Want to know why you are unsuccessful with women? It might masquerade as shyness, nerves, neediness, lack of style, bad breath, or body odor. Want to know the real answer?
It’s simple and it’s true…
Insecurity
I cover this in detail in my ebook, How To Get A Girlfriend, but for now let’s accurately define security. Then, let’s consider how this relates to being attractive. Let’s also try to keep this simple, because this is a topic we cover at length in our products and consultations which takes time to get handled. Let me give you our definition of security:
“A willingness to accept myself as I am, strengths and weaknesses and then the determination to work towards a healthy ideal for myself.”
A man who is secure realizes his weaknesses, and then addresses them. Some weaknesses (better known as challenges) are tougher to handle than others. A patient, deliberate effort may have to follow.
If a guy has bad breath, for example, is it because he just ate a dish filled with garlic or does he suffer from gingivitis? If it’s the garlic causing the problem, his problem is easily remedied by a bit of time and some mouthwash. If he has gingivitis or halitosis, the challenge becomes larger and will take more time to surmount. (Although, he should carry some Cool Mint Listerine PocketPaks with him at all times)
A guy who is secure with himself likely never encounters a challenge like bad breath, or if he does, he handles it right away.
An insecure guy will be too lazy to take the action, or will unconsciously reject the reality that he has bad breath. His fragile self-esteem will not accept the information, thus he continues to create bad impressions on other people due to his own unwillingness.
This mini-example can translate to virtually any challenge which we encounter through our lives. Most guys live lives that are so out of balance, that a woman might initially like you, but when she eventually sees the chaos that follows you around (whether it be bad breath, flailing friendships, insecurity, lack of focus, endless hours surfing the web, messy apartment, the list goes on…) she will never really see you as a viable companion because she knows, intuitively, and biologically, that you are not a man in the truest sense. You are not someone who can provide security…thusly you are not attractive to her.
Here is where we separate the men from the boys. The boys right now are thinking, “This is a load of BS. A bunch of feel good jargon. This will never work for me.” They are right, it never will until they decide to face their lives and live like a man.
A man sees this and realizes that it is time, now, to step up to the plate and take responsibility. He sees that he can get what is rightfully his. That time is now.
Women are seeking a man who is secure with himself, and is able to provide it to her consistently.
These men reflect it with everything they do – they always seem to be in control, they are sensitive to the needs of the moment, they rise to the occasion, they have a focused purpose in their life, and are comfortable in their own skin.
Their life naturally validates them internally, and thusly, they feel complete.
They are attractive, naturally.
So, when you give that guy the ten magically perfect things to say to a woman, he only needs five, and even then he has overdone it…
Let me be clear – I am not saying that you have to be rich or to have fully realized all of your goals in order to be successful with women.
What I am saying is that it is critical to be on the path pursuing your goals. Men who live with passion and direction are magnets for women because they are attractive.
Quality women are desperate for men whose lives are focused, balanced, and filled with purpose.
In conclusion!:
The Single Most Perfect Piece Of Advice That I Can Give You Is: You Must Get Your Life In Order And Moving Forward To Have Anything Close To A Meaningful Relationship With A Quality Woman.
Thanks for your time guys, and best of luck!

Dating After 40: The First Time … Calling Him
By R.L. Morgan
A guy you’ve been emailing from a dating site has given you his number and requested you call if you want to talk. You’re grateful because you’re uneasy giving a stranger your phone number.
His number sits on a Post-It on your desk. You pick it up several times a day. But you put it down each time. Without dialing.
You like his profile and his pic. His emails have been interesting. So why don’t you call?
You don’t know what to say. You’re afraid of stammering and stuttering and sounding like an idiot. You have no trouble making business calls, but this is different. You don’t have much practice doing this, since the last time you dated men made the first move. The Internet, stalkers, and safety concerns have changed all that.
So the ball is in your court.
You could always wimp out and write him an email. Or an IM. Or just give him your number. But no, you want to hear his voice, and yet you’re uncomfortable giving out your number, no matter how nice and sane he’s seemed so far.
You know you need to dial the phone. But how to start?
Review his profile or whatever you know about him before dialing. If you want a cheat sheet, prepare 3 or 4 open-ended questions. Open-ended questions get people to talk more. They start with how, what, who, why, when and require more than a one- or two-word response. You could start with “Tell me about…,” “Help me understand…,” “I’m curious about…,” “Share with me…,” “I’m interested in….”
You could ask questions that elicit a “yes” or “no” answer, but then the conversation can stall. If he’s a bit nervous, he won’t elaborate. So prompt him with a question that invites him to talk more.
Also, don’t interrogate him with rapid-fire questions. Make sure you comment on his response before asking another question. And allow him to ask you some questions. I find it best to end my answers with a question back to him, even if it’s just, “What do you think on that topic?”
Here’s a sample for you.
You: Hi Mark. This is Sally, also known as SunnyBright from Match.com. I wanted to call and say “Hi.”
Him: Hi Sally. It’s nice to finally hear your voice.
You: Thanks. It’s nice to hear yours, too. I liked your profile and I’ve enjoyed our email exchanges. You are an interesting guy. (A little sincere flattery is a good way to begin. Don’t comment on his pic by saying that you think he’s cute, as the pic could be from a long time ago. When you meet, he might not look much like his pic.)
(Now ask him an open ended question. Something from his profile.) I thought it was interesting that you said you were an East Coast transplant. What is the most striking difference you’ve found from living on both coasts?
(If you said, “Do you like living on the West Coast?” or “Do you miss the East Coast?” he could just answer “yes” or “no.”)
Him: The people here are more open and friendly, which is great. I haven’t had time to meet a lot of folks, but am getting some friends from work and the sailing club.
You: I remember you said in your profile you liked to sail. I love to sail, too, but haven’t been out in a long time. I love the wind on my face and being so close to the water. What’s your favorite thing about sailing?
And you’re off. On the first call, people commonly ask, “What are you looking for in a romantic partner?” But they often express that in their profile — even if it is typically nebulous. And people aren’t particularly willing to go into a deep discussion on the first call. You want to know if you might be a match, but unless he says something that is totally off-putting, you can’t really tell if you might be a match or not.
Some women also try to feel out a man’s readiness for a committed relationship and his interest in having a family. A guy may say he’s ready to settle down, but doesn’t know he isn’t until he is in a relationship. So you can ask, but a guy may say what he thinks you want to hear — not because he is purposefully lying (although some will), but because he’s not really clear on what he wants, but doesn’t realize it.
The purpose of this first call is to see how easy he is to talk to. If it is difficult to maintain a conversation, it’s not good. If he talks 90% about himself, how much money he makes (or the material goods he has that tells you how much money he makes), how horrible his ex is, or curses or gets sexual, then no need to bother meeting. However, most people are on their best behavior on the first call, so if there is nothing odious about him at this point, it’s probably worth another call or coffee.
But let him ask! Don’t say, “Shall we get together?” or “Do you want to have coffee?” Yes, you’re an assertive, take-charge, twenty-first century woman. But this is not the time to show it. It will come out soon enough. You shouldn’t be something you’re not, but allow him to make the invitation. Unless you’re into shy men, he needs to show enough interest — and confidence — to suggest the next contact. Even if he says, “I’m up to my eyeballs in work the next few days. Let me call you back in a day or two,” that is a good sign. If you don’t want to give your number, say, “No problem. Email me a good time and I’ll call you back in a few days.”

