She was a minister seeking a great guy online to get to know and hopefully marry one day. He was a lonely guy who just broke up with one of many sexual partners and was hoping to land "a good woman" after finding his sexual conquests were unfulfilling. Both registered with a popular Christian dating site. Before long, the two would meet and exchange brief notes online asking typical questions like: "Why did you choose this site? What are you looking for in a new relationship? Where do you desire to live? Do you have any children? How long ago was your last dating experience?" It all seemed so harmless, at least in the beginning, that is until the stories shared between the two resulted in some harsh words exchanged a few times. The woman of God wasn't interested in "no heathen who would mess up her spiritual walk." Her online connection was encouraging her to invite him to her home for some "cuddling." On the other hand, he wasn'...

For the majority of couples, a new marriage starts off fairly smoothly. Sure, there are some hiccups here and there, but for the most part things are good. The couple finds pleasure in doing the simple things together, like setting up a household, spending time together, and maybe even making plans for having kids of their own one day. In almost every marriage, there will naturally come times when things do not go quite so smoothly. These rough patches may start after a few months or a few years, but they will most likely start at some point for every married couple. This is just part of married life. In the healthiest of marriages, the couple learns to find ways to work things out between themselves. Even a good argument now and then is a sign that things are going well. It is a sign of health when a couple can discuss, debate and even argue once in a while as a way to settle their differences. In fact, it is precisely when a couple fails to communicate that the problems really get se...

When you're on an online dating site, you open your heart in the hopes of finding someone special. Unfortunately, there are some people out there who want to take advantage of that. So even though you should still be open, you still need to protect yourself. Here are a few things online dating tips on what to look out for and how protect your online identity. 1. Protect your password: This is common sense. Think of it this way - you would never give your bank card number and password to someone just because they asked for it, would you? You should think of your password to whatever dating site you've joined. Never share your password with anyone inside or outside of the site. In fact, the only page that should ask for your user name and password is the login page. 2. Sharing personal information: It's called a public profile for a reason, as everyone on the site can see it. So if you don't want any Tom, Dick or Harry calling you up, don't put your ...

There are many white men who are attracted to and like to date black women. While it may not seem as common as other interracial parings, such as white men and Asian women, the preference still definitely exists. Among white men who like to date black ladies, one of the primary concerns they have is "how do I attract them?" Without being to un-PC, "game" is typically different between black men and white men, and so the white guys may feel that they are at a disadvantage from the beginning. Fortunately for them, there are ways to entirely circumvent this! Black women (and all women, for that matter), can be divided into two main groups: Those who are attracted to white guys, and those who aren't. If you are interested in dating black women, you want to focus on the former group for one very important reason: you can spend all day trying to attract a women who isn't attracted to you, and it won't be successful. For this reason, you should ...

People often want to know what the best way to kiss is. This is a common instinct. We generally want some type of formula or recipe that tells us how to get the best result every single time, no matter the circumstances. Unfortunately (or maybe it is fortunate...) life rarely works out that way. There is really no single method that will work in every situation, and kissing is no exception. So, what is the best way to kiss? Well, that depends on your partner and the situation at hand. With experience you will learn when to perform different types of kisses, but for now, here are three of the best to use at particular times. Let us say that you have had a date with someone you have never kissed before. You have been waiting all night for that first kiss, but the opportunity never seemed to present itself. Now you are dropping your date off at their house, and you think you see your chance. The goodnight kiss. It is the perfect time, right? Wrong. If you have not previ...

Here are some date rape statistics that you might find informative. Date rape is a simplistic term that can also be under the category of domestic violence. The sexual assault doesn't have to involve going out on a date. Rape is rape. The following date rape statistics come from The American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress: College Campus Statistics One in four women surveyed was a victim of rape or attempted rape. An additional one in four women surveyed was touched sexually against her will or was a victim of sexual coercion. 84 percent of those raped knew their attacker. 57 percent of those raped happened while on dates. One in twelve male students surveyed had committed acts that met the legal definitions of rape or attempted rape. 84 percent of those men who committed rape said that what they did was definitely not rape. Sixteen percent of the male students who committed rape and ten percent of those who attempted a rape took part in episodes involvi...

