Why Take Dating Advice from this “Bachelor”?

Recently I caught part of an episode of Dr. Phil where he had some handsome guy as a guest trying to advise women how not to be in order to get the man of their dreams.

What To Know Before You Ask Someone Out for a Date

A good rule of thumb, if you ask someone out on a date, know where you want to go or what you want to do before you ask them. There are several reasons for this, of course, but the best reason is that people are indecisive. They are never quite sure what they want to do, but will often agree to do something if it sounds like fun. So for the average person who wants to go out on a date, the first issue you should acknowledge is that money is likely to be involved. Whether it’s just paying for … Continue reading →