Dating Online Is Not Reality!
By Teddy Shabba
Just in case you skipped the title of this article, I will write it again.
Dating online is not reality!
You have not met a woman until you actually meet her in person.
Before you meet a woman in person, you simply have a connection with your computer screen which you would like to transfer to a woman.
The reason why it is important that you understand the simple basic concept of "dating online is not reality" is too many men spend way too much time "getting to know" women online.
Don't get me wrong, online dating offers men the potential to meet women they might not meet otherwise and is a good resource to use.
However, it is effective only if it is used correctly.
Your profile and first two emails (at most) must be enough to get at least a phone number, any time it takes more than two emails to get her phone number you are dating online which is not reality.
Anyone can post a picture of whoever they want to be and date online as a male or a female.
However, women who want to actually meet men in the real world should have no problem wanting to meet you sooner rather that later.
If you ever find yourself exchanging email with a woman who says otherwise, perhaps now you can ask yourself if she wants to meet in reality, since you know dating online is not reality.
Of course if you enjoy dating online by all means continue living in your own fantasy.

Dating Advice: Deadline Junkie - No Time for Relationships
Finding it hard to find the time for dating and relationships. Lear how to use your precious time more effectively to date and live life as a successful single.
Dating Advice: Deadline Junkie – No time for relationshipsI want a relationship BUT…When talking to singles about relationship there is one theme that I often hear “I would like to be in a relationship BUT I don’t have the time”. This is particularly prevalent for the 40 something age group. You are trying to build your careers, you have a lot of pressure and dating and finding a relationship is not top of your list. Although you think it is! Recently I asked a client to list her life goals in terms of priorities and relationships came 6th for her. She found this quite a revelation especially as I was working with her as a relationship coach. Old habits – last minuteOld habits die hard. Most of us have been brought up with a last minute attitude. This originated in our education system where external deadlines were what we were aiming at. Let’s face it in the main we are not taught to plan our lives very effectively.So we get used to back loading our tasks and activities. I have all these things to do and not much time so I don’t need to think about this until the week before. Then the adrenaline kicks in and we push ourselves to the finishing post often accompanied by a lot of anxiety and stress. I have termed this kind of behaviour the ‘deadline junkie’. You know that it would be better to arrange your life differently but somehow you are caught in a treadmill. Relationship Time - speed-dating /internet dating/bar cultureHow is this translated into the dating scene? Well we have all seen the ballooning of speed-dating, internet dating and the bar culture. These ways of meeting potential dates and finding relationships has become part of the 21st century culture because of peoples’ perceived lack of time . If you perceive yourself as having little time then you look for the ‘fastest’ and most efficient way of doing things. After all you meet a lot of people in a very short amount of time. This way of looking at dating and finding relationships is the ‘numbers game’ attitude. The more people I meet the more likely I am to meet someone who is for me. Well I would like to dispel that myth; it is not about numbers but essentially about quality and fit. How can you go about being more effective in finding quality and fit in dating and relationships?Creating space & balance for relationships and datingCreating space and balance in life sounds like an old clichй. Be more pro-active in planning and take steps to find more quality time for activities where you are more likely to find a quality relationship. For a week note down how much time you spend on the following activities: work, friends/family, dating activity (including all those hours on the internet), health, home, personal development plus any other major activity. Now think about the efficiency of the activities. Research into relationships has shown that you are much more likely to meet someone if you are involved in an activity in which you both have a strong interested. This is not hanging about in bars or speed- dating but something like off-road biking, photography, salsa dancing, volunteering etc. Whatever the activity that interests you, if at all possible something you are passionate about, then not only will you be balancing your life BUT be putting yourself in a situation where you are more likely to meet prospective quality dates.
Take the Time for RelationshipsSo take a cool hard look at the balance of your life. I work with people on their relationships and help them to plan their lives as successful singles whilst looking for a relationship. Being successfully single includes offering a potential relationship a fully rounded person not a 20 second response (that is what it takes in speed-dating & internet dating). And remember if you don’t have much time then you want to use what you have as effectively and efficiently as possible to date and find a relationship. Remember if you fail to plan then you plan to fail.

This article provides useful, detailed information about Herpes Dating.
Herpes is a viral disease that is prevalent in people in the USA, but involves no visible symptoms in most cases. The result is that people are not even aware that they have either oral or genital herpes. It has been observed that people generally go into a shell when they realize they have the disease and their social interactions become awkward. This becomes all the more highlighted if an infected person is dating someone.
First and foremost, a person with herpes should realize that the disease is a common ailment that can be controlled and is not in any way the end of the world. Recent studies have shown that proper treatment and precaution can prevent transmission of the disease. All this means is that people with herpes should keep their heads up and confidence level high. The saying \'smile and the world will smile with you\' may sound clich?d, but can be very useful in this situation. The trials and tribulations serve to test the strength the relationships of the person with herpes. It is important for the infected person to be honest with themselves and their partner. Disclosing private information and facing rejection is never easy, but if the infected person\'s partner really cares for them, he or she will realize their trauma and reach out to them. On the practical side, honesty will lead to communication that will not spread transmission. There is more to a relationship than sexual interaction. by looking at its positive side, one will find that herpes will provide the perfect opportunity to explore other alternatives of intimacy bonding at a level that goes will beyond physical.About the Author

Dating advice for people dating online, where safe dating will always be a priority!
For many of you that are starting to move from the traditional local dating avenues to find relationships and love, and are now using dating online as your source, keep in mind that common sense must still be an important element when involving your dating relationships online.
Before you decide what dating sites to use, make sure you read their dating tips that provide valuable information on how to best keep you safe. Some will send you articles and newsletters and provide tips online to keep you up to date on security issues. Even if you're fully aware of the bad things that can occur out there, it's always good to have a site that cares enough to remind you from time to time.
If safety is a major priority and concern as you venture online, there are many available dating sites that focus on your privacy and well being, as well as having all the proper screening tools. You will find dating information in more detail directly on their sites, and you will see that they will emphasize the key features they use to assist in providing a peace of mind experience.
Take the time to read their articles; they may give you valuable tips from finding love to how to keep safe while dating people on the Internet. If they have member profiles issuing testimonials on their experiences, read them and see how they like the service offered.
Even though women have built in instincts, it's always good to be reminded that online relationships should be treated with a careful approach, just the same if you were to meet singles in your own community. Once you become a member, make sure the dating company has blocking features for the emails, and that they keep your email address confidential. This should also apply to the personals, and chat services. On your end make sure you never provide personal contact information, full name, and never give out your home phone number!
Another important detail to remember is if you ever feel uncomfortable with a member that could be a little too aggressive, or is presenting something that is false, make sure you contact the dating company's customer service assistance line and advise them of the actions. This is imperative to eliminate the bad apples out there, so you can enjoy your dating relationships online to find romance and love!