Herpes, a highly contagious sexually transmitted disease will get in the way of your dating and love life if you let it. For example, if you try and talk about it with a new love or dating interest, there is a very good chance you'll be rejected as someone he or she would like to start a relationship with. Tread slowly with someone new if you don't feel comfortable discussing it and don't become intimate until you do feel comfortable. On one hand, you really can't blame a potential match for rejecting you. After all, you have an infectious sexually transmitted disease. And they will always doubt your decision making process no matter what they say. So why bother? On the other hand, wouldn't it make more sense to meet potential love or dating interests who have herpes already? Why go through the guilt, shame and rejection with non-herpes people when thousands of people in your own area who have herpes are available and share your outlook on dating? ...

Looking for someone is hard enough, so when you have to deal with a dating site that doesn't give you all the information you need to make a very serious decision on whether to date someone or not, it can be disheartening. Here are some things you need to pay attention to when registering at dating sites. Easy exchange of email and instant messages. The ability to upload many photos that show every facet of your life. There is the sexy photo, the playful shot and everything else in between! You should be able to view who is online right now, who is new to the area, most popular, and who recently viewed your profile. Your match should not be based solely on a questionnaire, but there should be similarities that come up when you search favorite movies, travel places, foods, favorite hangout spots and things that make you feel good as well as irritate you. Lastly, you should be able to record a voice message and hear your dating interest's voice clearly. When you have all of ...

Promises to call day one passes day two drags day three? Still no call. Why put the anxious on hold? Reaching out only to catch a dial tone. Thinking of someone isn't enough. Calling means so much more! What does it take to make the blind see? A perfect chance for romance may be lost. If only the call had been made... a later regret. The ultimatum, choices pick dial speak or be disconnected. Nicholl McGuire, Poet, Author, Blogger and Internet Content Producer. For more of her work, visit this site.

Sometimes, an otherwise pleasurable date can seem to go awry for no apparent reason. Here are the minor slip-ups and mistakes which could be holding you back from dating success. Looking over your date’s shoulder Is there something fascinating going on immediately behind your date? Perhaps a waiter slipped dramatically on a banana-skin, or George Clooney is sitting opposite Cameron Diaz and they are both wearing elaborate hats. Let it go. Looking over your date’s shoulder will come across as rude, and the person you are dating will feel offended and think you are not interested in them. Talking about the ex Imagine you move into a new house and discover it’s still full of the previous resident’s belongings – a bit of a disappointment and a lot of hard work ahead trying to deal with all that old baggage. This is similar to the feeling a person will get when dating someone who is still preoccupied with thoughts of their ex. Discussions about exes should be kept between fr...

Have you tried online dating yet? If so, you might be one of the 90% of men who quit online dating within the first few months because they weren't getting any results. How frustrating this is when you think about all the possibilities that online dating presents. Well, I'm about to share with you 10 fatal mistakes which men make while online dating, and how you can avoid them and turn your results around. Mistake #10: Picking Crappy Sites This one mistake can cost you hours and hours of your time. The trick is full of lousy dating sites, some of which create fake female profiles in order to beef up their member base. So men sign up for accounts on these low-budget sites, send out a bunch of emails...and of course, they get very few (or none) back. Better to make the investment in a membership at one of the more reputable sites. Mistake #9: Not Taking Enough Action Most men don't realize how rare it is to get responses from emails sent to women on online...

In today's lifestyle there are several reasons why women are either single by choice, single again or widowed at a young age. Many of these women are struggling to live a Christian life and they have the forces of the world beating them down daily. Economics make up a large portion of problems for single parents. Loneliness is faced daily. Work obligations enter into the lives of the parent and the children and there never seems to be enough hours in the day. Then there is the ever problem of living a life where God calls for purity in our life in all areas. The single life gives us a unique time and opportunity to work on our own personal self, develop a variety of relationships and a variety of ways that we can serve in the church. However, single women particularly, face a "stigma" in the church. Since "people will be people"; this will likely never change. Single women must constantly take care of their behavior, their dress, their association...

Online dating can be an excellent way to meet men. This is especially true if you are a single that has recently gone through a divorce or breakup. The reason what makes this method of dating so powerful is because it allows you to slowly ease your way back into the dating scene without being overwhelmed. However, it is the same convenience of being protected from being overwhelmed that can be your downfall in actually finding and attracting the right man again. You see, what usually happens is, when many women that are in a similar situation to you get back into the dating scene, they will continue to talk about their past relationships. This is normal because they are still getting over the whole ordeal of that relationship. Unfortunately, most men who are looking to date woman online find this off-putting to a certain degree. Yes, there are those that take pity in a woman that has gone through a lot of emotional heartbreak. Unfortunately, what you are really looking...
