I don't know who wrote the article... But it was poorly proofread and edited.

Not just that, but some guys are too shy to do these things. A girl looking for this with her shy BF could think he's not really in love, when in fact he is madly in love, just too shy or nervous to make these moves. Other guys just aren't this emotional. And honestly, good players use all this body language to their advantage for a quick pump and dump.

I am in a tough position... I am a single dad with custody of my daughter. I love her with all of my heart and she's my world, but because of "first impressions" I am reluctant to mention anything right away about her. Probably more confused. I know a good profile is a honest profile, but I won't mention my daughter until the ice is broken. And just as you say; "The two things that can cause you to go from possible soul mate to the recycle bin in just one click are your weight and having children. It appears that American singles would even tolerate a smoker before taking on an instant family." sadly is a reality with some people. I would like some feedback on this, because my most PROUD quaulity is raising my 13yr old girl myself and done so for 11 years!! I am pretty young at 31, but I would never seek a replacement for her mother. I am confused as hell... Any feedback would be awesome!

maybe its true if u tried being with others before,but when u r spending all ur time alone...its so hard.
i need somegirle next to me on bed wishing her goodnight to have a good morning when i wake up.
its all what am dreaming in....its a big dream for me,its my biggest....
u might wrote what u wrote to run from facing being with a simple fever or flue alone, if u die know one will know about u
its like being nothing
u enjoy all what u mentioned before but for short time only,when its keep running as it is u will be ?"EXHAUSTED" just like exhauseted from being alone

good article ..i married a control freak and they still seem to find me . .. im talking about the dangerous type .... they can take away everthing that was good about you ....... and treat you like a possesion not someone they are supose to love

It's the problem, if you don't believe that real love exists, you won't find it...

You create your world with your thoughts and beliefs. You have what you want.....

I believe that real love exists, of course I had some big deceptions, even lately, but it has made me stronger and gave me some experience I would not have without it.

HELL YEA WE CAN!!! im the next will ferrell, the girl version of course.

Don't believe people who say, "There are no good people out there! All they want is a younger women or man. Who will want me?" Statistics have proven that just is not true. What a person over fifty is looking for is a great companion that takes reasonably good care of themselves. So be proactive, don't sit around, simply get up and open the door on the rest of your life. The best is yet to come.

The last two sentences of the above statement are pivotal. I've met many people, at all age ranges that have just given up. Even been tempted there myself .... but, I'm not one to just sit around and wait for the love of my life to fall from the sky.
Get out and get involved .... volunteer organizations, coffee at your favorite bookstore, civic events, just anything actually .... you just never know who's around the corner ....

DO brush your teeth, take a shower and wear clean clothes.

I used to think that one only needs to tells this to kids, but...

Mature husbands are in great demand today and should be as immature are not established.

This is a wonderful reminder of His love for us. Thank you for sharing it.

Yes, been there done that too, what a waste of 6 years that was... Even worse, she was disabled. She thought the whole world owed her a favour and it revolved around her!
She was born with Spina Bifida and if I was out for too long at a friends place, she would call & call my mobile - granted it was her car I was driving around in, even when I was driving my own car, it was exactly the same crap!
So, yes there are female ones too for sure!!

Men hone humor to attract women. Humor is derived from intelligence, women are derided for intelligence ( I dont agree but it happens ). Most men want a woman that is not smarter than them so they have the intelectual power. Personaly i need someone smarter than me because i dont make the best of choices. I however have fun in my bad choices.

The way I know true love exists is watching my parents while growing up. They married after 3 weeks of knowing each other. They have been married 53 years.

They still are there for each other and love spending time with each other, but they also have different hobbies and intrests. For example, my dad likes to go on hunting trips (sometimes to Bolivia). My mother never kicks up a fuss because she knows that is one of his passions. Sure she misses him, but she's glad he's having fun. Same is true of dad. Mom likes to get her four sisters together and go somewhere they've never been. Dad knows she's enjoying herself. It's amazing because they have total trust and honesty between each other.

The also have discussions about current events and always talk to each other after 53 years. To me, that's perfect.

I'm in a LDR, my partner lives in Indonesia and I have travelled to see her several times, the last for 2 months and I have just come back. We have been in the relationship now for a year, but only got to meet in June this year. She is now about to go to China to study until June next year, so our LDR continues. I will visit her in China in February 2010. We plan top be together either in Indonesia or Australia when her studies are finished.

I appreciated the positive tone of the article, it is clear the author knows what he/she is talking about. Trust is certainly one of the most important aspects and open-ness and honesty follow closely. The advice to maintain and continue your own activities is sound, it is pointless to try to live a life in someone elses world. it is interesting that in the forums, most eople are opposed to LDRs and I'm sure that they have valid reasons for their opinion, but as Laura said, you dont know what you are missing until you try it. I certainly dont regret the experience and am certain my partner and I will be together and happy next year.

