Losers in Dating and Relationship


Do you consider yourself as a loser in a relationship? You have to admit it because you are not alone. Tremendous numbers of letters are received by love advisers about people considering themselves as losers in a relationship. Losers are not really the one who is hurt in the relationship but they are the ones who hurt someone, the ones that are abusive, controlling, and manipulative. Their victims are not the losers but they are.

In a relationship where you are the victim of the losers, you have to think that you are the winner and don’t let that hurt consume you. Moving on is easy when you know you are not the one who did something wrong in a relationship. Those losers are considered dysfunctional individuals that are the reason why they are trying to be manipulative and controlling in the relationship. All you have to do is to move on and find a winner like you.

Attracting the Opposite Sex




The dating game could sometimes be a hard game if you don’t know how to increase your odds. You have to know how to play the game and be sure that you know the rules to follow that will make you win.

First, you have to be the center of attention, not doing obnoxious things like you lack attention, but by simply staying at a place where they can see you and attract people there. Make a few walks but don’t tend to trip on the carpet or the chair. Next, you have to choose your color. For men, blue is more attractive to women for some reasons. For women, you can wear pink but not the colors that are too aggressive or intimidating. Next, you have to use body language and make yourself approachable. You have to smile. Finally, you have to use a scent that will make a guy or girl go gaga over you.