Dating – 5 Simple Tips To Write Hypnotic Online Profile
Many people falter and make a mess of their online dating experience and face rejections to the extent it becomes a nightmare. How do we make our online dating experience a memorable one where you find true love and happiness for both men and women? Read to learn the techniques here.
Are you trying to find the man or woman of your dreams? Online dating can help you find your potential date. You need to write a personal ad or a dating profile, which will give you an opportunity to select your soul mate. An online dating ad, which is written clearly is informative and full of good content will fetch you quality responses.
We find certain profiles on online dating sites, which are written spontaneously and they lack creativity. These kind of profiles will lead you to attracting the wrong kind of person. The common mistakes that people make in their dating profiles are mentioned below. Read them carefully and avoid repeating these mistakes.
1. The dating profiles have sentences like “I am a witty person having a great sense of humor” Instead of that you could write something humorous in your profile. Sexual innuendos should be avoided as it gives a wrong impression the first time. Write something romantic instead of writing that your are sexy and flirtatious.
2. Avoid using adjectives like honest, lovable, creative, and imaginative or that you have an above average IQ while describing yourself. Instead mention that you are an artist or a musician etc. It is also important to present yourself in positive manner. You could write that you like reading or mountain climbing or walking by the beach instead of saying that you are bored so you wrote this ad.
3. Show a positive attitude to online dating. Mention that you are interested in meeting new people who are interested and having common interests. Avoid writing that you are interested in the guy who makes you laugh (shows a depressed side of yourself). You are not looking for a clown to make you laugh but you are looking for a Date.
4.Mention your preferences clearly. Don’t write that you are interested in fair complexioned women but maybe if they are dark but attractive you may consider. It is a turn off to both the women.
5. The Ad should reflect your positive outlook and should be informative, hypnotic and rich in content. A well-written profile will always give you success in getting a good response to online dating. Finally a tip on how to write a hypnotic profile. Words like IMAGINE, VISUALIZE, THINK ABOUT IT are hypnotic. These words make people think. Use these words effectively and subtly to encourage people to respond to your profile.
If you follow these five simple steps when writing your dating profile and implement them you will very positively find the soul mate you have been searching. Go ahead and make your online dating a huge success.

Dating – Amazing Techniques To Attract a Mate of Your Dreams Online
Many people falter and make a mess of their online dating experience and face rejections to the extent it becomes a nightmare. How do we make our online dating experience a memorable one where you find true love and happiness for both men and women? Read to learn the techniques here.
When we start thinking about online dating, the most frequently asked questions are “How do I create a love relationship? How do I attract a man or a woman online for a night, a lifetime or anything in between? People say that they are waiting for the person that they can love, but we would like you to self reflect and ask yourself the question that if you need to pick up anything heavy, do you wait for the muscles to develop?
There are simple tools of communication for creating lasting love. One of the many tools is self-assessment or self-analysis. You can do a sort of course correction to attract a better partner before starting dating, try to upgrade your inner self, change yourself to attract a person of higher value. Course correction is like an airplane, which flies in a certain direction, but the wind pushes it in a different direction so the pilot is constantly trying to course correct.
There are people who complain that they keep attracting bimbos or gold diggers who are just mentally ill. One should stop and think why they are attracting the wrong kind of person. It is worthwhile to learn certain tools, which will make you, understand people better and help you to change yourself, help you to attract a better partner for dating online.
The other important tool to attract the ideal woman or man is body language or tonality or pacing of the voice. It is important to read the signals that are being sent to you. The first and foremost advice we would like to give a man who is dating online is to first establish trust in a woman, let her settle in her feminity. Never talk about sex on the first day. Never view the woman as a target, something to be had or accomplished. Try to read her profile, read her messages, and ask her questions.
There are also women who test a man about how he talks about his mother or about his last girlfriend. You can say something beautiful about them to her but you need not fake it. For attracting a woman online, we should communicate in an authentic manner. Most of us do not reveal our authentic self because we are self conscious or scared. Usually a man wants a woman who is gracious, a woman who is not cutting down another woman or man.
Now, how does a woman attract a quality man through online dating? Again it is essential that she communicate about herself online in the right way. The signals that attract a man are I am whole, I am complete and I am not needy. The signals that scare a man away are I am confused or I am incompetent. A man does not want a dependent or a child. He needs a confident woman. The woman is taught by someone, somewhere (parents or movies) that they should not show all their strengths. They should hide their emotions or they will scare a quality man away.
If a person does not respond to your profile in online dating or does not call you back you should be grateful. It means that he is not resonating or responding to your authentic self. He is probably searching for someone who not so confident, someone whom they can manipulate. There is a saying that a woman can fake an orgasm but men can fake a whole relationship.
We should try to communicate our positive selves in online dating, who we want to be and when we communicate that people start responding to that person. So to attract a person of your dreams on online dating, it is important to master these tools to be successful.
Discover The Secrets That will Boost your confidence and charisma enabling you to get almost any woman within 5 minutes…

Dating A Stranger!
Author: Mary Williams
If you are finding a safe portal for meeting other people for dating, Christian online dating is your answer! Most people consider online dating as an option in getting to know other people outside of their circle. The Christian community now utilizes this current trend of communication to widen their reach and to create a fun-loving environment.
Through the Internet, you can search thousands of other Christian profiles and get to know each one online. There's a vast Christian network that has varied interests, hobbies, likes and dislikes. You can check out their profiles and you may even find one that you like.
Christian online dating has proved to be very effective for most people who participate with friendships and often blooms into serious relationships. Christian online dating provides a very comfortable environment and is considered safe. The online dating community is a place where you can create lasting relationships for acquaintance, friendship, companionship, romance, and can even lead to a permanent commitment.
Normally, a Christian online dating website should include chat rooms where you can have fun discussions. You can also post memos and notes on message boards and share pictures with photo galleries.
And of course, you can send personal messages to private mail boxes. Many dating websites also feature instant messaging and voice introductions for a more personal touch. Some of the Christian websites even offer Christian dating services aside from online matching. In a Christian online dating site, the center is spirituality. You include faith in your search for a mate.
Most people go to a Christian community for dates because they prefer to have somebody within their faith. People here believe they have filtered out the dates with people who may not share the same set of values.
In fact, mellow people usually belong to this group of online daters. They are those who dislike too much loud music, bar hopping, and disco dancing. Most dates here end in a cozy restaurant or a sweet music place.
Although this is not necessarily true all the time, it can be frequently observed on date outcomes based on testimonials.
It is better to date with someone sharing your beliefs because it would be more reassuring than starting with somebody who does not share the same principles. If you are joining a Christian online dating site, you?ll know what you can expect. And as implied, the online society is Christ-centered.
And by association, Christ is all pure love and kindness. If you join the group, this indicates you support Christian values and standards. Meeting the love of your life could be a possibility!

Christian Dating Right or Wrong
Author: James Hunt
Today more and more people are finding it hard to find a mate through the traditional methods. At one point Christian dating consisted of people going to bars and other social gatherings to meet people. They also met through friends. However, over time things have changed. With the increased use of the internet people have found a different way of dating. Christian dating today consists of people sitting in front of computer, typing in a name and meeting both men and women online who they have a relationship with.
There are those who think that this form of Christian dating is wrong and people should get away from the computer and get out a meet people. However there are others who think, what better way to meet hundreds of people at the same time then by entering a chat room and talking to everyone at the same time. People have found future spouses and mates on the internet.
There are Christian dating services that will help you to find your soul mate. These companies will contact you and interview you to find out about you as a person. They will record all information and enter it into a data base. The company will then try to find a person who matches what you want and who has similar interests as you. The company will then contact both parties and will arrange a date. This is kind of like a blind date as in most cases you don't know your date until you meet them on the day of the arranged date.
Christian dating also consists of people going on reality televisions shows to find to find their mate. This form of dating is becoming more and more popular all the time. In this form Christian dating is a little different, instead of dating one person at a time, people are dating multiple persons in an attempt to find the one that is perfect for them. Over the course of a specific period of time, people get eliminated until the perfect couple is found.

