Online Dating Safety for Women
You wouldn’t give your name, address and phone number to a strange man that you met in a bar or on the street so you should never do that online either. Play it safe. Get to know this man who could turn out to be Prince Charming before you give out any information that could make it possible for him or others to trace you. Don’t tell a stranger exactly where you work. Say that you are a legal secretary (if that’s what you are) for a mid-sized law firm….not that you work for Brown, Smith and Jones Attorneys-at-law. It is safe to tell him what city you live in but you should wait to be any more specific than that until you have been chatting and exchanging emails for awhile.
Use only the tools provided by the dating service you belong to. Most offer chat and private email on their site. Do not give out your isp email address. If you must give out an email address make it a free one such as Hotmail or Yahoo. Your isp address is traceable for anyone who wants to go to the trouble.
When the time comes for you to have your first face-to-face, make that first meeting in a public place and during day light hours. Take a friend with you or arrange for one to call you on your cell soon after the arranged meeting.
Remember…you ARE in control so do not let anyone pressure you into revealing more personal information than you are comfortable with revealing.

Online Dating For the Single 30 Something Woman
Consider online dating. You have the opportunity to read hundreds of profiles and look at hundreds of pictures in search of that “someone” that will be right for you. Maybe he will live in the same city you do…maybe he will live across the country or even in another country altogether. You aren’t limited to only those men that you come in contact with personally. The possibilities are almost endless.
“Is online dating safe”, you ask. “Aren’t the online dating sites made up entirely of perverts, sexual predators and weirdoes in assorted shapes and sizes?” the answer is, no they aren’t. Not anymore anyway. That was true when online dating first came on the scene but now it is mainstream. It’s as safe as you make it using common sense and sound judgment. Use the same caution that you would when meeting any stranger. Don’t give your real name, address or phone number until you feel safe doing so. Don’t rush into a face-to-face meeting until you are confident and then make the first meeting in a public place and during daylight hours. Give it a try…Mr. Right might be a few mouse clicks away.

Nice Girls Do It, Too!
Time: You can go through hundreds of online profiles and look at hundreds of pictures in the same length of time only one real world date takes and the screening is already done for you. You can tell right away if a guy is only looking for casual relationships or long term commitments. How many times have you worked 8 hours, gone home and spent another hour getting ready to go out then gone to the local hang-out for singles only to see the same old jerks, losers and drunks that are always there?
Money: For the price of one evening out on the town you can enjoy an entire month of meeting men from the safety of your own home….do it in your jammies or sweats and with a beauty facial working its magic.
It works. It really does work if you are willing to do the right things. Write a profile that grabs attention, post recent pictures of yourself, be fun and interesting while chatting with the men you meet on line, answering emails promptly and being on time for a pre-arranged online meeting.

The Best Way of Finding Love for Sensitive Singles
Being single is not a sin. However, for some it is a sentence of death because of the loneliness that usually accompanies it.
For instance, you are single. While walking at the park, you see young couples romancing and laughing at each. You told yourself, “I don’t need someone for me to be happy.” As you continue your walk, you again see couples, but this time they are seniors. You stop walking and stare at these old couples. They are holding each other’s hands while talking to each other. Now, you whisper, “at such an old age, they are still very happy with each other, while I don’t even have someone.”
When you encounter such an experience, you’ll probably tell yourself that being single is living a life in hell. Senior people are enjoying themselves while you are alone and empty. Perhaps you might think that life for you is unfair.
It’s not yet late. You can still do something which can turn your dull life into an adventurous, enjoyable and romantic life. How? You can use the Internet.
The Internet has introduced the world of single online dating. There are innumerable options which you can choose from to finally open yourself up to dating. There are conventional websites which will allow you to make your own personal profile and search through its millions of members until you find someone who meets your qualifications.
There are also websites that depend on computer-generated tests for compatibility to find you possible matches. There are also sites that provide the members with particular interests, principles and races..
In this vast array of dating websites and matchmakers, how will you choose the best one for you? Actually, it depends on your needs and personality.

Men Learn How To Pick Up More Women Than You Can Cope With
Here's one technique that works particularly well at nightclubs, bars and parties where there are a pool of people who do not know one another. Usually, this is one situation where guys usually feel inadequate in the presence of richer, better looking and better built guys. The great news is that none of this matters with this technique, and you can virtually pick one of the most gorgeous girl in the crowd.
To give you some idea, this technique gives you social value, which is something women look up to in a man above looks and money. They secretly want a boyfriend who is confident and very sociable that they want to take to meet their girlfriends. Being friendly and sociable is different than the class clown as you'll need to be admired too.
Making Your Presence Felt
If you're going to create a buzz, there's no better time to do it than during your entrance. Just like a celebrity walking into a room, you'll want people you know to come to you to greet you and shake your hands. Just how do you arrange for this? Well, one way to do this is to call up your friends to meet you by the entrance. However, if you want to really achieve a dramatic effect, work this out with a group of friends that could take turns in becoming 'the celebrity'. That way, they will be more enthusiastic upon playing the role of exciting friends, compared to your normal friends.
Smile And Introduce Yourself
Make like a celebrity and start smiling at anyone who is making eye contact with you in the room. Whenever you are available, walk over, smile and introduce yourself, it doesn't matter if they're guys or girls, although you can always spend longer time talking to the girls. Exude confidence by shaking their hands and making small physical contacts, such as putting your hands around a woman's shoulder when she leans over to tell you something.
Your focus of the night of course, are groups of girls that are preferably without the company of men. Trust one of them to introduce you to their friends and you'll be on your way to meeting more women than you can cope. Try to remember some of the names that you hear from from each group of people that you meet. It will usually be easier if you repeat after them when told. The night is still young so keep smiling, make friends but save your pick up lines for later.
Warm Up The Crowd By Introducing Others
So you have established some reputation in the room and people will start watching out for you and wonder who you really are. This can only work to your advantage as more girls are more noticing you and are more receptive to knowing you. As soon as any girl makes eye contact, you can walk over and do the charming thing over and over again. It gets easy once you get a hang of it.
Next, you want to work the crowd by taking it to the next level. Now that you know a bit about everyone, you can start introducing them to others as well. You may want to introduce a group of girls to another and not to other guys you have gotten to know in the party. Doing this will further reinforce the idea that you are the pulse of the party and a brilliant networker too. Plus, you are never short of opportunities to flirt with lots of girls if you follow this technique.
Everyone's Favorite
Now that you've got the crowd talking, the natural thing that they will talk about is YOU. Yes, you the celebrity, since you are the common link that they have at this stage. So you'll notice that when you come back to a particular group of people, they're all going to be wanting your attention.
This is the time where you can take your pick and spend longer time with the group of ladies you fancy and ask for phone numbers. Also, it may be a good idea to introduce your competitors at the beginning of the party to some of the girls that's outside your target. Why not show a little generosity, when you are already picking up more women than you can cope?

Mr. Perfect Does Not Exist!
It’s true that online dating, while in its infancy, was only made up of perverts, sexual predators, nerds and weirdoes but that is no longer true. It has become the main tool of the single person in every developed country in the world. Forty million people can’t all be wrong. Ask your girl friends if they have ever used online dating or are using it now. If they are honest with you, most of them have or are now members of at least one online dating site and maybe more than one. It really is the way to go to meet eligible men who want to meet you. It doesn’t matter what any of your numbers are…like age, height, weight or income either. Somewhere out there in the big wide world there is a man who will like you…..then love you….and think that you are beautiful and desirable. “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” is true. What is considered beautiful in one part of the world is completely different from what is considered beautiful in another part of the world. It’s even different from one part of this country to another.
Find an online dating site that fits your needs. Write a great profile and post a flattering picture. Start contacting eligible men on the site. Mr. Close-enough-to-perfect could be a few mouse clicks away.

