5 Dating Tips

Be Prepared:

Know where you're going, who you want to meet, and know what you'll be eating and drinking or what you'd like to have. Be prepared for all situation, pack essentials in your purse, and know what's going on in the world. If you want to meet a man in finance, read up about finance before you head out, if you're interested in men who are in business, read up about international business. Be prepared with different subjects to talk about, be physically prepared, and be prepared to meet people. You can't walk out of your home expecting to not succeed, walk out of your home with a positive attitude and know that you'll succeed in all of your endeavours. If you're going on a date some someone special or just want to meet someone specific, you need to be prepared for every possible situation, then you can handle everything that comes your way properly.

I used to steam and perfect my outfits, use a lint roller, and get my shoes and stockings ready and hour before I got in the shower and at least 2,5 hours before I did my makeup. I was always ready to go out. I was always in that mindset. I was the sort of woman who didn't like to bother with Mr. Right Nows, I liked to be in the mindset of knowing that I could easily go out and find my Mr. Right if I believed that I could. There's a mindset of success that you need to have, you can't believe you'll fail. I wanted to be with a man that I could thrive and grow old with, laugh and cry with, have late nights and early mornings with, and enjoy life in all it splendour with. I didn't see the point of going out over and over and trying life with a million men when I knew there's was only one for me. I didn't consider that of have to look forever, I only considered the fact that I knew that I would be happy and whole in the future with the man that I knew I'd marry.

Make a list of the things you won't negotiate:

What are the things that you'd never consider in a man you're with? Would you date a smoker or a drinker? Would you date a Protestant if you're a Catholic? Would you date a man who does casual party drugs? Would you live your life with a man who's seriously overweight and doesn't want to change? You need to make a list of the things that you would absolutely not consider in a partner, money comes secondary but the fact of the matter is that there's nothing worse than being with someone who you're supposed to love but wishing every moment that you were alone.

There are some men who don't want marriage, if you are desperate to be married, don't settle down with them. Put it on your non-negotiable list that you'd like to be married within 5 years and find a man that you'd like to be married to. There are men out there who want to be married and will propose to you, find one of them. There's no need to be with a man who doesn't want to marry anyone and try to convince him to marry you. You don't want to force anyone into marriage if they're not absolutely enthusiastic about being with you.

The proper man for you will propose to you when the time is right, the proper man for you will be the man you need to be with, and if he's willing to quit alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes to be with you, he'll do it without you feeling like you've forced him into making decisions that he doesn't want to do. When you find him, you'll know. There's nothing like having non-negotiables so you know exactly what you need out of a relationship and you know the sort of man that you're looking for. There's no shame in having expectations for someone.

Establish your longterm goals:

What do you want from life and from your marriage in 5 years, 10 years, 15 years, and 20 years? Where do you see yourself now and where do you want to see yourself? What do you want? You need to know what you want and have an idea of what you need within certain time frames. Would you like to be married within 5 years and have a baby within 7 years? Would you like houses? Do you want to travel? Do you want jewellery? What do you want? Figure out what you want beforehand so you have an idea of what sort of man you want to spend your life with. Your longterm goals need to match the longterm goals of your potential husband, if not, then you probably won't be compatible in the long run. If you have an idea of the goals and the things you want and you meet a man who's capable of giving you those things, consider a relationship. Once you find someone, you don't need to keep looking, it'll lead to disappointment. Once you find someone you love and want to be with, stop looking for someone better, settle down, and grow up.

Be candid about your values:

I'm a religious woman, even though Frederick was Lutheran when I met him, his paternal family is extremely Conservative and Catholic. I began going to Lutheran Church when I moved in with him in Sweden because it was convenient and because it was the church that his maternal family went to. When we moved to England, he realised that it would be easier to go to Catholic Church and he preferred it because it was familiar. I was raised with traditional values and Catholic values and he was as well. One of the reasons why we worked together was because of our similar values. If you're a conservative and very religious, it's probably not going to work out with a man who's an atheist and who's very liberal. Don't waste your time on men who don't have values similar to yours because they won't change.

