Dating - How To Look Like A Prince Or A Princess?

Look at a blue-blooded price or a princess. Apart from looks, you will notice a quality that you may not be able to define, but you can notice. That is the quality of cool confidence. Every royal person need not be a great looker, but the attraction can still be magnetic. If you develop such magnetism, do not you think that you will attract prospective dates in droves? Let us discuss and find out how to do that.

Body - Taking care of face is not enough. Your smallest body part, the toe should be equally clean and well kept. Every body pat should be given equal attention and like a true royal your body should look like great. This need not cost you a lot. We pay more when we visit beauty salons. You can carry out all the treatments except few at your home. The idea is to keep yourself absolutely clean and take great care of everything that nature has given you. You need not be a great looker but every body should notice that you know how to take care of what god has given to you.

Posture - Keep a straight posture. Learn the art of walking, sitting, table manners, hand movements and such from an expert. This investment will fetch you very good returns. Good posture makes a huge difference. Please do it as soon as possible.

Voice and Talking style - Be careful about how you speak, your choice of words and your tone. Do you expect a royal to use dirty words or common slang? Avoid them. Imagine that you area prince/princess and use words and modulate your voice accordingly.

Love - Is Your Partner Your Soul mate?

To be in love is a divine feeling. To love and get love in return is for few lucky souls. If you are one who has found love that is great. Is your partner your soul mate? Your love will one day wither away. The days of bliss that you are enjoying will become a memory and the new realities of future may prove to be not very attractive. But if you are soul mates, you both will be able to enjoy life together for a much longer time.

Before we discuss about what is a mate and what is a soul mate, let me ask you one simple question. Do you have a passion in life- anything that you love doing and enjoy? If yes, does your love partner share that interest? What if he/she does not? Let us talk about that.

After sometime the physical attraction will reduce. The romantic feelings will get battered with time, but your passion for what you enjoy doing will not reduce. If your partner shares the same passion, you will enjoy doing that together, otherwise, you will look for mates with whom you can share your passion and slowly drift away from your partner.

This is not uncommon. Look at most of the wealthy people. Their main passion is to make money and become more powerful. The process of making money thrills them. What of their partners? That is why you will find marriages getting broken rapidly with such groups. Before you decide on a partner, try and get one who shares your passion and who can be your soul mate in true sense. Your relationship will survive much longer.

Love - How To Look Romantic?

Go through your list of celebrities quickly in your mind. Tell me who out of them looks most romantic to you? Who do you think will take your breath away if you are asked to meet them? The looks, the walk, the talk, the body language, and the charisma these make a person romantic. Who do you think will score in all these departments and leave you mesmerized?

You must have seen many movies. You must have seen many movies with special effects. What are these effects for and why are they called special? The special effects are used to create an atmosphere that may look great. You have to do the same to look romantic. Create special effects around you so that the overall effect is smashing.

I pointed out some qualities earlier - the looks, the walk, the talk, the body language, and the charisma. Assess yourself for all of these. Consult experts if required. For charisma, watch some video shots of charismatic people. Observe carefully. Watch the way these people speak, make hand movements, and change eye and facial expressions. This study will be of help to you in changing yourself totally. Practice in front of the mirror. Add special effects to your personality. Let it look artificial to begin with. Slowly they will all look and become genuine.

It is not easy to look romantic, but given proper changes, you can change to one of the most romantic persons walking on the earth. Do you not believe me? Try what I said about special effects and watch the results.

Are You A Caring Lover?

What kind of lover you are? Do you care for your beloved? Or you are more concerned about what you get in love? Those who care in love always win at the end. Because their care shows in their character and they feel good that they care about someone.

Unless your love is not a synonym for physical relation, your love must transcend ordinary relationships. Let me give you an example. A mothers relation with her children is beyond and different from every other relationship. Similarly, if you truly love, you will care, because to love means to care. What about you? Are you a caring lover?

Let me ask you a simple question. Your darling has not bothered to call you for few days. What kind of ideas do you get? Your answer to this question will tell you a lot about your love. Do you suspect that he/she might have fallen in love with somebody else/ or that they are not bothered about you? Or that there may be something wrong, otherwise it is impossible that your lover will not call. Unless your answer is the last one, you need to rethink about your relationship and you may not call it as love.

To love means to give. Love demands that you keep your beloved happy. You forgive them for major blunders. You be with them through everything. Love means to become one with your sweetheart. Unless that happens, it is not love, but a pretense of love. If you love, you must care.

Love - Forgiveness Is True Love

Most of the lovers do not forgive their loved ones. They may forgive their sworn enemy, but they may not forgive their lover. Do you agree with me? Why is this so? It should have been exactly reverse. Why, let us discuss.

What is love? What do we understand by loving someone? How is love different than other relationships and emotions? In love, we give our whole mind and heart to our beloved. We try to keep our beloved most comfortable. We take care not to hurt our darling. In love, we care for each other. We are in the mood of giving in love. Giving always gives more pleasure in love than anything else.

If our darling makes a mistake, shall we berate them? Shall we blame them and give them pain? Shall we hold it against them forever? Shall we call them betrayer? If we do all this then it is not love, but a business relationship. I have given you so much now you give your truth, faithfulness and everything else in return.

In love, we have to forgive. We have to pacify our beloved that mistakes are a way of life and everybody does them. We have to tell them not to worry and we are with them. We have to tell them to stop thinking of what happened and think of good things and try to live life joyously. But a majority of us behaves in reverse. That is our failure. It was never love to begin with. If you believe that you love your darling, please learn forgiving.

