Dating in the old traditional way can be a good thing
Tuesday, May 8th, 2012
We are living in a world that is moving very fast and as a result our entire life has to adapt with these changes. Vast amounts of information are now readily available on the net which means that we need to filter information more rapidly than ever before. If we don’t keep up with this information highway, we find ourselves lacking in substance and others will quickly lose interest in us. Much of this can also apply to the dates we find in our everyday life.
If you don’t create the right impression in the first date, you don’t break a sweat because you know there will be plenty of fish in the sea. Such superficial attention to detail can mean that you will be attracting the wrong types of date. This is where the old traditional way of dating can be a good thing. Let’s think about this for a moment. You are in this wave of constant movement where time is too short and you constantly find yourself moving and you naturally look for the same thing in your date. If he/she cannot keep up with your speed of light thought processes, you are moving on and you leave the date wondering whatever happened. Wrong thing to do!
You need to take a step back and ask yourself that if you did find someone who is equally matched to your lifestyle, will it be a good fit. Most definitely, the match would not work and here are the reasons. Firstly, the person you are dating also has a similar agenda to yourself and this means that you will be in constant loggerheads with each other prying for each others attention. What you need is a person completely polarized to your own lifestyle ie. someone who takes time and ponders about life and makes decisions carefully. You may feel that person is going to weigh you down, but in contrary this person is actually going to help you to regain your normal posture, balance and bring you into a more meditative space in time. This will empower you more in other activities where you need it most.
Learn from the old traditional way of dating where partners complement each other in their qualities and lifestyle rather than finding a true 100% match.

Free Dating Sites are Safe from Hackers unless You are a Big Name
Monday, May 7th, 2012
Online singles often complaint about that their accounts been compromised. Even the biggest free dating sites www.pof.com has been the victim of this as their critical user information has been stolen from their secure servers. This was news and a matter of concerns for all the players in the online dating industry in 2011 as CEO of POF Markus Frind gave this shocking news.
But, normally free dating sites are not the prime target of hackers whose first intention is to get the financial benefit from a hacked website. They get an increased benefit from directly stealing the credit card information or by stealing the vital and important user information which is worth millions of dollars.
One cannot avoid such attacks on their websites as this is going to happen if you are a big brand online which is what happened in the case of free dating sites www.pof.com. However the big question is who would have got the indirect benefit from this attack? The first thing that comes to any one’s mind would a business competitor. However, there are cases where websites have been hacked and data has been stolen just for fun or to test the skills of the hackers.
Currently the most happening things on the web are social networking and free dating sites. This is why no one can deny the fact that those two are the hacker’s paradise. Now the time has come for some the big name to create something like an anti-hacking cell that can monitor these kinds of attacks and prevent these hackers from stealing valuable information. Profile information is very sensitive and the bread and butter of any online dating sites and if a user starts feeling that their information is not safe online they would not fill out their complete profile which is again a set back for these free dating sites.
Comment on this article and let us know what you feel about this kind of hacking incidents and the stealing of users private information.

The nature of shortcomings in people - be mentally prepared
Sunday, May 6th, 2012
We all make mistakes and in the areas of couple relationships or when we are dating, the nature of our mistakes can become even more exaggerated. The question that follows, is what is the best way to deal with shortcomings in people.
Firstly, you will need to understand that everyone has shortcomings and our point of reference for people’s shortcomings are entirely based on our own experience. For example, if we feel that we do this and that and our partner is not able to do this and that, then this becomes a shortcoming in the other partner in our own eyes. Equally, your partner will also have a list of potential shortcomings in you! This is where couples learn to adjust and understand that this is the way of the nature and by talking about the subject often helps one to make reconciliations.
Often couples will try to aim for an exchange the services of their shortcomings. For example, you may be a good cook, then I cook and do the dishes. However, in my experience, this division of labor can lead to many problems and often induces self-frustration and leads to complications in the relationship. I believe, it is ok to divide some of the chores of the household or other matters but be very careful in not to take this too far. After all, you are both a couple and not a relationship of convenience.
It is important to know that aside from giving each other tasks based on each other’s shortcomings, is that you continue to overlap and look at many tasks that you can do together. Going out on a date night is ok, but there are plenty of other activities that will forge the relationship between you and your partner and make your relationship a more committed one. Try to think outside the box and do something totally different together instead of the usual walks, trips and regular activities that you are used to. The act of giving and doing something together are some of the paramount ways to build strong relationships.

Virtual Dating is not that far away
Saturday, May 5th, 2012
I recently made some changes to the way I receive the Internet primarily because I became hooked to video streaming via Netflix. In addition to the basic needs of internet usage such as checking email, reading news, paying bills, chatting online and even dating online, there is another big growth area. The interest and fascination in this growing area is due to the convergence of the high speed internet, large screen TVs and a diversity of content available on the web.
No longer are we tied to a handful of TV stations that control the way we watch TV, what we watch, how we watch because our choices have just increased many folds. We can now hook up our TV directly to the internet backbone and have a multitude of HD channels streamed instantly. With a high speed internet connection, the channels are surprisingly decent quality and I can foresee many interesting developments in this area. Even the traditional channels are understanding the significance of this change and have offered live streaming such as CNN, BBC etc.
It’s only a matter of time when singles like us will be joining the bandwagon and looking for online dates through this method. The trick with online dating is that it can become a bit routine and cumbersome to go and sit in front of your PC, open up the dating site and then login. This repetitive nature can lead to a loss of interest over time especially if nothing worthwhile materializes. However, with the advent of multi-streaming and many websites offering such service, online dating sites will take on a whole new meaning.
We could have a ‘push’ technology from online dating sites which will work more effectively when we are in a more relaxed mode. What this means is that the dating website can recognize when a request is made for the online services from your living room. This will trigger special code for the website to deliver very custom specific information direct to your TV screen. This may include recent online profiles which you can check from time to time. Essentially new ‘apps’ will be available for your smart TV in much the same way as we have apps for smart phones.
Expect in a few years to have more intelligence built into the devices, so when we are chatting with our date on the smartphone, we can follow this conversation to our TV and have all our history saved in one central location such as the cloud. Virtual dating applications will open up many possibilities to make online dating more interesting and engaging. The online singles today are more active than ever in utilizing the power of the devices connected to the internet. With this in mind, there will be a far greater reach for singles to explore diverse areas and to meet potentially like-minded singles all through online virtual dating.