I'm happy at home but I work 2 hours daily with my husband because he needs me. I leave the house. He's perfectly happy to let me leave if I want to. I'm always evolving and I'm happy with a man who's able to adapt. Do you have the same values towards Sex? Politics? Children? Religion? Staying home? Money? Know what you need from a man and know that you need to be certain with your choices. If you can't speak about things and agree, you need to consider how your life would be together. There's a reason conservatives date and marry conservatives, there's a reason Christian women date Christian men, and there's a reason why liberal men and liberal women marry and date. They all share similar values with each other.

List down all the men you meet and write down what you liked and didn't like about them:

For every date you go on and for every man you meet, write down what you didn't like and what you liked about them. It's important to know what you like in a man. You should list down qualities, hobbies, jobs, and other positive things that you like about the men that you've met that you like so you can begin to look for the things that they all have in common. If you know what you like, you'll have an easier time when it comes to finding what you're looking for in a potential husband.

Same with the negatives, list the negative things so you know what you don't like and don't think you'd like in a potential husband. If you meet men with bad behaviour, note that bad behaviour down so you have an easier time identifying it in a potential husband. Knowing all of the things that you consider negative and being able to identify them in a future husband are so important, you don't need to sift through men when you can take your list of negatives and make the process so much easier on yourself. Knowing what you consider negative and figuring out on your own time is so important to growing up and learning what you need in a potential husband.

I think it's much easier to make a list of all of the things that you do and don't like in men that you meet than to make a list with no experience. Yes, you can look up certain qualities and such and list them but what if you decide that you do like them? I thought that I could never love a man who was aggressive, Frederick threw one punch and took my ex boyfriend out and I realised just how much a little bit of aggression when defending my honour could light my fire. I dislike conspiracy theorists, I know the earth is round, and I could never be with a man who believed in conspiracy theories and thought the earth was flat. There's nothing to it.

The Art of Getting What You Want

1. Humans are all about self. 

Know this. This is one of my golden rules. Why do you help people? Because it feels good to help others. If you can get someone to see that what you want is in their best interest too, you will always get what you want. 

2. Add Value.

You have to find a way to add value to that person’s life. When you do market research, they explain that you need to find a gap in the market then find a way to fill it. How does this connect? Study this person. Find out what they need that they aren’t aware of. Listen to when they speak. People tell on themselves every day. Most often, you will be told exactly what you want to know if you are listening. 

3. What you want is already yours.

You have to walk into a situation with the mindset that you came to win. Ask. Believe. Allow. You have to start by asking for something that you believe, subconsciously and consciously, that you can have. Once you do that, believe that you are going to have it. Then sit back and do the inspired work to get it done. You don’t have to work as hard as you think.

Example:

You want a specific amount of money monthly. Let’s say $3000. You have to put out efforts into the Universe that will bring you that $3000. Whether that be a vanilla job which yields $2500 and an SD that brings you $500 for a dinner date every month, the how isn’t your business. Let the Universe meet you halfway. 

4. Stop Worrying.

Do you worry that your bi-weekly paycheck isn’t going to direct deposit? Chances are that you don’t. So stop worrying about the money that is coming from a source that isn’t guaranteed. Law of Attraction is real and always in effect. So if you aren’t receiving what you want, then consider what you’re putting out to the Universe. Worrying about how things may not work out is the quickest way to attract what you’re worrying about. 

When you see someone walking a tight rope, what is the biggest piece of advice they are told? Don’t look down. So same applies when you are looking to succeed and get what you want. Focus on positivity and being grateful. The Universe will give you more things to be grateful for. 

Since April, I have manifest the best man I have ever had, a senior position at a firm, my own consulting company and 6 figures a year from both of them. 

5. SHUT UP.

In the world we live in, everyone is so quick to run and tell everyone what they have cooking on the stove. STOP IT. First of all, not everyone has the best intentions for you. Their vibration can mess up what you have going on. Stop sharing until you have what you want and have had it for some months.

The only people who knew what was happening was me and my man. Only because he is the same way and I can trust that he wants the best for me. The devil will speak to and use others to try and thwart your plans. I don’t care if you want to tell your siblings…best friends…parents. DONT. Lay low and boss up is a movement for a reason. 