How to Become a Chick Magnet
You can't go right to a woman and ask her out for a date without some sort of introduction for her to get to know you better, unless you want to be rejected. Although a woman may like what she see in you, such as your looks scent and your smile, she will be held back by her primitive sense of danger as she doesn't even know that you exist minutes ago. Plus, by being bold you set up a platform of failure for yourself, if not appearing to be desperate, and potentially make her feel scared and pushed. While you can't ask her out right away, you can put her at ease by striking up a friendly conversation with her.
It is not overrated when people tell you just how much the gift of the gab can help in the art of dating. With just a few minutes of talking you can get them to feel like they know you long enough to warrant a date. You'll want to appear confident and casual during this conversation, not tense, desperate or pushy or she can see through it instantly.
Be sure that you practice and perfect your speaking so in the actual conversation you can focus on her replies rather than how you sound yourself. This is because it is crucial to listen to what she is telling you and respond accordingly so she will feel that the two of you are communicating well. In order to make her feel special, you can compliment her on something that is particular on her, be it the earrings she is wearing, her easy going laughter or her glittering eyes. You just have to observe her for a while for these qualities before approaching her. Be honest though - surely you can find something you genuinely like about her to compliment on.
However, you must be limiting your compliments away from topics sensitive to women, such as body size, shape and weight. Certainly, your compliments should not be sexually related as well, as this will make her uncomfortable and raise her guards against you.
The best bet is to compliment a women on the first thing about them that got your attention to eventually approach her. While it is safe to compliment her on her eyes and smile, she has probably heard it before many times, especially if she is good looking. To come up with more original introduction, try complimenting her voice or her hands, at the same time avoiding body parts such as thigh, cheek, butt and breasts.
Next, you need to use what psychologists call 'the constraint of choice', a persuasive trick to get her telephone number. The trick is to give her two options when they're really only one. For example, if you ask for her phone number as you usually would, she will have two options, that is whether to give it to you or not. But then when she is given a choice whether to arrange a date now or later through the phone, you know which one she'll choose because essentially, she really have only one choice. This is a gentle strategy to persuade her to give you her contact number.
Obviously, it takes time and experience to perfect your skills. This is also why older men have more luck with women. Becoming a chick magnet is a skill that can be acquired overtime through practice as well as trial and error.

How Do I Choose the Right Site For Me?
Here are some things to consider:
(1) Cost. How much do you want or how much can you spend each month for your membership (s)?
(2) Features. Which features are the most important to you?
(A) Profile matching systems. Is this a feature you really want or would you rather decide who is right for you all by yourself?
(B) Chat and IM’s? There are websites who offer chat rooms and IM’s on their sites. Does that matter or would you be happy just sticking to private email.
(C) Outside Events…such as speed dating? Are you interested in that?
(D) Privacy. Some websites allow you to limit who can view your picture or your profile. Does this matter to you or do you want as wide exposure as you can have?
(E) Safety. There are websites who do background checks of all subscribers and certify their age, marital status and background. Would you feel safer using this feature?
These are a few things but not all things you should consider when choosing an online dating service or services. Do your homework and choose wisely for the best results for you.

Blind Date vs Internet Date
Now imagine a date with someone you met through internet dating and have been chatting online with and exchanging emails with for quite some time. First, you don’t need to be introduced. You already know this man. You are sitting in an Italian restaurant enjoying a delightful meal because you both know that the other’s favorite is Italian. The conversation flows easily as you discuss common interests. He runs marathons and loves history just like you do. You happily discuss the volunteer work that each of you is involved in. You look at your watch and discover that it is late…very late…where Has the time gone.
There is a big difference between a well-intentioned friend “setting you up” and choosing a man for yourself who shares your interests and tastes, isn’t there? Now which one would you rather have?

Top 5 Tips For Picking Up Women Online
If you want to bypass their armor and meet them for real dates that can blossom into relationships, there are a few pointers that you have to follow.
Tips #1 : Call her by her name.
Calling women by affectionate names like Honey or Babe may seem like a cool thing to men but for for for the women, this is a big turn-off. For them, the stranger that you are are either looking to 'get lucky', treating women with the same respect as some desirable objects (yes, it's that serious) or a jerk who thinks he's a casanova. Either way, it's a major red flag since she don't know who you are and you definitely do not 'own' her. Ever heard of 'I'm not your honey"? Now you understand what it means.
The best bet is to address her by her name if she did tell you, or her nickname if she didn't. It's a great way to be friendly without overdoing it. The rule is if you don't even respect her enough to use her name, you probably don't deserve a reply to your message.
Tips #2 : Do not make sexual hints or remarks about her body.
They say flattery will make a women melt, but making uncalled for comments about her body is disastrous, even when they are good comments. If anything, how good her body is is really none of your business. Apart from her eyes, everything you say about her body will wipe off any kind of relationship you've built with her before as she go "Aha! So that's what you're looking for. I knew it!"
You could be banned for making those remarks is she were to make a report to the site administrator. If this is your style of picking up women, they'll be appreciated in adult dating sites, although more often than not, you may have to pay those women to meet up. It all depends on what sort of women you want to meet. If you are serious about meeting someone special for a relationship, be a nice member on regular dating site and be tactful.
Tips #3 : Have a genuine profile.
There's a rule about profiles, that is it is better not to disclose undesirable information than to lie about it. If you are not comfortable about some questions about yourself, choose not to answer them until you know her better. Making up lies will only makes things worst if they you got found out. She may not mind that you are shorter than her but by lying, you put your integrity on the table and this may leave a bad impression on her.
You want someone who wants you for you, not for the lies and stories that you cook up. The same goes to you. Wouldn't you hate it if a girl were to disappoint you with fake details about herself?
Tips #4 : Use a recent picture.
Never use a picture back in time when you are still slim / have lots of hair / young. Remember, you want to come across as genuine and sincere, so use use recent pictures that highlight your good features in various scenes. It should be ideally a combination of photos - one close up that show your face clearly, a waist level shot if you want to show off your body or pictures of you going about your colorful life such as mountain climbing, traveling or hanging out with friends. Lastly don't forget to smile!
If you have good reasons not to publicly place your face shot, find an alternative to send it along your messages to people that you contact. Ideally, she should not have to ask for this.
Tips #5 : Ask the right questions.
You will find that women ask you questions about yourself in their messages. While many men will just answer them without much thought and without asking them back, women interprete it as lack of chemistry or interest on your part.
Knowing what types of questions to ask is also crucial to give her an impression of your communication ability, compatibility and a sense of bonding. After all, a woman need to feel that her feelings and thoughts are understood by a man before she decides that he is someone she wants to date. Keep questions as general as possible in the beginning so it don't seem that you are trying to kill her privacy. Another challenge for men when it comes to communicating with women is the fact that they are too fact-oriented when women are need to talk about feelings and experiences. Master this and you will have no trouble picking women online.

