What Do Men and Women Want?


*

Invincible
in Love


Co-ed Dating
& Relationship Group

*

“The tactful truth about men and women.”

To successfully negotiate your relationships
with the opposite sex, you first need to understand
what motivates them.

Join other single men and women committed to honest cross talk between the sexes in a safe space for the discussion of issues that come up in the context of dating and forming new relationships. Meet other members of the opposite sex, learn about their closely held opinions and desires, and get to know them over time.

Find out what men and women REALLY want. Want some honest feedback about questions that come up in your dating life? Get feedback about your blind spots. See what may be standing in your way of getting what you want out of your dating relationships. Learn why you shouldn’t keep all your “emotional eggs” in one basket, and how to keep that from happening. Learn simple things you can do to build your “dating self-esteem.”

Through the sharing of our experiences, hard-won collective wisdom, and questions that arise in the course of our dating relationships, this group will help you successfully navigate the pursuit, the capture, and the cherishing of the objects of your affection, and have more power in your relationships — to be invincible in love. We address topics from the practical
to the profound, including these and more:

27 Things you can do to capture men’s/women’s hearts
The key components to a lasting relationship
What’s dating life like for the opposite sex?

Why a man should pay on the first date — even if

Should a woman play “hard to get”?
Honesty’s always the best policy, right?