Thats the starter pack to shifting your life to where your wildest dreams are coming true. I’m going from men being my sugar daddy to the universe being my ultimate SD. I’ll be sharing my little tips and tricks along my journey. These tips also work on traditional SD situations. I just got tired of sacrificing my body, energy and time for what I want.

Disclaimer: this is not shade for any woman who is in the bowl. I commend you for sticking with it. I just needed to find something that worked better for my mind and spirit. Happy hoeing 🤸🏾‍♀️

High Maintenance tactic: Dream Girl Energy

The goal is to create an air of desire about you. Seduction (especially in romantic relationships) is impossible if you are not deemed desirable by society or at least in your community. When people are drawn to you and you seem exclusive you will have the power over anyone under your spell. This is why traditionally pageants would always choose the same girls, why we all have the same image of what a “trophy wife” is supposed to be. Unfortunately, those tropes also have racist/ colorist undertones. But do not be discouraged. A thin blonde is born with this trope projected upon her but you as an individual can cultivate that image for yourself. ( you still have to be beautiful and in shape I.e Miss Universe 2020 isn’t the standard but her beauty threatens the standard) Beauty is important even if it doesn’t fit the standard.

A high Self esteem and confidence are imperative For any of this to work.

Create a brand for yourself, and make it exclusive. The campier the better. You want to be extra, you are a dream after all. Appeal to a certain desire. In this case, the trope that should be your inspiration is the ideal lover. (these tactics transcend romance) Be reminiscent of a fictional character. You need a social media presence to do this.

Create mystery. The best way to do this is to not be an open book or common. Add a little campiness to your personality and cliches. Be the girl who effortlessly wears heels to class or to the office everyday. You won’t look like a try hard if it matches your energy.

Never publicly deny or confirm rumors or assumptions about you. Don’t get mad at gossip. In fact, you need people to gossip about you, it will only add to your mystery. Even ignite gossip about yourself. It’s good to have gossips around you, but only let them know what you don’t mind getting out.

The ideal lover is a fetish. This is not pc, but stop being afraid of being a fetish. You don’t think the exotic look is a fetish for pro-athletes? It is! But those women stay winning in said field. In fact, when someone sees you as a fetish, you shouldn’t run away- monetize it! Be the token if it will benefit you. (I’m not encouraging use your position to discriminate against your own or to crab climb. As a bw, I didnt make the game, and I’m not gonna play fair when no one else does.)

People want what others want. Only date men of a high status who display a passionate effort. (Think about Lauren from love is blind) When people see how much he caters to you they will think higher of you. His want for you will make them want you or want to be you. These relationships can be temporary so don’t harp on character. If and when he messes up leave. Never be afraid to leave and maintain your standards at work and in relationships.

Cultivate an inner circle but stay friendly to outsiders. Your circle needs to be desired obviously. Be strategic; the people you keep around you greatly impact your lifestyle, mindset and perceived value. It’s important to have at least one true good friend but don’t harp on how “real” everybody is. You need strong and diverse connections. Have a friend who is crazy supportive of you.

Ultimately be the fantasy that’s missing. It’s fake but that’s what makes this path a road less travel and therefore- less competition. Nowadays everyone wants to be so “real” and “relatable” that they become fake. Celebs have lost their allure. Beyoncé is worshipped because she maintained her allure and mystic but connects enough for us to remember her. Our society is disingenuous, what everyone truly craves is a fantasy and escapism. If you supply that demand ➡️🤑💰💵💕

Being High Maintenance and getting used to standing out:

It takes time and a strong sense of self worth to not settle and not to be affected by mediocre individuals and their bitterness. I wish the idea of a high maintenance lifestyle would inspire most people to do and expect better but that's not the case for a lot of them. In this post I'd like to share a few personal experiences that really made me realise that some people aren't worth my time and energy. However sometimes you can't avoid the criticism.

Where i'm from it's uncommon for teenagers to work. An acquaintance of mine took foreign language classes for an exam required for higher education. Her parents refused to pay for her books, her classes and exam and forced her into a summer job because of it. She made a lot more money than what she needed but I felt a bit awkward as she was telling me this because I've never heard of someone refusing to buy their kid a single book, not to mention for something so important that literally affects their future.

