)
SW: Hmm. I’m sure considering how wildly popular this product is, I must’ve tried it before without knowing it. The problem with lip gloss is three fold. One, constant application annoys the hell out of men. Two, women are reluctant to kiss because they don’t want to rub off the product. And three, they leave it on everything they put their lips to such as forks, glasses…our faces.
PL: You’re so funny! So… what can we say to the girls who are coming and secretly want to date you?
SW: You’ll just have to tell them I’ve met someone and am excited about being exclusive.
PL: Thank you so much for being a part of this! What excited you about it?
SW: I’m very competitive. I love the idea of trying to break a world record. I’m sure we can do it!
Can’t wait to see you on Friday!
Mwah!

One thing I’ve noticed is always that there are plenty of misguided beliefs regarding the banks intentions any time talking about foreclosure. One myth in particular is always that the bank wants your house. Your banker wants your hard earned cash, not your property. They want the money they loaned you with interest. Steering clear of the bank will undoubtedly draw any foreclosed realization. Thanks for your post.