Say - I Love You With Ecards And Avoid Embarassment

I love you - how to say this? Many of us in love have great difficulty saying this. Yesterday I read a post by a girl in a forum saying that her boy friend was waiting for her to say I love you and she was waiting for him to say-I love you.

How about using ecards to say I love you avoid the hesitation? This takes courage to say I love you for the first time, because the reaction is never known and one worries about what the reaction may be. Ecards are the best way to say I love you and wait for the response. You will avoid lot of trouble with this method.

Love ecards come under different topics. They are generally - Free Love Ecards, Be Mine Forever Ecards, Birthday Ecards, Crazy In love Ecards, Let Me Love You Ecards, Love Notes Ecards, Miss You Ecards, Marry Me Ecards, and I Love You Ecards.
Depending on your need of expression, you can chose few of these ecards and send them across.

Select lovely colors of ecards. The design should be very beautiful and enchanting. The whole effect should be very romantic. The recipient should go in the romantic mood after looking at the ecard. Love and romance should pour from the ecard and the text should be very exciting and passionate. Love is a game of feelings. The cards should do that with design, images, text and color.

Select the right ecard and send it across. If your choice is right, you will get one card saying I love you in return mail. To express the intensity of your love, send as many ecards as you can at the very first instant and hope for the best. It will happen.

Love - Mature And Immature Love

Love has many facets. Love is still a mystery and every lover has his/her own story about love. What is mature love and what type is immature/ Let us find out. 

In immature love it is said that the person who falls in love has low self-respect. He/she has little self-confidence and finds a lover to see all the qualities that he/she misses in themselves. The person does not love himself/herself, but loves the partner with great fervor. This is called immature love.

Mature love - If a person has very high self-respect and great self-confidence, he/she is supposed to be in mature love. This is called mature love because it is expected that such persons know what they are doing? They know why they love a particular person and what they expect from the love. 

In my opinion both these kids of love may fail equally badly or survive against all the odds, because while talking of love, we have to consider the partner also. I may be a very self respecting person and may have fallen in love after lot of deliberation. That does not matter to my partner who may react in different fashion as times passes. My success or failure does not depend only on me, but also my partner.

Love defies all analysis. Why two persons fall in attraction and become inseparable is a mystery. Very contrasting personalities may love each other for all the life and very similar partner may fall out of love in a short time. It is the very nature of love that makes it a subject of so much investigation .

Do You Love Yourself

Compassion, sympathy, love, care, are all words that we value very much. We wish to be all these to others. Love others. Be compassionate to others. Care for others and be sympathetic to others. Why not to ourselves?

Why don't we show more compassion to ourselves? This sounds strange but this is true. We treat ourselves shabbily many times. We will work even if we are dead tired. We will worry, even if our mind is exhausted. We will plan and try to help others, when we need more help. We wish to give so much to others that we forget about our own mind and body.

Another emotion, which we use to thrash ourselves with, is guilt. We carry a lot of guilt about our past and keep on revisiting those sins and use them to kick ourselves repeatedly. Goals and working non-stop to achieve those goals, helping others, taking care that no one is hurt, and so many other such desires make us work hard and in the process we forget that we are also human beings.

We forget our body, mind and heart. Once in a while, we need to pamper ourselves. Talk to our own body. Ask it to relax. Talk to our mind. Tell it not to worry so much. Leave things to God. Help others, and at the same time treat yourselves gently to be little more calm and peaceful.

Begin loving yourself like your mother used to do when you were a small baby. You need it at times.

Dragon Sketches - Learn to Draw

Firstly, find some current pictures of Dragons - the older and more mythical..the better. The best type of dragons are those of a traditional scaly dragon, with wings. Inspiration can be found by doing a search for "Welsh Dragons" via Yahoo Images.

For the first Dragon Sketch, roughly place the head, body and legs. The flow of the spine and wings are important but basically just figure out the composition first.
Develop the dragon by adding a "lizard look", change the head to a more reptilian style and remember the eye shape is very important.

Refine the drawing by adding muscles in the joints and limbs and linking the anatomy. At this point its useful to go back and reference your Dragon Sources.

Shading and cross-hatching are important in adding depth to a sketch. It's easy to over-work a drawing, but if detail such as claws and scales are added it will improve the Dragon.

At some point in time you may want to colour your Dragon. The usual colour is muddy greens, but I like to experiment with reds or dark brown where the Dragon could have been scorched by it's own flames!

Online Dating Tips for Guys Meeting Girls

Today I'm going to write about a website on Online Dating Tips for Guys Meeting Girls. It is a new site and is different from most that I've looked at.

The content is solely written by visitors. This site does not promote ebooks and lots of sponsors in its advice and free tips. Instead they are written by the visitors themselves when they visit the site.

This is a site giving free tips on dating, romance, love, marriage and relationships. The website is for guys looking for gals and is 'safe'.

The site gives advice applicable to people from all backgrounds: for example christian, catholic, orthodox, romanian, russian, latin brides or interracial dating, american and white or black singles are also covered here.

Write about the pros and cons of starting a romance on the internet as opposed to finding your gal the good old fashioned way.

Give your own reviews of sites you've seen on the web.
Discuss hangout places like US, Texas, Orlando, Lakeland FL, Central Florida, Louisiana, Alberta, Maryland, Oklahoma, Portland, New York, UK, East India, Canada, Alaska, Australia, Italy, Japan or even Edmonton!!

There is much written on the introduction page as to what is going to be developed on this site. I think that the site will eventually have alot to offer without asking for a charge.

