It may seem silly to ask, but I believe it is a valid question. Everyone dates, but not everyone dates for the same reasons. When I began dating as SCG, I wanted to get my feet wet and possibly engage in a series of short term relationships. I needed to know what I was seeking, the qualities I really liked in a person and what I truly sought in a relationship. Thru my process, I knew my goal was to meet a quality woman, and enjoy my time with her. While the process didn’t happen as I would have liked, the end goal was met. [Read The Rest Of This Entry]

It takes about six months to determine if you’ll have any dating success. I know there are books that promise meeting women in 30 days, but that’s only a part of the formula. To achieve any real success with dating, it requires hard work, making many mistakes, and figuring out what works best for you. It took me about four and a half months to meet my current girlfriend.

The past week I’ve been on OkCupid searching for potential dates. While I’ve come across plenty of great profiles enticing me to initiate contact and horrible profiles I’ve had to pass on. When I began online dating many years ago, much of the profile creating advice was geared towards men, plenty of guys thought a shirtless picture and sparse description would woo the masses. It doesn’t. Over time the advice has been more even handed, however, women still need plenty of help here. In searching for potential dates, I’ve found several irritating trends.