One time I was talking to a friend of mine about our expectations for the future. I said I plan on staying home once I have children because I consider it important for kids to have their parents around as much as possible and a man should be expected to provide for his family. She stared at me like I had two heads.

There are people who know about my standards and the lifestyle I envision for myself only to tell me they're unrealistic, unattainable and that "no man wants a woman to live off him".

A certain talking point lead to majority of my class admitting that their parents are either divorced or in general have a negative relationship. I was one of the few people to say my parents are still together. Furthermore we were asked if there are some regular activities we do with our family or if they go on holiday. I was the only one to say we go regularly. This put me in a really awkward position and almost made me feel guilty about being from a good family. I could tell people felt shocked by my answer because of the complete silence they responded with.

A lot of my peers worked throughout the school year. I was asked if I also had a job to which I replied that "I'm focusing on school and I don't need one right now". I was met with stares and snarky comments, people mumbled under their breath and called me "bougie". I didn't have a job and I also wasn't expected to get one. Why would my parents want me, their 16 year old daughter at the time, to work until nighttime when I barely had expenses. When they worked their whole lives to give me a comfortable life? And furthermore, why should I feel bad about that?

It was then that I really understood living comfortably is something mediocre people can't comprehand. I'm not just talking about having the privilige of not needing a job or having material goods but basic things such as loving relationships, pursuing something you love and having a higher education. They're so deeply in the mindset of which society indoctrinates people with; that they should be content with a mediocre 9-5 job they despise, a 50/50 relationship by the end of which they resent their partner completely, with failing marriages, with increasing divorce rates and unhappy children. I'm bringing these points up because these people will be repeating the cycle. They're envious of those who realise they deserve and do better but fail to gain inspiration from that. They make themselves feel better with petty comments and taking their frustrations out on others so they can sleep better at night when they repeatedly wake up to live a life they didn't want but settled for.

Seduction Steps

1. Create a need

A perfectly satisfied person cannot be seduced. 

Tension and disharmony must be instilled in your targets minds. 

Stir within them feelings of discontent and unhappiness with their circumstances and with themselves. 

Make them see you as the answer to that problem. 

Pain and anxiety are the proper Precursors to pleasure. 

Learn to manufacture the need that you can fill.

2. Master the art of insinuation

There’s no known defense against insinuation - the art of planting ideas in peoples minds 

Drop elusive hints that take root days later and even appear to them as their own idea. 

Make everything suggestive.

3. Enter their spirit

Enjoy what they enjoy, Play by their rules, adapt yourself to their mood. 

In doing so you will stroke their deep-rooted narcissism and lower their defenses.

Indulge your targets every mood and whim, giving them nothing to react against or resist.

4. Prove yourself

Most people want to be seduced. If they resist your efforts, it is probably because you haven’t successfully allayed their doubts about your motives and the depth of your feelings. 

Do not worry about looking foolish or making a mistake - any kind of deed that is self sacrificing and for your target’s sake will so overwhelm their emotions, they won’t notice anything else.

Know your target well and aim your seductive evidence at the source of their doubts or resistance.

5. Use physical lures 

Targets with active minds are dangerous. If they see through your manipulations, they may suddenly develop doubts. 

Put their minds gently to rest and awaken their dormant senses by combining a non-defensive attitude with a charged sexual presence. 

While you’re cool, nonchalant air is lowering their inhibitions, your glances, voice, and bearing - oozing sex and desire, are getting under their skin and raising their temperature. 

By infecting your targets with heat, you lure them into lust. Morality, judgment and concern for the future will all melt away.

6. Isolate the Target

A target who is strong and settled is hard to seduce. But even the strongest people can be made vulnerable if you can isolate them from their nest and safety nets. 

Block out his friends and family with your constant presence, alienate them from the world he is used to and take him to places they do not know. 

Get them to spend time in your environment. Deliberately to stop their habits, get them to do things they have never done. 

They will grow emotional, making it easier to lead them astray. 

Disguise all this in the form of a pleasurable experiences and your targets will wake up one day, distanced from everything that normally comforts them. 

Then they will turn to you for help, like a child crying out for his mother.

The danger of travel is that your targets are intimately exposed to you. It is hard to maintain an air of mystery.

But if you take them to a place alluring enough to distract them, it will prevent them from focusing on anything banal in your character.

