Gary Chapman's The 5 Love Languages
Gary Chapman's The Five Love Languages For Couples is a popular book, but it has some flaws. The first is that it does not adequately reflect the impact of these languages. His book, while it contains valuable information and a lot of useful advice, also downplays the importance of sacrifice and the need to heal a toxic relationship. In the end, the concept is a useful one, but it must be applied with caution. If you're in an abusive relationship, this book may not be helpful to you.
Don Miguel Ruiz Jr. 'The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work'
Don Miguel Ruiz Jr.'s new book focuses upon making love a habit. It also teaches how to bring more intimacy into your relationships. Intimate relationships make it difficult - our insecurities as well as personal demons can prevent us from experiencing true love. Don Miguel's love approach is to transform from conditional love to unconditional love. Unconditional Love leads to greater freedom, deep intimacy, great honesty, and greater freedom. It is the only way to achieve true happiness in a loving relationship.
Dr. John M. Gottman's bid for connection
Dr. John M. Gottman’s theory on quality relationships is based on the notion of bids. Bids, in essence, are requests to be connected. They can be very small or very large, verbal, nonverbal (serious or funny), or a combination of both. It's not surprising that the bidding process has been deemed one of the most important aspects of successful relationships.

You should have a plan. You don't have to just show up at the house and hope he takes you out. Have a plan. If you don't know what you'll wear, make sure you bring something appropriate. Also, if you haven't planned anything else, don't forget to pack a small gift (a bottle of wine would be perfect). You won't feel like your trying too hard.

Be authentic. There's nothing worse than being around someone you don't like. The top priorities should be showing interest in the other person and being yourself.
-
Dress sensibly. Ladies who dress well are admired by men. Wear something that makes you feel confident but lets him see that you care about your appearance.
-
Talk about the music. Another topic that can be discussed is music. Ask him what music he likes and what songs keep him happy. It's easy to talk about a song when you share a common experience together.
-
Before you go, know where you are going. Do your research online, and talk to people who have been on similar dates. You want to have fun while enjoying the outdoors.
-
Keep it light. Talking about serious topics at dinner is not a good idea. Also, avoid talking about religion or politics. These topics can lead to heated conversations.

Smile often. Smiling is a sign of confidence and warmth. Smiling helps you relax and emits positive vibes.

Please share your stories. Tell him about a funny story that happened to you recently. Tell him about a fascinating topic that caught you attention.

Pay attention to his eyes. Eye contact is important as it shows your respect for him. When you look him directly in the eye, you convey your interest in him and let him know that you're listening.

Make the most of every opportunity. Try to find opportunities to hold hands or touch each other. These simple gestures can help you build trust between your two.

Pay attention. Talking is great, listening is even better. Listening to him shows you care and are interested in his thoughts.

Enjoy yourself. It doesn't work. You're doing this for a reason. To get closer to God. However, it shouldn't feel like work. Have fun. Laugh as much as possible and enjoy every moment.

Follow-up. Send him a short text message after you have met. Thank you for taking the time to meet and letting him know he was nice to you. Let him know you would like to continue the conversation.

Keep your eyes open for the positive. You don't have to dwell on the negatives of your first date. Instead, think about the positives: You got to meet someone new, you had quality time with him and you learned more about his interests.

Stay open-minded. You don't have to be closed off to men because you only have one relationship. You must be open to allowing a man into your life.
