“In this episode…”
…we are talking all about the WORST dating advice
Teaser Bullets
by the end of this episode you’ll learn:
- the thing many women believe about “why he didn’t call”
- why “waiting it out” is a bad idea
- and the piece of advice that is both the best AND worst we’ve ever heard
Describe the problem
…Everyone loves to give advice. The problem is, a lot of it is bad. Even our well-intentioned friends can completely steer us down the wrong path. So today, we’re getting that all out of the way with some of the worst advice from the experts, and the worst advice both YOU and the Relations Podcast team have ever heard.
Worst Advice
Women
- Patti Stanger, Millionaire Matchmaker
- ““I had to find a diet that would kick me back into dating shape, because I know that I can’t date at size 8. I have to date at size 2. And it’s just a fact of nature. Go get your injections and your chemical peels. You gotta look good to attract a man.””
- From The Rules
- On marriage: Close the deal-Rules women do not date men for more than two years. If you’ve followed The Rules, your man probably loves you and wants to marry you. Your problem is not if he marries you, but when! If it’s been more than a year, see less of him and think about dating others. You’ve already spent more than a year waiting for him to propose; do you have another year to wait?
- Listener @LCTraveler: “Maybe he’s not calling you because he’s shy. You should definitely call him.”
- Listener @amirammikhail: “All you need is love.” (“Respect, also. And honesty. All good things.”)
- Listener @raiju: “You might just meet Mr. Right because he was looking at your boobs.”
- Listener Darla on FAcebook: “If you are smart, boys will be afraid of you. But don’t pretend not to be smart so boys will like you. Just be yourself.” And what? Maybe some loser will come along and you can “settle” for him because he’s the one not intimidated by a strong woman?
Men
- Buy a gift Many dating advice tips suggest that a man should buy a woman flowers on their first date. Old-fashioned and these days, counterproductive.
- Maintain your distance on a second date. You might be really pleased to see them again but don’t tell them that or they’ll think you are desperate (apparently)
- Listener @primesuspect: ““Just grab her and kiss her deeply and tell her you love her and you want it to work out and she’ll come around”.
- Listener @zipsix: “My mom told me to be nice to girls. Took me three decades to unlearn that one.”
- Listener Joe from Facebook: ““Just wait, She’ll come around…”…The fuck?”
- Listener Jason from Facebook: “Always treat a queen like a whore and a whore like a queen.”

Segment #2
General
Play hard to get
Keep on truckin’ (this pertains to the advice to keep dating and dating and dating even if it’s not working…it’s okay to give yourself a break)
Listener @Ashique_71 “best and worst: be yourself”
- Listener Marc from Facebook: “Stop looking and it’ll just happen”
- Several Listeners from Facebook: “Lose weight or no one will like you.”
- Listener James from Facebook: “You need to find someone to be complete.”
ERY and SJS?
SJS Worst
Don’t shave your legs and wear gross underwear if you don’t want to have sex right away.
ERY Worst
- Wait 48 hours before calling/texting after a date
- Don’t cook for him until you’re married – “No title, no chicken,” Tionna Tee Smalls, author of the gruesomely titled,“Men Love Abuse: The Guide to Losing the Nice Girl Image & Getting the Man You Want,” advised in an interview with S2S Magazine. “You don’t cook for a guy that you’re dating. You don’t know nothing about this guy to be sitting here and cooking for him. He needs to earn that. If he wants you to cook for him, he’ll make you his girl.” It’s like the old saying goes, why buy the cow when you can get the chicken cooked for free.