7. Break the Rules

A person who is kind or good or spiritual within the limits that society prescribes, has a weak appeal.

It might seem that a permissive society imposes few limits, find some.

There will always be limits, sacred costs, behavioral standards - endless ammunition for stirring up the transgressive and taboo. 

In Seduction, there’s absolutely no power in respecting boundaries and limits.

8. Keep them in suspense

The moment people feel they know what to expect from you, your spell on them is broken. 

The only way to lead the seduced along and keep the upper hand is to create suspense, a calculated surprise. 

They will not be able to foresee what comes next. You were always one step ahead and in control.

9. Give them space to fall - the pursuer is pursued

Once they are under your spell, take a step back and they will start to come after you. 

Hint that you are growing bored. Seem interested in someone else. 

Stir up jealousy, make them feel insecure and the validation you later give their ego by preferring them over their rivals is doubly delightful.

Half of seduction is stirring such competitive desires. 

Remember you have more to fear by boring your targets then by shaking them up. 

Create the illusion that the seducer is being seduced.

I have so much potential… i can’t give up on myself.

[jadegreenfacemask]

Ways using my feminine energy has positively affected my life:

I get a free almond croissant (my absolute favourite) with my coffee every time I go to my local cafe

People seem to stare at me blatantly and constantly

The gym manager by my house gave me an extensive personal training package for free

People will gravitate towards me across a busy room

I never have to carry anything anywhere ever; men will insist in carrying my groceries, shopping bags, parcels ect

I am constantly being offered invitations to all sorts of high profile events

Strangers will approach me for an actual conversation (they will also recommend me to other people)

My customer service experience has improved ten fold

People seem to make a effort to explore my thought patterns and beliefs

Most importantly to me: I seem to have more discipline and energy, I find it easier to do what needs to be done in my own life and it’s easier to get help when I need it.

Tip Sheet: Business and Dining Etiquette

This post and any other later posts labeled as tips sheet come from a college website I found while searching around about jobs. I’m bringing it to you all to save you the hassle. Enjoy!

How you conduct yourself and treat others in a business or dining setting speaks strongly of who you are as a professional. Research worldwide tips and strategies before traveling as different cultures have different protocols.

General Tips

Use titles (Mr. Ms. Dr.), not first names until instructed to do so.  

Be on time or 5-15 minutes early. Earlier than that can be awkward and invasive.  

Prepare for meeting, developing an agenda if you are leading.  

Do not interrupt meeting agendas, but in a timely manner, be confident in concisely sharing on-topic ideas/opinions.

Do not get intoxicated at work functions.  

Do not use profanity or tell off-colored jokes.

Do not engage in office gossip.  

Bring a positive attitude and leave personal drama at home. 

Do not air work-related frustrations via social media (e.g. These people make me sick. #ISITFRIDAYYET)  

How to Approach a Group

Present yourself with confidence.

Smile and extend dominant hand.

State your name (and company).

Know how to introduce yourself (and company) in 15 to 30 seconds.

Avoid “closed” triads: two people facing shoulder to shoulder are likely having a private conversation.  

Do not fold your arms or put them in your pockets.

Greetings

Hi, Hey, Yo, What’s up?, What’s going on? are not appropriate.

Hello is appropriate.

Introducing Yourself

It is your duty to introduce yourself.

Look people in the eyes and smile in order to seem confident and approachable.

Name tags should be placed high on right shoulder.

When should you introduce yourself?

When you realize someone does not recognize you.

When attending a business or social gathering.

When seated next to someone.

When person introducing you forgets your name.

When it is a friend of a friend whom you are talking to.

Introducing Others

Use proper titles when introducing others.

Omit titles when introducing people of same rank and position.

Never introduce a co-worker/superior by first name.

Introduce person lowest on the totem pole to the one highest.

The name of the person of greater authority is spoken first.

This means you look at the most “important person” and say, “Ms. Important, I would like to introduce you to Mr. Student, an intern in our IT department. Mr. Student, this is Mr. Important, the director of technical marketing.”

When dealing with people outside the company, clients are more important than company employees, and hiring managers are more important than job seekers.

If you are seated while being introduced, stand to shake hands.

Have a firm handshake, but avoid death grips.

