Have you seen DatingAdvice.com’s lastest study that says gay Americans are more likely to kiss on the first date than our straight counterparts? If not, check it out here. What are your thoughts on why this might be the case? Equally striking is the amount of gay men who report their dislike for this form of affection and intimacy. Why would this be? For me, there’s no bigger turn-on!

One of the most important make-it-or-break-it moments in dating is your introduction when approaching someone you’re interested in getting to know. Since first impressions and judgments are formed within the first couple of minutes (or less) of meeting someone, your presentation during your approach is critical in ensuring that that hot guy you want to strike up a conversation with reciprocates an interest. This means that what you say, how you say it, and how you posture yourself with your body language all carry a lot of weight in how the other guy is going to interpret your advances, and the meanings he’ll attribute to it. You’ll of course want to put your best foot forward to increase your chances of success in charming and hooking him into having a flirtatious chat, and one of the strategies that you can employ in heightening your appeal to him is delivering a creative and witty “opening line.”

Your eyes catch the handsome stranger from across the bar and you find yourself captivated—he’s just your type. “Go talk to him,” your friend nudges. As your head swirls with imagery on how you might approach him, your body tenses as you begin to worry about how you might be perceived and fears of rejection and embarrassment immobilize you. Frozen in place, you try to muster up the courage to put one foot in front of the other, but before you can contemplate your opening line, he walks out of the bar with a group of his friends. Opportunity lost.

Is this scenario all too familiar? I conducted a  poll on my website once asking single gay men if they tended to initiate contact with a man they found interesting or if they waited to be pursued. The overwhelming majority of respondents indicated that they were passive daters, meaning they waited for men to approach them to start conversations. The sad reality of this is that if most men wait to be approached, very few contacts are made. How many great relationships could have gotten off the ground had someone made that first move? Refuse to allow yourself to be one of those liability statistics. To be successful in dating, one must be a proactive dater by being in the driver’s seat and making things happen through one’s own initiative.

I get lots of letters from guys asking how to become a more skilled flirt, and while it seems like a very sophisticated and crafted social skill, it really isn’t as mysterious and elusive as it may seem. It’s not about performance, and it has more to do with you being yourself and exuding a relaxed demeanor and confidence. Those with good self-esteem and who are comfortable with their sexuality tend to fare better in flirting situations because they’re not as riddled with self-doubt, inhibition, anxiety, and insecurity that could hold them back.

Introduction

Whether you’re single and looking for “The One” or are trying to break into a social group or land a new job with a potential employer, you may only have one opportunity to peak someone’s interest and curiosity in who you are and what you might bring to the table. It’s commonly said that people form a first impression of someone within minutes, and sometimes even seconds, of meeting him. Unlike those in your support system who know you intimately, new people only have limited knowledge about who you are and will form a judgment or an image about you by what they see and observe in their brief encounter with you. This hardcore reality can make or break an interaction, so you want to make sure you put your best foot forward to increase your chances of success in whatever outcome you’re seeking to accomplish in that particular social exchange. read more >>

Introduction

You look across the crowded bar to the target of your interest on the other side of the room. He’s dashingly handsome in a leather jacket, leaning up against the wall watching the videos on the TV screen as he sips at his beer. He senses your presence and shifts his eyes in your direction to meet your gaze. He holds the eye contact briefly before looking away. Moments later, he looks back and connects with your eyes again, this time holding the gaze a little bit longer. You slightly raise your eyebrows and shoot him a quick smile. Your heart pounds with anticipation as he nods his head once and cracks a return smile. Green light—he’s interested! You take a deep breath as you plunge into the crowd, making your way toward the hottie across the room to make your introduction.
