- First and foremost, try to figure out if their profile is real. This actually may be the hardest part of all, because it’s so easy to create misleading profiles on any social networking site – all you need is a name and a few pictures. It’s like creating a new lifestyle for yourself online – that’s sure how they see it. I’m not saying you should distrust everyone you talk to. Haven’t you noticed that some people’s profiles just seem fishy enough at the first glance? Try to look for inconsistencies in their timeline, or photographs, or photographs at weird angles, don’t look like themselves in each photo, etc.

- You sure can ask for a lot of photographs, and they might send them to you, but you still can’t be sure that it’s them. (more…)

- Getting lingerie a size too small. We never like the fact that we’ve grown a size, but being honest with ourselves is our best bet. Yes, we’ll lose the weight, eventually. We don’t have to put off buying nice naughty underwear just because we don’t feel we look good. Try things on, feel comfortable in the clothing you’re going to be strutting your stuff in.

- Going overboard and getting something that’s not your “style.” Sure we’d all love to fit in PVC or vinyl, but come on girls, it’s not “becoming” on all of us! Be subtle. Don’t go for extreme stuff unless you’re comfortable with it. Remember: Sexy doesn’t have to mean extremely kinky and uncomfortable!

- Buying cheap stuff. Remember, cheap material tears easily (keep this in mind when you’re going to be all frisky – unless you want it to tear off easily!), and could chafe your skin if it’s not hypoallergenic or is made of only synthetic materials. (more…)

- Know beforehand what each of you wants to do during your romantic getaway. This will eliminate any conflict on what each other’s tastes and wants are. One of you may want to go on lengthy sightseeing tours, and the other may want to just cuddle under the stars. Make sure you won’t get bored with yourselves! Talk about it well before your trip. You don’t necessarily have to plan out the whole thing (the most fun things come up without plans!) but at least have what you’d both like to do in mind. And please, respect the other’s wants and feelings – if what you want to do is completely different between the both of you, split your activities in half! Just make sure to be civil and not fight about the differences. (more…)

I’m sure that many readers will protest to all this, but I’m just talking about the primitive “bootstrap” differences between men and women. You can’t battle primitive instincts or biology; we’re all hard-wired the same way, which is practically the way of the jungle – this hard-wiring really makes it tough for both genders to get along in today’s society.
Here are just a few of the major differences between men and women: (more…)

Many men think that women blow them off because the girls are stuck-up, high maintenance and only look for men with cars, money and power. That’s not always the case, though. Here are a few reasons why your pick-up tactics and techniques really aren’t working.

- You just come on too damn strong. This is a major turn off – you try to be “creative” and “straightforward” – that’s intimidating and downright scary. Imagine you just arrived at a bar, and you see a guy trying to hit on your girlfriend. What pick up line and tactics would be enough for you to want to punch him in the face? That is coming on too strong. Many guys don’t get that this is one of the main things you have to avoid. Subtlety is best, and it works too – keep it simple! (more…)

“My girlfriend tracks my every move.”

“My husband thinks I’m sleeping around with all his friends.”

“My fiancee thinks I’m interested in other girls.”

How many times have you heard all this, or said them yourself?

Here are ways to deal with and handle jealousy within your relationship.

- First and most obvious, talk about it. There’s no better way than to find out why your partner is jealous. It could be because they are so deeply in love with you, and not because they think you are doing anything wrong. (more…)

- You first of all must understand that you are two different people, no matter how alike you are, and it’s practically impossible to be on the same page all the time. Until direct brain connection is invented, we’re unfortunately going to have to accept the fact that we’re going to have separate ideas from everyone else in the world! (more…)

- Take some time to really think of their interests. What are their hobbies? What do they search for on the Internet, what television shows or kind of movies do they watch? Are they into sports? Do they read books, and what kind? This is a surefire way of finding something that caters perfectly to their tastes.

- Think of their softer side. Even guys may want teddy bears, or the most practical woman. Christmas gifts can be more cuddly and emotional. How about a Santa bear with a cute little Santa Claus hat? It’s enough to warm anyone’s heart this holiday season! (more…)

- Women need to live and feel that extra romantic step. Truth be told, apart from discussing having children together, a marriage proposal is just about the most romantic thing a woman can think of – this is why there are all these stories of extravagant and crazy proposals, and not just the normal, perfectly romantic fancy-restaurant-down-on-one-knee stories.

Here are some simple things that will help you get over your breakup, and start enjoying being single.

- Embrace it. The more you try to forget the things that happen and purposely put them out of your mind, the more you beat yourself up for feeling bad. You think it’s wrong and try to change your feelings. It’s not, though. It’s fine to mourn. You must do it, and feel the grief so you can finally get over it. It’s a normal process, and necessary so we can get over things. (more…)