Love - Why Two People Love Each Other?

Why do two people love each other? Why do we need someone to love? Why cannot we love ourselves and exist alone? And what is that chemistry that a couple loves each other? Why both should love each other, and no body else? Love is truly a mystery.

The first reason is of course the passion one feels for the other. Call it hormones, mind, heart, emotions or whatever, one falls in love with another person and cannot live without him/her. Physical beauty is not the sole criteria in romantic passionate love. A very beautiful girl can passionately fall in love with an ordinary looking man to the surprise of all. There is something more that is yet to be explored. Ask a lover about why he/she loves her beloved and you will never get a logical answer. Love does not measure qualities, nor sets any standards. Love happens.

Sometimes the love arises out of appreciation of qualities of the other. This love is different than romantic love, but can be equally magnetic. You may get attracted to some persons singing so much that you want to be with him/her at all times. It can be any quality, but it is the appreciation of quality that brings forth this love. In this case the love is passionate love with that quality.

In some cases two persons find so many things alike between each other that they believe they are soul mates. Made for each other, these lovers are bound by the common qualities. What ever may be the reason for falling in love, please fall in love because it is incomparable.

What To Do If Your Dating Partner Becomes Cold?

Have you ever had this experience? You have dated some body few times. Both of you had great time together. You are making plans for the future. Everything seems to go smoothly. And suddenly your dating partner goes cold. The phones are not answered. The mails are not responded. No meetings are discussed, as if past never existed. Why this happened?

This happens with many of us. Out of two partners, one takes a unilateral decision to break away and does not inform the other. There may be many reasons for going cold, including finding some body else. But is it worthwhile chasing the cold date any more?
No. But most of the break away partners don’t say so clearly and the change in relationship is not spelled out. That causes problem for a certain time. This is surely unethical. One should never behave like this. But you can do nothing about it.

You have no option but to wait for some time and then ask straight question. Are we separate now? Are you no longer interested in meeting me? After getting a clear yes, begin again. Don’t ponder and worry over why the earlier person behaved so strangely. Some people are like that. Imagine, if you had got married to somebody so unethical and unreliable?

This kind of behavior certainly shocks. But there is no use. Try to recover as soon as you can. This time, be more careful selecting your new dating partner and hope for the best. Despite many failures, success always comes. That is your right. Please claim it.

Love quiz- Will you Break-Up Soon?

Love and break-up are two sides of the same coin. It is invariably break-up after love. For most of us it seems inevitable now a days. The question is only of time. Some couples break-up after many years, while some break-up after few months. What about you? Are you nearing a break-up? Quiz yourself and find out if your relationship of love is on brink now. Quiz and find out if the symptoms are already appearing?

How to find out if the break-up is due anytime now? Earlier you enjoyed being with your partner. Is it the same now, or you want to have more of personal space and want to be more with your friends? Quiz your buying habits for your partner. Earlier you gave lot of thought and money was not the only consideration to buy anything for your partner. Are you calculating money now a days? Do you let some occasion go without making a present?  Quiz yourself about your talking habits. Earlier you never uttered a word that could hurt your partner. What about now? Are you as careful in selecting your words?

These are small indicators that will tell you the subtle changes that are taking place in your relationship. Watch for these changes and find out if you are sliding down towards an inevitable break-up?

Quiz yourself about your love, your care, your relationships and your desire for each other. Small quizzes will give you hints about large changes. Quiz is a great tool to find out about your life.

Love - Do You Let Your Partner Know Why You Love Them?

Do you ever tell your partner about the good qualities that they have? Do you tell them why you love them? Do you make them feel good by telling them about why they are so lovely? Do you make them happy by telling them what you like about them? If not, please begin. Bring a fresh air in your relationship and let your partner feel good.

Try telling them few things. They can be - You never make me feel bad. You are made for me and I am made for you. You have a beautiful body. I love your hairstyle. When I look into your eyes, I swoon with ecstasy. I wait to hear your voice. Your choice of words is excellent. I wait to be with you. I enjoy being with you. I wait to fall asleep so that I can meet you again in my dreams. I love you because you are a beautiful human being. You are so intelligent I get floored. I want to be with you all the time. I keep on thinking of you while working. I think of you at all the times. After meeting you, my life has changed. I never dreamt that i would be so lucky to meet somebody so good.


In our relationships, we should always be very liberal with our praise. We should be very stingy with blames and criticism. Any word that can hurt should be avoided. Any word that can make your partner feel good should be repeatedly used. Make your relationship heavenly and not a hell. Let your partner feel why you love them so much and how they are so lovely.

Test To Find Out If You Love Yourself?

Most of us are searching for love. We all hear so much about love, watch it in the movies and listen to songs of love. Somehow that kind of love does not happen to us. Whether such passionate romantic love can exist in today's world? That is a big question. Even if you fall in such love, it will phase out after some time leaving a vacuum.

How about loving ourselves? Most of us do a lot of self beating. We regret our decisions, strain our bodies to make achievements, stress ourselves at most of the times about something or else. We give no peace and love to ourselves. Look at a child in the lap of mother. The child is at peace and is totally protected by mother. The kid is totally relaxed. How about mothering yourself?

How about forgetting your worries for a certain period during the day? Just relax and pamper your mind and body? Only relax. Relax and let all the strain go away. Think of nothing. No worries, no tension, no goals, no achievements, no projects, no exams, no promotions. Only yourself. Love yourself for what you are. No criticism. No self beating. No memories of good or bad. Only love for yourself. Let that love Overwhelm you with total peace. Love yourself.

