How to Get the Most Out of a Blind Date

Every blind date involves equal parts luck and skill. There's not much you can do about the former, but you can take some of the mystery out of a mystery date by learning a few key strategies, Here's How:

• 1. Keep your expectations realistic. Sure, he or she could be your 'Mr. or Ms. Right', but if you walk in with a fantasy or projection of what you wish your date to be, you're bound to be disappointed.
  
• 2. Give your blind date a chance. Okay, so she's wearing a sequined tube top or he parts his hair down the middle. Find out what your date is really like. Worry about a lack of style later.
  
• 3. Don't spill all of your problems on a first date. Save that for therapy.
  
• 4. Remember that your date is just as scared of you as you are of him/her.
  
• 5. Be yourself. If he's a stockbroker or she's a tennis player, don't pretend to follow the market or be an Andre Agassi fan.
  
• 6. Always leave yourself an out. Tell your date at the beginning of the date that you have tentative plans with a friend later, just in case you need to use that excuse.

Hot little tip: There is nothing desperate about taking your life into your own hands instead of waiting around for things to magically happen. If you're getting hot and bothered, you've probably found a winner.

How to Make-up After a Fight

Would you rather always be right or be in a good relationship? Here's How:

• 1. Don't go to bed angry. It's best to agree on this approach before you get into an argument.
  
• 2. Make a friendly gesture. If you make the initial overture, it's likely it will be reciprocated.
  
• 3. Apologize for something you did in the fight. This opens the door for a real discussion.
  
• 4. Call a truce. Agree to think about the problem and discuss it calmly later.
  
• 5. Don't give your partner the silent treatment. Ignoring someone only distances you further.
  
• 6. Accept your partner's apology.
  
• 7. Make a love effort. It's not enough to apologize, but quality time helps you focus on what's great about the relationship as opposed to the fight.

Hot little tip: Give someone the space they need to open up. Learn the fine art of compromise. Don't foster jealousy. Invite him/her to go out with your friends.

How to Bounce Back After a Break Up?

How to deal with the devastation of being dumped? Here's How:

• Give yourself a break, chickapoo - Your ex is no doubt the lowlife. Take a breather, and ponder what type of guy will really fit the bill, as it were.
  
• Stop making excuses. Don't put your life on hold because you feel you can't trust men anymore. Most are ok, some are outstanding, and yes, there are a few pigs out there. Hm, that actually might be an insult to the common swine!
  
• Ease yourself back into dating, day at a time. ABC's Desperate Housewives and a pint of Ben & Jerry's Brownie batter is a dandy substitute!
  
• Don't jump into bed too quickly. It's better to err on the side of sexual caution. Try
  Toys instead of boys, you might just find it to good to be true!
  
• Don't make someone new pay for the crimes of your ex. Let go of cynicism.
  
• Don't pick someone new just because they're the opposite of your ex. Look for balance.
  
Learn the art of compromise. High standards shouldn't be confused with the refusal to compromise.

Without risk, there is no reward.
