Online Dating is Not a Contest

Online Dating is Not a Contest Online dating is not a competition between competing males for the attention of a female. Grow up. Change your mind set from “winning” to “searching”. This isn’t high school. You are all grown up and have been for quite some time, now. Your attitude is the most important asset you have. You should like yourself and not concentrate of all of the things that aren’t YOUR idea of the perfect guy…the one the all women want. What is that women want, you ask? That’s the age old question. Being of the female persuasion myself, I can tell you a few things women want and don’t want. Women want a man to be confident…NOT an arrogant jerk. There’s a big difference. You need to like yourself and not be self depreciating but you don’t need to come across like you believe that you are a gift to them from God and have just fallen from the sky. They don’t want you to think that THEY just fell from heaven and are some kind of perfect being, either. They can’t live up to that expectation. Women want a communicator. The “strong silent type” really isn’t appealing at all. They think you probably don’t have an original thought in your head and you probably haven’t heard a word they said, either or that you just don’t care what they said or didn’t even hear what they said. They want you to be interesting enough to want to know more about you and they want you to think that they are interesting enough to ask intelligent questions about what is important to them, too. Women do NOT want to be a prize to be won. They don’t want to be a trophy. They want to be the ONE woman that you want to be with. Author---Charles Burns

Long Distance Dating

Long Distance Dating Long distance relationships and dating occur when two people live far apart from each other and are unable to see each other but on holidays, weekends, or on vacation. Long distance dating can be very difficult for some relationships if the people want to be together more often. Some people enjoy long distance relationships because it gives them the time apart from each other to fully appreciate each other when they are able to be together. Some long-distance dating may not last a long because they are too difficult or one of the people in the relationship may end up moving closer so they can be together. When couples experience long distance dating they are usually able to see each other on the weekends if the distance isn’t too far apart. If the couple is too far away to be able to see each other on the weekends then they will use their vacation time from work and see each other on the holidays. Whenever they can get the time available they will see each other. Many people take advantage of airline miles and earn free tickets to fly and see their significant other when they are long-distance dating. The couples are able to communicate by phone, email, and other methods, but they can only see each other when one of them are capable of traveling. Long-distance dating can be difficult for some people if they find they want to see more of the other person and the distance is just too far. However, it can be good for a relationship to have the time apart because when they do see each other the two are extremely happy to be together and they don’t take each other’s time for granted.Long Distance

Be Warned About Internet Dating

Be Warned About Internet Dating Summary: I hear people talking about internet dating all the time. I have a large number of friends and co-workers that are obsessed with finding the right person online. It has almost become comical to me the way a person will go home after work at night and spend their entire evening looking for someone to love online when they live in a city full of great people. Isn't it a bit ironic to stay out of society in order to find the right person in society to spend your life with? I hear people talking about internet dating all the time. I have a large number of friends and co-workers that are obsessed with finding the right person online. It has almost become comical to me the way a person will go home after work at night and spend their entire evening looking for someone to love online when they live in a city full of great people. Isn't it a bit ironic to stay out of society in order to find the right person in society to spend your life with? I'll admit, I do know people that have met through internet dating that are now enjoying amazing marriages, but I'd like to suggest that the success rates are far less than we'd like to believe. Most people that look to internet dating as their only source of hope are still looking weeks, months and often years later for that special someone. You and I both know that life is far too short to be spent online wishing and hoping that your perfect match will somehow sign up for the same internet dating service that you have signed up for. My desire is simply to warn anyone who feels like jumping into the internet dating scene and signing up. At least take some time to really ask yourself why internet dating seems to be your only option right now. If you are too busy to meet people, then do you really think you'll have time to build and maintain an online dating relationship? That is doubtful I think. Or if you're afraid to get out and meet strangers, then is it really a good solution to jump online and meet strangers? I didn't think so. It is vital that you know your reasons and your goals for internet dating before you begin the process. If you have checked your goals and motivations and still feel like you want to head in the direction of internet dating, then do it with caution. Be aware that not everyone online has the same integrity or the same intentions. So be careful about who you are meeting and about what you're expectations are in the process. Don't make any rash decisions and decide to fly around the world to meet someone that you haven't even seen a photo of online. Just be wise, go slowly, and be yourself! One of the biggest problems with internet dating is that people are able to hide online and never have to fully be themselves.

