I'll hit you up, okay?
Alright.
Have a good night.
Never abruptly just lean in and try to kiss a girl.
I hate that.
Just like my grandma, I believe that everything on the internet is obviously true.
And as we all know, if you're looking for love or trying to work out problems in your relationship,
the best place to turn to is undoubtedly TikTok.
So let's see how we can improve our relationship.
This is also the first time we have both going in blind.
We don't know what we're watching.
Because we now have a producer helping out.
Brandon, say hello.
Hello.
Making effort and trying to prove yourself to a girl on a date is exhausting and often disappointing.
What if I told you there is an easier way to go about this?
Simply by making her-
Let's see.
My shtick with these like dating advice things that generalize women is that they're generalizing women.
They're like stereotyping like every woman is exactly the same.
So if you do this one thing, it's gonna work.
That's really deep.
Is it?
Yeah.
I had to say it.
We're filming this on International Women's Day.
You might say something like,
if you pick a good dessert for me, I might award you with a second date.
Oh my gosh.
That's terrible.
Oh my gosh.
Oh, I'm just choking on cringe right now.
I might reward you with a second date.
Don't do that.
What would you do if we were like on our first date and I was like-
If you pick a good dessert-
I'll reward you with a second date.
I'd be so put off.
A lot of these things are like play games with the person to like create the desire.
Yeah, or chase or something like that.
But the chase needs to be like you chasing, you putting effort to chase the person,
not you putting an effort to try and make the person chase you.
What else is he going to reward her with?
Like it's just, oh my gosh.
Dating in 2022.
Don't do it, really.
Celibacy or-
Tell me about it.
Wait, what?
Celibacy or lesbianism are my two suggestions.
Why you want to know?
This is why.
One date, guy brings his mother.
I'm not kidding.
Mother on a first date.
Very strange.
Second date, guy takes off his prosthetic arm and holds it in the air.
I can't go back to that restaurant now because that's how they know me.
The girl that the gated, the guy that took his arm off.
How about the guy that showed me a trick?
He said, watch this and popped his glass eye out at the table.
Guess what?
Dropped it in a cup of water.
So that that shook me up.
Or there's the penises that come out of dinner.
We don't need to get into that.
How about the guy that sneezed and had his hairpiece lift off his head and turn sideways?
That's always a treat.
Oh my gosh.
That was so funny.
At the start, I was like, where is she going with this?
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
Doesn't require a lot for guys to love a girl.
Having a pretty face, smelling good, and being feminine is usually more than enough.
Is that true?
He's saying for a guy to love a girl, which is wrong.
For a guy to be intrigued by a girl initially, sure.
But to really love a girl.
To fall in love with someone, there's just so much more depth.
Girls are only able to fall in love with guys who are able to take them on an emotional rollercoaster
and cause them to feel happy, sad, excited, and anxious just by talking or not talking to them.
This is terrible advice.
It's the same like playing games, and it just doesn't need to be like that.
The part where he says, and anxious is such a curse.
To fall in love with this is like, wait, what?
Nothing like some good old anxiety to make you fall in love.
When she says,
You're such a player.
You must do this with every girl.
Most guys would say, me?
I'm not a player.
No, no.
I wouldn't do that.
I haven't barely been on any dates recently.
When you explain yourself like this, it makes you look weak
You are already in a terrible position if that's what the girl is saying to you.
Instead, you have two good options.
Number one, agree and exaggerate.
A player? Hell, I'm Kobe Bryant out here.
How could you tell?
Option two, you put it back on her.
Wow, I was about to say the same thing about you.
The point is, you take whatever she said, and you kind of make it feel ridiculous.
You guys can laugh about it.
Initially, I just think it's not that deep.
To really think about like, oh no, you can't say that.
But instead, you have to be like confident and funny.
But, how do we like, kind of agree?
Sure, be funny and like, play it back.
Like, it just seemed like he was flirting with him.
I wouldn't say in that scenario is necessarily the best one to be like,
yeah, I'm such a player, dude.
I'm Kobe.
Yeah.
I had a lot of fun tonight, honestly.
Me too.
Did you?
Yeah.
We should do this again sometime.
Yeah, I'm down.
I'll hit you up, okay?
Alright, bye.
Have a good night.
Never abruptly just lean in and try to kiss a girl.
I hate him.
He's like, I had a fun time.
He's like, did you all enjoy?
Did you?
Here's some more fun.
Instead, what you want to do is move in closer slowly and then notice,
is she comfortable with you at that distance as you get closer?
I had a really good time.
No, wait.
Yeah, I had a really good time tonight.
Oh, me too.
I had a really good time tonight.
Yeah, me too.
It started all good.
The worst times to text her.
We back, baby.
We back.
After a first date.
It doesn't matter if you had a horrible first date or a great one.
Texting right away after the date is simply acting needy and a recipe for disaster.
Or it's letting the girl know that you're interested.
And thinking of her.
