How
To Get More Responses At Online Dating Sites
by: Sharon Alger
So, you’ve decided to join a dating website.
You’re hoping someone out there will find something interesting about you and try to
get to know you better.
Many members worry about appearing ‘desperate’ or
over keen. This can mean putting in less effort into a profile in a bid to ‘play it
cool’. Of course, nobody wishes to be seen as desperate. However, keep this in mind:
how will others know what you want, if you don’t ask for it? How will they ever
appreciate your finer qualities if you remain tightlipped?
Therefore, to be successful in the online dating world,
your profile is highly important. Members search through a large number of profiles on
these sites. If there is little information about a prospective date, then they are more
than likely to skim over an empty profile as quickly as possible. Look at this as a great
chance to sell yourself!
The first aspect of your profile to consider should be your
photo. No matter how much emphasis people put on the importance of personality, the old
expression, ‘it’s nice to put a face to a name’ couldn’t be more apt.
Physical appearance plays a big part in the real world,
when first becoming attracted to someone. Also, it helps to ensure that people will
remember you. The golden rule when posting photos on dating sites is obvious – BE
HONEST. We’ve all heard stories of people who’ve posted a photo that is ten or
twenty years old. Or worse still, a photo of someone else entirely! Now, if you never
intend to meet someone, then this is not a problem. But let’s be realistic – you
wouldn’t be on a dating site if you weren’t hoping to meet someone!
A misleading photo causes all sorts of unnecessary problems
on a first date. You will have your date questioning your honesty. You want to turn up for
dates relaxed, with your best attitude put forward. Still not convinced? Just think how
you would feel, if you were deceived by a photo, and that should be incentive enough for
you to be accurate.
So what if you’ve gained a few pounds? Aged a bit?
Give yourself some credit, you’re still a beautiful person, and sure to be
someone’s ideal ‘type’. So, try to get a recent photo of yourself, looking
the best you can. Avoid shots that are so dark or distant that no one can see your face.
People will only see either an insecure person, or someone who has something to hide and
move on. Just think how frustrated and disinterested you’d be if you came across such
a picture.
Let’s talk about location. How much information is
right? Obviously, for safety reasons you aren’t going to put your address into your
profile. Apart from this, put as much detail as you feel comfortable with. At least, put
the state you live in. at most, your suburb. Anything in between (such as the city your
suburb is located in) is also fine. We all know this, but it bears repeating, do not put
your phone number on any public site.
It will save everyone a great deal of time if you are open
and honest about your sexual preference.
Talk about your interests and hobbies. Don’t just
leave it blank! And don’t worry if they don’t seem interesting enough. This is
who you are. If you are honest and forthcoming with this information, you will be more
likely to attract the type of person you are after. For example, if you were the district
running champion in high school, but never intend to run again, don’t put it in as a
hobby! To put in hobbies you have no interest in, in the hope of appearing more
impressive, will only attract people you have nothing in common with in the here and now.
So, if you like quiet nights in, say so! Try to paint a
rich and detailed picture of what the real you likes to do.
You also really need to share a part of your personality
with your audience. What are your beliefs? What are you looking for in a person? Also, if
you feel you have special qualities such as a sense of humor or kind nature, try to write
your profile in a way that sincerely reflects that.
You are now ready to make your first attempt at creating a
winning profile! Remember, you just need to keep it honest and current. You need to show
you’ve made some level of effort to let members know who the real you is. And when in
doubt, remind yourself: give the sort of information you yourself would be wanting to know
about when looking at other members. Good luck!

How
to Talk to a Woman
by: Caterina Christakos
Taking a girl out on a date already says a lot. But this
whole business is not just about seducing someone. You must gain the confidence and trust
of the person sitting at the other end of the table. More than that, you must make her
feel good in your presence and even want more. How to do this? Simple! When you're not
flirting with her just let her take control for a while.
Always keep in mind that women's favorite subject is
themselves. This little "bug" in their software gives men a big advantage in a
conversation and that is curiosity. Yet, only few use it because of the misconceptions
surrounding curiosity in general. Curiosity may have killed the cat, but when a
conversation between a man and a woman is concerned, I don't think it ever hurt anyone.
What I'm trying to say is that if she says something that makes you curious... just ask
her! This will tell her that you are interested in her person. Nevertheless, watch out for
those not so discreet questions that could turn you into a cat and get you killed.
Another thing most men forget is that women, even the
prettiest, disregard themselves. If you discovered something about her that you really
like make sure she can feel your admiration. This rule applies to anything from the color
of her eyes to the way she back-parked her car for example. Still, try to use original
ways to make compliments and remember that you'll receive the most "points" for
cherishing her intelligence.
Always listen to her when she talks! Sounds too obvious?
Maybe, but the key thing is that it counts less if you've been really listening to her as
long as she thinks you weren't. Therefore you can use several tricks like saying
confirmation phrases ("I see", "yes" etc.) showing that you're
following her. Just don’t do it so much that she mistakes you for her shrink.
Re-telling what she just said is another useful skill as long as you don't abuse it. You
simply rephrase what she said and she'll know you got the point. Nevertheless it can be
very annoying if you overuse it.
And, as I mentioned earlier, when she makes you curious
about something just ask her! This proves you were listening in the first place. The same
happens when you make a compliment based on something she just said.
But curiosity can also be used whenever you run out of
topics in a conversation. Every woman is curious by nature so all you have to do is to
stir her curiosity and forget all about you running out of interesting subjects or her
getting bored.

