The Only Dating Timeline You’ll Ever Need: Dating Advice for Women

February 25, 2014/in For Her /by Guest Blogger

Ladies! Are you a little unsure as to what is ok and not okay to do in a relationship and when? Let me give you some insight as to what most guys are expecting to happen. Follow this timeline, and that special someone will be lining up at your door!

1 week: For the first few dates showing up on time and being yourself is a sure way to start the date off right. I know this may sound obvious but there is nothing that most guys find worse than someone being anybody but themselves. Be honest with me, but keep some things to yourself. Basically, I want to know how you truly feel about my taste in music but not about your dream centerpiece for your future wedding. Lastly, lets embrace the moment! Don’t be scared to make the first move. Trust me if I’m interested I won’t resist.

1 month: At this point suggesting to pay or split the bill on a date would definitely enhance the mood, even though I most likely won’t take you up on the offer. What I will easily accept with open arms, besides a hug from you, is a small, thoughtful gift or surprise on one of our dates. I just want to know you’re remembering what I like and that my efforts are making progress.

3 Months: Whether it’s on purpose or on accident, I’m going to introduce you as my girlfriend. I’ve been spending some nights at your place and vice versa so I’d love for you to leave some clothes and a toothbrush at my place. I want to see you with sweatpants and no makeup on! You don’t have to deck yourself out every time you see me. I’m attracted to you, not the clothes you wear or how perfectly you curled your hair. I’ll watch The Notebook with you, who knows maybe I’ll even tear up? If you surprise me with that beer I’ve been wanting to try I might actually enjoy it. Just don’t tell my friends!

6+ Months: Lets make it official… Facebook official! I’ve been with you this long, which clearly indicates I’m in it to win it. Don’t hesitate to ask me if you need help moving furniture or need me to run to CVS and get you supplies (tampons and chocolate) when you need them. I’m tired of buzzing you in all the time when you come over, so let’s swap keys to each other’s places. You’ll be my +1 to my brother’s wedding, although my family and friends will all know who I’m bringing beforehand. I would love to be your +1 to a work party or your cousin’s wedding coming up. Let’s take a trip together… wine tasting? Skiing? As long as it involves us it will be a smashing time.

Dating Tips for the 21st Century Princess

June 17, 2013/in For Her /by Guest Blogger

The following article is a guest post, courtesy of Catherine Nguyen

Hey Ladies,
Let’s face it, everyone wants to fall in love like Cinderella and her Prince Charming. Or ride away into the sunset on a magic carpet with their Aladdin. Whoever it is, there are definitely some dating tips you can pick up from your childhood princesses to turn your next Bagel into your future Prince Charming.
So, in honor of Pixar’s Monster’s University release this Friday, June 21st, we’re having our own Throwback Thursday (#tbt) blog post dedicated to Disney Princess dating tips! How do these lovely ladies manage their love life in the face of adversity, whether that be in the form of a crazy stepmom or crazed suitor, Jafar? Let’s find out:
Cinderella & Prince Charming
Although Cinderella was a servant for her wicked stepmother & sisters, and had nothing to wear for the upcoming Ball, she was innovative with what she could make do with. By simply sprucing up your date outfit, you can make a strong fashion statement about the type of woman you are. Check out Poshmark, mentioned in our latest post for recent college grads new to SF, the best app for shopping the closets of other women around the world – maybe you’ll find a ball-worthy gown for your next date!
dating tips
Cinderella manages to sneak away at the stroke of midnight due to a wardrobe malfunction, but leaves the Prince hanging for more at the expense of her glass slipper. If you want to be more gracefully reminded that you have to leave your date at midnight, check out the Twist app to give yourself (and any crazy stepsisters waiting for you) a reminder of what time you will be arriving home. No more abandoned glass slippers!

Beauty & the Beast
“Don’t judge a book by its cover” – although quite self-explanatory for the Beast, the same can be applied to Belle. Ladies, don’t be afraid to show that beauty can come (and should come) with brains! In our latest post, 5 Reasons Why Nerds are the New Cool, nerds are not only smart but are more likely to emulate the “work hard, play hard” motto when having fun. So be flirty and sassy with your next (nerdy) Bagel, and maybe it can bring out the man hidden in the beast.

Belle does this by jokingly throwing snowballs at the Beast, and helps him to loosen up!

Little Mermaid & Prince Eric
“It’s all about that body language” as Ursula said, right before taking away Ariel’s beautiful voice in exchange for human legs. Without it, Ariel had to learn how to capture the attention & affection of Prince Eric, using her body language, eye contact, and genuine interest. Romantic, one-on-one dates, like a boat ride through a lagoon with a singing crab in the background, or better yet a low-key summer festival in your local area (SF, LA, Chicago, & Boston, NY, DC are coming up soon!) are great ways to learn how to master your body language and make your next Bagel apart of your world.
