How to get a beautiful girl friend: Five Tips to Get a Nice Girl
1. Be Clean
This is the first thing every girl will pay attention to. Girls like macho men, who are firefighters or who do hard labour but, when it comes to romance, clean up yourself. Girls love the fresh smell of male body after a shower. Wear a good deodorant. No need to buy that strong smelling perfume at all.
2. Be Humorous
Girls love guys who have a sense of humour. Ever thought how a bald guy gets more girls than you? It is how you talk, more than how you look. Looks are less important if you are humorous. Read some jokes and one-liners. Tell some funny experiences and twisted tales from own experience. And there's only a fine line between self-depreciating humour and looking-stupid. Read jokes and share them with girls, they will fall for you.
3. Be Financially Secure
Girls give much preference to money. No, do not get me wrong, girls are not money-minded. They want to feel secure and want to have a long-term relationship. If you have a decent day-job and few assets (house or car), you prove that you are bankable. You promise girls that you are financially not broke and financial crisis cannot ruin a relationship.
4. Be Fit
Who is your dream girl? The fat girl who has a large tummy, right? Girls also have dream mean and they would like to have men who has six-pack abdomen . Why not? Start getting up early and exercise for god sake. Stick to a diet and fitness plan and get into shape. If you care for your body, you show that you care for your life. Fat boys don't get beautiful girls - etch it in your memory.
5. Be Smart
Being smart comes naturally if you become fit . With a confident mind, you can achieve whatever you like. You can bring in any girl into your relationship. Prepare for rejections. When you go looking for girls, you are bound to get some "NO"s. That is very good for you in a good way, who knows that girl would have been a terrible match for you. Always cheerful and humorous. Do not show you are desperate to get a girlfriend. Everything will fall in good place.
Do you want to know them all? There are guides available to teach exactly how you can be irresistibly attractive to girls. Read these guides, understand how men and women behave. Learn the best ideas and tips to approach a girl. If you are too shy to go out for girl-hunting, fear not. There are very good, trusted online personals sites such as Yahoo Personals where you can find your dream matches. Why did I say only trusted sites? You would not want to go through all the pains and disappointments if your ideal match turns out to be a robot or a spammer. Because, with the free dating sites, it has been found that 90% of the profiles are spams and who are waiting to rip off your money. So, go for trusted dating sites such as MSN personals or Yahoo Personals. They verify each and every profile first.
Best of luck to have a nice, beautiful girl friend. Married and bored?

Are You Afraid to Commit or Just Happily Snigle?
If the thought of being part of a committed relationship makes you cringe, you might be counter-dependent.
It may sound unusual, but it’s true: I’m afraid of commitment. Just the idea of being part of a committed relationship and all its “trappings” (i.e., moving out to the suburbs, getting married, and becoming dependent on another person in my day-to-day life) — makes me shudder. The possibility of being consumed by my passion for someone else? Absolutely terrifying.
Unfortunately, my commitment phobia is now affecting my relationship with an incredibly wonderful man.
Why is it that making a lifelong commitment, something Hollywood and the media have ingrained into women to be the ultimate goal of relationships, feels so frightening for some of us? Why does building a strong and impenetrable wall around our hearts feel so much safer than appearing vulnerable or needy to the opposite sex? It may be counter-dependency.
Most people are familiar with codependent couples’ clinginess and revolving caretaker roles in relationships thanks to talk shows, self-help books and the like. Counter-dependents, however, radiate aloofness and are driven to project an image that makes them seem wholly self-sustained. While most of us have probably never even heard of counter-dependency, in reality, it affects a large swath of society, according to Dr. Janae B. Weinhold, counselor and co-author of Counter-Dependency: the Flight from Intimacy and her co-author and psychologist husband, Dr. Barry K. Weinhold. “There are some people who cling and want a closeness, and then there are other people who push away, who avoid, who are just not comfortable with intimacy,” says Janae.
There is, of course, a difference between being happily single and counter-dependent. It’s a common assumption that all single people would be happier in a coupled state, but in modern society, that simply isn’t true. You can be happily single even when you’re not actively dating.
So how do you know whether you are counter-dependent or simply someone who is leading your life in a way that works for you? According to Dr. Linda Young, counseling psychologist, if you actively choose to avoid developing romantic relationships and have a list of reasons why it’s never going to work out for you, or find that in relationships your partner always wants more than you’re willing to give, that may be a sign of counter-dependency.
The Weinholds lay out some distinctive counter-dependent traits in their book, such as having trouble getting close to people and difficulty sustaining intimacy in romantic relationships. Other characteristics include:
Another hallmark of the counter-dependent, says Young, is an overwhelming desire to control your own destiny: “If you’re a person who pulls yourself up by your bootstraps, who wants to be in as much control over your destiny as possible, you may also be a counter-dependent.”

- Having limited ability to feel emotions in regards to romantic relationships (such as justified anger or sadness)
- Having a tendency to say no to new ideas from your partner
- Feeling anxiety while forming close relationships
- A need for perfection
- Being afraid of letting others control you
- Being consumed by the needs of your partner
- Refusing to ask for help
- Becoming easily bored
- Needing to constantly seek out new thrills
- Having a tendency to work long hours during the week and on weekends
Another hallmark of the counter-dependent, says Young, is an overwhelming desire to control your own destiny: “If you’re a person who pulls yourself up by your bootstraps, who wants to be in as much control over your destiny as possible, you may also be a counter-dependent.”