Instant Dating Strategies Anyone Can Use
by: Caterina Christakos
Most of us walk around caught up in our own thoughts.
We don't look at people as we walk down the street and we have the radio
blasting in the car so we don't even notice those single, sexy individuals
in the cars next to us.
Tip #1 Get out of your head and into your environment.
Instead of saying that there aren't any available guys
out there, why not take your head out of your book at Barnes and Noble and
notice if anyone is noticing you?
There are probably plenty of attractive men out there
dying to ask you out. Your body language may be part of the reason why they
don't.
Tip #2 Have open body language. This means no crossed
arms. No hiding behind books. No hunching your shoulders.
Tip #3 Make eye contact. Instead of looking down when
a cute guy looks at you, meet his gaze. The right eye contact can be sexier
than the hottest verbal conversations.
Tip #4 Smile more. Studies have proven that a smiling
face is thought to be friendlier and more attractive than someone who goes
around with a tight jaw. Relax your jaw and allow your lips to be at least
partly parted at all times. Notice the difference in how many more people
smile, look your way and approach you.

What Makes
a Man Sexy
by: Rachelle Arlin Credo
What makes a man appealing? Is it his dashing good looks? Is it his rock-hard pecs and
abs of steel? Or is it his smile and his personality that takes the top plum? In a society
where everyone seems aesthetically astute, it's difficult to validate this question for
sure.
Sexiness is a very subjective matter and is very relative at that. It holds
inconsonant views from each individual just as everyone squabbles over tastes in clothes
and food. Hence, a universal answer to this blown-up question is an illusion.
Nonetheless, being in a magnificent relationship with
someone so downright sexy replete with all the sensual and sensible traits any woman would
kill for, I think I can provide authentic down-to-earth revelations regarding this
subject.
So what makes a man sexy? Take your whiffs off the following:
1. Masculinity
There is more to a man than his firm butt and washboard abs. True, what a woman first
notices is his anatomical assets but what lingers in her mind is not all that. It's his
inherent masculinity. It's in the way he languidly struts across the room with a show of
adequacy and grace and the way he flashes the glint in his eyes that ultimately creates
the spark.
It's also in the manner that he moves and talks that keeps women's eyes riveted
at him. Being masculine does not merely suggest flaunting a large build or a protective
quality but having this natural instinctive masculine self to trigger women's instinctive
feelings of attraction.
2. Smile
A natural sweet smile is one of the greatest attraction of a man. It exudes an aura of
congeniality and establishes charisma presence. It also breaks a woman's resistance and
communicates hidden messages without any verbal language. This is why a man who is
generous with his smile is guaranteed to maintain a women-magnet profile!
3. Eye contact
A man who knows how to have eye contact is a man who knows how to communicate. Women just
like men are absolute attention seekers. They want men to listen and to take heed of the
things they say. Thereupon, they demand affirmation.
Eye contact is a way of ratifying. It
makes a woman feel sufficiently attended to and cared for. Eye contact makes women feel so
extremely special
that they tend to sometimes melt right on the spot.
4. Confidence
Confidence makes a man. There's just something about the appeal of wealth and power that
women can't resist. Antithetical to how most people view it, giving off that commanding
vibe isn't always dependent on one's bank account. Men can actually take on that aura of
authority just by moving through life with an air of self-assurance and a boost of
self-esteem.
5. Aromatic sense
If a man is a making of a heartthrob onscreen and is a hunk on a ramp but stinks, he
definitely goes down the cutthroat world. No woman likes a man who smells a bit too ripe
like he just spent 24 hours locked in the bathroom. If a man looks good and smells even
better, women are bound to swarm around him.
6. Sense of Style
Some men just don't seem the type to go with the fashion trend. But it does not mean that
they are passé. Some just have their own personal preferences and resist the lure of
punked-up garments. Actually, it's not the clothes that make a man sexy. It's how he
carries his apparel with confidence and ease that does. Clothes don't entice women, it's
the man that makes those clothes look good in him that wiles them.
7. Communication skills
Intellect is a factor in today's attraction equation. We are in such a competitive world
that anyone without it is immediately slighted. But intellect without communication skills
is not an attractive product. Conversational skills are necessary for any man to win the
tilt. He must know when and how to start up a conversation and carry it on 'til it tapers
off.
He should not patronize women and is not so full of himself. It is believed that if a
man is able to stimulate a woman's brain juices in a conversation, it is likely that he
can stimulate her other juices as well.
8. Sensitivity
Sensitivity is sexy but too much sensitivity is feminity. So where do we draw the line?
When we talk about sensitivity on the right scale, it means having a sense of empathy,
confidentiality and trust rolled into one. When a woman confides something, a man's
initial reaction is to help her find a solution or fix it himself. This is not
sensitivity. When a woman expresses her feelings, she just needs an ear to
absorb the
steam out of her being. A sexy man sees this through and gets women every
time.
9.Sense of Humor
Laughter releases chemicals that create a sense of well-being, which is a wonderful
turn-on. A man equipped with a good sense of humor automatically wins his points on the
sexy scale with women. With the mighty use of his expression and wits combined, he becomes
an addiction that women just can't get enough of. Women think that if he can evoke them
with laughter in public, chances are he can also make them giggle in bed.
10. Oddity
Extrinsic and intrinsic personal abilities and traits that are considered unique and
superior by a woman's biology and also by the society to which she identifies with are, to
varying extents, very charming to the female species. If a man has the gift of music or
have potential fancy footwork or simply has art at his fingertips, he can charm his way
anywhere.
A mysterious facade that keeps her intrigued and guessing is also deemed
bewitching. But a man's resistance to a woman's seduction is considered the prime. It's
effects are naturally ingrained into the "sex" part of a woman's brain that it
drives her motors purring all the time.
What makes a man sexy is but everything about him and even more. Whether it be on
the surface or skin deep, it's just a matter of projection. Every man is sexy in their own
ways. They just have to feel that in themselves so the seething sexiness comes out of them
naturally.

