Rules for a second date

Okay, you really like this guy and the first date went well. And he's called up asking for another one. But how do you make it work? It's confusing, right? Will he expect something for the money he's spending on you? Or should you go dutch, just so that you make it clear that you want to take it slow.

Men are really easy to read, so remember these second date rules to know what you should expect.

Show interest

Most people are aware of the fact that it does take two or more dates to really know a person. Make sure you have your dates cleared for a week after the first date, so you can go out with him again. If a man wants a second date he'll call back in 24 hours to three days.

If you have a common friend who set you up, let him/her know how much you liked the first one, and that you are looking forward to the second one.

Take charge

Of course, no one's stopping you from taking the initiative, if you are interested then go for it by asking him on a second date. But do make sure you've read him right and detected an interested on his part - it prevents a lot of embarrassment.

Don't jump to conclusions

Just because he asked for a second date doesn't mean he's ready to jump into marriage! Take it easy and don't share such personal feelings so fast yet.

Get to know each other

Find out his likes, dislikes and convey your own. This way you can check to see what your common interests are. Believe me, one or two dates are not enough to find out everything about each other, no matter how strong the attraction!

Hope these rules help and your second date translates into many more!

Online dating site for beautiful people!

An online dating site exclusively for beautiful people is set to be launched on a global platform, despite criticism.

Beautifulpeople.com was first launched in Denmark and ever since has opened in several countries including Britain, the United States and Japan.

The site insists applicants must submit a photograph of themselves to allow existing members to decide through an online rating system whether they are attractive enough to be admitted.

“Is it shallow to want to be with someone you’re attracted to? If you are in a bar or a club and you are going to approach someone, you’ll approach someone you’re attracted to. There’s nothing shallow in that,” the Telegraph quoted Greg Hodge, 34, managing director of the site as saying.

“People are fed up wasting time and money meeting unattractive people on the net,” he added.

The website also promises successful applicants “glamorous parties, a jet-set global network” and “potential contracts from top modelling agencies”.

Date 12 times for a perfect mate!

Want to find your one and only? Well, then the best chances of finding the perfect partner is to date at least 12 people before even thinking of marriage. That's the calculation of a leading mathematician. According to Clio Cresswell, singles can increase their chances of finding true love by rejecting at least 12 potential partners before settling down. Cresswell's theory, which is based on statistical assessment, claims the chances of divorce is generally very high unless singles date at least a dozen time before they get hitched.

"In Australia, the divorce rate is about 35 per cent for first marriages," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted her as saying. She explained: "Now, if you were buying a DVD player and I told you it had a 35 per cent chance of breaking down, you might think twice about making that purchase.

"But we still insist on going into marriage with this belief that our partner is the one for us and we have a 100 per cent chance of success.

"According to my principle, you have to reject at least 12 people to increase your chance of finding your long-term partner. If you do that, you raise the chance of making it work to 75 per cent."

The senior lecturer in the School of Mathematics and Statistics, in the University of Sydney, has explained her theory in her new book Sex and Mathematics, apart from introducing it into her tertiary classes.

However, she has a grievance that mathematics is not liked by a lot of people. She said: "I think it's so sad that the wider community does not embrace mathematics as much as it could. Mathematics can be fun." (ANI)