We act brutally with ourselves many times. We don't need others to do that, because we do it wonderfully well ourselves. Are you one of such people? How much do you love yourself?

Dating Advice: You Have To Make a Woman Feel

You can buy a woman flowers for the next ten years and it won’t matter unless you make her FEEL an attraction to you. Women don’t care how things work; they care how things make them feel. In all of the romance novels and soap operas women have been devouring since they were kids, the leading males are always untamable, strong men who sweep women off their feet. 

This is the quality that many “jerks” have. Women don’t like the fact that the guy is actually a jerk – it’s just that jerks have a tendency to have more of this primal, uncontrollable dominance that the weaker, “nice” guys don’t have. The sweet guy thing works only when a woman is in desperate need of attention. It can work with some women, but it will only temporarily keep her happy.

They can’t help it fellas. They are simply responding to Mother Nature. Estrogen is a drug that induces feeling. It makes women want and need to feel everything. Testosterone is a hormone of aggression/achievement and dominance. The sooner we realize and accept these facts, the easier time we’ll have understanding the dating world.


Love - Not Living By Values May Hurt Love

We profess some values and act against them. I will come to that shortly, but add here that our not living by values may be hurting our love very badly. When we look for answers to our lost love, we must find out if we had violated our values. Let me give you some examples. What are the values you love? Honesty, speaking truth, helping others, understanding others, caring for others, being compassionate and many other values come in the values list of a majority. What about living by these values?

How many of us do not lie? How many of us behave carelessly towards others/ how many of us cheat others for small gains? We are ready to sacrifice most of our values to reach our material goals. We justify all our actions on the way, but deep inside there is no peace or satisfaction in our heart. We know that we are different to what we began with.

Is the same happening with our love relationship? In love, we say- I will care for you. In love we promise total faithfulness. In love, we promise that we will sacrifice our comfort to make our beloved comfortable. In love we promise many things including never hurting our darling.

When it comes to living by these values, we break most of them. We bring down our love to a give and take and justify our wrong actions with every possible argument. But the end result is death of love. After that we blame our darling for breaking love. That is our tragedy.

Birthday Ecards- Send One To Your Sweetheart Everyday To Get Excitement

Birthday means to take a birth. I forget what I was yesterday and I get birth again today. If you think of everyday as a birthday, because today is the first day of our remaining life, are you wrong? How about telling this to your sweetheart and sending an Ecard to wish happy birthday everyday?

After all what is love? Love means excitement. Love means to bring passion in life. Love means to do something new everyday to make your daring excited and fall in more love with you. Love is like a river that is flowing with full force and cuts through every obstacle in its path. How to create that love? One has to keep innovating. One has to think of new exciting ideas.

Innovate with birthday Ecards. Send one everyday to him/her and add a beautiful thought of your own. Let it be the first mail they open in the morning. Make the day for your darling everyday. As I said, innovate. It will cost you nothing. At no cost, you bring so much excitement in your love that others will envy you. Begin today. Is it not your darling’s birthday? Send a birthday Ecard now. Bring passion and excitement in your love life at every moment.

Love has to be kept alive at every moment. Love is not a pond that will remain still, but a river. Love needs to flow. Love needs expression and passion. Use romantic birthday Ecards everyday to bring lovely passion in your love life. Find out how?

Dating - Not Asking For Immediate Results Is Better

Today, most of the daters want immediate results after a date. They want to meet their dream date immediately. They want to fall in love immediately. They want to like each other immediately. There is hurry in dating. There is a demand that we must get good date immediately. This is like interviewing candidates for a position in your organization. You wish to get the best candidate as the first candidate and get frustrated if you don't get one after interviewing many. That frustration either makes you drop the idea of searching or you try to fit at least one candidate in the slot. But that will fail with disastrous results.

Are you doing something similar in dating? Do you not accept disappointments easily? Do you want your candy immediately like a child? That can lead to complications. You have to define your requirements and if you find that your date and you don't match, you have to drop him/her. You don't have to create excuses and fit him/her with you. That may lead to long-term pain.

Let us be sure. You are looking for a life partner. You have only one life and you must try and get the best partner you can to have happiness and satisfaction. Give dating enough time. Date few people before you decide about one. Make sure that your head is ruling you and not heart. Don't ask for immediate results. That can be painful over time.

Russian brides and american grooms

Why do the Ex-USSR women search for a husband away? Everything is not that easy as it looks like! A lot of masses think that this is happening due to the existence confusion, husbands-alcoholics that have been left, suppose that they were left for bucks, "smart" men think that they were searching for a cozy and rich life. But nobody wants to see the problem itself! The real issue is that Ex- USSR woman while leaving its state takes the gene pool of the country with her! Every boy that was born abroad would be considered as a part of this country already! The child would work for wealth and prosperity of other country, and his children will bring a more significant benefit to a foreign people! And on the question "why" humans will have a simple and convenient for all the people around answer, although the truthful matter is about ourselves. What kind of girls leave the borders of their native country seeking for a spouse overseas? What are girls looking in unknown places? TheRussian women whom are leaving our Motherland, do it not because they are searching for a better existance overseas, they do it because they seek a good (from the cultural opinion) existance for themselves and theirs future children! And this is the truth that should be recognized.


Double Your Dating Confidence

The first step to becoming the confident guy you’ve always wanted to be is to close your eyes and imagine every aspect of his character. Without a very vivid picture of who you want to become, you’ll never become him.