The
Truth About Women Revealed
by: Caterina Christakos
Have you ever imagined what it would be like to read a
woman's to mind - especially a woman you want to get into your bed? How about just being
able to fake it enough that she thinks you can read her mind?
Here are some powerful clues that can tell you if she is
interested in you and the type of things she might be interested in in bed.
1) Is she biting her lower lip or licking it? She is
definitely into you. This is a little signal that she isn't even aware she is doing. It ranks right up there with playing with her hair and
crossing and uncrossing her legs.
2) Does she lean into you when you are talking? You have
grabbed her attention.
3) Does she touch you a lot? If she is caressing your arm or
finding excuses to touch you then you have a huge chance of scoring tonight.
4) Does she love it when you order food for her and make
decisions? This might be a sign that she wants you to take charge in the bedroom. If she
enjoys having her hands help down by you during sex, she might be into a little light
bondage. Start with scarves to test her reaction.
5) Watch her while she eats her dinner. Does she really get
into the meal, especially the dessert? Try adding some whipped cream or chocolate syrup to
your night play.
6) Want a new way to turn her on? Try renting some erotic
videos with a story line. Try the Red Shoe Diaries, Henry and June or Eyes Wide Shut. If
she likes the scene in Eyes Wide Shut where they are wearing masks she may be open to
experimentation and role play.
7) Want to get her in the mood? Try having a picnic on your
living room floor. Include wine or champagne, strawberries, whipped cream and finger foods
that you can feed each other. She will find it romantic and you have the privacy she may
need to show her appreciation. About The Author: Caterina Christakos is a published author