Three Great Techniques to Save Your Relationship
These rifts left unchecked can make the relationship to destruction. Lingering misinterpretations can further re-enforce any problems still left unresolved. In time you may not think of what it was you were originally angry or disappointed about, but still hold the emotional baggage that comes after a fight or sticky misunderstanding. Recognizing how to repair these things, even in their advanced stages, will help you patch up your relationship to the happiness it used to be and make both of you feel a lot better at the end.
1. Two To Tango - For a fight to materialize there must be two players. Communication and interaction with your partner are of utmost importance in a relationship. If this all of a sudden comes to a stop after a bad fight the reasons for it need to be looked into and smoothed out. Once the root of the problem is discovered you need to take steps to repair the rift between the two of you so you can both move and place the conflict behind you.
2. Keep The Relationship Fresh - It's not uncommon for things to become predictable and boring in a relationship. Zesting things up by surprising your partner or a short weekend get-away can renew the heat again. Random surprises and spur of the moment adventures will give you new memories to share and look back on. You can discover many new facets of your partner's personality you didn't know about from these random acts of excitement as well.
3. Accepting There Is Trouble - If you two are fighting, pretending everything is ok isn't going to resolve anything. Disregarding these conflicts won't make them go away and acting like they didn't happen won't, guarantee if the same thing is brought up once more in another fight, happen. Find ways that you and your partner can distinguish the troubles between you two that need to be rectified. Once you know where the difficult areas are, find a way to compromise to fix the problem.
Understanding these simple reasons misunderstandings happen will go a long way to repair the problems you have now and quickly halt any more conflicts from becoming bigger than they should be. Remember, you both want things to be peaceful, fun, and stimulating between the two of you, so when conflicts arise that means something needs to be addressed to restore that peace and comfort zone. The earlier you act to fix it the better.

5 Dos and 5 Don'ts -How to write an Attention-Grabbing Bio?
5 Dos:
1.Do accentuate your good points
Describe yourself in a string of less adjectives, but instead give examples that define your personality. Instead of writing "I'm really fun" (doesn't everyone think that they're fun), write "I like to go dancing and go to comedy clubs." If a member thinks that dancing and stand-up comics are fun, then they will think that you're fun. If a member doesn't like dancing or doesn't enjoy comedy clubs, they will disagree that you will be a fun date.
2. Do talk about what you're looking for in a relationship
This should already be part of your profile, but you should elaborate on what kind of connection you want to make with other members just to make sure that it's clear what your intentions are.
3. Do write about your interests
In your bio, you can talk more in-depth about your interests. Marking a box that says that you like to ski is different than writing that you've been skiing since you were a kid and you've participated in several competitions. Make sure you highlight which activities you are most interested in and which you occasionally enjoy.
4. Do write about your current life
Are you in school? Are you working? What are you studying in school? What kind of work do you do? Fill in some details of your current life without telling your life story.
5. Do talk about your goals
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? What are you motivated to do? A good example would be, "I'm currently studying at culinary school and my goal is to be a chef at a five star restaurant."
5 Don'ts
1. Don't oversell yourself
The last thing you want to do is sound conceited. A little humility goes a long way. Someone who presents themselves as a nice person will be much better off than someone who just sounds like a narcissist.
2.Don't talk about your ex
Don't write that you recently got a divorce because your wife, the lying hag, cheated on you. Bringing up past relationships, particularly ones that ended so badly that you resort to name calling, will make your profile sound negative and it also might look as it you're not entirely over your ex.
3.Don't write anything cheesy
Writing that you like long walks on the beach will have people rolling their eyes, not sending you an message. Also don't post poems about how lonely you are or how your heart yearns for that one special someone. If you're a romantic at heart then let if come out in your profile naturally. Don't devote an entire paragraph to how you like to stare into your lover's eyes for hours on end.
4.Don't exaggerate
While you want to make members who view your profile think that you're interesting and intelligent, don't inflate your credentials. Being dishonest about where you work or how accomplished you are might make you sound more intriguing, but when your match finds out that you exaggerated or outright lied, it will most likely be the end of the relationship, no matter how promising it started out.
5.Don't make your bio difficult to read
It's hard for a member to read a gigantic block of text in your bio. Break the text into paragraphs and try to organize them neatly. It's one thing to say that you're intelligent, it's another to show it through a well-written profile. You should stay away from WRITING IN ALL CAPS or writing LiKe ThIs. It can be confusing and sometimes downright annoying.
Also make sure that you use spell check and proper grammar. Again, if you want to claim that you're intelligent, it's going to be more difficult to believe if you can't spell simple words. It takes a minute to run your bio through spell check and it shows that you care about your profile enough to put some extra work into it. Put in as much information about yourself without turning your bio into an essay. No one wants to get eye strain while trying to read about you.

7 Tips for Attracting More Dates on Plenty of Fish
1. Create a Killer Profile
Most people can't wait to begin searching for potential dates that they end up spending little time on creating a quality profile. What they don't realize, is that by taking the time to make a great profile, you save yourself a ton of time down the road. The reason is that once you have your profile tweaked to perfection, it will do most of the work for you. This is what you want, people coming to you for dates, rather than sending out countless messages in an endless pursuit.
2. Use More Pictures
Ever hear that old saying, "a picture is worth a thousand words?" Well, Plenty of Fish allows you to put up a maximum of eight pictures in your profile, so you potentially have a worth of 8,000 words! The trick is to display a variety of different pictures that help to show your unique personality. This is exponentially more effective than what you write in your "about me" section. It allows you to quickly display your value with a single glance at your pictures.
3. Maximize Picture Ratings
Though having lots of pictures in your profile is good, you also need to make sure that the pictures are attractive to the types of people you are seeking. Sometimes we can't tell what pictures will be attractive and what won't. What better way to find out than the picture rating feature on the Plenty of Fish Dating website. All you have to do is go to the 'images' section and set all your pictures to be rated. Then after about a week, check to see how the pictures were rated. If they rate above a 6 then it's a keeper. If it's below a 6, then swap that picture out with a new one. Keep repeating this process until all of your pictures have a high rating.
4. View Favorites
One nice feature on the Plenty of Fish dating site is the "Favorites." Whenever a person is browsing for potential dates they have the option to add someone they like as a favorite. The good news about this is that you can view who has added you into their favorites. It only makes sense to use this feature and contact those that you find attractive. Because you know that these people are already attracted to you, you'll have a much better chance of success.
5. Find Your Fans
Similar to the "Favorites" feature is the "Fans" feature. This can be located on your own profile next to the "Rate My Picture" line. When you enable your pictures to be rated, which you should, you will be able to view anyone who rated you a 7 or higher. Again, this increases your dating efficiency because you can quickly find people that are already attracted to you.
6. Leverage the Forums
As discussed above, we want our profiles to do most of the work. The problem is that the profile can only do the heavy lifting if it is receiving a lot of views. So, how do we increase the traffic to our profiles? We leverage the Plenty of Fish forums.
The forums are very active and any one thread can get thousands of views. Thus, the strategy we want to employ is to write an occasional post in the forums. When you do this, people reading the forum threads can see your profile picture and click through to it. Bingo! You've just vastly increased the traffic to your profile.
7. Tell the Truth
The end result of online dating is to meet up in real life. By this time, your date will know a little bit about you and has some expectations of who they are about to meet. When they do meet you, your real life profile better match your online profile. If it doesn't, you've automatically lost your integrity, which will kill any chance you had with that person.
Sure, you may get more online responses if you lie and stretch the truth, but you only sabotage the end result. Not only that, but you wasted precious time on someone that wasn't going to be attracted to you in the first place. Stick to the truth and work with that. It's the only way to make your real life dates as best they can be.

