Posted on 12. Dec, 2007 by admin.

For a long time it was stated that when you make someone understand that you like him/her, that person will automatically like you in turn. Well, it was recently discovered that this rule of reciprocal attraction needs to be rectified a little bit for romantic relationships.
The statistics claim that the more you show your romantic desires towards all the people you like, the more they tend to reject you. (Could the reason be the fact that in these cases you look too desperate and obsessed?)

A New Kind of Dating Nowadays

Posted on 28. Nov, 2007 by admin.

Time has become a social problem nowadays, you often hear someone saying, “I don’t have time for this and that”. Unfortunately, this running out of time is being reflected on our personal life too. One of the solutions to this problem is “speed dating” – a new kind of dating, of which the following article will inform you.
Considering the high rate of divorces among the population and the joint between love and marriage, why reckon dating to be sound and problem less?
Let me introduce you the notion of speed dating, the one that allows one to meet up to ten new people in one single evening.
Each date lasts only seven minutes, that’s why speed dating is so different from other typical meetings of new people. Another major difference between them is that, unlike the meeting of singles in bars, for example, people who use speed dating know perfectly well their objective.

Older Women Dating Younger Men (Part II)

Posted on 05. Aug, 2007 by admin.

The statistics say today that every other marriage ends in divorce, which leaves single many men and women in their 40s, 50s and 60s. If men in their 40s and up want to date only women in their 20s and 30s (which is very frequent nowadays), who should the women in their 40s and up date then? Unlike men dating younger women, women dating younger men are still considered to be “cradle robbers”. Now, is this fair? A mature man can do whatever he wants, while a mature woman “must know her age and place”. Just because a woman is mature that doesn’t mean she has to sit in a chair and knit all day long. The mature and modern woman of today doesn’t care at all about “what the neighbors might say”, she is strong and self-confident, and she perfectly knows what she’s looking for and what does her happiness consist of. So, society should get used to the idea of older women dating and marrying younger men, for older women need to be happy too and they really don’t worry about what people say when they don’t agree with their way of thinking and doing things.

Use Technology to Connect, Not Disconnect!

Posted on 23. Jul, 2007 by admin.

Nowadays we live in a high technologically advanced world. Technology helps us to save a lot of time, to make communication much easier, to hear a lot of world news just staying in front of our computer or TV, without exiting our houses. Maybe we don’t realize it, but technology has a big role in our lives, just try to imagine a day without electricity: no light, no TV, no computer, no machine working in the house, it seems to be terrible, isn’t so? Nowadays we can make the acquaintance of people from other countries, seeing each other through webcams, without visiting that country, and it’s much easier to make friends through communication technology than to approach a foreigner on the street and ask his/her name. These technologies became usual for us, but unthinkable for our forefathers.
Although it seems very attractive, interesting, and useful, it has some disadvantages. For example people may get used to chatting and forget about real, natural relationships, person-to-person interaction which has a very important role in our life: touching, feeling each other, making families- the foundation of our society. We shouldn’t abuse with the technology, otherwise we’ll live in a virtual world, making virtual love and forgetting about our destination on the Earth. That’s why we recommend you to find a balance between high-tech chatting and good old fashioned one-to-one communication. This balance helps us to make strong and lasting relationships with our lovers, friends or family.
There you can find three ways of using efficiently communication technology to connect with new people or just to stay in touch with your old friends. But we’ll also try to warn you about the risk of the abuse of technology. Don’t forget about life contact!

Three-Five-minute speed date has couple rushing to the altar

Posted on 01. Jul, 2007 by admin.

His claim to make the world’s best lasagna may have closed the deal. Or it could have been his poetry recitals? She was also amused by his doodles of his nasty sporting injuries on a napkin.

Whichever one of his qualities caught her eye, he certainly made an impression. A few text messages, a two-and-a-half-hour telephone call, a dinner date or three and just 20 days later, they became engaged.

When they walk down the aisle for a traditional Catholic service at St Francis Xavier’s in Hereford in August, Mario Bassi and Caroline Eversham will become one of the first couples in Britain to marry after meeting at a speed dating event.

Speed dating involves 20 to 25 single men each being given three-five minutes to woo each of an equal number of single women. Those who later express a mutual interest are put in touch with each other by the organizers.

The phenomenon, an American import, took off among young, wealthy and time-poor Londoners early last year. Now close to 10,000 people of different ages and backgrounds attend events in over 40 British towns and cities every month.

Things You Should Look For If Your Date Isn’t Interested

Posted on 19. Mar, 2007 by admin.

This occurs a lot more if you decide to join the online dating scene because people look at someone’s picture and they like what they see but what they don’t know is that some people look completely different in person. Physical attraction obviously is a very big deal, otherwise people would be intimate with just about anyone and unfortunately couples enjoy intimacy, so it’s important to know whether or not your date is interested in your or not. When you first meet the person, you will know if they are interested more than likely but it’s not a pure guarantee. As you go throughout the date, there will be signs you will notice and if those signs are negative then you can get a feeling that the date just isn’t going to end well. I tend to think about how the other person might be feeling because I have been in this situation before, me being the person that wasn’t too interested in the girl though.

When you are dating, you just know that things are alright if you know him or her like the back of your hand. A few starting signs that may be bad news for your relationship could be the dreaded “him” or “her” never calling you sign. This doesn’t naturally mean that the relationship is ending because there are numerous other signs that have to associate with this sign, but it can be a starting sign. If you the guy or girl are used to the other person calling you and you find that you are calling more than normally then that can be pretty bad. If you find that your partner is being pretty secretive, for instance, if someone calls your partner and he or she doesn’t let you know who they were talking to, this can mean your partner is losing interest in you. Probably the most popular starting sign that triggers the relationship coming to a halt is when your partner would rather hang out with their friends more than you. If you are in love, you normally find time for each other and make time with your friends also, not more than the other.