I want you to take a moment to ponder each one of these questions: How does he walk? How does he move? What does his voice sound like? Does he hold his head high? How does he dress? I want you to go through every aspect of his character. Get an extremely clear vision in your head of this fictional character. Now I want you to say to yourself, “If I can see him, I can be him”. Take your face and put it on this character. I want you to brand this image into your subconscious. In your mind, get used to walking around like this guy. Get used to talking like him.

Just as you wouldn’t expect to be the best piano player in the world without practicing, you shouldn’t expect to be a “cool”, confident guy without practicing. Become comfortable with the new guy you’ve created. I want you to really embrace the concept that you can be anyone you want. No guy was born a “ladies’ man”. Practice this visualization for at least 5 minutes a day and you’ll become more and more comfortable being this “character”.

Feel the excitement through Free singles club!

Hi all. My name is Jack. I am in my final year in University. Am really excited as soon I will be a graduate and will start working . I am single. In fact i always like being single and be in myself. That’s the reason i spent the last 3 years of my university life trying to avoid girls. Believe me life is quite exciting and adventurous if you are single and free.

I always had a secrete desire to travel and visit many places, but never got the opportunity to do that. But now i have decided to travel across North America for a year before I settle down and commit to a full time job. I plan to start from my city and work my way up to New York, then cut straight across and get into California But traveling alone can be quite boring. So may be I will just look for some other singles to join me on my expedition. In fact I have heard a lot about the free singles in California and I am really looking forward to meet a few on my way.


But I am a bit skeptical about the expenses. I’m only bringing 800$ per year from the part time job which I feel is not enough. So I need to do odd jobs here and there to increase the earning. May be it sounds like a stupid plan, but I know it’s gonna work, it has to as i want to travel and see different parts of the world. So wish me luck guys, on my expedition that I would soon begin.

Dating Tips – Found Someone Online? Ready to Date?

Here are some tips that may help once you have found your match and are ready to go on a date:

– Be honest, be yourself. Don't exaggerate or stretch the truth. Once you're suspected of doing so you will lose your credibility.

– Don't surprise your date, with a horror flick or an exotic meal especially on the first date. Keep in mind that your tastes may not be equal to your date's.

– Be on time. Being late is inconsiderate, it leaves a bad impression. If your date is late, be patient and understanding, there may be a legitimate excuse.

– Calm yourself by telling yourself you're excited, not nervous.

– If your date compliments you, don't brush it off or say something that doesn't make it worthy. Instead of putting yourself down, say thank you.

– Look at what's inside. Don't just focus on looks. If you're preoccupied with just physical appearance and you dismiss your date, you might miss out on the great inner qualities they may possess.

– Be open to the ideas your companion might have on how to spend your date.

– Don't be overly aggressive with your date. Don't come on too hard.

– Make the first date brief. It's better to keep them wanting more, than looking for a way to escape.

– Keep the conversation topics light.

– Try to find out if your date has platonic relationships with members of the opposite sex. That's a good sign they are able to relate to you.

– Go out there and have fun with it.

Dating Test - How Romantic You Are?

Most of the people on the dating scene are looking for great partners. Someone who will fulfill the vacuum in their life and heart. Someone very smart, intelligent and loving. In the age of competition it is not easy unless you show innovative approach. Don't take me wrong. I am not asking you to create a drama or anything of that type, but creating  mood that will get you your heart's desire.

How romantic are you? Have you tested yourself on that? Let me ask you a simple question. Does a rainbow look romantic to you? What does a butterfly make you think of? What happens when you walk on the fallen flowers in a garden? Does watching sunset make you think of a poetry? Do you read poetry? Do you enjoy it? Have you ever stared at the eyes of anyone of opposite sex without uttering a word for a minute? If you have done any of these , you are a romantic at heart. You will win the game.

Most of us believe that dating means expensive dinners, visiting theatres, watching movie and so on. You can never create romance at any of these places. For making your partner feel romantic and passionate, you have to go to a location where nature dances with joy. You have to feel part of that nature and enjoy the love that nature gives without asking anything in return. Sing a small poem to your date and you make your day.

Dating Dilemma of a shy guy

Hi guys. My life is messed up. I feel like a loser when it comes to have girlfriend. Can’t tell you the trauma I go through when I see all my friends going out on date with the girls they meet at bars and pubs .you will usually find me sitting in a corner with my drink and feeling miserable on my self.  I am not bad looking, am quite affable and caring in nature too, but because of my shyness I won’t able to approach any girl or talk face- -to-face to them if someone approaches me.
 
  I feel really embarrassed before my friends. Some of my friends even tried to arrange a blind date for me, but it never seemed to work out.  If I am remember, last time I dated was may be more than three years ago. But it’s high time to try for dating.  I need to get rid of my shyness. I don’t want to be labeled as the guy who never gets a date, that’s kind of too upsetting.

So guys, tonight I am going out on a date with a girl my friend dated a couple of moths back. It’s a blind date as I have never met this girl. I’m too nervous; this date has to go well.  I need to find a girl that I can say I’m dating, that I can say I am going steady with. I’m tired of always being the left out one when my friends and I go out.  So every body, please wish me luck!

Love Quiz- Do Looks Matter To You More?

What is love? What is attraction? Why do we love someone? Why do we say that we love someone? Why do not we say that we like someone or are getting attracted to someone? This is all because love is becoming a common word to be used for all kinds of attachments and relationships. Have you quizzed yourself about how much looks matter to you in love?

Will you love an ugly looking person even if she/he has every other quality in plenty? Or you will accept somebody better looking but missing in some qualities? What if you are told that the best looking person of the opposite sex has fallen for you and wants love in return? When you develop relationship, you find that person missing in many essential qualities and values that you respect. What will you do?

