Finding the confidence to date

1.) Trust.

2.) Love.

3.) Respect.

4.) Not being judgmental.

5.) Like Yourself & Your Partner. If you can't do both those things, then the relationship will fail for sure.

6.) Good communication is essential and healthy to a successful relationship. Be open and honest on how you feel about things and remember always listen in return (failure to listen can really damage a relationship).

7.) Accept that you can't solve everything. Sometimes some things just simply can not be resolved. So when that happens learn to accept it and move on.

8.) Set aside time for one another. While work schedules and other family events can often make our schedules hectic. It's important that when were in a relationship that we set aside time for one another by simply going to the beach or going to dinner or doing an activity that both you and your partner are able to do together. This will build a lot of happiness in the relationship.

Three things to remember when dressing for first date with herpes

Your first date with herpes is an important one and everyone knows first impressions last. So when picking out your first date outfit, keep in mind these things. Dress appropriately for the situation. If you are meeting for coffee dress casual. If you are going to a nice restaurant then more of a formal wear is in order. Do not show to much whether it be skin or cleavage. A little skin goes a long way and leave a lot to not only imagine but to anticipate. If you show all of your goods right of the bat then there's nothing left to look forward to. Last but not least the most IMPORTANT thing to add to your first date ensemble is CONFIDENCE. When a woman has confidence it shows. Be secure in not only what your wearing but in yourself. Know that you are the catch and what type of woman you are and what you have to offer and that is the sexier than a black skimpy dress can ever be.

Good luck ladies.
