A week ago I was on the train heading to work, and I saw something very interesting, an older white man in a suit with his woman cuddling on the train. This may seem like something that isn’t post worthy, many couples cuddle with one another on the train. You may even begin to develop a mental image of some guy in his 50‘s with a woman holding hands and cuddling. Normal PDA stuff, which I agree isn’t anything to dedicate a blog post to.
What they were doing wasn’t very interesting, who they were was. While the man seemed like he was heading to some sort of corporate meting, the woman was completely different from what I would have assumed he would be with; she was a slightly younger Asian woman in casual clothes which revealed her many tattoos. The image in my mind was that he was a business man and she was an artist. My first thought when I saw them; “Awesome!” [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

Some people are extremely dateable and others not so much. In between the two there’s plenty of grey to wade thru. I believe everyone has at least one person who’s right for them, regardless of their situation, condition, or sexuality. For those on one end of the spectrum, you may not have to do much to find a date, how ever on the other side, there’s plenty of work that must be done.
Everyone wants to date a sexy, hot, fit model. Unless you have the money, charm, wit, smarts and success, along with being just as hot, fit and sexy, your chances are slim. There are exceptions to the rules, and money, wit and charm doesn’t get you everything. Lets be honest, it gives you a great running start. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

Not every person is the right person for you. We all have different types of people that we would like to date. For example, I love mentally strong women who are willing to share their opinions. I rather the person I date speak their mind than engage in passive aggressive behavior to make their point. This doesn’t mean I want to be with some sort of dominatrix, or a military hard ass. My woman has to have some sass to her, and not easily offended by my off color jokes. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

Today’s world is centered on instant gratification. It’s beyond accomplishing tasks faster, better and efficiently, but wanting something right freaking now. Often I want to accomplish a blog post, a task, or hanging out with my girlfriend for the instant gratification it will provide. Often I miss out on the things I need to do, letting them pile up until I’m stressed and they spill over. “Faster, better, right now” often doesn’t provide the desired results.
Dating and creating a relationship takes time, patience, and honest commitment. While I’ve learned all of these lessons from dating and dealing with the hiccups of my relationship, the lesson has been best learned thru this blog. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

Life fluctuates, there are good days, bad days, and in-between days. Some days a the feeling of invincibility comes over us, when it seems everything is going your ways. Other times the world decides it’s time to whoop our ass, as if we were a crook who ran away from the NYPD. This fluctuation is the natural progression of life, it’s balanced by the high’s a lows; the same reasons it’s cold in the winter and warm in the summer. It’s nature’s way of putting everything in balance.
When it comes to dating and relationship advice, this natural fluctuation is often ignored. Most of the dating advice for men are ways to meet women immediately and women are often given advice on how to immediately change their looks to immediately attract men. These tips make it seem as if we can walk out of the door at any given moment and have droves of potential dates at our feet without much of a hassle. This simply isn’t the case, dating is hot and cold. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

If you’ve ever watched Hitch (or the trailer), he says, “Women equate dancing to sex.” There may be some truth here, but I would like to make a broader point. If you don’t know what you’re doing, you will embarrass yourself at the club, in front of many people. Good luck on surviving the night after embarrassing of yourself. Dancing like a fool will lower your chances of meeting someone, or even having someone approach you in a club setting. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

“The person you’re going to marry isn’t at the club,” a friend once told me. It was a message I was often reminded by friends and my experiences during my days of frequent clubbing. While I agree with the statement, exceptions to the rule exist. I have a dear friend who I often club with, who has found several quality people while out partying. I also believe she’s a quality person herself.
Outside of the exceptions, the statement my friend told me is true, very rarely are you going to find a quality date at the club. However, as guys, we often aren’t reminded or told to recognize this fact. We always believe there’s a quality person at the club just for us. I’ve seen many men fall heads of heels for a woman on the dance floor, only to get their hearts ripped out, or end up in very bad relationships. It’s not that quality women don’t go to clubs, but they aren’t the majority. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

While I’m fighting the sharp tingle of a hangover that pierces the back of my head, I’m reminded by a rule I’ve often broken at the club, overdoing it. There’s nothing wrong with going out and getting drunk, but there’s a limit, one many of us have passed in our adventures drinking. I’ve found ways to leave my limits waving to me on the horizon of “this is going to hurt in the morning” road many times. Getting buzzed or a bit drunk is okay, but no one loves a sloppy drunk. I’ve found that many sloppy drunk women are hit on my really creepy men, mainly because they are seen as vulnerable and an easy lay. I’ve also found many sloppy drunk men tend to me more aggressive and dickish, often finding themselves fights or passed out. Yep, this is the cats meow!
There’s nothing wrong with partying, but going to far overboard, while trying to meet someone will cause trouble. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

The dating blogger community is very interesting and unique. There’s as much drama, backstabbing and gossiping as in any other niche community. Someone we can’t see outside of the bubble to realize that, this is really just that, a niche. It’s a part of our lives, but at times we all believe it to be our life. That’s when we make a very large mistake.
Dating isn’t the same thing as a relationship, which isn’t the same thing as marriage. These are all niches under a larger umbrella, lifestyle. While there are magazines dedicated to dating, there’s also magazines dedicated to sports, fishing, and interior decorticating. They are all facests of our life, but not our lives. They all make up a part of our lifestyle. At one time or another, they may take the dominant position. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

I’ve pointed the limited and narrow dating requirements women tend to seek in potential dates. Men tend to be more liberal, when it comes to physical characteristics, we are picky in other ways. I’ve always thought I needed a woman who loved sports as much as I do, when in actuality I needed a woman who understood my love for sports. It was the quality of the person that had given me the success I have, instead of a check list of requirements. I’m not suggesting all requirements be discarded, I’m merely saying they aren’t the primary focus. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]