How To Be Successful At Internet Dating
Right?
Or, you've written up what you think is an AWESOME profile and its time to submit it online and wait for a flood of responses from HOT women.
Hold on!
Don't you dare sign up to ANY Internet dating sites or write any profiles because you have something very important to do first.
What is it you ask?
Well, you HAVE to get your head on straight!
Let me ask you some questions.
-Did you just get out of a very serious relationship that ended badly?
-Are you freshly divorced or separated?
-Are you out to replace your ex as SOON AS POSSIBLE to fill a certain void in your life?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions, then do me and every woman who has a dating profile a favor... and just wait! That's right, just wait and take the time to get your life together and your issues resolved.
The reason is if you go out and start dating online and don't have your life together, then you are setting yourself up for failure. Do you think a beautiful, attractive, high quality woman wants to deal with a guy who still has issues and can't let go of an ex?
Of course not!
And the whole reason for getting into Internet dating is to attract a high quality woman for YOU, right?
Now, if you go online and spew your venom and insecurities all over the place, who do you think you are going to attract?
Yep, another woman with the SAME issues.
Why is this?
Because like attracts like when it comes to maturity and character. Take a moment and think back to all the women you've dated over the years.
Got it?
Good!
Now, which ones were a total pain in the butt?
I'm talking "SCREAM in your face every time you look at another woman" kind of pain in the butt?
Hm, if you're like me, there were a lot of them.
OK, now try and think back to what state of mind YOU were in at the time. Were things going well for you? Was your self-esteem intact? Did you really feel good about yourself?
Maybe not, huh?
During the last ten years I've met a lot of women online and one thing I've found is that when I don't have my life together, I seem to attract the most super ultra high drama queens imaginable.
And the relationship never lasts... And I wasted a lot of time.
I don't want you to waste your time. I want you to find a HIGH QUALITY woman who will be right for YOU. So, before you go online and start corresponding with anyone, take a LONG look in the mirror and ask yourself; am I ready?
Do I have it together?
Once you do the work to get these issues resolved, I GUARANTEE that you will have better results meeting high quality women online. And that's what it's all about!
Right?

How to Make Men Jealous: 3 Hot Tips To Make A Guy Jealous And Attract Attention
Learning how to make men jealous is an easy affair. As long as you know what makes men tick, you're well on your way to having your first jealous guy.
How To Make Men Jealous Tip 1: Make Yourself Look Hot!
Guys are visual creatures. They respond to what their eyes tell them--immediately. So if your man is always used to seeing you in baggy sweatpants or loose shirts, try putting on a dress on your next date.
Get a dress that hugs your curves or shows off a little bit of your best asset. This is one of the first steps on how to make a guy jealous. Seeing you in that black number will make him sit up and think.
How To Make Men Jealous Tip 2: Attract Male Attention
It's not too difficult to get other men to look at you, especially if you're wearing an outfit that really compliments your body shape. You don't have to talk to these males either. All you need to do is meet their eyes and look away.
Your partner won't even notice it. Don't forget to be confident and comfortable with yourself. That sense of security can also draw men to you like bees to honey. And since men can be quite possessive, all the attention will make his nostrils flare.
If you're single, flirting with other men subtly is a good way to get your target jealous. Don't flirt too much though because it might turn him off in the long run. Simply enjoy the attention other guys give you.
How To Make Men Jealous Tip 3: Don't Be Too Clingy
So you're already this hot, and other guys seem to have noticed as well. At this point, you have already learned how to make a guy jealous. But to really get to him, don't shower him with too much attention.
If you're always asking for his opinion on this and that, try not to ask him anything this time around. Or if you're a normally clingy person, hold yourself back and enjoy the results. Be careful not to totally alienate him though. Just pay him a little less attention than you normally would.
Learning how to make men jealous can be enriching for you, too. If you're the type who doesn't have a lot of self-confidence, these exercises might do you good and help you realize what a great gal you really are.

How To Attract Females: 4 Great Ways to Attract Women Like Bees to Honey
Here are some tips that you must keep in mind if you want to know how to attract females and win a date with the woman you've been eyeing on:
1. Develop a winning personality. You do not have to be extremely good looking for a woman to be attracted to you. Oftentimes, women prefer men who can carry themselves. Confident men earn more points over those good-looking ones who lack personality. But still, the winning formula is a combination of good looks and an irresistible personality.
2. Be confident. Women are attracted to men who exude confidence. They can tell if a man is comfortable in his own skin. With confidence comes superiority, which represents a typical alpha male personality. Despite women's fight for equality, they actually prefer men who can take control and affirm their masculinity.
3. Be a good conversationalist. Women love good listeners. But aside from this, women are drawn towards intelligent men who are also good conversationalists. Women admire men who can easily converse about interesting and meaningful topics. If you want to know how to attract females, you do not have to be smart; you only need to know how to talk with sense.
Being a good conversationalist is one of the best ways to endear yourself to the heart of your female friend. So brush up on interesting topics by reading newspapers or magazines. This ensures that you have something to say about any topic any time of the day.
4. Be sensitive about body language. One of the best ways on how to attract females is by letting them know that you are interested in getting to know them more. If the situation does not permit a conversation, use body language signs to communicate or convey your interest in her.
Once you’ve picked your target, you can give her an occasional glance or look straight in her eye. Using your body to demonstrate your interest reflects a high level of confidence on your part. For a woman, a confident man is a major turn-on.
These are just basic tips that can get you started. Again, you have to consider the fact that a woman may have a variety of preferences. Hence, it is best to understand the woman's psyche first before making your move.
More importantly, it is important for you to be sincere in your approach. Do not follow a certain tip that you read somewhere just because it claims to attract women.
Be creative in fusing different approaches until you can come up with your own. Infuse it with your personal touch until you master your own strategy on how to attract females.

3 Waring Signs That You May Be Headed For A Break Up
However, just like with many illnesses, there are often many warning signs that occur in a relationship that indicate it may be on life support.
The symptoms of an ailing relationship vary from circumstance to circumstance, but presented below are three common red flags that are often overlooked:
1. LACK OF QUALITY TIME WITH EACH OTHER
In our modern age, there are many distractions that can keep unwary couples from spending time with each other. For instance:
* Responsibilities at work
* Caring for children and/or aging parents
* Running a household and taking care of day-to-day chores
* Fulfilling various commitments to social activities
This list could go on and on. Now, please don't misunderstand my point. All of the activities listed above are very important, but so is your relationship.
Carving out quality time to spend with your partner is part of the vital lifeblood of your relationship.
2. AN EMOTIONAL " DISTANCE" FROM EACH OTHER
As stated above, spending quality time with your partner is an important necessity and keeps your relationship fresh.
But what is also even more vital is that when you are together you be truly present with each other.
You can literally spend all day in the same room with your partner, but you both are in your own little worlds...millions of miles away.
Fortunately, the solution to this problem is very simple: take a genuine interest in one another! Learn to actively listen to each other. I promise you will be amazed at the results.
3. LACK OF PHYSICAL INTIMACY
Now, for most people, when the term "physical intimacy" comes up, they immediately think of SEX!!
Well, yes, a good sex life is a cornerstone to a healthy relationship, but what I am speaking of here are little expressions of affection that are often neglected between partners.
For instance, running your fingers through your partner's hair. Touching your lover's shoulder or the small of their back. A quick kiss before leaving for work. An impromptu hug.
All of these little gestures greatly signify how much you care for one another and help to strengthen your bond...and your relationship!
A FINAL WORD
So remember, in the midst of our often hectic lives, it is all too easy to neglect our relationships. Do not allow this to happen to you!
Stay vigilant and keep the lines of communication with your lover open!
However, if you are facing a break up and you desire to win back your ex, there is still hope.
There are many resources available to give you the tools you will need to revive or restore your relationship.
In either case, increase your chances for success by having a plan!
Wishing you much success,