Online
Dating Safety Tips
How safe is Online Dating?
The following advice comes to you courtesy of
Prime Singles...
and it pretty well applies to all Online Dating sites:
Safety-wise, meeting on the Net is inherently
similar to meeting offline.
As long as the same standard dating precautions are
followed, cyber-savvy daters can feel truly at ease while getting to know each other. The
main thing to remember: trust your instincts and use common sense just like you would
offline.
Helpful Hints
- Remember that you are in control of your online experience
at all times. You can remain completely anonymous until you feel ready.
- You are also in control when it comes to taking an online
relationship offline. Plus, you have an advantage online because you can get to know each
other before you meet. Remember that you don't need to take anything further than the
computer or phone wires until you feel completely at ease. Go at your own pace!
- When you do decide to meet face to face, pick a public place
and provide your own transportation to and fro. Tell a friend where you're going and check
in when you return home.
- Never include your personal contact information in your
profile, especially telephone numbers, email, home address or your last name, and only
give them out when your instincts tell you this is someone you can trust. It's okay to
take your time.
- Set up an email account just for online personals.
- Ask a lot of questions and watch for inconsistencies.
- Stay away from members who won't take no for an answer or
pressure you for any kind of personal information. Serious cyber-savvy daters will respect
your space and allow you to take your time.
- If someone asks you to go to their personal web site or asks
you for money, use common sense not to oblige and then report the situation to the dating
site.
- If someone gives you a phone number with a strange area
code, check it out to make sure it's not a charge number before you make the call.
- Using your own good judgment is your best bet because
ultimately you are responsible for your personal dating experience. Trust your instincts
and then have fun with the right people!

Dating
Communication Do's & Don'ts
by: Jessica Jasmine
A very important ingredient to having a superior relationship lies in good communication.
In fact, it is almost impossible to have any kind of relationship with a person unless you
are able to relate to him or her. The ability to communicate effectively
means that you have to pay close attention and to listen very carefully. We all have
different method of communication. You need to be able to understand, appreciate, and
respect how other
people communicate, especially your dating partner.
A good way to show your date that you are listening carefully to him or her is to repeat
what he or she has said. Say for example your partner tells you: "You have been very
distant lately," you
then say, "So you are saying I have been distant?" Follow up with an open ended
question like "Tell me more about what you mean." By saying that, you can verify
what your spouse has said and make him or her feel comfortable about talking to you about
his or her concern.
How you communicate with your words could bring comfort by reducing fear and easing
tension. The following are some guiding principles to help you take advantage of your
words and get your point across more effectively:
Do make the person you are talking to feel secure by offering a lot of support and
appreciation. This gets the silent types to open up more and feel at ease.
Don't make your date feel uncomfortable by judging, criticizing, or making fun of what he
or she has to say.
Do relax. Feeling anxious can mess up your confidence and attention. Take deep breathes
when you feel like you need to end the conversation because of fear or panic.
Don't feel that everything has to be resolved at one time.
Do listen carefully and avoid interrupting while the other person is talking.
Don't use offensive vocabularies and expressions. It is very disrespectful and cheapens
you and the person you are talking to.
Do get to the point and be clear on what you want to get across or if you have any
questions.

How
to Use Your Brain to Seduce Women
by: Caterina Christakos
CHESS-MATE
If you're one of those guys telling to yourself that
Antonio Banderas might be a little prettier then you but again your IQ beats that of
Einstein by an inch, than the next lines were written for you. You have to know how to use
your advantage against a two-digit IQ macho-man and this is no easy deal. Some studies
even say that intelligence alone is actually not too sexy to most people. Therefore it
would be wiser to use intelligent ways to seduce a woman then just act smart.
There are more ways to do this, some better and some worse.
For example, you can be immoral enough to use your wits just to have sex, by manipulating
women. For this "hit-and-run" approach you'll need a little more than just your
intelligence, you'll have to know how the human mind, women's in particular, work in order
to outsmart them, control the game and win it using their own weapons. But before you get
to keen on the idea just remember that there are other, more honest ways of winning a
woman's admiration.
All of our actions, interacting with the opposite sex
included, involve a little risk taking. If you think you are the hit-and-run type of guy
maybe you should watch Cruel Intentions and destroy all the excitement that comes with the
game. But if you're not then just "go with the flow" and see what happens.
Gamble a little and let romance play its natural role in a relationship.
If you take things even further into consideration you
might end up concluding that every single word and gesture we do when we interact with
another person has its risky part in it. Saying "HI" to a stranger on the
street, asking someone on a date, asking for her phone number in the middle of the date or
trying to get the first kiss at the end of the night... There are always two
possibilities: the YES possibility and the NO possibility. But would it be so exciting if
you wouldn't take all these risks?
Compare this interaction with a snow boulder! With each
risk you decided to take the boulder gets bigger and heavier. And if all goes well it will
get big enough to become unstoppable. That's when you can say that you have a real
relation.
Playing the game smartly also includes playing it honestly.
The hit-and-run guys pose as the feminist sensitive men while using their wits to control
the game and reach their goals. But sincerity is about something else, it's about being
yourself.
More than that it is about being comfortable with who you
are entirely. It's about doing what you want to do and not fear that you will lose
something because of your actions. And most importantly it's about honestly not want
something in particular from a woman because seducing a woman is not a goal in itself, is
not a hunting game, nor a chess game. It's just our way of finding the other half.