Tell something about the person whom you introduce.

During the Conservation

Learn how to make small talk.

Be current on domestic and international events. If you’re not and the topic is brought up, say something along the lines of “I’m not familiar with the topic but I would enjoy learning more about it.”

Know what events impact your company or client’s.

Ask questions that focus on other person, not you.

Do not interrupt and/or finish people’s sentences.

Avoid conversations about health or diet habits, cost of things, personal life, gossip, off-color jokes and controversial issues.

Don’t gaze around room in a conversation—it’s rude and makes other person feel insignificant.

Do not touch others unless you know them well.

Ending a Conversation

Do not just walk away if you see someone more interesting— ALWAYS make a closing statement before moving on:  

“Please excuse me. It was nice talking with you.”

“It was really a pleasure to meet you. I look forward to seeing you again soon.”

“I enjoyed talking with you. I hope to see you soon.”

Summarize, “Oh, it looks like you have a fascinating job and I wish you good luck on your project.”

If graceful disengagement doesn’t work, be more direct: “I see it is really getting late and I really must go,” then back up physically. As a last result, say a parting statement while you are shaking hands and saying good-bye.

Business Cards

Always have enough and carry in a case.

Should not be wrinkled, written on, outdated or dirty.

Present the card with the print facing the recipient.

Your name should be the largest print on the card.

Don’t write on business cards in front of others.

Don’t exchange business cards while dining.

Never pass them out like you are dealing cards.

It is polite to comment on card before putting it away rather than immediately stashing it in a pocket without looking at it

If someone offers you their business card, offer yours in return

Before offering your business card, first say, “May I give you my card?”

Do not force your card on anyone or offer it too early in a conversation

Let senior executives ask for your card. Do not offer it to them.

Meetings/Networking Events 

 It is polite to offer to pay if asked to a lunch/dinner meeting. However, whoever extends the invitation typically pays. 

Know why you are attending and who you want to meet. 

Bring business cards; Remember you represent your company. 

Do not carry a bag or notebook that fills your hands. 

Step to the right when you enter room, pausing to first observe.

Greet hosts first, if possible but do not monopolize their time. 

Introduce yourself to others, not just talking to people you know.

 Do not immediately head for the bar or food; don’t go hungry.

 Avoid foods that are messy or can’t be eaten in one bite. 

Hold food or drink in left hand to leave right hand open. 

Write a thank-you note within 24 hours. 

Work Relationships: 

Co-workers

Cooperate and develop a relationship of mutual support.

Focus on positive qualities and potential of co-workers (strengths, not weaknesses). 

Be friendly, but do not join a clique.

Spend time observing how people act, who performs well and who takes a positive view toward the job and organization. 

Beware of the gripers and avoid office gossip. 

Do not talk about co-workers behind their backs. 

Voice concerns, challenges and accomplishments.

 Remember that a peer may someday be your boss or you his. 

 Be nice, polite and friendly to everyone, including individuals who work outside of your department. 

Observe organization’s gift giving policy and be discreet when exchanging gifts if only exchanging with a few coworkers. Work Relationships: 

Supervisors 

 Approach tasks with a willing attitude. 

Enthusiastically complete “grunt” assignments. 

Demonstrate poise and maturity in everything you do. 

Ensure quality work is completed on-time. 

Supervisors are your ally, not your enemy. 

Supervisors train and develop; they aren’t best friends.

 Do not ask supervisor for personal and financial advice. 

 Cell Phones 

 Turn your phone off during meetings. 

Invest in a watch so you don’t check phone for time.

 Avoid answering in restaurants. If expecting important call, let those you are dining with know, and leave table to answer. 

In public, be aware of voice volume and move at least two arm lengths away from those around you (or out of the room). 

The people you are with should take precedence over calls. 

If you expect a call that can’t be postponed, alert your companions ahead of time.

Public phone conversations are not private. 

Email Etiquette 

 Craft a compelling subject line.

 General Dining Etiquette 

Do not order foods that are eaten with your hands.

 Pass food from left to right (counterclockwise). 

If asked for the salt or pepper, pass both. 

 Never season food before tasting it. 

 Food is served from the left, dishes removed from the right. 