How To Bounce Back From A Terrible First Impression!
By Sarah H
First impressions can mean a lot, because it's the first time you might notice someone standing across from you at a party and you might think to yourself what an awkward looking person, or that guy surely should know what a brush is by now, because his hair is long and looking as if it hasn't been combed in months. Or maybe you might be introduced to someone for the first time and they seem so sure of themselves that you get the impression that they are just so full of themselves. This will certainly annoy you, so you might try to play down what you really think about them and maybe ignore them or be a bit on the rude side when they try to speak to you.
Bouncing back from a terrible first impression that you think you have made on someone you really would like to get to know better, can be tricky. So you are introduced to this guy and just because he seems all full of himself you try to snob him in order to make him feel less positive about himself and eventually he does ignore you, but then you just keep having these chance meetings with him at almost every event you attend. Now you are interested but because of your snobbery he does not even acknowledge you, well you should definitely be the one to approach him, say something witty that will make him feel at ease, be the first to extend your hand for a handshake and this action will relay to him that you are trying to be friendly and maybe his first impression of you was not correct.
Another good way would be to make a joke of the incident the next time you meet the person involved by say something honest, that would make the incident seem funny and out of character. Soon he or she will forget about it and start creating another first impression of you, this time you will be better prepared and hopefully you will make a good lasting impression this time, one that truly reflects who you really are.
Terrible first impressions can be hard at times to bounce back from and sometimes people just won't let you forget your embarrassing moment for a long time, they tend to make a joke about it every time they meet you. You can overcome this by either pretending not to hear their comment about the incident in question or you can just join in and have a jolly laugh as though you were enjoying the joke and soon they will realize that you are neither embarrassed or bothered by their comment and will eventually stop bringing up the topic. Just be brave put on a happy face and go out and face the music.

Do You Have A Date For Valentines Day?
By Dawn H Robertshaw
Valentines Day is just around the corner. We all like to be loved, and after all, Valentines Day is about love and caring for one another and those who are alone often feel left out. If you are single and you do not want to be, start to think about how you are going to start paving the way for a relationship. In order to have a relationship you need to start off on a date. So, how are you going to get that date?
Write down a list of all the ways that you can get that date, they can include;
*Online dating sites. Do a search in Google, there are quite a few online dating sites out there. All you have to do is put your profile up on a few sites and you will get contacts from people with similar likes and dislikes, interest etc. Some of them even allow you to specify a specific area; you never know your perfect match may just live up the freeway!
*Speed dating. These are events for singles which are held for a couple of hours. You will get a few minutes to find out a little about this person to decide whether you want to see them again.
*Slow dating. This is similar to speed dating but at a lot slower pace.
*Singles groups. These are social clubs which have been set up specifically for singles; they include people who are recently separated, divorced or widowed.
*Volunteer at a local church group, conservation program or even to work in the Amazon rainforest!
*Join the gym or participate in a sporting activity. If you participate in a sporting activity that you enjoy doing, your potential mate will already have something in common with you.
It does not have to cost money. There are lots of things that you can do at little or no cost if you put your mind to it.

You Do Not Need A Dating Coach – You Have Your Own Dating Coach Inside (Pt. 2)
By Christine Akiteng
Many of us are trying to turn around our dating lives and relationship problems but we are doing so by focusing on our inadequacies, weaknesses and failures. Focusing on our inadequacies, weaknesses and failures shapes how we approach dating and relationships (we do all we can to try to “cover" up – sell ourselves, persuade, convince, impress or manipulate). Focusing on our inadequacies, weaknesses and failures also shapes the results we get (rejection, conflict, mental stress and emotional frustration).
And much of the dating and relationship advice we get is equally geared towards improvement by looking for the problem or problems and then focusing on fixing them. So much time and energy (not to mention money) is spent struggling to learn programmes, routines, techniques etc, while ignoring the very things that come naturally to us. It's no wonder that much of the advice, techniques and programs don’t seem to work.
If you are serious about liberating yourself from what holds you back from becoming powerfully present and perfectly at ease - any time anywhere or what's stopping you from creating a fully-expressed, satisfying, passionate, and loving relationship full of happiness and joy, the first thing you need to do is change your thinking (and approach to life) from "what is wrong with me" to "what is right about me".
Like the example of the guy I talked about in Pt. 1 of this article, we have had so many years of experience figuring out and beating ourselves up for what is wrong with us that we can't even wrap our minds around what is right with us. So many of my clients when I ask what their dating/relationship strengths are, reply either “I don’t know" or “nothing."
Everyone has something unique to offer to the opposite sex (and the world). You may be one of those people whose strengths are abundantly obvious or you may be one of those who needs some reflective work to uncover the strengths you have hidden inside. Knowing your strengths will allow you to tap into your inner wisdom (knowing what to say and do when and how) inner youthfulness, inner desires, and inner coach.
More importantly (for you), knowing your strengths has an edge like no other dating technique or program. Today’s single man/woman has so many “qualified" candidates from which to choose. You will be seriously considered only by showing him/her that you know who you are, what you can offer and where you are going with your life.
Hopefully, these suggestions will get you started:
1. What is the one strength that - if you worked on it - would make the difference in your dating/relationship?
2. What do you enjoy doing? What turns you on? What energizes you? What are the specific things that come easily to you? You may not see them as “special" but list them anyway.
3. What do you do well in dates or relationships? What do others tell you?
4. Who has truly loved/trusted/cared about/ been genuinely interested in you etc? Anyone you know or respect (personally or professionally)? What are the qualities or traits that make this person your model? What do you and your role model have in common?
5. If someone you loved dearly or cared about were in an emergency or suffering from a terminal illness what strengths do you have - or can quickly acquire – to help them deal the situation?
These are just a few questions to ask yourself, but go all the way to identify your physical, emotional, mental, social, sexual, relational, spiritual etc strengths.
If you do not feel that (on your own) you are able to identify your strengths and develop them to the level that that catches attention, arouses interest, commands respect and gets you remembered, by all means – hire a coach or consultant. But make sure it’s someone who looks at dating from a “Here-I-am" rather than “Where-Are-You?" model, and relationships from "I know you'll love me" rather than "Please, love me".
Good dating/relationship advice should NOT focus on trying to teach you to say, do or act in ways that are designed to “make you appear like someone’s ideal" but should emphasize on how you can utilize the positive qualities and traits that come very easily to you.
In a short, your strengths are where your energy and passion is best present and in abundance. Convert those strengths into visible value– they are your natural sex appeal!

If you do not feel that (on your own) you are able to identify your strengths and develop them to the level that that catches attention, arouses interest, commands respect and gets you remembered, by all means – hire a coach or consultant. But make sure it’s someone who looks at dating from a “Here-I-am" rather than “Where-Are-You?" model, and relationships from "I know you'll love me" rather than "Please, love me".
Good dating/relationship advice should NOT focus on trying to teach you to say, do or act in ways that are designed to “make you appear like someone’s ideal" but should emphasize on how you can utilize the positive qualities and traits that come very easily to you.
In a short, your strengths are where your energy and passion is best present and in abundance. Convert those strengths into visible value– they are your natural sex appeal!

