Why Should I Hire a Dating and Relationship Life Coach?

There is a lot of buzz about hiring a dating coach with the movie "Hitch" and with TV and the latest shows like, "How to Get the Guy". You may be considering, "Is this something that can help me? Is it worth the money?" Like anything in life, when you put focus and persistence together, you get results. Here are some reasons to consider hiring a dating and relationship coach:

1. Who can you really trust?

Everyone has an agenda. Your friends want to beat you to the punch line. Your parents want you to settle for a "nice" but nerdy guy. Your married friends want you to stop whining and can't figure what's wrong with you. A coach is an objective person who will give you the real scoop and tell you like it is!

2. The coach looks at your life as a holistic system.

It's important to consider how the other pieces of your life impact your dating life such as work and family obligations. Many times the other areas in your life make it very difficult to put the attention to dating. A coach looks at the best options for you to consider given your circumstances. One client I told her that she is not in a good position to be dating and to take care of her family needs first. She actually felt relieved that she was let off the hook.

3. To nail down your true values to help you target the right people to date.

Most of my clients think they know their values, but many are uncovered that they never really thought about. I do an in-depth values clarification with every client. They all tell me that this is the key to finding the right relationship.

4. Help you dump your excuses about not dating successfully

Everyone has reasons they can't get a date or why they are not dating. "When I lose 10 pounds, I'll start dating." Baloney! People meet people at all ages, sizes and shapes. If you are stuck in a negative perspective, it may be time to get some new and positive ideas to move you forward.

5. To kick your butt into action!

Just like a personal trainer, a dating and relationship life coach will push you to do more. A dating coach will help you get out and try new things to meet people. I have gotten my clients on online dating websites and told them to contact at least 50 women in order to get a couple of positive responses. I stay on them to go to events in their area and to consider singles trips-especially in the summer.

Sometimes you need a push in the right directions. That's the role of the dating and relationship life coach.

Three Nonverbal Signals He'll Throw Your Way That You Don't Want To Miss

How do you know if he likes you? If you're like most girls, you've asked that question at least once in your life. You're not alone. It really is hard to tell. There are different reasons, but it usually boils down to one or two things:

1. Some guys are shy.

2. Some guys just don't know how to let you know.

Guys can be so socially awkward and immature sometimes. If it were up to them, most would settle for pulling your ponytail just like they did during recess in elementary school. ("I like her. How can I tell her? Oh! Oh! I know. I'll pull out a clump of her hair in front of her friends and she's sure to get the message.")

So how can you know if he likes you despite his complete lack of social awareness? Here are three tried and true nonverbal signals that you can look for that will let you quickly and easily know if he sees you as more than just a friend.

1. You get the feeling that someone is looking at you, but as soon as you turn in his direction he immediately looks away and appears disinterested.

This one is hard to spot, but if you've ever done it to a guy yourself (and most of us have) then you'll recognize the signs that he's doing it to you.

2. He'll smile at you from a distance, but as soon as you're close, he'll look anywhere but directly at you.

This one is a dead giveaway. Most guys have no problem playing the part of the "confident male" from across the room. There's no danger in that. In fact, he may seem like a real Romeo when he texts or emails you, but as soon as he has to think of what to say in real time with you standing there, his sudden surge of hormones and racing pulse and make it almost impossible for him to keep his thoughts straight and together.

3. His voice may crack or he may stammer over words when he talks to you.

Again, blame it on the raging hormones. When a guy sees a woman to whom he's attracted within touching distance, he can easily become flustered. The number of images and scenarios racing through his mind is spectacular. There may even be times when he starts talking that he doesn't remember what he was talking about -- in mid-sentence!

Yes guys are an unusual breed. Harder to piece together than a jigsaw puzzle. But they are so worth the time it takes to figure them out. If you're wondering if a guy is interested, these three clues will give you insight. Couple them with your built-in woman's intuition and you'll have a really good idea if he's into you whether he admits to it or not.

Conversation Chemistry: If Only, I Learned From This Dating Advice Book On Communication With Women

Did you know, one of the key skills that any good dating advice books will show you is communication.

Here's a fact to consider: Over 60 percent of marriages in our society ends in divorce. OVER HALF of all new marriages will fail. This is very heartbreaking for individuals, and for families. Do you know one of the most common reasons that these relationships fail? It's because of the lack of communication, or because of toxic communication.

The lack of communication goes deeper than just not saying "How was your day" when the couple comes home, although pleasantries would certainly be endearing and polite.

The lack of communication means that both people either aren't being real with what's on their minds and their hearts. Or, they have simply stopped speaking with each other. Actually, the first leads to the second condition. For example, men tend to hold their thoughts close to the vest, as the saying goes. It's just in a man's nature to not be expressive. Men are conditioned in this way, because they are taught that anything less is being a "punk", "chump", or any different behavior means that he just isn't being a man on some level.

On the other hand, women don't communicate because they have been taught to play toxic games with the opposite sex. They are taught the game of "If he loves me then...". Part of how this game works, is that the man is supposed to guess at what the woman is thinking and feeling. If he loves her, then he will always have his radar up at all times of the day, 24/7, always knowing exactly what is on her mind and her heart. She will never have to tell him anything. This absolves her of the responsibility of being a healthy communicating adult, and it "shows" her how much he loves her. Of course, because men don't in fact have mind reading radars or capabilities, then the woman's needs aren't met. She will respond to this with resentment, pouting, and bitterness.

This will result in a host of behaviors that are toxic, and downright abusive. These behaviors can include the "blame game", biting remarks, sarcasm, lashing out, screaming, name calling, or fits of rage that include violence or tantrums. Or, things can go ice cold. There will be stonewalling, ignoring, avoidance, neglecting each others' physical needs, and drifting apart until someone is not only unfaithful, but they feel justified in their indiscretions.

A dating advice book that teaches couples how to communicate would help to solve these problems. "A dating advice book?" someone might holler out. Yes, the book is targeted for men who want to succeed in dating women and improve their relationships with women.

It goes without saying that couples at any stage of their relationship would need to know how to communicate with each other. Without healthy communication, and a healthy understanding of who each person is to each other, the relationship is doomed!

"Conversation Chemistry" is a dating advice book that enables you to communicate with women. This dating guide is loaded with 300 pages of "how to" tips on understanding and communicating with women. Learn the skills that help you attract women on deeper and connecting level.
