Five Topics
Think of five different topics you would enjoy talking about, as well as someone of the opposite sex would enjoy talking about. Come up with an open ended question to start you off into that topic. Ex. “What is your relationship situation?” for getting into a talk about relationships.
Books, Fitness, Movies, Plans for success (wow I only have 4)
someone of the opposite sex.. how about... The queen on the movie 300, she was cool.
Emotionally Relating
Make a list of every positive emotion you can think of. For each emotion write down a short headline to a story, moment, or experience, when you felt that emotion.
Okay. Give love get love, when I have quiet, without distraction. Less humor more tumors, when I seriously relax or am not feeling guilty about failing about something. Without understanding, how can you understand? ->measure twice, cut once
Story Telling
Write down a story from your experience. Headline it, add emotions, details, and tell it from the “I” perspective. Now take that story and add more emotions and details. Remove extraneous facts and explain how and why you felt those emotions during that time. Keep adding more details and emotions until the story is so expressive you know there isn’t anything else you felt that is not in the story.
I'll add this later. In fact I will keep adding and changing my post, or updating this if I can't edit it.
Deal-Breakers
What are the things about the opposite sex that are deal-breakers for you? A deal-breaker is any character trait, action, or belief that makes them immediately disqualified from ever being your romantic partner. Here are a few I want you to add to your list
1. Physically abusive
2. Verbally abusive or insulting
3. Lies more than once about anything important. (Or lies frequently about anything)
4. Unwillingness to forgive
5. Unwillingness to look at life in a positive way