And had an emotional connection with her.
And that you'd like to see her again.
Even when I leave a group of friends,
I like to text them afterwards and be like, thanks again, that was so much fun.
You know what's so funny about that though?
I think when we first started dating, we would hang out with people
and they would text us or I would text them and do that.
And I think you thought I was strange at first.
Really?
I remember that being a conversation that we had.
Like maybe that's not a thing in Australia, like after you hang out.
And now I do it.
Now you do it. Welcome to America.
There are three hidden spots on a woman's body that will make her go crazy.
Where's my notebook?
Ear.
This is a very sensitive area, so be careful.
Focus on small kisses and light breaths.
Neck.
Also very sensitive.
Make sure you are gentle and soft.
Inside of the arm.
When you're cuddling or just chilling, don't forget to tickle.
The inside of your arm.
Tickle, tickle, tickle.
Stop!
Three powerful ways to make him weak and crazy about you.
This one's for you.
Okay, I'll take this.
Maybe there's something that you're really good at.
Show him how good you are at that thing.
And he's going to put you high up on a pedestal
and he's going to want to chase you and court you.
You're so talented.
Power couple over here.
I can't handle this guy because of his accent.
Not only do I ask a girl to split the bill on the first date,
I take her to my uncle's restaurant and I make sure her order comes out incorrectly.
That way I can see how she treats the waitstaff and see what kind of person she is.
That's unnecessary.
That's very unnecessary.
The first part, just pay for the girl's dinner.
The second part, let it happen naturally if it happens.
Don't stage a fake scenario.
That's so weird.
I think it was just hilarious how specific he was.
Ask her to split the bill with you, then go to your uncle's restaurant.
When dating, I'm a big proponent of letting the crazy out very early.
You have to be unfiltered and feral.
Feral?
Big reason.
We are censoring ourselves constantly.
Whether it's the length of your text because you want to seem effortless and cool and short-texted, no.
I did that.
What did you do?
When I first DM'd you and I sent like a long message and then I was like,
that's too long, that sounds weird, and I thought I deleted it.
And then I sent the exact same thing, just like, I summarized it into one sentence.
But then you ended up getting fired.
If TikTok was around then you wouldn't have had this problem.
I know.
You're just a fun girl.
And fun girls don't apologize for being fun.
You are a fun girl, Jess.
Thank you.
And fun girls don't apologize for being fun girl.
Don't play dumb.
There's this stereotype that men are attracted to unintelligent women.
Globally, intelligence is ranked as more desirable in a long-term mate than looks.
That line, in a long-term mate.
A lot of the other advice is for very short-term.
Yeah.
So here's a little tip to make that new guy you're seeing go completely crazy
and be even more infatuated with you.
And that is quite simply to not be too available.
So it's the early stages of dating, you're seeing a lot of each other,
you're communicating a lot, and he's thinking about you a lot.
And he's beginning to think, okay, it's a given that I'm going to get a date this weekend.
So he proposes a date and you say, sorry, I can't do this weekend, I've got other plans.
Or sorry, I need to see my friend this weekend.
Or sorry, I need a bit of me time this weekend.
Hmm.
This is confusing.
It's one thing if you have plans and say, sorry, I have prior commitments.
It's another thing when he finds out that you lied to him about having plans to make him jealous.
Who would want that, though?
All dudes.
Like me.
I just like have never been a fan of the whole games thing.
It feels like, I don't know, like...
I'm going to formulate my opinion as I go along.
So here's a breakdown.
Men are always trying to, at least like me, I'm always trying to be involved in some sort of game.
Like now, that game being my work, essentially.
Like that's where I'm putting my gamifying energy on how to strategize and build or whatever.
I'm not trying to play games on my what.
Like there's energy where you can place things in that vein.
And I feel like if you're doing that with relationships, there's probably somewhere else where you can transfer that sort of brain energy into something that's productive and not messing with people's lives and emotions.
I think if you genuinely like someone, there's no point in playing games.
I think it's healthy to be self-aware, to not be maybe too clingy early on.
But don't play games and like, if I like you, I'm not going to say, sorry, I have plans.
Yeah.
He feels less secure.
He's less sure of what's going to happen.
That's always a good thing.
Make the person that you're interested in feel less secure.
Yeah, like they're losing a potential great partner.
That's a lie.
They get bored.
Because as soon as you start being submissive and nice, you don't want to argue.
You want to keep the peace.
He gone.
I'm still here, baby.
And guess who he's with?
The crazy girl.
And he's telling you, oh, I want to go to be nice.
No, he don't want to go to be mean.
Maybe you're like looking into the wrong man.
If when you're being sweet and stuff, he goes to a crazy woman.
Like, I don't know.
I'm like, maybe he wasn't right for you anyway.
Yeah, I really don't think we struck gold in this video like I thought we would.
No.
But if you do want some gold advice on relationships, click the video that's on Jess's face.
Bye.