Butters, spreads or dips should be transferred to your serving dish before spreading or eating. 

Do not ask for a “to-go box” unless it is an informal situation.  

For hard to scoop items, use bread, not your finger, to push items onto fork.  

If hot food is burning mouth, discretely drink something cool.

 Napkins belong in your lap. 

If you leave table, loosely fold your napkin (do NOT refold your napkin or wad it up) and place it beside your dinner plate. 

Meeting materials or briefcases should be left under your chair until it is time to discuss business.  

Do not ask to taste or offer to let others taste your food. 

Do not blow nose at the table. Politely excuse yourself. 

Casual Dining Exceptions 

 You may order foods that are eaten with your hands. 

 When sharing chips and salsa, you don’t have to transfer salsa to your plate, but do not double dip.   

Leaving a Tip 

 Fifteen to 20 percent of the bill total is customary, but for exemplary service, a greater percentage is accepted. 

For poor service, ask to speak to the manager; still tip. 

Place Setting Tips 

 General rule: use silverware from outside in as meal progresses. 

When finished, do not push plate away. Instead place fork and knife across the center of the plate, handles to the right.

Between bites, your fork and knife are placed on the plate, handles to the right, not touching the table.

The most important dating advice you will ever hear

Don’t do anything.

Seriously. That’s it. “Don’t do anything.”

As a woman, you just have to sit back and let him do what he wants.

He wants to meet you; he has to approach you. You say yes.

He wants to plan a first date; he has to ask you out in advance. You say yes.

He wants to kiss you; he has to make a first move. You say yes.

He wants to see you a second time; he calls the next day. You say yes.

He wants to check-in during the week to tell you he’s thinking of you; you take his calls. You say yes.

You don’t have to DO anything. Just see what he does, and say yes.

He wants to take you on a weekend away and introduce you to his friends. You say yes.

He wants to sleep with you; he offers a condom. You say yes.

He wants to commit to you and become exclusive. You say yes.

You see what I mean? You don’t have to DO anything. Just see what he does, and say yes.

If he doesn’t do anything, you have your answer.

This is the single simplest way to understand how to deal with men, and yet women drive themselves nuts.

You try to learn what “games” to play, or how to “figure men out”, or “how to make him commit” to you. It’s all bullshit. There’s nothing to know beyond what we’re DOING.

If we want to call, we’ll call. If we want to commit, we’ll commit. If we want to marry you, we’ll ask you. And if we don’t call, don’t commit, and don’t propose to you (all in a reasonable amount of time), then guess what? We’re not going to. We’re just going to continue with our happy, low-stakes status quo that you so generously allow.

Weekend Sugar Checklist:

Hi babes. I don’t personally ever schedule sugar dates for Saturdays - they’re for me, my hobbies, my friends, and just me. However, here is a checklist to keep your affairs in order for the upcoming week ☺️

For The Weekend:

Recenter Yourself - spend time with yourself, whether that’s going for a stroll or reading a book

Reconnect - spend time with your friends. Partake in group activities that connect you with a lot of people. But also, don’t forget to occasionally schedule some one-on-one time with a good friend, especially one you don’t see very often or that you have been missing lately

Beauty Maintenance: Face mask/hair mask - all that styling requires specific attention to make sure you’re treating yourself right

Workout - never take a weekend day off… you’re at your highest energy with the most free time, so schedule your rest days for during the week

Eat right - on weekends, unless you’re out at restaurant with friends you need to make sure you’re eating clean. Save your junk food for week days when you’re in a rush, spend the time and effort to make healthy veggie-oriented meals on weekends

Hair removal - either do it now, or have all necessary waxes scheduled appropriately

Schedule For Upcoming Week:

Plan each evening’s dates - I typically reserve 3 evenings for sugaring, and the remaining two week nights for myself. I try to play one friend-based event for the two nights and the other I’ll stay in and get homework/pampering done 🥰

Schedule POT Lunch date - try to do one a week… keeps you focused and developing new leads incase one of your current SDs starts to back out

Schedule future workouts - sign up for all the classes you want to do this upcoming week

Schedule Beauty Treatments - align your beauty routine, hair, nails, etc. that you get done professionally with your activities. Schedule your hair for post workouts, but for before important events. You should really see your entire week coming together smoothly at this point.