Dos And Don'ts On The First Date
My experience during my first date was one to reckon with. I was sweating all through and it is an understatement to say the tension was so real i nearly jumped out of my own skin! All that i had planned to say or do vanished out of my mind. I was practically blank and an explained state of nervousness. I hope you can guess how i was. Surely, i could not face my date one more time. There were no follow ups because i could not imagine dating someone who saw me in such overwhelming confusion. A first date dictates a lot about the days to come. It gives the first impression of who you are and whether there are future prospects in the relationship. It is hard to know what to expect or whether something will come out of it. To turn your first date into a successful romantic relationship. Play your cards right! How do you do this?
One big mistake repeated over and again is the tendency of the dates to fake everything. Do not pretend what you are not because this will leave you frustrated at last. You are who you are by design and you should be proud of that it makes you special. Focus on your strong points and overlook your weaknesses. Many are the times people lie about this or the other to cover up for their small cracks in life. The big mistake would be even to concentrate on your weakness! Nobody will notice it if you do not dwell on it. If you are financially unstable, do not feign imaginary wealth because in your effort to impress you will end up put yourself in a more state of confusion. You will have already spoilt the broth! Remember this is your first date and your date will soon find out the truth. To continue in the relationship, you will certainly need to keep putting up faces. You know what that means? Untold suffering which would have been easily avoided. The stress and the hassles is not worth. Simply tell the truth to pursue a relationship further after the first date.
Relax! It is not a life test. Even if you are not lucky to get this particular person, then he/she was not meant for you. Approach your first date with a sober mind, avoid being over confident and again not too careless. Create a favorable environment for friendship such that you both exchange the necessary information at will. Avoid creating unnecessary tension in that environment. Avoid making the whole dating scene a monologue and or a situation that seem as if if you are gilling your date with questions. If this happens, both parties will be tired of the first date and will be looking forward to end the cumbersome meeting. This is not the expected outcome. To avoid the uninvited tension, smile often and control yourself. A well maintained charming smile will offer a solution and eliminate the crippling uneasiness.
Another habit which ruins a first date is the tendency to avoid questions. Answer the seemingly challenging questions wisely but do not overlook some of them. As the wise men advise us, when you avoid storms and rough waters, you will never make a skilled sailor. Answer the questions well, it might save you another day. Follow my advice and you will never go wrong.

Being A Leader When Dating
What is leadership?
It is important to immediate communicate that YOU are the leader, not let and not let somebody else communicate that they are leading you! A lot of guys unfortunately and mistakenly place women on some level that they can not reach and therefore let the girl have total leadership and let them be in control of situations.
The reality is that the girl NEEDS what YOU have. Therefore YOU are the leader!
The one quality that communicates leadership, more so than everything else, is slight overconfidence.
Leadership = confidence.
Be overconfident in a charming and maybe even funny way. Don't be overtly arrogant unless you're dealing with someone who is being arrogant and overbearing.
-- Confidence" is a vague term. Confidence really means --not insecure." In other words, it means not being submissive and not seeking anyone else's approval, including women and others. Most people seek women's approval, and even other men therefore destroying confidence.
Confidence is seen in an outward way as having a calm, cool, smooth demeanor with relaxed, spread out body language. This really communicates confidence and a total lack of insecurity.
Leaders DO NOT seek anyone's approval! Say this to yourself: --I approve. You are the one who approves or disapproves of what is going on. What anyone else thinks is irrelevant because You are the one who judges. Repeat this often before going out to a bar or club.
Leadership = dominance.
Dominance simply means that YOU are in control, and others must comply with YOU.
Being dominant does not mean being domineering. Domineering is a sign of insecurity oe domineering people are trying to overtly control others. Dominant people do not overtly control or manipulate others; they control THEMSELVES and SITUATIONS.
Leadership = control.
Control means control over yourself and situations in which you find yourself. Others defer to you and your judgment.
Control does not mean to be controlling. Like domineering, controlling suggests insecurity. You should strive to be in control of yourself and situations, not to outwardly control other people.

Think Of It Like Dating
This particular marketing secret is one that is resisted by more people in business, and is also the very reason why many a business fails to generate the revenues they want and deserve.
Successful marketing is a process of building a relationship of value and trust through a series of sequenced-steps.
Think of it like dating. You would never ask someone to marry you on the first date, would you? Please, I hope not!
Marketing is like dating. You go on several dates to explore the possibility of starting a relationship. There is a sequence of steps in really getting to know a person.
So too with great marketing. The purpose then, is to get people to take a series of sequenced steps with you learning more about your expertise along the way and trusting more and more that you have the best service to offer them.
Here’s An Example:
Recently I took my BMW into a nearby dealership to have minor repairs done. As I pulled my car into their valet area, a man greeted me before I could even step out of my car saying, "A technician will be right with you. In the meantime would you just fill out your name and phone number on this form?"
Before I had the form completed the technician steps up and greets me, asking what my car's up to? Since, it's a small matter, they offer to fix it while I wait in the reception area with big screen TV's. I am offered bottled water and/or coffee.
A few minutes later a man comes in and tells me it will be less than $200 in repairs and I give him the ok to proceed. Less than 30 minutes later, the same man greets me with, "Your car is ready." I asked for my bill, which he replied, "There is no charge for today."
I LOVE this dealership by now.
As I am walking out, I hear another customer service man telling a customer, "Though your warranty has recently expired, we handled the repairs today at no charge to you." I drive away an ecstatic client.
Later, I am telling a friend the story of such exceptional service, mentioning, "When I am ready to buy a new car, there is no where else to go but back to this dealership. I feel obligated."
You see, with every sequenced-step of service this dealership offers its customers, they can take their results to the bank and they know it—it’s only a matter of time.
It's no wonder the woman who owns this company has been written up in Fortune Magazine. There is a thing called the Law of Reciprocity which states when you give first, people feel obligated to return the favor--often giving more in return. There is an unconscious need to even the score.
In marketing, statistics say that it takes at least 9, some even say 11 times, of reaching out to your prospects and customers before they will feel the urge to buy from you. When you combine the Law of Reciprocity with the Law of Repetition--now you have a powerful combination on your hands to increase your relationship-building opportunities and shorten your selling cycle.
So how can you combine both laws in your business to increase your revenues and sales results? You can start by giving people more value each time you reach out to them. Ask them what they need and want, and then give it to them in sequenced steps that lead them to becoming raving fans and life- long customers.

