Date.com Review

December 2nd, 2009 at 10:59 am (Dates, Gender Issues Parlor, Have Fun)

Date.com claims to have been launched on Valentines Day in 1997. Since that time, Date.com has collected over 2,000,000 members to its online dating service. These matchmakers have been in this business for nearly ten years now. Their service is the work of trained professionals, based on scientific methods. Psychologists and relationship experts helped to found the profile methods Date.com uses.

Your profile includes your appearance and physical stats, your career and financial profile and whatver else interests you. When you create your profile, youll be able to write an essay to describe and summarize yourself. I would suggest being brief, but insightful. Finally, you have the option to include a photo or not.

When you begin searching for potential matches, you can search profiles that are location-specific. That way, if you live in Battle Creek, Michigan, you dont get a match in Thailand. Also, you can search the profiles using more specific details, truly as detailed as you like. As always, people want to know who or what they are meeting, so it is best to add a photo of yourself. Remember that you probably wouldnt want to take a chance on someone unwilling to show their face off in public. If you subscribe to the service, you become a gold member. The gold members are allowed email access to other members, as well as the right to enter the Date.com chat rooms. One of the best parts of a dating service is the ability to enter the chat rooms, where you can impress the other members with your wit while at the same time seeing if the cutie in the picture is more obnoxious than your crazy uncle.

The gold status also gives you access to the Date.com auto-match option. Date.com does all the searching for you, matching one profile with another. Finally, gold status give you preferred status on the search lists. Basically, you are buying advertisement on the Date.com site.

Stop Making Unhappy Relationship Mistakes! Avoid Another Unhappy Relationship!

May 23rd, 2008 at 4:07 am (Gender Issues Parlor)

It is possible for women to steer clear of an unhappy
relationship. However, it will require taking an honest look at
themselves and their relationship mistakes.

After repeating the same relationship mistakes over and over
gain, women begin to realize something is not working. The easy
way out is to blame the men. However, if one looks deep enough
the only consistent variable in every relationship is the woman!

Women who feel they “love” a man will stay in an unhappy
relationship longer than they should. This often causes
psychological trauma that can take years to overcome!

This trauma also makes it difficult for the woman to accept, and
open up to, a decent man who is not responsible for the hurt and
pain caused by the previous relationship.

One of the keys for women to break free from an unhappy
relationship is to determine if their needs are being met!

Since many women are emotional creatures while in love, they
often become confused. Simple relationship mistakes such as
confusing a want with a need can result in women dating men who
are not compatible with them.

Every woman’s goal should be to identify those small
relationship mistakes that cause most, if not all, of their
problems. The results will lead to a happier life.

What also hurts women is their rush to get into a relationship
to avoid being alone. Many women have paid a heavy price by
moving too fast such as losing their life, contracting a
sexually transmitted disease or being abused to name a few.

Every unhappy relationship that ended has small nuggets of
wisdom women can learn from. Plus, each of those relationships
most likely ended for the same reason although it may not appear
that way!

Girls Puberty - An Emotional Time

April 26th, 2008 at 5:54 pm (Gender Issues Parlor)

Puberty is a difficult time for girls; they are between two worlds; girl & woman. Girls can experience rapid growth, breast enlargement, vaginal secretions, pubic, armpit, and leg hair growth. They can also feel discomfort, and pain caused by growing breast and their menstrual cycle.

There are also many chemical and physical changes that can affect a girl’s behavior, and attitude. These changes are often accompanied by mood swings, which may include sadness, excitability, depression, and an increased interest in her sexuality. These changes are a normal part of puberty, experienced by all girls.

Girls may also display a greater need for privacy and personal space during puberty. It is important for a girl to have some space, and privacy. Being able to get away from things can have a positive impact on girls’ emotions. But they must be careful not to distant themselves from family during this time.

Things like peer pressure, relationships, and family life can seem difficult. Talking to family can be a great benefit during this time. It is important to keep up communication, talking can help make the transition of puberty much easier.

My Special Evening

April 10th, 2008 at 9:29 am (Gender Issues Parlor)

My Special Evening
by Jacquelyn Hollister

Right at this moment, I am stressed. I need a special evening
all to my self. No kids, no husband, no worries. My special
evening would be all about self indulgence. First, I would
reserve a nice hotel room. Once there, I would turn on some
smooth jazz by Gerald Albright to get me going. Then, as I
danced to my jazzy grooves, I would place lavender scented
candles all over the place, especially in the bath area. After
that I would draw myself a nice hot bubble bath, a vanilla
scented bubble bath or maybe peppermint. Then I would undress,
slip into the tub, still groovin to Gerald Albright, lights off,
lavender candles burning, and meditate, soaking all my cares
away. After all of my stress swirled down the drain, I would dry
off and and then massage myself with some type of fruity scented
body lotion. Next I would slip on a nice comfortable sexy night
gown. Then I would pour myself a glass of wine and curl up on
the bed to read some of my favorite magazines like Heart and
Soul, Self, O(Oprah), Cosmopolitan, and Essence, or I would read
a book by my favorite author Iyanla Vanzant. Aaaah, what a nice
evening that would be for me… “Mommy, Mommy, Mommy”, “Did you
do this?”, “Did you do that?”, “I need this!”, “I need
that!”…Sorry, I have to go, but while Im tending to my kids
and husband, I will be planning my special evening set for this
weekend. You better believe it!