Quiz yourself about your relationships. Many of the relationships break because we are attracted by looks but as we get closer we find the other person difficult and break the relationship. It happens with most of us. We all go for looks in the beginning. Very rarely, we give points for other qualities in a logical manner. We look at a attractive person and say-I am in love. Quiz yourself and you will realize why many of your relationships broke? We may deny that. But the main attraction is always great looks. Quiz yourself about this and probably you will come to know more about what are your priorities in relationships and love.


Love Quiz - How To Attract Love?

Who does not wish to attract love? All of us want to attract the best person to ourselves. Am I right? We all wish that the best specimen of the opposite sex became our mate. Let us quiz, if you can do that and find out how you can do that.


Love quiz- what attracts you? Let me ask you this- what attracts you? That answer will give answer to our first question. A person who looks very smart, a person who looks very handsome/beautiful, a person who shows care and love for us, a person who is very intelligent, a person who is compassionate, a person who is well read, a person who is independent minded, a person who can make others laugh, a person who is not selfish, a person who is not greedy, a person who looks honest - these are some qualities that will attract you. Am I on the right track?


Quiz if you can develop these qualities- all of us want many things in life. The question arises- are we ready to work towards that? Most of us want to continue in our old way and want different results. Let me repeat - almost of us want to continue in the old way but want different results than before. That will never happen. For getting different results than before we have to act differently. Develop the attributes you are looking for in others and you will attract the best from the opposite sex.

Free Online Dating- the latest craze in Dating

Free online dating is fast catching a fancy among all my friends. They are regular to free online dating and have met their current boyfriends and girlfriends through the dating sites.

Personally, I feel it’s a pretty cool system. You get to meet people from different parts of world. You can decide which profile matches with your preference and also you can go at your own tempo. It’s not like the bars where most of the time it’s a creeper or a drunk walking up to you asking if they can buy you a drink. If your are turned down by someone here, there’s no need to get embarrassed about as no one is watching. That’s another advantage in free online dating.

One dating site that is quite popular among all my friends is Kisscafe.com. The best thing about Kisscafe is first of all it’s free. Then its webpage has been designed to captivate the viewers. It provides you the liberty to customize your own profile, has the blog and chat facilities, and has a huge database of interesting profiles to choose from.

It’s been a while since I am single. Having watched my friends getting succeeded in free online dating; now I even consider trying it . After all there is nothing to lose and who knows maybe I’ll find my perfect match there. So wish me luck!


Do You Attract The Opposite Sex?

All of us want to get a great mate. We want to settle for nothing less than the best of the specie. Are we having the personality to attract the opposite sex? Do we have that magnetism to pull them near us? That is a big question and once we get how to do that, the world is ours.

Let us begin with raw appeal. There is something called animal appeal. Some of us have that and some don't. This appeal has to do with our voice tone, our walk, our talking style, our smell of the body, our body and our personality. Take care of these and you are half way through. Suppose you are a woman. You are asked to join a group of hundreds of women all standing in a queue. Then some men are allowed to view all of you. Will you beat all the women and attract attention of every man towards yourself? If you can manage that, you are a winner. Same with men.

What about understanding the personality of the opposite sex? Take a teacher. She is trained to handle many children and knows about how to teach them. Do you know some thing about how to handle the opposite sex? Have you studied about them? If not, please pick up some good guides and do that as soon as possible.

Making yourself attractive is the first requirement. Once you can do that, you will manage to get any one as your date. Good Luck.


Love Messages

Love, the very word brings forth feelings of warmth. Love, a relationship, which makes us whole. A companion with whom we share all our emotions, our life, our thoughts, our body, our everything. That is love and lucky are those who fall in love.

During the initial phase of love, there is a tremendous passion and a desire to keep on sharing everything. Keep on telling about how one loves their beloved in so many different ways. In this phase, lovers speak of flowers, stars, moon, and so many other objects that one can find to define love.

All of us have our own style of sending love messages. Some write their own poems. Some send small notes. Some send very long letters and some search for poems that can reflect their emotions. Searching for gifts, and sending messages, meeting, enjoying life together, and so many other such activities mark the initial phase of love. Love is indeed mysterious because you will find poems being written by those about whom you had never suspected this. Your most ordinary looking practical gardener will develop dreamy eyes and start sending love notes after falling in love! PG Wodehouse wrote about this in most of his stories with great fun and understanding.

The best part of love messages arrives after many years. Show a lover what he/she did many years ago and they will themselves not believe that they wrote all that gibberish. That is love.


Love Test - What If You Love Your Friend?

You are friends and you enjoy your friendship. You behave with each other as you do with your other friends. One day you find that you have begun having different feelings for your friend. You like him/her more than a friend and are developing romantic love. What should you do?

You want to tell your friend about your feelings. But you are not very sure about them yourself. Have you really crossed the relationship of friendship and developed romantic love? You are thinking about that and the more you think the more you get confused. Emotions are like that. They can play havoc with us.

After lot of deliberation, you have decided that the feelings of love are true and figments of your imagination. Should you tell your friend? What if he/she does not reciprocate? What will happen to the friendship?

This is a difficult situation. You don't wish to sacrifice your friendship, but if your friend does not reciprocate that will happen. And there is no way of finding his/her feelings indirectly. You have to do it yourself. What should be done? Please ask. Please tell about your feelings and ask if your feelings are reciprocated. If yes, you are lucky. If not, let the friendship suffer. You cannot continue loving someone without finding out your friend’s feelings. That will be much more painful.