Meal prep - I don’t personally, but hey, some people are into it? What I do is I make sure I have enough healthy options that will take me through the week: vegan protein powders, fresh fruits, pre-cut veggies for snacking, and protein bars. 

In general, Saturday and the weekend is a great opportunity to reset yourself but to also look ahead. Make sure you’re scheduling and stay organized - sugaring is a lot of work and you need to balance all other aspects of your life too. Scheduling will keep you happier while also boosting your performance in various areas of your life ❤️

Happy Sugaring, SSL

Random Tip

Stop saying “finer things in life”, be greedy and say what you want. As long as you word it right it’ll sound so much better than that finer things bs.

Say things like

I’m looking for an adventurous man that wants to take me galabanting across Asia.

I have a refined palate, so I only drink the best wines/rums/whatever

I love being wined and dined by a true gentleman at (your city’s top restaurants).

I value quality over quantity which is why I have no problen slurging on high end brands (or products).

I have high expectations for myself as well as my partner.

I’m only attracted to sucessful, ambitious, financially stable men who know what they want from life.

Obvi these are example that can be changed and rewritten but if I see another “finer things in life” I’m going to scream. I promise you’ll get more interest if you simply state what you want rather than being vague.

Glow up tips/ideas

Here’s my little guide how to glow up in your life:

First, get your life together:

Organise and clean your home -Having clean home will make you feel better and lighter and therefore you will be more positive.

Have a life admin day -Write down all the stuff that needs to be done, all the appointments you need to get and everything that needs to be fixed. Then schedule in a day every month or every two weeks when you tick off these thing off your list.

Do your damn laundry

Create routines -They can be long and strict or short and very opened

Fight procrastination in all the ways you can

Take your mediaction and have regular health check ups

Now it’s time for mental health:

Make sure you eat and drink water regularly

Get a therapist if you feel like you need/want one

Practise your hobbies or find new ones

Listen to your favourite music

Meditate

Create a happy atmosphere for yourself -Buy plants and flowers, let your favourite music play in the background, let in as much ligh as you can.

Warm beverages

Be as positive as you can

Try to complain less

Don’t talk shit about people, especially not behind their back -You spread negative energy and hurt yourself in the process.

Say nice things to people, compliment them as much as you can -Being nice to poeple will affect your own mood for the better.

Talk about what you love, not what you hate

Get enough fresh air.

Glow up your mind!:

Read more books -Does not matter the genre

Watch movies and series

Learn new language -Even if it’s just a few words

Watch documents

Talk to people smarter than you

Try learning random fact every day

Find a new hobby

Think of ways to make your life better and help your surrounding -Minimalism? Zero waste? Vegetarian? It depends on you.

Find a new friend

Help people

And lastly the physical glow up:

Find out how much sleep you need and stick to it -Usually 8 hours are the norm

Play around with make up -You will fail and it might look wonky from the beginning. And maybe you won’t even like it. I want you to experiment.

Make sure to go make-up-less sometimes if you wear it often

Drink water -It won’t magically clear your skin completely but it will get better.

Wash your face in the morning and in the evening, but no soap if possible

Use as little skin products as you can -Sometimes less is more.

Lip balm

Eat vegetables every day -Every. single. day. It’s the best thing I have ever done for myself.

Eat oatmeal -It did wonders for my hair.

Stretch regularly

Exercise -Find something you have fun doing and do it as often as possible.

Avoid food with too much grease and sugar -You can have it but try to reduce it.

Prepare your outfit the night before -It gives you time to think about what you’ll wear and it’s nice to have it ready in the morning.

Get clothes you feel good and confident in

Get your dream hair colour! -Get crazy if you want

Learn to be comfortable with your body

Don’t shower every day -I know, I know… but listen… It’s actually much healthier for your skin to shower every other day and wash your hair even less. Plus it saves a lot of water.

Get a perfume -Have a scent

Get enough sun -You don’t have to be tan but getting sun on your skin is very healthy and it’s visible in other ways than tan.

Smile and spread joy

If you’re happy, show it -It’s contagious

Remember that beauty comes from within. That is why I put these tips in that order.

I hope I helped and have a great year!