Why Online Dating is so Tough For Men
Online dating has become increasingly popular over the past several years. Every year millions of men turn to internet dating in an effort to meet more women without risking face-to-face rejection. Unfortunately, internet dating doesnt work very well for most men because the odds are so heavily against them.
According to a November, 2003 study by Jupiter Research, men are four times more likely than women to subscribe to an online dating site and twice as likely to browse, post, or respond to a profile. Obviously, those odds are stacked strongly in favor of the women.
When it comes to internet dating, to paraphrase James Brown, its a womans world.
This is quite a contrast from the off-line world, where attractive women are not approached nearly as often as men might think.
While doing research for my book, Take Action: How to Meet Women and Get Dates, I surveyed over fifty single women in their twenties or thirties about being approached by men and their views on being hit on and dating in general.
The most striking finding from the survey was that most women very clearly want men to be more daring about approaching them. In response to the question, should men be more bold in approaching women, 82% responded yes.
With a lot of effort and time, online dating can work for some men but it is not easy. You will probably have more success with internet dating by viewing it as a supplement to other methods of meeting women, instead of relying on it as your sole method. Also, use one of the larger services like match.com. You will need to use a shotgun approach and will therefore want to make sure you are in as target-rich an environment as possible.
But if you really want to meet and date a lot of women you will probably need to do it the old fashioned way. Approach women in person.
As the old saying goes, the more things change the more things stay the same.
When it comes to meeting women, a confident man who can approach a beautiful woman and strike up a conversation with her will always do better than the 99% of men who cannot. Technology might change a lot, but it will never change that.

Online Dating Tips: First Contact
By Jack Strom
So you've decided it's time to try out a few online dating sites or services. You've signed up to one or more, and you've filled out your profile in full. Now it's time to start looking for that one love you've always dreamed of, right?
Or at the very least, you'd like to start meeting people that could be the one. So the first step is to use the profile search tools your online dating service provides. On some dating sites you can simply browse using basic criteria such as age and gender. Most sites will give you some form of advanced search ability though, so you can give it very specific search criteria.
Depending on how specific your search criteria is, you may find yourself with just a few profiles which match. In other cases you might have hundreds to browse through. But browsing is what you must do to get to the next step: Making contact with someone you're interested in.
When you find a profile that catches your attention and interest, you should contact the person directly. In most cases, the online dating service will provide you with a private and secure contact method. This could be a site based email inbox, or it could involve sending email to a site controlled email address. With these contact types, the dating site acts as an intermediary for you. Anything sent through that address will be delivered to the person you want it delivered to, yet they won't be able to see your actual email address and you won't be able to see theirs.
Keep in mind that on some online dating sites, you will not be able to actually send full messages if you're using the free trial option. You usually need to be a paying member at some level first. Since online dating services cost less each month than going out clubbing does, this is a good investment if you're serious about finding dates.
It's best to introduce yourself by email instead of chat or instant messages too, because this gives you time to think about what you're writing or absorb what the other person has said. It also makes the other person more comfortable, because they don't feel as if they're "on the spot" when someone new contacts them out of the blue.
You need to realize first impressions really do count. A lot. When you first make contact with someone who's profile interested you, introduce yourself. Don't write your entire life's story of course, but also don't send just a brief sentence or two. Write a few intelligent paragraphs that summarize you.
Also let them know what it was about their profile that caught your interest. This lets them know you actually took the time to look over their information, and you're serious about getting to know them better.
Keep things light, upbeat and friendly in your email. If you fill your email with depressing commentary, complaints, or intimate details of problems in your life you will not likely get a response. Likewise, don't be overly flirtatious or sexual in your first contact email, because this can also turn people off, so you won't likely get any response.
Be sure to ask questions about them too. This will prompt them to respond to you and help keep conversations going.
Use your real first name but don't divulge other personal details such as full name, address and phone number - particularly with first contact.

7 Things That Women Want (and How to Give It to Them!)
By James Brito
It’s a question every guy asks himself, every guy struggles with at some point or another, every guy desperately wants to know the answer to:
WHAT DO WOMEN WANT?
The answer isn’t easy to come by. There are as many answers as there are types of women: young, old; fat, skinny; talkative, quiet; beautiful…not so beautiful. They all want different things, different men for their different personalities. It’s enough to drive a man crazy! We want to know so badly what it is women desire that Hollywood addressed the age-old question with the movie "What Women Want" (which, I’m embarrassed to say, I enjoyed).
So, surely…there must be something ALL women want?
That’s the good news: There are certain qualities every woman can appreciate. And the best part is, these qualities aren't necessarily what we think they are. Maybe we think being 6′5", wealthy, and jacked like a football player is what every woman wants, but (thankfully) it’s not. Only certain women want that, and the groupies who only want a millionaire athlete on steroids usually aren’t even worth your time.
It’s better to focus on the girls YOU really want: the girls who make you feel good, and make you a better man. Empower yourself with a sense of choice, so that you don’t waste your time (and theirs) hitting on girls who don’t fit with your personality and purpose. The great news is, if you can provide the basic qualities that all women REALLY desire, then getting the girl of your dreams will be easy!
So let’s look at some things we can safely say women want in a man–regardless of his size, regardless of his looks, regardless of his wealth.
1. Higher value. That is, women want to know that their man is someone other women would want. They want a certain "gotta have" quality about their man. This is why, when we go out with a girlfriend, women give us looks and always seem more interested. It’s annoying but true: the easiest way to get a girl, is to have one already!
Naturally, that doesn’t mean that you should be hitting on girls when you have a girlfriend. No way! But when you are single, it’s important to know how to show value. I’ve got a great lesson on this in my e-book that will show you everything you need to know: how to make her laugh, how to show a talent, and how to make sure she never leaves you.
There’s so much to learn, but in short, you want to be a guy girls love to be around, and that other girls want to have! If you don’t feel like you’re there right now, do your best to be a fun-loving guy who people enjoy being around. Be quick with a smile, and quick with a joke. Even a guy who smiles a lot can be someone girls want. Who doesn’t enjoy being around someone who’s happy, who lifts the mood of the room?
2. A man who needs her…but not too much. This can greatly value from girl to girl, but basically women DO want to feel appreciated. They just don’t want to be obsessed over. Guys, show interest in a woman, and make her feel beautiful and wanted…but don’t slave over her and make her feel like you can’t live without her. That’s just pathetic, and drives women away.
I wrote a blog on how women want to feel needed. Check it out now if you want to find out how to show your woman the right amount of love.
3. A feeling of security. Women want to feel safe with a man. They want to know that everything’s gonna be all right. This doesn’t mean you have to be huge and strong, or have millions in the bank. It just means you have to talk reassuringly to her, look after her safety, and assure her when she needs it that things are going to be OK.
It also means coming to her protection, when she needs it. If someone is being a jerk to her, stand up for her. If she’s being threatened, fight for her. Let her know that you will fight for her, and nothing will get in your way.
One of the best ways to make her feel confident that you will protect her, of course, is to be…
4. A guy who’s in shape. Okay, I said that you don’t have to be a professional rugby player to attract women, but that doesn’t mean you should let your body slide! Part of a woman’s evolutionary mechanism says that a man who is strong will protect her and the children, as well as produce strong children. Likewise, a man who is weak will produce weak children, and not be able to protect the family as well (if at all) It may occur subconsciously, but it’s there.
So show her your value by being a guy who’s well-built, healthy, and athletic. Join a gym, not just to get women but to improve your health and the way you see yourself. Join a martial arts class–who doesn’t like a guy who can kick some ass? You’ll feel better about yourself, making it easier to pick up girls, and her mating drive will only naturally attract her to you. It’s a win-win situation!
5. Someone who’s not boring. Doesn’t matter how good looking you are…if you bore a woman to tears, she’s not gonna stick around–or even give you a chance, for that matter. Be someone who smiles. Someone who’s quick with a laugh. Someone who doesn’t take life too seriously, who lets loose. That shows a lot more value than a guy who’s stiff and serious–even if he is good looking or wealthy. Believe me, there are lots of guys who have money, who have good looks–but are single, because they’re dull and not fun to be around.
6. Someone who’s good with her friends. You’ve seen it at bars: girls always look to their friends for their approval. Get their friends’ approval, and you get the girl’s approval.
Oftentimes it’s actually best to concentrate on getting to know the girl’s group of friends before you spend time talking to her. If you can make her friends laugh and enjoy your company, getting the girl you want will be a piece of cake!
I really like this piece of advice from Joseph Matthews, aka Thundercat, author of The Art of the Approach, in his excellent free e-newsletter: "Meeting women when they are with their friends is WAY easier than waiting for when they are alone! This is because women with friends feel safe and relaxed, so their defenses aren’t up."
Furthermore, he warns that you’re not doing your chances any favors by waiting til she’s alone: "If you wait until she’s by herself to meet her, you’re walking into a situation where she’s going to be WAY more defensive than usual." So learn to be sociable, and just have fun with her friends! If you can make them enjoy your company, getting your "target’s" approval will be a piece of cake.
This is also where it’s good to go with girls in the same social network as you…you already have the approval of mutual friends. The book, Sex in America, says that 60% of married couples meet through friends, work, or mutual activities. That's pretty impressive! So it pays to use and expand your network. For more information on using networking to your benefit, make sure to check out the links at the bottom of the page.
Finally, the trait all women REALLY want: 7. A man with a purpose. Believe me, women don’t expect every guy they meet to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars, have more power than the mayor, and be more handsome than Brad Pitt. They don’t expect you to be wildly successful. But they DO want you to be headed towards success. They DO want you to have direction. They DO want you to be living up to your potential.
And those aren’t bad expectations to have! Remember, "Behind every great man is a great woman." You may not be at the top just yet, but as long as you’re heading there, with goals in life, you’re bound to attract women. They WANT to help you reach the summit. Just show some potential, and that is attractive in itself.
I highly suggest you read "The Way of the Superior Man," by David Deida. It details the importance of having a life purpose, both for you and for your girlfriend or wife. The book also explains the very important idea that if someone doesn’t fit into your purpose, or detracts you from it, then she isn’t worth your time. As I said above, don’t just go for any old girl: go for the ones who fit YOU, and who make YOU a better person. That’s what we men should really want!
I hope all of this advice helps you out as you seek to improve yourself and attract the women who matter to you. Remember that it isn’t important to know what the bimbo who wants to spend all your money wants: it’s important to know what women who want to be with you want. Empower yourself by being choosy, and you’ll be sure to attract the woman who’s right for you.
Finally, for more information on attracting the specific women you really want, check out my e-book and audio series. Thanks for reading!