Dating With Confidence
Dating can be a nerve-wracking experience for many people. After all, you could be meeting your future spouse. It can also be a very vulnerable experience. The whole point of dating (usually) is to get to know someone else on an intimate level, or at least beginning this process. For whatever reason, and there are many, most people want to make a good first impression. At the very least, most people want to avoid rejection. Dating is a prime opportunity for this by its very nature. Whether you're looking for a fun night out or a long term development, rejection can occur either way, and it can be difficult to deal with. Self-doubt can come in many forms, from questioning one's intelligence to one's looks to one's ability to tell a good joke. Dating puts it all out there.
How can you increase your confidence when it comes to dating? There are a few things you can do, and certain methods are more appropriate for some people than others.
First Things First
A date is just a date. It is not the rest of your life. Yes, you may meet your future spouse, but this is far beyond the scope of the date. At this point, no matter how desperate you may be feeling to finally settle down, focus only on the date. Putting more pressure on it makes it harder for both of you. The other person is likely to sense your "desperation" (for lack of a better word), and you end up putting way to much pressure on yourself. Instead, try focusing on the date itself, not where it may or may not lead. Enjoy the time together, or, if you don't, try to avoid blaming yourself and going into the litany of self-talk that tries to convince you that you're not worth dating, you'll never find someone, and that you'll be single for the rest of your life.
Be Yourself
Yes, you've heard it many times before, and there's a reason for it. If you do hit it off with the other person, it's best if this happens when you're being true to yourself. If you're "faking" it, you're then faced with coming forward and facing humiliation, rejection, or both, or continuing the facade. This takes a lot of effort, it's dishonest, and you can't keep it up for very long anyway. So whatever your faults, try not to hide them too much. This doesn't mean that you put them all out on the table on the first date, but it also means that you don't go to extreme measures trying to hide them or pretending to be something or someone you're not.
Get Out of Yourself
To help deal with your insecurities about yourself, try focusing on the other person. Show a genuine interest in what he or she has to say. Be honest and courteous in your responses. Let the other person have the spotlight. Not only does this help keep you from focusing on your insecurities, it also helps accomplish what dates are meant to do--get to know someone else better. Ask questions, listen to the answers, and ask more. Talk about common interests when you find them. Above all, try to avoid talking about yourself the whole time or worrying too much about how you look, what you're saying, and what type of impression you're making.
Try Something Different
If the idea of sitting through a quiet dinner with someone you barely know makes you break out into a sweat, consider dating activities that involve a bit more involvement. Take a tour through a garden, go rollerblading, or do some other activity that keeps you moving. If you have something to do, you can focus less on feeling awkward and more on the conversation. It helps keep the atmosphere lighter as well, which can make you both feel more comfortable and confident.

Dating After 50
Today, there are over 30 million singles over the age of fifty. Rising divorce rates and longer life spans have caused a tremendous increase in the number of older singles. Almost forty percent of Americans over the age of fifty are single. Over half of these singles are reentering the dating scene.
As a person gets older, they become much more realistic in their expectations. Single adults over the age of fifty tend to be more flexible and unbiased in their searching. This age group is also the least likely to enter a relationship expecting something long-term.
Men and women over fifty are usually more emotionally stable than those who are younger. This makes the dating game a lot more fun. Break ups and heart breaks are more easily put into perspective rather than allowed to hinder the enjoyment of living life.
Joining back in the dating game after so many years can be quite intimidating. However, the fun and companionship is well worth the frightening leap. With so many advances and changes in the dating world, it is easier than ever to jump back in.
Many singles over fifty are attracted to the ease of meeting other singles online. The internet gives singles a non-threatening, relaxed way of meeting people from the comfort of their homes. It is an easy way to get to know one another before agonizing over a first date that may be a waste of time rather than an enjoyable evening. There are numerous websites available to place free dating classifieds and many of these are specifically for seniors.
Another popular way of meeting other older singles are specific interest groups. Book clubs, religious activities, and dinner clubs are a few of many social gatherings that can lead to great opportunities. Interest groups are a terrific way to make friends that share similar hobbies and views.
One of the biggest fears for singles over fifty is the thought of having to show their body to their partner. Everyone gains weight, wrinkles, stretch marks, and sags as they get older. It is important to be confident with yourself and remember that your partner has aged as well and is not expecting a teenage body.
The most important rule to remember when returning to the dating field is to have fun. Allow at least two years before starting to date again to prevent falling back into a serious relationship for comfort and habit. Then take your time, enjoy the companionship, and stay optimistic. Perfect relationships are not developed overnight.

Dating For What?
The word dating is derived from ‘date’. When they word “date” is uttered among youth it implies to much more than the date as a chronological reference to time in terms of time as we know and the calendar we follow. For the youth it means an appointment with a friend of opposite for an evening or night out.
For an adult ‘date’ has same meaning as the youth but it is not restricted to fun and holding hands and mumbling few niceties before the farewell. Adult dating implies to creating a space for love, romance or a long-term relationship and casual or pre-mediated hot, torrid sex encounter. Another negative aspect of dating on land is that anonymity cannot be maintained easily and squarely as you would like to at least in the initial stages.
The adult dating world is very complex and mired in confusion for many. The reason is that dating on land as such was a very frustrating affair as interaction with the opposite sex was restricted to social clubs, work place, community and few other outlets. Thus if within these venues you could not find a soul mate or a sex partner then you had to wait for eternity for that chance meeting (if ever) with a perfect person. Or catch hold of who ever you found near suitable and risk the chance of facing frustration in later period of life.
Internet has changed that, the fantastic information transmission and connectivity that it has ushered has brought about a paradigm shift in the way we date. Not only the way we date but even in our sexual attitudes and orientations. If you visit any online dating site you will realize as to how valid the above fact is. Browse the adult personals of any major dating service and you will realize how varied the expression of sexual desire and sexual preference is.
In a fast changing society the expression of word sex is no more a taboo. People now flaunt their sexuality more openly and are not afraid of experimenting with different lifestyles as is apparent in case of swinging among couples know as swingers or adult swingers. Swinger sex albeit not acceptable to traditionalist has brought about a revolution in sex lives of married couples. The aspect of sharing once wife or swapping partner for sex is now nothing new. One good look at swinger’s personals will make that apparent. Even as a single you can sex with swinger’s if acceptance is there – since there are many combinations that are popular among swingers from twosome sex to threesome sex and orgies. BDSM and fetishist also find there kind in these websites.
Similarly the alternate sex seekers like bisexual, gay and lesbians have surfaced evenly in Internet dating thanks to anonymity it provides to out personals in a world which still refers to homo sexuality as “queer”. There are now specific portal which are service providers for alternate sex seekers and are referred to as gay dating sites and lesbian dating site which are targeted on gay sex and lesbian sex.
Many portals offer the option of ethnic or religious dating on lines of your desire to date with a person of same faith or ethnicity or have interracial relationship.
You can virtually date anyone in the world as people can post their profiles on any dating service now along with their photos. You can interact with people you like using online chat or live webcams to get to know them better before you take the plunge of meeting them. This will take you to a long term relationship a matrimonial alliance or a rollicking sex date what ever you wish.
Hence when you visit an online dating site make sure of what you wish for and accordingly choose a site that is focused on singles dating, sex dating, gay lesbian or swinger’s sex or even just friendship. Then there are matchmaking services or adult friendfinders that are region specific in case you are looking for dating within your country or in a local area. There are portals which offer everything under one roof making your task easier.
Be careful there portals that offer everything and deliver nothing. They will cheat on your credit cards and most of the profiles posted would be fake or inactive. Prefer sites which give free registration thereby giving you a chance for exploring the site before you commit financially. In most of the trusted sites privacy, anonymity and safety is assured. Just be focused what kind of dating you are in for to have a successful online dating experience. BingO!