Love - Should It Necessarily Get Destroyed?

Recently I saw a post by a man on a forum saying that he was married for twenty-seven years, but still could not stop thinking of his wife all the time. He wanted to be with her and used to think of her even during work. Some people suggested that he should consult a therapist. Can you see the tragic question and the answers?

Here is a man who loves his wife after twenty-seven years. He has heard so much about marital fights and break-ups that he thinks something is seriously wrong with him. It is like saying that I am healthy and do not fall sick at all. Please advise. and some people may say, please go and meet a Doctor immediately to find out why you are not falling sick and please fall sick as early as you can.

We are living in negativities. We are losing our balance of mind and our thinking ability. Why should we make ourselves as a number and wonder if we are not falling the statistical groups and results that predict doom for a marriage after twenty-seven years. The man should be rather delighted and thank God. His wife should feel very lucky and both should begin helping others keep their love alive for a long period. Such a blessing is rare in todays world. But it is the negative discussion about break-ups and divorces that make a sane person ask such questions.


Growing Online Dating Relationships

Just like regular real-world relationships, online relationships need tending, to grow over time. Here are some quick growing tips.

1.    Take time and make time. Does your online date get in touch with you regularly? Do you do the same? Neglecting virtual meetings can be considered abuse or neglect, so treat each other’s time with respect. If it’s lacking, might mean time to move on.

2.    Communication needs to “feel” right for both of you. If one of you is too pushy about meeting, for instance, that can give off bad vibes. So don’t rush. Take time to learn more about each other and develop trust.

3.    Respect each others privacy. Don’t share personal email addresses or digital photos online, for example, if your online date sent you the information in confidence. 

4.    Share special online and offline fun times. Online – send greeting cards, links to favorite places to upload digital photos of your favorite pet, download music and video clips, post on favorite forums of interest. Offline- if you’re exchanging addresses or post office boxes, send print greeting cards and postcards, small items from your area (like a key chain with your state bird).

Tend your online relationship. Water it with care and over time it can sprout and grow.

Five Tips For Your First Date

Let’s face it…first dates are tough and the majority will end before they even really start. Here is a list the five most important things both men and women should keep in mind. A first date is simply two people getting together to find out more about each other…its an interview where you determine if the other person will be a good fit for you. Many of these things may seem like common sense but you will be surprised with the things some people are capable of.

Top Five Things for Men

1. Listen to your date. Listening to your date is not the same thing as waiting for her to pause so that you can begin speaking).
2. Be chivalrous…yes that means you’ll have to open the car door for them.
3. Don’t get drunk. If you’re not sure you can, just stay away from alcohol all together.
4. Always be on time.
5. Play it safe and stay away from the religious and/or political topics…this can lead to disaster.


Top Five Things for Women

1. Say thank you if he does something nice and/or unusual.
2. If you’re not interested and rather be friends, just say it. The guy may not want to hear it but trust me, it’s better (and easier) now than later on.
3. Don’t get drunk (see #3 for men).
4. Laugh at his jokes even if they are awfull.
5. Make lots of eye contact and smile.


Quiz For Men - Do You Know what women Prefer - Looks Or Money?

Men and women have different roles in the society. Both the sexes also have different choices. Talking about gender equality cannot ignore the biological differences. Gender equality does not mean that women and men like or dislike same things or have similar aspiration or behavior.

What do women prefer- Looks or money? If you ask some men around you about what they desire in women, good looks may come out as a common answer. What about women? Does a good-looking man attract women or they are more attracted by a man having more money and a man with ambitions? Please ask some women and you will be surprised to know that even very good looking women are not necessarily looking for a partner with great looks, if he has no money. Women desire men with money, power and ambitions more than looks.

If you are a man with ok looks, bur with good amount of money and are thinking of doing much more in your profession, you may be chosen by a real good looking woman.
This does not mean a man who does not keep himself clean or has little sense of clothes or etiquettes. That is a must, but you need not look like a person who can go to any competition and win it on looks. Of you have money and ambitions; you can have your pick of woman.

Although, I get along pretty much well with others and have a bunch of close friends, I feel freezed when I come across a girl. I can’t tell you the trauma of watching my friends going out on date with the girls they meet at bars and pubs. i will be usually found sitting in a corner of bar with my drink and feeling miserable on my self.

 I feel really embarrassed before my friends due to my shyness. Some of my friends even tried to arrange a blind date for me, but it never seemed to work out. But it’s the limit, I really need to get rid of my shyness as early as possible. I don’t want to be labeled as the loser who never gets a date, that’s kind of too distressing.

So you got their phone number...now what?

You meet a nice guy or girl and you hit it off. You got their phone number but how long should you wait before giving them a call? 

If you’ve seen the movie Swingers, you know what I’m talking about. Let’s look at some of the possible scenarios you may find yourself in: 

Call Right Away (within the first half-hour) 

How you see it: Just making sure they got home safely; or you just really enjoyed their company and you wanted to talk some more 
How they see it: I just talked to this person 30 minutes ago…what else could they want to talk about? 


Call 3-6 Days Later

How you see it: Didn’t want to seem too desperate and/or wanted them to spend a few days thinking about why you weren’t calling. 
How they see it: They didn’t call because they were trying to look cool; what do they look like again? 


Call 7+ Days Later 

How you see it: Been busy and haven’t gotten around to it…maybe the other person will want me more if I show them how little I care. 
How they see it: Who are you? 


