Um... how hard is it to not be needy or creepy? The only rules I've ever followed were: 1) Have a good time with my date. 2) Make sure she gets home safe.
It depends on if you're attractive or not. Being creepy is something that exists only in the mind of the woman thinking it.
Two guys can do the exact same things, and one will be creepy and the other will be romantic. It comes down to whatever factors are making her mind for her, such as looks, perceived status, etc.
True. If you're good looking or got mad guap, you're allowed to be creepier than others. In the end, there is always a "creep factor" if you're spittin game. That's why you gotta play it cool. It's a matter of trying too hard to impress a girl. Just say what you gotta say and not what you think she wants to hear you say. That's how I roll anyways.
Then there is legitimate creepy such as stalking and shit but that's a different ball game.
I guess it might depend on the age of the person - yes, teenagers need to be mistreated to be interested in someone... whereas respectable women actually appreciate manners as the only 'rules' in not just dating, but life in general.. @Simmo
Any lady I've been with has more rules then just that, it appeared to me but i do agree that is the most prominent one at least anyway that's for sure... 😕
you're bringing purity back them other virgins don't know how to act you think it's special, girls holding sex back no respect if they think the bible's wack
@JustPhillip That's because you are looking at the false superficial face of television, movies, music, and people's behaviors. Players, who get multiple women are the most miserable, lonely men. They are corroded and rotting inside, they are NOT happy.
Would you rather feel like a failure, or BE one? It takes a TON more honor, energy, and difficulty to be an honorable man, then to take the easy way out and have sex before marriage. You are actually a winner, with a bright future ahead of you. Very few people can say that my friend.
It's a phase everyone goes through. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, work at being a better man. That means softening your heart, practicing maturity and temperance, even working out and building your self confidence. It means working at increasing your self worth, too. You have to realize that you are valuable, you are not a mistake of evolution.
That's why I am not interested in dating. I am not too sure why I would be interested in any girl that would see my actions that way. So much for 'being myself'.
This is totally off-topic but I just wanted to know so*
Shouldn't the title of this take be "There are" instead of "There is", since "rules" is in plural? Or is there some secret rule in the English language?
Dating is so very simple. You just overthink it and put to much pressure onto yourself in that situation.

This is why I don't date its just too overwhelming with all of these rules. I'm glad I decided to completely remove myself from the dating world. Its as if a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders. Modern dating is a joke and complete burden.
I wish girls weren't so critical of us guys, we try our best. Nowadays if you don't time it right then the girl is like "ew get away from me" why so harsh?

You, my sir, know exactly what you're talking about. *applauds*
ah.. the game of dating... i suck at that game... like... really fucking bad... fuck this game it's worse then dark souls fused with contra
Nope. Manners - the only rules - apply to any social situation. =)
There's abot more to female's then that lol

I don't think just manners gets you very far these days lol
But it should be the most important.
The hardest rule is not having sex until you know that you want to spend the rest of your life with, then waiting until the honeymoon.
But it is the most important rule.
you're bringing purity back
them other virgins don't know how to act
you think it's special, girls holding sex back
no respect if they think the bible's wack
take 'em to the alter
That made me smile... thank you! <3
Im a virgin and honestly it makes me feel like I've failed at life

Girls finding me unattractive or ugly makes me a winner? okay

i don't think anyone i know really follows these rules anymore after a certain age but that's just my experience

Thanks! :D
Yeah I agree if there were no rules it'd better awesome but it already is.

Hmmm... then how do you find a guy?
What do you mean how do I find guys? They're everywhere.
He means how are you going to find "the one" if you dont look
I won't. That's the point. This too many rules thing extends to relationships too. That's what I don't like and that's what I'm avoiding.
I wish girls weren't so critical of us guys, we try our best. Nowadays if you don't time it right then the girl is like "ew get away from me" why so harsh?
I agree...
What can we do about it? exactly, nothing. So we keep following them hoping for it to work out.
Fuck the rules and make your own is what I have always said.
I don't follow any of the rule while dating. I do whatever I like to do.
I have trouble getting as far as asking if someone has a boyfriend (asking woman)
You are too old for that and only getting older. Stop wasting time and just talk to them.
Dating rules are for teenagers and idiots.
I follow no rules. Rules follow me.
It's like everything...