10 Impressions on Online Dating
Are you a little uncomfortable with the idea of Internet dating? Have you thought about how great it is for busy people; how convenient? Don't ever be duped by an online dating suitor. There are tales of deceit and heartbreak, don't be one of them.
1. It is easy to get involved in online dating relationships; for some it can lead to an addiction. Some find themselves enjoying the flirtatious advances of the opposite sex, both in chat rooms and with on-line dating services. People get sucked into on-line relationships and become addicted to the world of on-line dating and chat rooms. For some it becomes an obsession. The classic story is a person who finds himself or herself divorced after 20+ years, followed by a string of unhappy relationships, then entering a Chat Room.
2. Because there is anonymity, there is deceit and lies in chat rooms. Deception lurks around every corner. You can create a persona, quite different from yourself. You can act out a part, instead of being a real person. There are characters online ready to predate on the unwary and naive.
3. Online dating is every bit real. There is addiction, obsessiveness, vindictiveness, desperation, impulsiveness, and even downright guilt. Love is a powerful emotion. Do not follow your heart and not your head. Don't journey outside your comfort zone and be overtaken by a seductive search for true companionship.
4. Are you smart about online dating? Do you tell yourself, "I'll keep the relationship at the e-mail level before deciding to talk on the phone!" Yes, take baby steps to discover if you have a great deal in common. You can enjoy Chat Rooms, but be aware where it can lead you if you are not savvy.
5. Are you the kind of person that never thought about online dating? Did a friend convinced you to give online dating a try? You've read the success stories of how people met on the Internet: it was "a miracle" for them. Are you curious about online dating? Lots of books have been written on this subject. You must read a few if you are thinking of entering this medium.
6. For parents, know that there are millions of predators out there, so put the right safeguards in effect to protect your family. There are online safety tips that must be followed for children, not just yourself.
7. It's easy to build relationships via Chat and the Net. The attraction to online dating is how easy it is to fill out a profile and suddenly have a list of "Top 10" matches. If you're too needy, you think how close you are to long walks on the beach and even experiencing a falling star together! And for every one of the stories that you hear about meeting and dating the perfect man, there are stories of relationships that end traumatically when a date's wife answers the phone. Don't let a true life online dating experience that started in a Chat Room, end with yourself in counseling, a total wreck.
8. We live in an age of instant communication with mobile phones, sms, internet relay Chat, instant messaging, ICQ. You surf the Web and up pops a message from a potential lover. The nice thing about Internet dating is that you can do it at your own pace without taking time away from work. But don't let that rush you into anything. There are unfortunately a lot of opportunities for the unsavory members of our society.
9. Many more millions are entering online dating unarmed and this is why the reported number of dangers is increasing. Many stories of unsavory online dating liaisons are taking place. Imagine the horrible dates and unpleasant experiences that are not being reported, because people are either too embarrassed or afraid to share their online dating experiences with anyone.

When I was a teenager I was confused by the weird feelings that I started to experience every time I interacted with girls. I went to my father for some much needed dating advice. My dad immediately began a lengthy discourse about dating during his time. He told me that there were simple rules on dating during his formative years.
Women in his day were sweet, demure, and laughed at everything a man said. The guy opened the doors, paid for dinner, and was considered a gentleman if he had good intentions. I sat listening to my dad with no clue as to what he was talking about. Dating nowadays days is a lot more complicated than they were during my fathers time. But then I realized that one thing hasnt changed through the years. A guy still cant get enough dating advice!
Finding the dream partner is everyones goal, but we all realize that may never really happen. But there are many ways that may help you to find your soulmate. You can seek help from a dating coach who will provide you with all the dating advice you could ever want- for a small price of course. Paying a few bucks to a dating coach can be worth your time if they can help you handle the unpredictable phenomenon known as dating. You can find capable dating coaches at numerous dating/personals sites online.
But can these sites really help? Can they actually help you find the love of your life? Well, believe me it can happen. In fact, it worked wonders for my love life. I met my partner on the Internet and it felt like a match made in heaven. Of course I wasnt looking for the perfect woman. I was looking for someone who was right for me. We chatted for at least a month before we decided to meet. And when we met we discovered that we were honest to each other in our emails. We know what to expect from each other. So, take it from me. You can really find some effective dating advice online.
It is important to think about what your needs when you seek dating advice. Do you want a lasting relationship or something that might amuse you? Do you put emphasis on beauty or do you value characteristics? Dating sites cater to different types of dating. Many sites specialize in long term relationships, some focus on those who are in need of casual or discreet partners, and there are sites that assist single parents. The type of site you surf will determine the type of dating advice that you will be given. And lastly, take it from me, whatever dating advice you receive; it is important to be honest to yourself and those you are searching for.