The truth is, if you meet someone for the first time, how likely are they to remember you after a week? Now add drinks into the equation and you’re lucky if they remember you the next day. Call the next day if you want to be safe, wait two days if you enjoy living on the edge.

Online Dating - How to make a match.

A pretty new photo of yourself should be used in your profile. You will obtain more serious impression among those who search for a partner. Describe yourself in the best manner. What kind of person would you characterize yourself? What do you like to do? That is essential.

Don't show up with personal information like email-address and phone-number. Likely as not you want to know more about your date through correspondence using the dating-site. If you receive an unpleasant reply, you should take no notice of the sender. At worst write an email to the owner of the website.

Don't lie or exaggerate when you try to describe yourself. Don't write anything about your defeats and bad experiences. Emphasize your good qualities. Your first date, when you decide to meet each other, should occur carefully and gradually.

Realize that some men make a copy of their message for distribution among several women. The more specific you are, describing what you want, the fewer replies. But it is an increasing chance that you will meet someone that suit you.

Be patient. It may take a lot of time to find your dream-partner - also at the cyberspace. But one day it may come true.

Constructing Your Child's Healthy Sense of Self Esteem

Your child's self esteem is their mental foundation. A self-assured child is confident, secure, happy, well-adjusted and successful. They can solve problems that come their way, and it thrives under a loving parent's nurturing care. What are some good ways to built self esteem in your child? Most importantly, accept your child for who they are, and help them do the same. Teach your child that nobody is perfect, and that everyone makes mistakes. Show them how to learn and grow from their mistakes, and let them know that you also make mistakes. Children with high self esteem are able to take lessons from mistakes and apply them down the road. A child with low self esteem become frustrated and resort to self-depreciating behavior, such as calling themselves 'stupid' and vowing to 'never try that again.' Help your child discover their abilities and talents, and encourage outlets for them to build on and improve them. Praise a child not only for improvements in abilities and skills, but also for the traits they naturally possess. Encourage your child to make positive choices. Open an honest dialog with your child and discuss the possibilities with them. Children who learn skills for making positive choices when they are younger are well-prepared for the tougher choices they have to make when they are older. Ensure that you spend lots of quality time with your child, at least once a week. Whether you are shooting baskets or going out to grab a hamburger, take time to talk and keep in touch. If you find it difficult to squeeze in quality time during a hectic week, take the time to talk about things during the drive to school or while they are helping you put the groceries away.

Actively Listening to your Child

Communicating with our children can be a difficult task at times. We feel like they're not listening to us; they feel like we're not listening to them. Good listening and communications skills are essential to successful parenting. Your child's feelings, views and opinions have worth, and you should make sure you take the time to sit down and listen openly and discuss them honestly. It seems to be a natural tendency to react rather than to respond. We pass judgment based on our own feelings and experiences. However, responding means being receptive to our child's feelings and emotions and allowing them to express themselves openly and honestly without fear of repercussion from us. By reacting, we send our child the message that their feelings and opinions are invalid. But by responding and asking questions about why the child feels that way, it opens a dialog that allows them to discuss their feelings further, and allows you a better understanding of where they're coming from. Responding also gives you an opportunity to work out a solution or a plan of action with your child that perhaps they would not have come up with on their own. Your child will also appreciate the fact that maybe you do indeed understand how they feel. It's crucial in these situations to give your child your full and undivided attention. Put down your newspaper, stop doing dishes, or turn off the television so you can hear the full situation and make eye contact with your child. Keep calm, be inquisitive, and afterwards offer potential solutions to the problem. Don't discourage your child from feeling upset, angry, or frustrated. Our initial instinct may be to say or do something to steer our child away from it, but this can be a detrimental tactic. Again, listen to your child, ask questions to find out why they are feeling that way, and then offer potential solutions to alleviate the bad feeling. Just as we do, our children have feelings and experience difficult situations. By actively listening and participating with our child as they talk about it, it demonstrates to them that we do care, we want to help and we have similar experiences of our own that they can draw from. Remember, respond - don't react.

Surge in Children Accidentally Eating Marijuana-Laced Foods

new study shows the relaxation of marijuana laws in Colorado has caused a significant spike in the number of young children treated for accidentally eating marijuana-laced cookies, candies, brownies and beverages.
"We have seen an increase in unintentional ingestions of marijuana by children since the modification of drugs laws in Colorado," said George Wang, MD, lead author of the study and clinical instructor in pediatrics at Children's Hospital Colorado and the University of Colorado School of Medicine. "We need to educate marijuana users, the community and medical professionals about the potential dangers."
The study, published Monday in the JAMA Pediatrics, compared the number of young children treated at the Children's Hospital Colorado emergency department for ingesting marijuana before and after the modification of Colorado's drug laws beginning in 2009.
A total of 1,378 patients under age 12 were evaluated for unintentional ingestions -- 790 before Sept. 30, 2009 and 588 after Oct. 1, 2009. The number of children treated for exposure to marijuana before Sept. 30 was zero. The number from Oct. 1 on was 14 with eight of those coming directly from consuming marijuana food products.
Wang, a fellow at the Rocky Mountain Poison & Drug Center, said today's marijuana can be much stronger, and these products can contain higher concentrations of THC, the active ingredient in the drug. Some marijuana infused candy bars, for example, contain 300 milligrams of THC. Children who ingested the drug exhibited symptoms that included respiratory problems, extreme sleepiness, difficulty in walking and lethargy. Many underwent a battery of expensive tests to diagnose their problem because the history of exposure was not given, or medical professionals were not familiar with marijuana causing these symptoms.