Go Carefully Into Dating
Whether you are fifteen or thirty-five, dating is something that should be thought about and done carefully. There are few if any areas of your life that you should proceed with as much caution in as dating.
Before anyone thinks of dating someone else, they should take some time to evaluate themself and their current life situation. Someone with large questions about who they are or about what want to do in life should be hesitant to enter into a dating situation. The more you know yourself and the better your life is before you begin dating, the better chance you have that dating will add to the quality of your life. Ask yourself hard questions about who you are and about the kind of dating relationship you hope to have.
It is equally important to consider carefully the kind of person that you hope to begin a dating relationship with. The more you know yourself, the better you will understand what kind of person or personality will best complement who you are in a dating relationship. We have all heard it said that "opposites attract," and in many cases this is true. So, for example, if you tend to be an outgoing person who loves attention, the chances are high that you should not begin dating someone with a similar personality. The person you choose to date should be someone that shares common interests and values with you. There is nothing better than dating the right person at the right time and for the right reason. However, there is equally nothing worse than dating the wrong person at the wrong time for the wrong reasons.
A third major thing to consider before you begin dating someone is your expectations for the relationship. It is always wise to enter a new relationship with an understanding of the things you expect both to give to it and to receive from it. Be honest with yourself in this process. If you expect to spend time with the person you are dating every single day, then you should let that person know your expectations from the start. Or if, perhaps, you are looking to date someone while continuing with other things in your life, then be honest about that upfront as well.
Dating can be one of the most fun and beneficial things in life. It is always wise to be thinking long term and big picture when you enter a dating situation. Do not start dating someone that you know for sure you could never marry and spend the rest of your life with. So take your time and answer some serious questions before you get yourself into a serious dating relationship and realize it is wrong.

Why You Should Avoid This Emotional Love Affair
You thought you were the last person they would find if they went looking for an emotional person. You are now confused since you met this person who tapped your feelings and now you are all emotional. Which route should you take when it turns to be an emotional love affair? Everything you do turns out to be contrary to your expectations. You are too emotional. Emotional love affairs turn out to be so hurting. It takes long to collect the pieces and move on because they rarely last. Every issue in an emotional love affair ends up in a mess. Keep your emotions in check since they are the same ones which brought you together. Love as an emotion can confuse human mind and beats all intellect. Be wise.
Emotional love affairs come crashing down since intense feelings impair the level of thinking. A previously happy affair takes a turn and becomes frustrating and saddening. Most emotional love affairs use the tit for tat phenomenon. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind so to speak an emotional love affair. It looses direction and focuses on revenge. What do you think will happen when i feel so hurt that my partner has failed to call me. I might be dying to hear him talk i do not care about what even if it is nonsense but just his voice. I will not call him though i will be hurting. Imagine if he also gets stupidly emotional and reacts the same. The affair will simply be a game of shifting blames and on the way to the rocks. To avoid an emotional love affair, do not take revenge to more than loving your significant other back. Just love him/her.
I think i do not care if you love me so much it makes you cry all the time. The problem comes in when you hurt me by the little things you do and it makes me cry. It is not worth if i hate how much i love you. It will stop being a love affair to a war affair. An emotional love affair pushes each partner to fight with their feelings. The more you fight with yourself and reject your intense feelings the more they hit back at you. You will try and fail miserably most of the times. If you get lucky enough not to reach exhaustion, you will succeed in separating with your partner because logic dictates that such an emotional love affair is harmful to your social life. At the end of it you will have scars in your heart which you might take to the grave. To avoid this, do not encourage an emotional love affair at all costs.
An emotional love affair sabotages communication. When you are too emotional, language tends to hit the wall and expression takes a back sit. Without communication, misunderstanding is unavoidable. Please if you notice your partner is going down that route, talk about it. It is in a word. You will never guess it unless you keep talking. Be slow to anger and an emotional love affair will be news to you.

Advice on Dating: Your Date Is Not Your Ex
That is until tonight. They have come to the conclusion that they just cannot take it anymore. Every date so far no matter how it starts always ends the same way. The conversation with out fail comes back to your ex.
When you date says something it reminds you of that time your ex said the exact same thing. When you date laughs it is so reminiscent of how your significant other guffaws. The way they wear their hat or sip their tea brings back all of those memories of your ex and unfortunately you share that information with your current date.
No wonder they are not speaking to you. That changes when you drop them off in front of their house. They tell you in no uncertain terms that they do not appreciate you singing the blues about your past relationship. If you want to carry a torch find but do not expect them to help you keep the flame burning. They did not sign on for that and in reality neither did you. Whether you admit it or not the bottom line is you went out with this person to get a fresh start.
Therefore it is important to give yourself, your date and and your ex a break for a few reasons:
1. It's Over
Why are you dating this new person? Because your relationship with your ex is over. Either go forward with your dating life or make the effort to get your ex back. But understand you cannot have both. Accept the fact that it is over and reintroduce yourself to the dating community.
2. It's Boring
Besides resenting the fact that your ex is taking up their time, your dating partner is going to grow tired of this quicker than you realize. The truth is they have gone out with you multiple times which shows you how they feel about you but their patience is not unlimited and neither is their attention span. Going on and on about your ex is either an invitation to end the date prematurely or watch them doze off.
3. Self Sabotage
If you feel you are not ready to date than do not date. There is nothing wrong with taking time off to get yourself together before deciding to reconnect with the dating scene. Going out there knowing that your main focus is still on your ex is asking for trouble in the short and long term.
4. Shoe Meet Other Foot
Think about it. You start talking about you ex and then your date start talking about their ex. Next thing you know four people are double dating but only two are sitting at the table. That makes things a little crowded including not having time to reconnect with each other because you are spending so much time trying to relive memories. Needless to say if your date was the only one talking about their ex, it would not take you long to get very tired of it and them
You had great times with your ex but for whatever reason the two of you are not together anymore. Be thankful for the good times you shared but do not romanticize the entire relationship. The fact is that meeting and dating someone new means the relationship has the potential to equal or surpass what you previously enjoyed. You owe it to yourself to make the most of it.

Dating Scams - Losing your Mind and Everything Else
Online dating scams have always been around. While there are desperately lonely people there are always going to be unscrupulous operators targeting them. However, the Nigerian scam has one major difference. These guys are getting these unsuspecting women to hand over life savings, mortgage their homes, and take out loans. Many of these online bandits are successfully ripping women off in just a few weeks after contact.
You might think it's absurd to hand over your mortgage to a perfect stranger, but people do it. So, how to know if you are about to lose your home? Any new love who starts sad stories about dying mothers, needing cash for immigration lawyers or visas, or wanting the cash for the plane fare to meet with you should be treated with extreme caution.
There are plenty of ways to stall any monetary commitment - state your sympathy with his current position and announce your terribly poor cash-flow position. Make something up. You have lost your job, you need root canal, your cat needs chemo, you have a tax bill, whatever. Tell them you have a bad credit rating, anything. If the emails abruptly stop, you know you have just gotten rid of a financial parasite who was only going to empty out your bank account.
Don't make yourself a target for these online scammers. When you are starting a new online romance be careful what you say. Do you really think that a potential partner should ask if you own your own house...no there isn't. Don't be too specific about vacation destinations. The fact that you have household help, your children are in boarding school, and your ex-husband is filthy rich, are all details that others do not need to know right away. These sorts of little clues immediately tell someone else that you may have plenty of dollars to throw in their direction. Use some discretion. When it comes down to it, you'll be happy with someone who loves you, not your finances?
Anyone wanting a plane fare to meet you should be approached with a subtle, "how about I come and meet you?". A real potential partner will be OK with this but a cowardly scammer will be very unhappy.
Someone announcing their love for you in the time that it takes to clean your teeth, should be viewed suspiciously. Do not allow your heart to rule your finances. Would you give your money to a stranger? Would you take out a bank loan for a guy you have just met in a bar?
If you think you want to proceed with what might be a scam, make sure you're comfortable in perhaps losing any money you send. How much money can you really afford to wave good bye to? How much of a loan can you really afford to repay? This is the amount you should be sending to your new love in Nigeria. At least then you will only be heart broken and not dead broke as well.

