-Scouting information is absolutely critical. If your information is five minutes old, it can no longer be trusted.

-It's all mind games. You can never take any action at face value; you never know when they're faking it just to screw with you.

-It's usually a good idea to have a game plan, however, sometimes it's better to improvise. Don't be afraid to be creative.

-Starcraft: you're really fucked if you don't even know what race you're playing against. Dating: You're really fucked if you're not even sure if she's a she.

-Flanking can a good tactic if it looks like you're losing the advantage.

-Basic mechanics are the foundation, but without good game sense and timing, you're going nowhere fast.

-If your timing is off by even the slightest bit at a critical moment, it can cost you everything.

-If you're getting frustrated, find someone better than you and go over replays to find out where you went wrong. Focus on one thing at a time; you're not going to become gosu overnight, so don't expect it. Get opinions from both sides of the matchup. A major difference between starcraft and dating is you can play offrace in starcraft.

-If you're losing badly, at least amuse yourself by pulling something crazy and desperate.

-One good way to improve is to mass game.

-Cheesy strategies are risky, but can get you easy victories. (thanks LxRogue)

I thought this was going to be a don't forget range and speed

or you need the adrenal glands to do the most you can

or a dmatrix before you attempt to break her sunkens

or a fuse the two of them together to make an archon

or a make sure devourer splash hits everything it can.

etc.

make sure to scan around before you drop it
always send one guy out to take all the fire
if something is squirming around, irradiate it
run your things into the tanks

LOL, but I never realized some guys thought of girl issues as something akin to science/a game/strategies - thinking about it that much is kind of creepy to us girls.

This blog is pretty correct.
Sometimes I'm trying to pick up a girl but I fail due to map imbalance. Not my fault =[