Online Dating-- A New Art Form

Online Flirting – A New Art Form Many of the same things work for online flirting that work for “brick and mortar” flirting and all relationships begin with successful flirting. Flirting is an art that requires oozing confidence without being OTT. If you go too far, she will label you “slimy” If you don’t go far enough, she will label you “wimpy”. So how do you achieve that point half way between slimy and wimpy and do it online without using eye contact or body language? All you have is a computer an internet connection and membership in an online dating site, right? 1. Have fun! Be light-hearted, funny and entertaining. Make her eager to talk to you again. Flirting is playful. 2. Ooze confidence. Successful flirts have a positive outlook on life. You need to transmit the “feel good” factor. An optimistic attitude attracts females like honey attracts flies. 3. 3. Compliment her…and do it often and sincerely. Nothing opens doors like making her feel good about herself. She will want to spend more time with you and if she pays you a compliment say “thank you”. Do Not be self depreciating. 4. Listen…listen….listen. Pay attention to what she says and ask appropriate questions. Get her to open up and talk about herself. Make her feel like she is interesting and that you are interested in her. Works wonders! 5. Don’t be rude. Flirting does not include being sexually explicit nor taking offence if the lady isn’t responding to you. If she isn’t interested, take the hint and move on to the next prospect. If you get a lot of rejections, you should probably consider a different approach. 6. Send an email after you chat. This ranks right up there with sending a thank you note for a gift and it is vital to successful flirting. Don’t try to go too fast. Flirting is the first step to a successful relationships.

Problems With Dating.

Problems With Dating Most dating problems occur because either the two of you are not compatible or you are not communicating enough. Other problems may be because the two of you just are not right for each other. Communication is the most important thing when you are dating. Most problems occur because the two of you are having difficulty expressing your feelings or you aren’t being clear about what you want. When you both communicate with each other properly it is clear to both of you if you are compatible and have the same likes and dislikes. You cannot force a relationship if the two of you are too different or you have different goals for the relationship. It is important to communicate about what you need and want from your relationship so you both are satisfied and you are not having disagreements about things. Another thing that can cause problems with dating is if the two of you are not compatible. Communicating properly will tell you if you are or not. Compatibility can be difficult if one person in the relationship is needier than the other person. If one of the people wants their space and the other is very needy then it can make it difficult for dating. Dating problems occur when communication skills are not up to par. You have to be comfortable with the person you are with so you can talk to them. Being comfortable and being able to communicate will show you how compatible the two of you are. If you don’t have these two things then you might just consider a good friendship.

Online Dating Can Be Tough

Online Dating Can Be Tough Here’s a little secret that those of the female persuasion keep from us guys: Women, even very beautiful women, like to be approached by a confident and interesting man. Are you surprised? It’s true…and confident and interesting are much more important than looks to ladies of all ages, too. That’s true for internet dating, as well as, dating in your brick and mortar world but we’re talking about internet dating here…so back to the subject at hand. Once you have joined an online dating service, you will find that there a lot more men than women and that the men are much more likely to browse profiles and make initial contacts than women. Yes, it’s a woman’s world…still. It’s “traditional” for men to make the first move. It always has been and it always will be. Some things never change. That’s why your profile and picture are so important. Remember…confident and interesting….and that does not translate to cocky and self-centered. It’s important that your profile lets people know that you have friends you care about and that you are passionately interested in a variety of things…not JUST sports. Another thing about that all-important profile….please don’t start it with, “I’m the guy your mama warned you about”. You will have just shot yourself in the foot with that line. Another one to never use is, “I could be the man of your dreams”. The lady HOPES you are but she will be the judge of that…so don’t insult her intelligence. Remember….exude confidence and interesting and you will find that lady you have been looking for…or she will find you. Won’t it be nice to have the ladies contacting you instead of you having to do everything? If you write a great profile that stands out in the crowd, that will happen Author, Charles Burns.

Are Online Relationships Cheating-Yes Or No

Are Online Relationships Cheating - Yes Or No If your significant other seems to be spending a significant amount of time online, you may wonder what is going on and are online relationships cheating? For the most part that depends on you and your relationship. If you and your partner are OK with the other having a lot of online friends, regardless of gender, then it's not cheating to the two of you. If, on the other hand, one or both of you considers a deep connection with another person either online or off to be cheating than yes it is. You and your partner define your own relationship. The internet, and all the social sites that are constantly popping up, have made it a lot easier to find other people to connect with. That can be a great thing. It's fun to reconnect with old friends you haven't seen or heard from in years. The problems can come when your partner seems to enjoy their online friendships more than they like spending time with you. While it may not be technically cheating, it can definitely put a serious strain on your relationship. If your partner is forming an emotional attachment with someone else online, that doesn't leave a lot of room for the two of you. Your relationship can start to get pretty crowded if that starts to happen. If you believe that your partner is spending too much time online the best course of action, in most cases, is to talk to them about it. The operative word here is 'talk'. Not scream, nag, or accuse. Just explain to them that you miss them and you don't feel like the two of you are connecting the way you used to. Suggest some time when the two of you can get together one on one. If you present this request to your partner in a calm, loving way you can tell a lot about what they're really thinking based on their response. For example, if you aren't accusing your partner of doing anything wrong yet they still get defensive it could very likely mean they have a guilty conscience, maybe they really are doing something they know they shouldn't be. If they get angry that you've asked them to cut back on the amount of time they spend online than it's highly likely that your partner has 'met' someone new. Most people would consider this a form of cheating even if the two people haven't met in person. No one wants their partner to be thinking about someone else too often. If that is the case your relationship could be in real trouble and in most cases it's best to try to address the issue head on and see if the two of you want to work it out. If you're wondering; are online relationships cheating, then it's possible you already have a problem with your relationship. Try to talk to your partner and find out where they are coming from. If either you or your partner is having romantic thoughts about another person, and that's never a good sign.

