Most Viewed Dating & Relationships Blogs (2,550)

Although I adore women, they are an enigma, no guide books or code breaking machines are yet capable of deciphering or understanding what these beautiful creatures really want.

An extensive search of the Internet and time spent correlating the results showed these are what women want in a man:-

Honesty, Understanding, caring, strength, compassion, security and Loyalty.

I think these would mean different things to different women and they still dont help without more information.

So let us men ask questions, and or let the women tell us what they really want.

As a vast majority of people on the blogs are around 50 or older, so have women's priorities changed?

I dont want sexist or stupid questions, might delete any of them!

My first questions:

What makes you feel special?

What are you really looking for? (not a glossy impossible match like some profiles)

I was at a family gathering this weekend and looking at books in the lounge when I heard my cousin telling her sister-in-law about one of the guests. Only when she said 'her sister Anne, on the other hand' did I realize they were talking about me.

It wasn't anything horrible (or lovely!) as it happens, it just wasn't the way I would have described me.

Has that ever happened to you?

There are always blogs about what should we be doing, saying, or NOT doing / saying, in our relentless hunt for lurve, but I can't remember if anyone has mentioned voices.

New start in the office has long platinum blonde hair, good figure, looks like serious competition for the very few guys around the building, huh.

Then she opens her mouth. Voice like a buzzsaw crossed with a raven. and she talks all the time. Across everyone else, too, never listens.

If this bird ever loses her voice she will have more male attention than she can handle but in the meantime, not surprising she's single. Or does voice not matter to most people?

A bad voice, or a terrible accent, matters to me, but no-one has mentioned it on a blog, that I've noticed anyway.

I was interested enough to ask. I do have an accent, and I know it puts some people off straight away, mainly because it is immediately obvious I'm not Scottish, but others like it (for the same reason )

The scene, a quiet spot next to a babbling brook, dappled sun and shadows on the blanket, The sound of waves crashing in the distance, a picnic basket, glasses of wine, just the two of you, enjoying the food, not talking but speaking through your eyes.

Your hands touch, you both smile, you lean towards each other and kiss, just a little one that turns into a mind blowing snog.

I see the woman I'm with, a summer dress, see through in the sunlight, her hair shining, her lips red, her smile infectious, the warmth of her kiss, the soft skin on her hands, her nails manicured to perfection, she wears the flower I picked in her hair, she is beautiful, she is happy.......

You can be with anyone you want, maybe a crush here on CS, your picnic basket can have anything your heart and stomach desires.

Tell me how your picnic would be

There are quite a few commercial 'dating sites' around, which, after free registration, allow:
- seeing the full profile of members
- making your favorite list
- receiving messages...
Revenues are generated from subscribers sending messages. You may purchase a bundle of 'credits' for sending messages. This practice opens the gates for a multitude of fake profiles, sending out massive numbers of messages to all potential 'dating partners'. Their only intention is to generate mail traffic: hence to lure you into wasting your mailing credits. There never is any intention to date a person.
As a lot of members (mostly men) are being lured in such a scam/site, a lot also leave disappointed.
A problem? Not at all: those commercial dating scams just invent another name and a new vehicle for misfortune is generated. These new 'dating sites' merely are fresh entry names with a slightly different look. Yet the profiles pointed to are identical: this actually is a multiplication by cloning. You may find banners for such sites on CS; after all a free site needs revenues from ads. Just stay on board here and steer clear of those scams.

I just tried to post to Biff's blog about nice guys and it vanished

So what if men are happy with good company and want to extend that long term, is it bad? Do women want to be messed around?

Amid the corridors of the internet
There's a website called Connecting Singles
It's portrayed as a dating site, and yet
Some folks are there merely to intermingle

It's a mix of different nationalities
Which gives it an international flavour
It features attitudes of all varieties
Ideal for a study of human behaviour

There's a mixture of blogs, forums and poetry
In which all are free to participate
Some do so very unassumingly
While others tend to argue and debate

Some interaction is innocent banter
With others, it can get to a heated stage
Where sparks fly that sometimes ignite a fire
Some get burned while others get in a rage

The site moderators seek to maintain order
And to prevent things from getting out of hand
So please be mindful of your behaviour
Else in Connecting Singles jail you may land

I was going to help all the ladies with a proposal in form but am really annoyed to find that neither my Debretts nor my Enquire Within offers any template at all.

In fact the Enquire Within jumps straight from Balls & Evening Dress - where the last instruction is "An introduction to a lady at a ball does not entitle the gentleman to bow to her on a future occasion, unless she first recognises him" to Marriage Arrangements. I appreciate the book dates back to a more modest time (1899) but good grief.

So here we go, guv.

It would, er, make me the happiest woman on Earth, er, if you would, you know, *loosens collar* eh what?

This is harder than I thought it would be. It's leap year, okay? Want me to spell it out? Sheesh. Fill in the gaps.



Phew. But I couldn't have you getting through leap year without at least one.















There you go, girls. Or you could make up your own, of course.

Do you Block your BF/GF being commited with him/her? just curious

IT IS NOT LOVE, IT IS SOMETHING ELSE

If you love someone because you think that he or she is really gorgeous...
Then it's not love..
It is - Infatuation...

If you love someone because you think that you should not leave him because others think that you should not...
Then it is not love..
It is - Compromise...

If you love someone because you think that you cannot live without his touch....
Then it is not love..
It is - Lust...

If you love someone because you have been kissed by him...
Then it is not love..
It ?s - Inferiority Complex...

If you love someone because you cannot leave him thinking that it would hurt his feelings..
Then it is not love..
It is - Charity...

If you love someone, because you share everything with him...
Then it is not love..
It is - Friendship...

If you demand someone to accept you as you are,
Then it is not love…
It is selfishness…

If you kindly advise someone that you like travelling, but you do not say, who will pay the expenses…
Then it is not for love…
It is for money and dolce vita

But if you feel the pain of the other person more than him even when he is stable
And you cry for him…
This is - real LOVE...
