Some Dating Email Dos And Don’ts
Quick tips on CNN provided by the site TheFrisky.com for sending emails and overall I found the advice good. In some ways I was surprised as I find myself shaking my head more often than not when the main stream media dives into the dating advice business. Maybe it made sense since someone else wrote it (although I’m not actually familiar with TheFrisky.com). I will say that number 5, which says you should wait at [...]

I’ve not had much to say lately…and by lately I mean for the last year or so. I always had a vision for my site: share what I had learned from online dating with others. Once I had posted all the concrete examples I had to share I found myself looking for excuses to post (and I don’t feel like these posts were all that helpful). Eventually I decided to stop posting, allowing to let the site continue on as-is. [...]

Near the end of my online dating, I discovered that sharing my dating experiences with my dates really opened the discussion up. Not only that, these candid conversations also opened my eyes to the absolute hassle women have to go through and gave me a glimpse of how they felt about online dating in general. Eventually, I found I was even enjoying dates where there was no “spark” because we became fast friends sharing our online dating experiences. Since my [...]

Since I started this site a few months ago, I’ve been actively looking for great resources that I could share here. Unfortunately, almost everything I have found online has fallen into one of three categories:
Overly general advice that feels extremely polished and impersonal. For example, the type of advice I would expect to see in a Maxim magazine (but less humorous). I find it hard to put much confidence into something that reads as if a team of writers tried [...]

I am always hesitant to give women advice for online dating. Primarily, this is based on conversations I had with dates during my internet dating days. One great conversation starter was to simply talk about the online experience itself. These conversations revealed how very different a woman’s experiences were from mine, although many were similar to one another. While I would compare my experience to searching for that needle in the haystack, these women had experiences more comparable to trudging [...]

Earlier this year, I was trying to determine if there was any use for a blog like this. If the web was saturated with every other person’s opinion on how online dating is best approached, I’d skip it. Specifically, I was searching for dating sites that provided a significant amount of advice. Most of the dating sites I found were fine but I disagreed with how some of them recommended a person find dating success. It’s not that I think [...]

Perhaps the only downside to consistent success dating online (or any dating, really) is that all that courting starts to hit the wallet pretty hard. I eventually settled on meeting at coffee shops which was cheap but lacked creativity and fun. This article has some great ideas for cheap dates without making sacrifices on enjoyability. Several of these would not work very well in the early dates so use your head! In my opinion, the best first date options listed [...]

As the name suggests, Top Online Dating Sites and Services is a list of dating services that I feel offer value for their usability and features. The dating sites are listed because ease-of-use, popularity, honest business practices, etc. Personally, I stuck with the best known companies when dating online because I believed this would give me the best odds (I assumed the best known would have the most members). Regardless, this list should offer some value as I have [...]
