When you use Internet dating sites, you increase your opportunities to meet someone a hundred fold. If you are tech savvy or young, you already know this. Many people expertly navigate their way through the web and make use of it to expand their social networking. If you have not taken advantage of Internet dating, you would be wise to talk to others who know how to use it effectively. Learning to use the techniques, tools, websites, language, and safety measures are important for your success.
But whether you are new to this resource, or a seasoned pro, you may want to stop and think about the following points. Here are five questions to ask yourself before you set up a meeting with an online interest:

What’s going on for us when we stay in a bad relationship? Do we think if we just try harder, work more, or improve ourselves— or the other person— it will get better? Do we stay stuck because we think that happy fulfilling relationships are a fairy tale, or that all of life is a compromise, or that we are just expecting too much?
If your mind or heart are rumbling around in any of the above questions or doubts, and your relationship is not the haven of love and support you want it to be, here are some guidelines to help you sort it out:
Is Your Home Ready for Dating?

Is your home ready for you to invite someone new to come over? Sometimes a relationship can be finished before it begins because once he or she sees how you live—the person never wants to come back.Have you ever been guilty of having dirty laundry spilling out of the hamper, dishes stacked in the sink, or the kitchen table piled with mail? Was your bed unmade and your sheets hadn’t been washed in over a month when you left for work today? Was there mold or mildew growing in the bathroom, or polka dots of toothpaste littering the sink?
These are all the signs that you have not prepared your home for a prospective romantic visitor. What does it take for you to get your living space in alignment with your goals to have a great relationship? Listen up:
7 Reasons Why You Fail at Dating
Monday, 20 September 2010 00:00
Whenever I meet single people who are attractive, engaging, and kind, and they tell me their reasons why they can’t—or don’t—date, it’s frustrating. Because I know it doesn’t have to be that way. To substantiate their opinions, they often have three or four friends who feel the same, and when they get together with their beliefs, they reinforce their unwritten law: dating is impossible. However, the reasons they give have nothing to do with why they sit at home alone.
Are you also someone who can’t date because you have reasons? Are you too old, fat, thin, rich, poor, tall, short, uneducated, educated, shy, or talkative? Do you assume that the world is NOT populated with single attractive dates you would be interested in—or who would be interested in you? In a country with over 110 million singles, do you believe, “There’s no one out there?”
Let’s identify the seven REAL reasons why you fail at dating and turn it around.
What Women Really Want

Not too long ago, I wrote a column about what men want. My email box was loaded with messages from men who said, “You got it right!” Notes from women asked if I’d write something about what they need to know about themselves…and what men need to understand about women.
Men and women’s attempts to try and communicate their differences and similarities are eternal. How we’re all wired, collectively and individually, is a mystery to be unraveled throughout a lifetime. However, with current research and information, and my own observations and experience in working with clients on their relationships, certain themes appear…over and over.
Before the following information will land with any meaning or significance to a man, the obvious is imperative: he needs to be with the woman he loves deeply, who is an honorable, trustworthy, and kind person. If she doesn’t meet that criterion, then he is with the wrong person… and will find it difficult to give his current woman what she wants.
So, Gentlemen: What do women really want?
