Dating Advice, Relationship Problems

Let's face it, our Internet connections are technologically induced as well as the emotions that result. Images are altered to impress. Words are specially selected to persuade us to "choose me," chat and make an appointment to see a potential partner . Dating preferences are sometimes embellished to lure you in and keep you captivated. E-mail, text, and video stories are at times are vague, inaccurate or insulting. The voice on the other end of the phone or via video chat is controlled as well as behaviors. A stranger is careful not to irritate you or send you running. Most likely, these potential dates recall the arguments they had with exes and the barrage of insults they endured that revealed their weaknesses prior to connecting with you. Therefore, they know what to do to hide flaws so that they can attract new mates before the unsuspecting are on to their games. So if you feel a tad bit tricked or cheated when it comes to online dating, you have been.

Over and over again a single woman is let down by a date. She swipes, scrolls, and taps looking for her next encounter that will make her forget about her last unsuccessful meeting. But to no avail, he seems to be more problematic than the previous male that caught her eye. A single man finally decides to make arrangements to date again only to find out the dating scene hasn’t changed much. He is often disappointed with what appears to look good on a dating profile but falls flat once seen in person. What is the problem with these two as well as many other hopeful singles? There is no single answer and with every online or offline exchange with a fellow single, you just can’t avoid the things you simply don’t like about people. It goes back to what I mentioned in a previous blog entry some years back, you have to accept the bitter with the sweet, the cons with the pros, if you are determined to make things work with someone. I recall setting my standards both hi

When it comes to the things that matter in his life, you notice he is talking to everyone but you.   When exactly you noticed his behavior doesn’t matter, he could have suddenly acted this way or he could have gradually became distant.   All you know is that he is different and you need some help analyzing why, so that you can put your plan B into motion, that is if you have one.   So review the signs that follow then create a plan for yourself and/ or relationship that will bring you love and peace. In the beginning of the relationship he was “all smiles” with you.   He shared stories of his daily events, how you made him feel, and future plans of how he hoped to spend life with you.   Nowadays he isn’t saying much more than a “hello” and a “goodbye.”   Here’s what may have happened.  Use this list of possibilities to start a conversation with your boyfriend. He doesn’t feel comfortable talking to you.   There may have been moments where he said or did something that upset you i

You might have made up in your mind this is the last relationship, last date, last friends with benefits arrangement, last marriage, or cheating you will do with someone.  But what happens when you are officially done with this connection?  What might replace the void left behind? Sometimes people end up going back to unfulfilling connections once they are so-called over, because they never bothered to consider what might bring peace to them long after the thrill has gone with someone.  It isn't too soon to start thinking about the break up , your new life, and what the future holds for you.  When you are truly ready to make something your last, you either will stick with him or her or let that person go altogether.  Your mind is only going to get along or go along with someone before it screams one day, "Now why are we in this?  Don't I deserve better?"  "Better" doesn't come from another  human being it comes from within.  If I want "better&q

Whether he or she is Caucasian, African American, Mexican, Chinese, Korean, Filipino, or something in between you need to be understanding of one’s culture and be prepared for how society will treat you both. When one is in love there are no color issues.   He or she only sees a person who is kind, considerate, loving, sweet, beautiful, and everything he or she has wanted and more.   They couple might fantasize about getting married one day and having children.   It’s easy to feel this way behind closed doors, sitting in a car with steamy windows, or living in a neighborhood where people don’t think twice about an interracial couple.   However, what happens when you make your pledge of love to your significant in front of God, family and country?   Not everyone will be celebrating your new relationship .   Some will smile in your face and talk about you and your mate behind your back.   To this statement, most couples will say, “So what?”   Family and friends’ reactions to your

If you didn't intend to give him an excuse to go out and cheat , he just might use the following to do it.  Not every man is guilty of cheating, but give them a reason and who knows what might happen? One.   Telling him, “Go to her…Find someone else I don’t need you anyway!” when you don’t really mean it.   Some men whether they have someone else they are seeing will take you up on this statement.   When you are arguing , try to refrain from telling him this if you still want to be with him. Two.   Making false accusations without proof.   So you found a number you don’t recognize somewhere in his belongings, big deal!   It means nothing if you don’t call it and someone on the other end of the phone says, “Yes, I did sleep with Jim.”   The real proof is the kind that no matter what he says or does he can’t wiggle out of any of it when confronted. Three.   Refusing to forgive him for the past.   You told him that you forgave him, yet you still bring up what he did to you

The news shocked the nerves of yet another couple. “You are pregnant ,” the nurse announced. The couple had talked about the possibility of having a child one day, just not so soon after meeting each other less than a year ago. They both were in agreement about not having an abortion, but quietly they wished that the news had been untrue at least for now. Once the couple got over the shock, they told only a select few about the pregnancy. They weren’t in a rush to reveal the baby news to all of their critical family and friends. They thought of their religious grandparents "You're not even married," their vain parents, “I’m too young to be a grandparent!” and their “too busy to care” friends, "That's nice, when are you coming over for drinks."  Further, they knew no one on either side of their intermediate family who would be celebrating yet another birth, since their siblings had already filled the first grandchildren vacancies. Therefore, with all th