Dating after a divorce is tough. Internet dating anytime is a bit of a minefield You don’t quite know where to start so here are a few internet dating mistakes and their solutions to get you on your way.
Dating after a divorce is tough. You don’t quite know where to start so here are a few internet dating mistakes and their solutions.1.Too much too soonSo you have been ploughing through those endless profiles on your internet dating site and have come up with someone who interests you. There has been an exchange of emails. He sounds fun and witty and you begin to look forward to his messages. You find yourself getting up earlier in the morning just to log on whilst you drink your coffee to see if he has sent a response to your latest remarks. During the day you compile witty replies in your head and suggestive lines to throw his way. This has gone on for a couple of weeks and he suddenly asks if he can call you. Your chest expands; you are really excited and arrange a time. Now you are curled up in your favourite chair waiting for the call. Guess what it goes well, the same light banter, his voice is not what you expect but that is OK. You talk for an hour. This becomes a daily ritual which you begin to plan your time around. And then he invites you to dinner…
2.Throwing money at itIt has been a while since someone invited you out to dinner (you may be just starting dating after your divorce). Your immediate thought is what to wear, need my hair done etc. This means that you spend the best part of a week running around with the one thought in your mind “I must get this right”. You seem to have disappeared and you feel that you need to invent a new person to go on this date. In order to be that person you have to package yourself in some particular way. There must be some key that you can find, a particular dress, new haircut etc. You believe that you need to make yourself more appealing.
3.Thinking that you know the personThe evening has arrived and you meet at the arranged restaurant (good step, as all the dating advice recommends that you meet in a public place). You are especially nervous and excited but also slightly uncomfortable because the shoes are new and you feel a bit wobbly in them. It is strange you recognise this person but at the same time you don’t. The voice you know that but he does not look like the person in the photograph, taller, shorter a bit heavier or gangly something is not as you imagined. Anyway he seems quite at ease but maybe that is just a contrast to how you are feeling. Initially conversation is going well as there are points of contact from your previous conversations but it isn’t going anywhere. By the main course you are starting to drink a little too much to fill in the silences. Your feet really hurt now and you are taking surreptitious glances at your watch – only 9 o’clock. No dessert thanks and by the way you have an early start in the office tomorrow so you have to go soon. Can’t think of anything but getting out of the shoes. Yes it was good, do call me…
4.Fantasy – it’s only in your headNext day or later in the week, the emails/calls are still coming and you continue to respond. It’s a though you have never met and you can get on with the easy going repartee that has become almost a habit. In your mind he is something you want him to be, well not quite but you can have yourself believe that he is whilst you exchange messages and late night calls. You are starting to develop a whole life in your head around this person, you imagine where you can live with him, what you will do, holidays together in fact everything you ever want with someone. This is taking up a lot of head space but that is enjoyable in itself, you feel connected to someone if only in your mind.
5.Not paying attention to the signalsA week or so more and you are becoming slightly irritated by the emails and are not responding quite so readily. But he asks you if you want to come out for another evening and that heart leaps to your throat again. You agree even though there is a vague memory of discomfort from the first meeting. Well you remind yourself that all the dating advice recommends that it is about getting to know someone. I can’t expect to feel comfortable about everything immediately. He is suggesting dinner again, you don’t really want to but you are not sure what you want to do so you go along with it. You had arranged to see a girl-friend that night but you tell her you can’t make it, she seems a bit put-out but you put that thought aside. The second evening seems very long.
• Too much too soon – It is so tempting to put all your focus on one person at a time when you are looking to date on the internet. But it is important to remember that not only are all those people out there looking at numerous people at any one time but you could be too. If you put most of your time and energy into any one contact at a very early stage this means that you cannot scout, screen and sort other possible people. Dating Advice: Don’t make a big investment emotionally in any relationship without solid foundations.
• Throwing money at it - Recent research has revealed that online daters are spending up to Ј1,500 a month taking out people who they realise, after the first 15 minutes are not for them. (Independent, June 2005) Remember be authentic, the packaging is only that and is not who you are. Meeting for a cup of coffee or a drink will give you enough time to assess whether this person is someone you want to know better. Dating Advice: Packaging is not the answer, be clear about who you are, what you want in a relationship and set about finding it in a considered way.
• Thinking you know this person – We can easily be seduced by email conversations and late night telephone calls. Apart from the actual chemistry that is missing in these exchanges there is that part that you know very well yourself, where you just reveal what you want at any given time. If you know what your requirements are in a relationship this will help you assess quite quickly if this person is for you. Most of us allow things to just drift along and are not pro-active in having a plan for ourselves when it comes to relationships. Dating Advice: How is it we plan for everything except relationships? Take some time to plan what you want in a relationship before you get into a habit or rut with someone.
• Fantasy – it’s only in your head – It is very easy to live in the fantasy of a relationship even from a very early stage. After all that is why you have signed up on the dating site in the first place – you want a relationship. However, being truthful with yourself is easier if you have a relationship plan. Then you can ask yourself, from the information you have so far, does this person tick some of my boxes. If so then you can continue to find out more about them whilst finding out about other people at the same time. Projecting onto any one person, especially at a very early stage, all you hopes and dreams is likely to bring you some amount of pain and heartache when you find this isn’t going to work out. Dating Advice: Spread the emotional load by giving your attention to a number of people, it helps deal with the ups and downs of the dating cycle if you are not exclusive right from the start.
• Not paying enough attention to the signals – it is amazing how quickly we can get ourselves into habits and relationships, however new, are one of those areas. We all like attention and contact with people but what about the rest of your life, those friends who have been around for you, your family. Anyone who might be for you will, you hope, want to share life with a person who has a balanced life and that includes all the other activities and people in your life. Straining towards exclusivity at a very early stage and throwing all your time and attention towards the relationship can be a disaster. Dating Advice: Get out there and have any dating and relationships fit in with your life as a successful single. Know what your requirements, needs and wants are and look for someone who can meet these.

There are many thoughts that the word "dating" brings about. Manyof us have had both bad and good experiences with dating.Most of us can say that those experiences go back to ourteenage years, when we first began dating.
As we developed into a teenager, our maturity evolves andemerge, as does our experience with dating. Dating, the aweinspiring teenage ~thing~ to do, one of life~s greatestmilestones, finally we are into it, girl meets boy or boymeets girl and suddenly we are thrown into the oftenexciting world of dating!
So what is all the hoopla about? In times gone by, courtingwas the olden day version of the more modern times dating.Courting, sort of a catch me if you can type dating scenariowas a societal event. Courting was time to get to know oneanother, to develop a friendship before the routine ofa relationship were thrown into the mix. These days we callit dating, but it is a far cry from the ritualistic courtingthat our ancestors were accustomed to. Or is it? Maybe todaywe are much more open and that openness has become the bigdifference in courting versus dating.
Dating is modern! Dating is hip! Dating is the definitionof hormonal overload! Unfortunately gone are the days whereimpressing them was the aim of the game; whereas today,dating is much more complicated than that!
With many avenues of dating available to us today, datingserves an identifiable purpose to most. Dating is about howto find your first sexual experience, how to find that lifelong partner that you have often dreamt about; dating isabout life experience, an act where it could occur just theonce or could continue for months, often years. Dating couldspark romance or electrify with heartbreak.
So how do we go about attracting a date? Dating services areeverywhere. Every roadside billboard lists web based datingservices, every evening television advertisement mentionsdating chat lines, every newspaper has a personal questionscolumn, every club offers a speed dating service.
The best thing to do is to get a clear picture of what itis you are wanting in the way of a relationship. Keepthat vision in mind and be alert to how synchronicitybrings you opportunities for the right person to show up!