Some Important First Date Tips You Should Use
Keep in mind that it's only a date. You will not be undergoing a life sentence here. It will not decide who you will be with for the rest of your life unless you decide to marry your date. Just enjoy it for the meantime. Take pleasure in what you will be doing for the rest of the 3-4 hours you will be together. This kind of initiative will ease you from the pressure and you will seem more relaxed and look more attractive because of the mature aura. If you believe in yourself that you have the confidence, the knowledge and the guts to carry out a simple date, your date will be thinking the same thing too and will be most likely impressed with you.
Know how to dress. There are several things to consider when choosing something to wear to impress a woman. First, be sure that your clothes are clean and free from creases. Make sure that your clothes fits you perfectly and not a size smaller or bigger. Investing funds on clothing that actually fits and looks good on you will not only help you appear attractive but also brings out the confidence that you have.
In whatever you do, do not look down. Looking at the ground or at your feet may give an idea that you are very uncomfortable in what you are doing. It may also imply that you are not being truthful. You can observe this when it's done by other people and it does not look good at all. If you feel uneasy, look around gradually and effortlessly. Being suave and lacking squirmy actions are the most important factors. Squirming and fidgeting will make you look jumpy which is very unappealing.
On conversations, being able to hold one is not enough. It's very important that you keep your date interested in what you are speaking about. Do not talk about yourself all the time and appear self-centered. Women hate that in men. Make her laugh and try your best to have her enjoy talking to you. There are countless things you can talk about to enjoy your conversations.
Bear in mind that the first date is supposed to be enjoyable. You are starting to get to know this person and vice versa. The first date should not be something that is similar to a conference with your superiors at work. So just relax, be yourself, and most importantly, enjoy each other.

How to Get Your Ex Back
It is very important that you do not try to communicate with your ex during the first two weeks after a break up. You both need time away from each to let things settle. Emotions need die down before you try to talk to each other again. If you try to communicate too soon when feelings are still raw and hurt, then you will probably just end up arguing. If you really want to try to get back with your ex, you have got to let things chill out for a couple of weeks.
Now, when you do talk with your ex, there are a few things you must keep in mind. Certain things that you say could drive him or her away again. Never say things like "It's been so long since I have seen you." You do not want to send the impression that you are missing him or her. If your ex says he misses you first you can respond with something like "You know, it has been a while. What's been going on with you.?" This will make it appear that you are doing alright without him or her. It will peak your ex's curiosity as to why you haven't been pining away.
At no time in this initial conversation should you bring up past problems. Do not question why he or she left you. If you start getting angry and asking for an explanation, you can be sure that you will never get your ex back. The best advice here is to just be yourself and act as if this is the first time you two have met. There was something about you that attracted your ex to you in the first place. Acting as if nothing ever happened will allow your ex to see that side of you again.
So if you desire to get your ex back, you have got to play it cool. Give him or her some space. Allow time for things to cool down. Go out and have some fun. When you do meet up with your ex again, just be yourself like nothing ever happened. This is the best way of improving your chances of getting your ex back.

How To Escalate To A Sexual Level - Fast!
Many guy's stumble at this point due to a number of factors. Either they are too afraid to make the move and commit themselves due to the fact that they may get rejected or they just don't know what to do. The fact of the matter is that you need to constantly escalate things between you and the girl you are pursuing or you are just going to end up in the "friends zone".
So what do we do? Well first things first here's what not to do! Do not just pounce on her and try to shove your tongue down her throat! That won't work! Do not try and grab a handful of her ass at the first opportunity! Amazingly this wont work either! You need to take things to the next level smoothly! Smooth being the operative word! We're not aiming to be best friends with the girl in question. We want to take things sexual. So don't treat her like your best drinking buddy. Idle chit chat about subjects such as why the economy is failing or why she hasn't got a boyfriend yet are not likely to spike her sexual interest in you or have her feeling sexual emotions. You need to challenge her and get her to constantly prove herself to you. Get her talking about subjects that have her feeling intense emotions. Subjects such as her passions. What does she love to do. Whats most important to her in life. What does she really desire? These are the things that are going to escalate things quickly.
Teasing is a great way to escalate sexual tension. Bust her balls a bit. Get her involved in playful fighting. Tease her until she playfully hits you back for your cheek. This works great! Always keep in mind though that we want to keep things playful and lighthearted. You don't want to offend her in any way. Try to stay away from the subjects she holds most dear to her. Tease her on general subjects that you could tease any number of people on i.e T.V shows she watches, general taste in music. Become the type of guy who is generally "touchy feely". Not creepy! What I mean is that there are many people who are constantly touching you in a playful, friendly way when they are talking to you. They will touch you on the arm when talking to you, place a hand on your back when leading you somewhere, hug you when you meet up. If you are known as this type of person it will not be seen as creepy when you try to escalate things by way of correct "kino".
Use playful kino to play things safe at first. Playfighting, poking her, picking her up etc are all examples of playful kino. Incorporate this into general conversation and it also acts to add to your persona of being a generally fun guy to be around.
To escalate things further we need to add a little "sexual kino". This can be seen as things like touching her hair, holding her hand and putting your arm around her. This will escalate things to a sexual level quickly if done correctly and she will know at this point exactly what your intentions are.

To Make Up Or Not to Make Up
Guys who say YES - A lot of guys dig a girl who knows how to beautify themselves. The keyword being beautify, not "whorify." Do you know what virtually all guys think of those max extension mascara brush thingies? We think they're stupid. Useless really. When we lean in for that 1st kiss, do we want to have our eyes potentially blinded with lashes that are longer than fingernails? Eyes shadow can be pretty, but only if it matches your eyes (yes, we'll admit that we actually pay attention to that). Lipstick can be attractive but a lot of guys think it's just down right messy. No matter what the ads tell us, we'll always think that make-up is always a bit on the excessive side. We like/love you for the beauty you already possess, not that which you have to constantly re-apply. So for guys who say "yes", we like it subtle and we like it sparingly. We want to see more of YOU and less paint.
Guys who say NO - My hands up. I'm in this category. I like my girl's real and down-to-earth. I will always see make-up as redundant, if not a hindrance to natural beauty a girl has. If you've read any of my other articles, you would know that I value flaws and imperfections in females. It's not that it shows the girl is lazy and can't be bothered hiding her imperfections; to me, it means that the girl is aware that they're there and rather, is saying, "this is who I am, take it or leave it, I'm not going to let you judge my worth." Confidence is the best make up a girl can have. Sure it might not be as easy to put on, but at least it's cheaper.
So. There you have it. The great debate, to make up or not to make up, solved! Well, not really. A lot of girls are going to read over this article and think nothing of it, but if you're determined to improve yourself for the better, then congratulations on taking the first step and finding this information the web. I've written it specifically for inquisitive girls who know they can be better. Heaps of guys are waiting for girls like you. So, whether you apply it now, or close the mascara box, just go out, have fun, be yourself, be sexy and confident and the guys will totally dig that.
