14 Porn Stars Give Dating Advice

Porn stars. They're just like us. Duh.

In the lifelong quest for a relationship that goes beyond the realm of "adequate," it's oft forgotten that some of the finest mentors are right under our noses. Or, rather, right in front of our noses—on the computer, having sex with other people.

And because these hard-working folks face the extra hurdle of pursuing a career where their suitor's parents have more than likely viewed their everything in high def, who better to shed some light on the world of dating than the women of Vivid Radio and Fleshlight? Warning: you might be shocked by how down-to-earth these answers really are—but nothing's really shocking these days, am I right?
 

Tanya Tate, 35

"Encourage open communication with your significant other. Build a trust so if you have something you want to talk about, you can without feeling vulnerable." 

Teagan Presley, 29

"Guys, you should believe in Disney fairy tales. Treat your lady like a princess. Even on a first date open the door, be a gentleman and fill the date with tons of romance. All girls love to be treated like a princess."

Ashley Blue, 33

"Don't be cheap. Be generous with yourself! Give compliments and presents and be affectionate. Holding back gets you nowhere. Even if you're going to be an as*hole, really bring it! Take chances and you will end up with more interesting memories and be the one that can't be forgotten."

Tera Patrick, 38

"Listen to your instinct and gut. Don't make excuses for someone's behavior and don't settle. If it doesn't 'feel' right, don't stick around! There are WAY too many people in this galaxy—never feel like you have to settle for less!"

Aiden Starr, 35

"Always carry a condom. Don't have too many drinks. Always be polite. Mindfulness is key in all things in life."

April Flores, 38

"I guess the best thing I can think of is to try and be yourself and not force a connection. I am a firm believer in chemistry, and that is something that is either present or not. Whether it will turn into a one night stand, or a life long happy marriage, there must be chemistry before any kind of progression is made."

Ash Hollywood, 25

"It's so hard to give just one piece of advice for dating, as it's so complicated, but every relationship comes down to the core foundation of communication. A relationship will never survive without an open window for discussions about each other's feelings, wants, needs, etc. Without communication trust crumbles and so will the structure of any relationship, even those outside of dating."

Alexis Amore, 35

"Well, my advice would be: honesty. Maybe it sounds a bit corny, but I believe that a lot of relationships go wrong because of it. Be honest about your likes and things you like to do. If you hide things from day one problems are guaranteed in the future."

Lexi Love, 33

"Have a great time, be safe, don't over think it. If you really like someone tell them, but not that you are madly in love with them on the first date, that's super creepy. Actions speak volumes over words. If you have sex on the first date, don't be upset if you end up the booty call."

Jelena Jensen, 33

"If you’re just looking to get laid, my advice is to always use protection. But if you’re looking for an actual relationship, always be yourself. Pretending to be someone you’re not or lying about things will not get you anywhere with someone in the long run."

Mary Carey, 34

"My advice would be to be confident! I think all women like a man with confidence."

Angela White, 29

"My advice when approaching a woman about a date is to not ask for her number. Instead, offer her your number. This empowers the woman to make the choice about when and whether to call or text you. It also gives her time to think it over whereas if she was put on the spot you may have received an immediate rejection."

Tori Welles, 47

"Seriously? If I had any good answers to this I wouldn't be single. It's not that serious! Relax and just go for it!"

Alexis Texas, 29

"To have a healthy oral sex life. Eating p*ssy is the way to my heart."