Carmella Difonzo is founder of All About dating an excellent resource site dedicated to information on datingDating After Divorce: Things To Think About Regarding Dating After Divorce
Dating after divorce is a much debated topic due to the psychological and emotional impact it can have on people. Dating after divorce can be complex, too often divorcees don't consider the ramifications of dating after divorce before they jump into it with both feet!
If you're going to start dating again after you've gotten a divorce, there's quite few things that you should consider beforehand...here's a partial list you might want to think about:
Dating after divorce consideration 1: Make sure that you are aware of your own level of self-confidence.
If are considering dating after divorce, be certain that you are either confident in yourself as a person or are at least aware of your level of self-confidence so you can plan accordingly. Self-confidence will help you to remain lucid when you're dating after divorce. Choosing who to date and why you want to date them can be a major turning point in your emotional health after a divorce. If you're self-confident, chances are good that you'll be able to handle being rejected or ignored if you're just beginning a relationship.
If you're truly self-confident, you'll be able to have the right mind set before you begin dating after divorce and any potential let down will be foreseen by you and "non-damaging" to your emotional state. Self confidence is perhaps the most important thing to think about from an emotional health perspective regarding dating after divorce.
Dating after divorce consideration 2: How quickly should you date after getting a divorce?
Fortunately, this is really only a question that you can answer, assuming your divorce is truly over with and you don't have a custody battle that's ongoing, a dispute about assets or finances, or any other type of lingering agreement that needs to be reached that could be impaired by dating. If you have children, this is a question of their strength and the strength of your relationship with them.
If you don't have children, this decision is entirely up to you regarding how you'll approach dating after divorce. Ask yourself how ready you really are to date again...depending on what you want out of dating after divorce, i.e., what the end result is to any solid dating relationship, will drive how quickly you date again. If you're simply lonely and think you need to date again just for the sake of dating or to test how you'll respond to dating, you may want to do a serious self evaluation regarding your confidence level. You will know when you're ready again to begin dating after divorce - everyone's different. Know yourself first, then make the decision.
Dating after divorce consideration 3: Should I date while going through a divorce?
Most coaches, attorneys, and counselors will tell you that dating while going through a divorce is never a good thing to do from a psychological perspective and a legal perspective. While this article isn't a form of legal advice, common sense tells you that if you're in any type of battle regarding marital assets or custody, avoid any dating.
From an emotional health perspective, dating while going through a divorce can be damaging to you and your "soon to be" ex-spouse. You'll be much more mature after the divorce if you self evaluate to figure out how you contributed to the events that lead to your divorce. Handling yourself in a caring and sturdy emotional manner during a divorce can be an extremely difficult thing to do...but, it is a terrific growing and learning process. Make use of it! Grow as a person and learn about yourself, and you'll be far better off after the divorce is final.
Dating after divorce consideration 4: Consider that you may have a tendency to date someone completely opposite from your spouse and realize that this isn't healthy.
Dating after divorce is tricky! Be smart, realize that the pain you may have felt at the hands of your spouse can naturally lead you to want to date someone who is an opposite of your ex. It is a reasonable and natural reaction because you might want to avoid having any pain whatsoever or you may not want to deal with anyone who might remind you of your ex-spouse.
If you find yourself looking for someone who is your ex's opposite when dating after divorce, take a deep breath and ask yourself if this tactic is truly healthy for you. If you answer 'yes', then you're saying that there was nothing good about your spouse and that you're a poor decision maker or else you would have never gotten married to your ex in the first place!
Instead, think of the things you'd like to see in someone that would make you want to date them and look at the person in and of themselves only. If you see something in them that reminds you of your ex-spouse, decide whether that something is a good trait or an undesirable trait. Only then can you decide about that person in positive fashion. Your spouse has or had some good traits, define what they are and don't be afraid to see those traits in someone that you are dating after divorce.
Dating after divorce consideration 5: Do what you need to in order to have a positive outlook on your future after your divorce.
When thinking about dating after divorce, and all the possible fires that can go with it, keep in mind that you need to feel good about yourself to be lucid. A positive outlook on life is key to everything else, and all the future decisions that you will make after your divorce. Go and do fun things with friends and get out! You should certainly keep your guard up but don't be overly critical of everything or you may get so paralyzed be your analysis that you never actually "get in the game." Your frame of mind on any relationship - friend or not - after divorce is key factor to your happiness. Keeping a clear head and heart is a healthy thing. If you keep these considerations in mind, you'll have a much better time when dating after divorce.

Dating Mistakes
Dating mistakes can kill a dating relationship. Do you know what dating mistakes you have made? Do dating mistakes hold your relationship back? And, do mistakes like these get forgotten later on? Dating mistakes are simply things that you just don’t do right. To avoid them, though, you have to know what your partner considers a dating mistake.
Open communication is a must and this is often the worst dating mistake you can make. Talk about what you want, need, and expect in your dating relationship. Dating mistakes of this nature often lead to misunderstanding and dating can even end here.
Don’t expect too much, either. Don’t put high standards and expect your dating relationship to survive. Understanding the other person’s need is so important in dating. Don’t underestimate and don’t over estimate your date.
Don’t lie. This dating mistake will leave you out on the street!
Trust your date. If you ever plan to build a relationship, trust must be something you and your date have.
Don’t forget your date’s feelings. The most successful dating relationships are centered on people who always put their date’s feelings ahead of their own.
Dating mistakes can leave you out in the cold. If you are someone who can not over come these dating mistakes, well, just face it, dating is not something you’ll do well. Caring for another person means making sacrifices too. So, dating mistakes like these and others should be taken into consideration for forgiveness as well. Dating mistakes can and will break or make a dating relationship.

Author: Marina
Dating Site can be compared with a baker's and confectioner's. Why so? In the same manner as you see a delicious cake and decide if you will eat it a site gives an impression to the site visitors. These are profiles that make a dating site so delicious. There are so many examples but is so difficult to create your own successful dating profile. There are a few important concepts to remember.
No one even keeps the fact that pictures are the first thing anyone ever looks at in a dating profile. What people have written comes second. Will someone contest this opinion?
Successful picture lets you stand out of the enormous number of profiles at the dating site. Remember this is truly a "first impression" and you get only one chance. No doubt that your standards should be as HIGH as possible! Critical eye is so important when selecting any images to put into the site. Make sure that the pictures you show have the ability to amaze those potential visitors who will see you. Successful picture literally makes users slobber. Who never dreamt about that?
Of course, you can be a really foxy in a real life but if your profile is shabby the users - potential admirers will remember the worst of you. Just throw away bad pictures and leave only those ones that really reflect your personality in the most terrific manner. I would advise you taking two good photos of you - a headshot and a full length shot to show your ability to portray different characters, age ranges and importantly personality!
One more point to consider: not just photos attract users. One of our clients shared his opinion with me and you know I completely agree with him: "I'm always on search for the perfect profile - one that has a picture and killer essay attached. I know that there's no such thing as a perfect person, but I do think you can find a perfect profile."
Learn to write a successful notice, i.e. dating welcoming message. Creating a profile is more a psychological work than just automatic throwing your ideas without much thought. Examples would be of great help for you. Do not be lazy to spend some time viewing other profiles before posting.
Statistics show that too much of a good thing, is not a good thing! Avoid text that is too lengthy and multiple photographs of the same activity. Be short-spoken and vivid in your words. Say the most you can with as little as possible. Focus on highlights and advantages instead of tedious details. Do not open all your details and remember secrets always attract more than openness.
Any comments? It would be great to discuss them with you.
