Article: You can do these in passing, at the end of a date, while you're watching a movie, whenever the point is that they don't have to be saved for when you're already making out. They can, however, indicate that you're interested in doing a little more. Ears are an erogenous zone for both sexes, and the light pressure of your breath will probably feel good. Saying the right things will also turn her on. Try something like: "I couldn't stop thinking about you today". Lightly brush the back of your fingers over the side of her face. Bonus points if you can lock eyes with her at the same time.https://psychcentral.com/lib/the-power-of-touch/ You can gently run your thumb over her hairline if your arm is already around her shoulders, or offer to give her a neck rub. Keep your motions slow and light. Always be confident to make the first move; hold her hand. If you're holding hands, lightly stroke the inside of her wrist or her palm. A few slow kisses on the inside of the wrist could work, too. The scalp is a sensitive area for most people, and the light (repeat: light, not hard) tugging that comes from you playing with her hair will feel nice. Run your fingers through it, twirl it, or stroke it. If you're fairly sure it won't be unwelcome, try laying a hand on the top of her thigh. This works best if you're both sitting down. Let it rest there lightly. If she seems receptive, you can try slowly moving your thumb back and forth over her leg, keeping the rest of your hand where it is.

Problem: Article: Ask them questions about your relationship so you know what they expect from you as a girlfriend. Even if you're worried it'll be an awkward conversation, remember that talking openly will keep extremely awkward and uncomfortable situations from happening in the future. For example, you might ask, "Do you think we should plan to go on a date every weekend?" or "How often do you think we should talk on the phone?" A relationship is all about communication, so speak openly about what you're thinking and feeling. It will also open the door for them to share their thoughts and feelings with you, which will strengthen your relationship. For instance, if you're feeling upset about something at home, you might say something like, "I feel kind of depressed because my parents have been really mad at each other all week. Do your parents fight a lot?" Don't say things you don't mean (like "I love you") just because you think it's what a girlfriend should do. Be honest about your feelings! Don't think you have to share all of your deepest darkest secrets with them. If you really trust them, share away! But if you have any doubts, keep it to yourself.
Summary: Talk openly about any expectations the two of you have. Share your thoughts and feelings with the person you're dating.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There are acrylic paints designed to adhere to leather products, including shoes. You can buy them at your local craft store. These paints go on with a brush for a smooth and lasting finish. Your other option is to use spray paint purchased from a hardware store. Choose a spray can with the smallest nozzle possible to minimize over-spraying. While spray painting your shoes is easy, it won't allow you to get very detailed. Spraying works best when you are painting your entire shoes a single color. Remember to remove the shoe strings before you paint. This is a type of acrylic paint made specifically for fabric painting. It is applied with a brush and is quite durable. It also comes in a wide variety of colors, even with glitter options. Another plus is that it usually doesn't crack after drying. You can also use fabric paint for leather or vinyl shoes. However, you have to extensively sand the surface of the shoe down almost to its fabric base or the paint will not adhere. You can buy paint markers at most art supply or craft stores. They come with a variety of tip sizes from super thick to ultra skinny. It's usually a good idea to get a number of markers in the same colors, so that you can experiment. You'll also want to test out the paint itself, as some are thicker in consistency. If you plan to paint your shoes a single shade, then it's as simple as choosing the color. If you are going to do a more elaborate pen drawing or painting, then go ahead and sketch out your ideas on paper in advance. You can also create a 3-D design with a computer program, such as Photoshop. Draw on your design with the markers and use a cotton swab to dab at the colors. It will give them a softer look. Make sure to consider how your design will look from all angles, including the back and from an above view. If you are just starting out, try to avoid any designs that involve layering multiple colors or really intricate images. Instead, go with designs that feature large blocks of color, geometric images, or simple swirl patterns.

SUMMARY: Use leather or spray paint for leather or vinyl shoes. Use fabric paint for cloth shoes. Use paint markers for detailed designs. Create a design. A fun way to make a tie-dye looking canvas shoe is to use permanent markers and rubbing alcohol.

Some rice cookers have a removable bowl or pot, while others must have the rice placed directly in the cooker. Most of the time, rice cookers will come with a measuring "cup" or scoop that can fit 3/4 cup (180 mL). Alternatively, use an ordinary measuring cup. One cup (240 mL) of uncooked rice will generate anywhere from 1 1/2 cups (360 mL) to three cups (720 mL) of cooked rice, depending on variety. Leave enough space for this expansion to prevent the rice cooker from spilling over. Most rice cooker instructions recommend cold water. How much water you add depends on what kind of rice you're cooking and how moist you prefer it. There are often graduated marks on the inside of a rice cooker, indicating how much rice and water should be added, or instructions on the package of rice. Alternatively, use the following suggested amounts depending on your variety of rice, but keep in mind you can always adjust these in future if you prefer your rice more chewy or soft: White, long grain - 1 3/4 cups of water per 1 cup of rice (420 mL water per 240 mL rice) White, medium grain - 1 1/2 cups of water per 1 cup of rice (360 mL water per 240 mL rice) White, short grain - 1 1/4 cups of water per 1 cup of rice (300 mL water per 240 mL rice) Brown, long grain - 2 1/4 cups of water per 1 cup of rice (520 mL water per 240 mL rice) Sold as "parboiled" (not half-cooked at home) - 2 cups of water per 1 cup of rice For Indian style rices like Basmati or Jasmine, less water is needed as a drier rice is desired, use no more than 1 1/2 cups of water per 1 cup of rice. Use only 1 to 1 if you washed the rice previously. It is ok to add bay leaves or cardamom pods directly to the rice cooker to enhance the flavor. This is not required, but some people soak the rice to shorten the cooking time. Soaking may also make the cooked rice stickier. Use the amount of water measured earlier to soak the rice at room temperature, then use this same water for cooking. Some rice cookers simply have an on/off switch. Others have different settings for brown or white rice, or the ability to delay the cooking until a specified time period has passed. You are unlikely to run into problems if you just go with the basic settings, but it's a good idea to figure out what each button or option does if possible.
