Every one dreads the early days of dating someone new and playing the games that we do. It’s one of those things that we just have to do for some reason… you almost have to pretend to be someone you’re not for a few occasions, until you feel confident enough to let your guard down of course.
The main reason we play hard to get is to put up an invisible barrier that is there to protect us from rejection in the early days. You are being judged all the time as well as doing the judging and they are feeling exactly the same way as you!
Whilst this is all well and good and it’s a natural reaction to protect yourself from rejection by playing hard to get and getting them to demonstrate their feelings before you divulge yours, you should remember not to play it too hard… as most people get bored or get the wrong impression and bugger off, leaving you empty handed!
There is a happy medium!

Trade in that Subaru Impreza, Mitsubishi Evo…. You’ll never pull in them, well certainly not a classy bird anyway!
These are the cars to collect in… you’ll be guaranteed instant love and affection, so without further ado:
No. 10 – Dodge Challenger
A recent remake of the classic ‘Dukes of Hazard’ car, this beauty will purr their way into their hearts. Note – it’s the ONLY muscle car I am allowing into the top 10!
No. 9 – Ford GT40
Either the original or the modern version will do. You’ll need £200k to purchase one and probably the same amount if you want to run it! Never take this option if your date is an environmentalist – she’ll probably ‘key it’ and tell you to F off!
No. 8 – 1956 Porsche 356 Speedster
This should be No. 1 in my book. Look at it… it’s beautiful. It trundles along at 30mph but it’s like true love, to be taken slow! Not the most reliable engine being air cooled, but it is over 50 years old!!! I’ll give you £5 if you can’t pull in one of these.
No. 7 - Mercedes 300SL Gullwing
Now here’s a classis with some true grace. Imagine her face as the wing pops up and sees you dressed in black tie, you’ve got a licence to thrill my friend! Shame they don’t all come with the James Bond ejector seat… a great way of losing nagging women! An original will set you back £250k… if you can find one!
No. 6 – Porsche 911
Hmmmm… I love these motors BUT everyone knows them as a penis extension for balding men in their 40’s. BUT you have to admit that a lady’s face lights up with dollar signs when you roll up in one. You’re guaranteed a shag at the very least.

I get asked a fair amount why ladies are so keen to settle down, obviously the question is posed by men… mostly anyhows!
There are a couple of reasons for this; firstly, ladies may be getting clucky for babies, and it’s natural to want to tie the not first. Interestingly this is getting later and later in life with many ladies looking towards early to mid 30s to tie the knot. You can put this down to trends as well as the need to make more money to build a more secure world to bring babies into. Secondly, it’s in their nature. Back in cave men days women would be far more loyal than men and often only want one partner – so it’s bred into our genetics if you like, get over it!
For all you ladies wandering what you can do to increase your chances of finding Mr Right you MUST read Why Men Marry Some Women and Not Others by John T. Molloy. It’s a book based on scientific evidence culled from several thousand about to be married couples, and why the men decided they had to marry this specific person instead of another they’d dated previously – It’s absolutely fascinating and a great read.

How fast has 2007 gone!!! The fastest year in history, and for all us singletons it means another chance to ‘buy your own pressie’ again this year. OR you could look at it as a time to go find someone in exactly the same situation… looking for love.
Christmas is an incredibly romantic time, but it can also be a very lonely time if you’re on your own. Christmas & New Year are when the majority of hook ups happen, second to Summer holidays so all’s not lost. Think of all those Xmas parties and staff do’s… plenty of opportunity for the singleton.
Top 5 places to find your match at Christmas:
• Company Christmas Party
• Down the pub (try a different one for a change!)
• Speed dating - it’s the busiest time
• Ice skating (some great outdoor rinks packed with singles)
• Throw your own party and ask your mates to bring their mates (singletons preferably). Tis the season to be merry and all that!
