Alright, you know I'm not a doctor. So this isn't going to be about how to get over a hangover.
At least not the kind that's caused by guzzling too many brewskis or "Jager Bombs" the night before, that is.
BUT...it is indeed Saturday morning for most of you reading this. And if you went out on the town last night with the goal of meeting some women but came up empty handed, I fully understand that you're probably still sick to your stomach about it and your head is spinning.
You could argue that THAT kind of "hangover" is even worse than the alcohol-induced type. After all, you're disgusted in about every way possible...physically, emotionally, even your very soul is suffering.
Well here's the deal. If you mope around your apartment this morning feeling sorry for yourself and playing video games, you most likely are going to be no better off this afternoon than you are this morning.
And what's worse, that can only mean your "mojo" stands about zero chance of improving in time for tonight either.
Yep, you've got another night out ahead of you...and you've got to embark on your Saturday night adventure with a full tank rather than running on fumes.
Not that you...ahem...really need to wait until you go out tonight to fix the "meeting women" issue at play here.
Enough already. Here are five great ways to get out of the "morning after" funk you're in this morning and kick its carcass to the curb:
1) Get Cleaned Up And Look Sharp
The first order of business when you feel like you've been less than successful with MOTOS (members of the other sex) the night before is to give your sense of self-respect the quickest and easiest "jolt" possible.
So go ahead. Take a long hot shower, shave, and get your act together ASAP this morning. It's hard to stay lazy and let "analysis paralysis" get the best of you when you're all awake and fresh like that. It's literally a new day.
And while you're at it, pick something killer out of the closet and look good today. Either that or put on your hiking or biking gear.
Why? BINGO...it's hard to stay cooped up at home all day when you're all dressed and ready to leave. You won't believe the psychological effect it has on waking you up and getting you outside.
2) Get Out Of The House
I sort of telegraphed this one, huh?
But yeah, man. Go hit the trails. Go hit the batting cage. Get your blood flowing doing something active that you LIKE doing.
Heck, do ANYTHING that involves getting out of the house. Staying hidden in your cave can only work against your psyche.
3) Hit The Gym
Sure, this still falls under the classification of getting out of the house, but with a decidedly different twist that sets it apart.
When you go to the gym, you're making a conscious decision to believe in yourself and improve yourself.
What's more, if you make your workout a good strenuous one you'll release endorphins that'll give you a welcome and much-needed natural high. Sweet.
Oh...and there are usually a bunch of women there who are "well fit", as y'all in the UK like to say.
And guess what, troops? If THEY are there on a Saturday morning with you, you can pretty much bet that they weren't out all night on an amazing date with some guy.
Just use some logic there...and go introduce yourself once you're feeling that lift to your overall state of mind.
4) Run Every Possible Errand You Can Think Of
After you've gotten some physical exercise and are already feeling somewhat better, it's a great idea to knock out that "to do" list.
Not only will being productive feel better than doing absolutely nothing, but if you run this right you are going to have the opportunity to meet TONS of women...assuming you allow yourself to.
The supermarket is PRIME real estate on Saturday mornings and early afternoons. Every unattached woman (and her roommate) are out stocking up for the week.
Meanwhile, if your bank is anything like mine then it's plainly obvious that some guy with really good taste hires all the tellers. Go deposit your paycheck and make conversation.
In case you're not getting the larger, more meaningful message here there are other places to meet amazing women than at a bar or club on a Friday night. Start training your brain TODAY to see every moment of every day as possibly holding the legit opportunity to meet women.
5) Get Online
If you've got a profile on Match.com or OKCupid and are NOT writing to women this morning then let's just say you're blowing what could be the most GOLDEN opportunity of all to blast through being bummed out by last night.
In fact, this fifth suggestion really is the true "silver bullet" in the whole list.
When you log in to your dating site of choice, do a quick search for women who are "online now"...as in right then and there.
From there, let your fingers do the typing.
There's no need to mention how badly last night went for you when writing them. Save it and focus on having a positive, lightweight attitude instead.
Be a man who LEADS women to be playful and fun. Don't be a downer, as tempting as it may be to slip in that direction
Just sit back, relax and revel in the thought that obviously the women whose profiles land in your search are not feeling too solid about their own dating lives this morning either. Soon you'll have discovered why Saturday mornings are MONEY when it comes to online dating.
Oh...and don't kid yourself. You'll be amazed by the hotties who are online this morning right there with you. Dating frustration is "equal opportunity", regardless of how high quality you and/or the women you might meet are.
Now that I've shared that list with you, I'm going to admit to you point-blank that every one of the action items on it probably occurred to you as common sense. I'm not all that worried about that...after all, if you're still reading this that can only mean you're not exactly DOING any of them just yet.
So yeah, man...even if you've actually gone your entire life thus far never putting any of what I've just offered to the test, go for it.
Get out from behind the computer and go get 'em, Tiger!

Can drama help a relationship? Most couples would unanimously agree that the answer is no. Yet, believe it or not, some couples use drama as a form of excitement in their relationship. They get a rush from the occasional argument and enjoy the make-up sex that follows.
But drama does more harm than good in a marriage. What started out as a spark of drama can quickly turn into embarrassing public arguments, using intimacy as a bargaining chip, and freezing one another out.

Recently, I got into a conversation with some friends over dinner about the subject of "attraction".
After several minutes of discussion, a somewhat amazing revelation hit me. Each respective person at the table had a different working definition for the word.
One person seemed to believe it was synonymous with "physically good looking".
Someone else was talking as if it meant all those things that matter other than physical looks, and...-

Most of us as guys get a raging case of "Tunnel Vision Disorder" when it comes to getting a woman we like to go out on a date with us.
We lock on to that as a goal, and it's all we care about.
As such, sometimes we end up going on dates with women we should never have agreed to, and we end up "hornswaggled".
"Hoodwinked". "Bamboozled". "Flim-flammed". TRICKED.
We might even fall into the trap...-

Okay, here's a quick exercise for you that should be fun.
Close your eyes and fantasize about something or someone.
Got a mental picture rolling? Okay good...
I have no idea how you're reading this with your eyes closed, but never mind that. By now I've made my point, which is this...
My bet is that regardless of what you just fantasized about, it distinctly involved something pleasurable.
In fact, you could probably forget the rest...-

How big a deal is the whole idea of approaching women without fear of rejection? Well, it's pretty massive.
So much so that almost invariably whenever I write about anything other than that, I get at least one e-mail or comment to the effect of, "Yeah, but...you didn't tell us how to meet women and deal with rejection."
Well, this time I don't plan on getting any such messages. That's because today we're going to hit that most sensitive of subjects.