Alternatives to Online Dating Sites.

Alternatives to Online Dating Sites If you are a fan of online dating sites, then you probably know the most popular ones inside and out. You may even be the type of user that check or updates the accounts every few hours or days. Successful yet? Chances are good that if you have been using online dating sites for a number of years or months and have not found any success, you are either just not working them to their fullest capacity or you are not on the right sites. The good news for online dating site visitors is that there are very viable and popular alternatives. In addition to the plethora of available sites, there is a host of sites that are not full-service dating sites, but that still provide the connectivity and relationship start that you may need. Among those sites are forums and chat rooms. When you use forums and chat rooms, your communications with others is public. In other words, whatever you say in the chat rooms or on the forums is free for others to look at. For this reason, you will not be able to get terribly familiar with your crush, but you will be able to get a good idea of what your crush is like – at least in “public.” If you find that you and your crush have a lot in common on the forum and chat-room sites, then you may wan to invite him or her to communicate with you through email or instant messaging. When you are able to communicate personally, it is likely that you will be able to develop that relationship that you would otherwise would through an online dating site. When looking for chat rooms and forums, start with sites and forums that interest you. If you are into auto racing, then look for auto racing forums or chat rooms. Similarly, there are chats and forums available just about anywhere for singles. You can visit local singles chats or chats for singles that are interested in the same topics. As you begin to interact on those chat rooms and forums, keep in mind that you are one of many who will also be viewing and participating in the forum. Therefore, you may have to look a little harder to meet others and to make yourself visible to your potential crush. However, for some people, chat rooms and forums are the most appealing way to go…especially when first meeting people online. In general, though, chat room and forums do not provide the same sort of personalized and targeted dating opportunities. For this reason, many people prefer to enroll in subscriptions to online dating sites. Your subscription to online dating sites will likely offer links to open chats and forums, which may help you to meet a bunch of other subscribers on a personal level. Experiment with a bunch of different online dating options and choose the method that seems to work best for you. Some people prefer to put themselves out there on an online dating site while others enjoy using the back-door entry approach that comes with chat rooms and forums.

How to answer to these question to make sure that you are getting her attention and interest? Just try using next lines: 1.When she is questioning you about your marital status just say: “Well, my dog hates the way I do coffee, it hopes I will find someone else that will make him a coffee every morning” 2. What is your age? “I am a little child... when I am sleeping, a mature man when I am making decisions and an exploring teenager when I have the opportunity to talk with an interesting woman” 3. Do you have children? It is a simple question to reply but you can say more than yes/no, and earn some points. So..

I'm still looking for the woman willing to take the risk of having good looking kids, like me. :))“ 4.What happened with your ex ?

Make her curious, with every question you are answering her you have to make her want to know more about you. Just be different, be original. Good luck and have fun!

3 Online Dating Mistakes to Avoid.

3 Online Dating Mistakes to Avoid While you search the internet for that special lady…the one of your dreams…your soul-mate…the other half of yourself, you can do a lot of things right. Sadly, you can, also, do a lot of things wrong….things that will guarantee failure and a broken heart. Out in the “real” world, being aggressive, demanding perfection and even little white lies are all ingredients for success. However, those same qualities are killers when you are dating online and off line, too, for that matter. There is a big difference between being aggressive or confident and being too aggressive, over-confident, or just plain sleazy or slimy from a woman’s point of view. If you push too hard for a face-to-face, you will come across as too aggressive…maybe even, scary. Try to remember that you are not trying to close a business deal and keep the relationship progressing at a slow but steady pace. Patience is the key. Nobody is perfect. We are all flawed in some way or another…and that includes you, as well. If you expect the woman to be absolutely perfect and demand that, you will always be disappointed. Demanding perfectionism in your work is one thing. Demanding perfectionism from a friend, co-worker or a lady you are interested in is not just fine. It won’t happen. Expect flaws and just deal with them. Decide the ones you can live with and those you can’t. Little white lies and false fronts won’t work. Be honest from the beginning of a relationship. Write your profile. Make it interesting but don’t make false statements. The truth will come out eventually anyway. If you say you are a lawyer who makes a million bucks a year and you are really an electrician that makes $75,000, you have set yourself up for failure. Remember…don’t be too aggressive, expect to ever find perfection or put on a false front. Author: Charles Burns