Show me a two year old human that can herd 50 sheep a mile then put them into a pen and then go find the stoned out shepherd and get him home safe and sound too.

Bow-wow-wow, yippy-yo-yippy yay!

In response to the above comment....

What if the person you are trying to end the 'bad relationship' happens to be the parent (father/mother) to your kids? And you want your kids to see their parent...That means you'll always have some sort of contact with them....Even with taking legal help to stop them having any contact with you...

What do you do then....?

I really enjoyed reading this article!

And it's true, LDRs can work, with a little patience, understanding and a bit of hard work. Same as any relationship!

Well written! And sooooo true.

Having just read this article, it is so true. I am in a long distant relationship, having found someone on this site, how strange just by answering an email, this has blossomed into a relationship as to say. We have so much in common that is unbeleivable. We try an talk everyday either by msn or by phone, he rings me all the time, I might add the first time I actually spoke to him was daunting, but having said that we now speak of everything,it is really unbeleivable so for anyone who is afraid of the unknown, all I can say is go for it, because if you dont you will never know. Be honest and open, friendship comes first, and if you find that this goes beyond friendship, then take a chance because if its meant to be it will be.

Wishing you all out there to find what I have found

regards Laura

Things not to talk about...

Your ex's...cause this will make it sound like your still hung up on them.

How much money you make or have this will just make your sound shallow.

And a really big no no one first date's don't over do the the compliments cause this will make you sound fake.

marriage talking of this will make you date think your nut's and will have them running away at high speed.

And if you have kids great :D but try not to talk about them to much or your date will be feel that your not interested in him/her

Follow these guides line and you should be OK really

Twilight has given teenage girls the completely wrong view of love. I think true love exists it's just really hard to find-I just quit looking it will come around if it's meant to be

One must learn to TRUST ,,, BOTTOM LINE

The IRS already negotiated a deal with UBS to where only 10,000 of the original 50,000 names will be forked over. So if you're lucky enough to be among the most influential and wealthy 10,000 Americans (and I can easily float a few names), you have nothing to worry about.

Besides, this is not new. The crackdown started almost simultaneous with the implementation of the patriot act. Except that it had little to do with security and everything with revenues.

Listen gals out there the body is just a vessel that houses the mind and soul why worry about negative comments from people who don't use their mids and have no soul. Do ya really want to associate with someone like that??? If u live in a glass house and all that jazz. One of the toughest things to overcome in life is not to judge in any way whatsoever, it's a daily ongoing work in progress that you have to practice everyday - it's hard but can be done. Well that's my 5c worth, enjoy the brrrr frosty day if u are in JHB.

Ciao

Just get off your a** America and get moving !! Doesn't matter if its aerobics or whatever. We have the great distinction of being the fattest assed people in the world!!

What the hell does underwear have anything whatsoever to do with a date????? LOL, WOW!!! Just when I thought I heard it all!

its true that his love is unconditional & as human being's we should try to be like him.

Actually, I re read your post and should have taken the time to peruse it more carefully!! What you say DOES make sense and I apologize that I didn't read it closely! What you are really saying is to rise above your nagative feelings!! Great post!! Thank you for making me see things on here with more intensity!!

How to differentiate the good from the bad degrees is done by looking at the accredidation. There are a whole host of them, ranging from regional to national accredidations of Universities. Regional ones are okay if it's an undergrad degree. For a grad degree to be useful, the accredidation needs to be national.

From the University perspective, churning out online degrees is a huge cash cow. As to the quality, I'd say it depends on the institution and the subject. Some subjects you simply cannot study online. Recently, I've been pretty dismayed by the grads that come out of some established Universities that offer the most bizarre degrees where the fact that they were obtained in residence means exactly nothing.

Ive come to the conclusion that these dating sites do NOT get you dates

I don't agree that a photo gets you more dates. It gets you more views and that is exactly what the above article says in the second paragraph, contrary to the headline. "It gets you more attention." More views does not necessarily translate into more dates, but why let logic get in the way of a good story.

What study are we talking about? Just curious.

margaret,well i am 46just couple of days ago,all my life i have given 1oo% but i find men to take advantage of you,why is that,i dont understand at this stage in my life that i will ever find one that is compatible regards

What do after I make love to a woman "make love to her again"

What does a woman say after she has had 7 multiple organisms?

Answer: "Thanks Des"

after 2 years of a very happy never fighting relationship I moved into my boyfriends 500 square meter house, we split up 2 months after.....we are now back together but each in his own house.....things are just not the same after you move in together...

I speak dog yes and all other animal languages. I have to agree with another commentor that animals house souls.

not only do i spea dog... i AM a dog... so put that in your pipe and smoke it!!! woof woof

We can sit and comment on worst ten Presidents but these men where leaders of the US they may not have been perfect but bye golly we should give them the respect they deserve

His unconditional love said everything.
Nobody else can love you as much as he can!
