Dealclosers. Black and white. When you meet in person. Do you like me, or not. Open the door and date ONLY me to see where it goes, or close the door and say "I am not into you".

So, I have to say HONESTY, bold and to the point.

For example, I like a girl to say:

"Our conversation on the phone was great, but now that I have met you in person, I know there is no chemistry at all. Sorry I wasted your time, let me pick up the check".

or

"Our conversation on the phone was great, and now that we have met in person I would like to see you again and see where this path leads us."



You should add after, " and see where this path leads, us."...

", let me pick up the check."

And since you are in a relationship, can we assume that you have it all?

So many great dealmakers have been listed already and I agree.

Also, when he is willing to admit to his flaws and share things about his life that might have been unhappy or embarrassing times--trusting in me to be vulnerable and not just show me the good stuff.

Oh, found one. Some of you won't like what this page says.

Althouse: Extreme male brain.
Hi FengShui - its me again!

Your link was spot on! It also could explain my highly functioning Aspy.

My dealmaker: a highly developed intelligent sense of humor (and looking completely dumbstruck happy when he is around me doesn't hurt either).

Are you stalking me?

Just kidding! I really wouldn't mind if you did, actually.

Maybe a good thing, the way the economy is going.

Soon, we will have 4 people working 120 hours / week at Goldman Sachs, each worth $2 trillion, and 300 million people out of work, each mad at someone.

I’m thinking, it makes sense to be armed.
