The lingering gaze, the deep look makes the heart flutter and is the first step towards flirting. He/she looks at you and lengthens the eye contact, the heart begins to race. The heart pumps harder and oxygenated blood travels to all the organs and muscles of the body thereby reducing stress and providing nourishment.

After holding the gaze the next action is for you to walk up to him/her and while talking you casually touch. The breathing becomes more rapid. The moment you realize this, you automatically take deep breaths to calm yourself before you approach to speak. The deep breathing exercise oxygenates the blood which is also pumped to the brains by the heart thereby calming the brain activity that helps you to think more clearly.
Any activity that gets the heart rate up, increases blood circulation throughout the body is healthy and beneficial. All muscles need exercise that includes the heart muscles too. Regular flirting is a wonderful workout for the heart muscles to keep it in shape and healthy with additional benefit of the feel good factor. Flirt your way to a healthy heart today!

Dating Interracial Singles - 7 Things to Avoid Saying
Tuesday, January 15th, 2013
The world is shrinking as people are moving out from their own countries to other countries in pursuit of work or a better life. Each person is brought up in a different manner as per their religion, culture and tradition. Interracial dating has it own charm and excitement. The fascination for the other person is much higher as curiosity about the other person’s race, traditions and culture is always exciting and intriguing. When dating, bear in mind not to hurt or upset the other person unknowingly by mentioning something that is against their religion or culture. Allow them to talk about themselves since they will have a lot to say about the differences in cultures and you won’t step the line.
Dating Interracial Singles - 7 Things to Avoid Saying
Seven things to avoid saying when you choose an interracial date:
1. Don’t assume you know each others race, cultures and ethnic makeup
2. Don’t pretend to be culturally enlightened
3. Guys never make any sexual remark or suggestion. Every culture and religion holds sex in a different light. It may surely be on your mind but restrain yourself from talking about this
4. Complimenting a woman is dicey. Though every woman loves to hear how beautiful or attractive she is, it also may convey that you are interested only in her looks which puts you in the unworthy and unsophisticated category
5. Hey ladies, talk less about your self and ask more about him. It’s ridiculous but true that men will think you are intelligent
6. There is no way to tell your companion that your family will not approve of this relationship. Don’t ask each other out if the cultural rift is too large to overcome. Think for yourself and understand the repercussions.
7. Don’t discuss marriage, children or exes on first few dates and don’t tell lies

Your body stature is important to your well being
Wednesday, January 9th, 2013
Why is body stature important to one’s welfare you may very well ask?
A great comedian Peter Sellers once said that the portrayal of characters in his movies would always start from the ‘walk’. This would imply that one’s stature may tell a lot about one’s personality. I have my own ideas regarding this and will explain the importance of why it’s important to have a good stature.
If you observe people carefully, their walk and the way they stand can say a lot about the type of person he/she is. It can effectively describe the persons demure and whether they are soft or aggressive in personality. We can see how Peter Sellers used the walk to define his characters that he would play. If you were sad, the walk would reflect this and you will likely take small and slower steps with a crouched stature. If you were happy, the same body would spring to life and you will likely stand strong in stature with quick, swift movements of your body.
One point to bear in mind when you read self-help books is that trying to change yourself for the better may not be all that effective. Without the genuine interest to change or the desire for the new you, then it would turn into failure. Your body will reflect this and it will be something that others will be able to detect and appear a little bit fake. Your spoken thoughts and words will be in conflict with the movements of your body. This is probably where body language have been effectively used by people to read people’s inner thoughts outside of what they say or do.
To better yourself in both mind and body, you should use your body as a barometer. If you wanted to improve a particular trait in yourself, look to your body movement, posture and stature and see if it has made any difference. You will probably need to work a bit harder or change certain aspects of your training to harmonize and bring balance to the two. Next time, you are looking to self-improve, look at your body and stature and see what this is telling you.

Ideas for getting your personality across in online dating - YouTube Video
Sunday, January 6th, 2013
Getting your personality across from your online dating profile can be a challenging task. Your photos and description may give you a good idea of what your personality is like but nothing can beat a video.
In the early 80s video dating was a huge phenomenon and many dating companies would take video interviews of people to add to their large portfolio list. They would show other members potential dates including their video interview for a cost. This continued for a while and was hugely popular but it quickly faded as quickly as it came. There were a number of reasons for this and this included the length of time it would take to sit through the videos. The other main reason for its demise was due to the matchmaking company not being able to select the right people for each other. Matchmaking is one of the hardest things to do because as explained in previous blog compatibility figures in online dating sites, it is very difficult to match people together because of the complex nature of human beings.
One important aspect that video dating was missing was conveying the personality of the individual in it’s own comfortable setting. There is something to be said that a picture is like a thousand words and the same can be said for videos. However the essential missing point is what the picture or video shows to the viewer. Here, we will show you how to create the perfect video that is sure to bring out the best in your personality. If you reflect back to the time when you had the most fun, you would surely mention an activity or fun thing that you have always loved and enjoyed doing. This should be the starting point of your personality video that you are going to make and put onto your dating profile.
Firstly, pick out one of your favorite topics that you can talk about and demonstrate without too much trouble. If you don’t have someone to record, then put your digital camera on a tripod and record your video this way. It’s much simpler than you think. Make sure there is sufficient light for the video and that its easy for viewers to see without squinting. Run a few tests before doing the actual video or do several videos and edit them online using the popular Microsoft video editing tool. The video doesn’t have to be aimed at your face or the whole body, it can point to the table where you are doing some activity. The important thing is that your voice is clearly heard or you are providing the right instructions in the video overlay. Add music to the video to make it interesting but this is optional.

The next part of the task is to upload your video and adding a link to your dating profile. Uploading a video to YouTube is a simple task. Once the video has been finalized which will be usually in mp4 format, you can simply go to YouTube.com, setup an account if you have none and you will be ready to upload your video. Give it a title and short description and you are done. Once you have uploaded you will have access to a shared link (below the video) which you copy and and paste into your dating profile. On the dating profile of your dating site, go to the section where you can describe more about yourself or hobbies and add a brief description along with the link to the YouTube video.
Thats it! You are now a unique member which will make your dating profile stand out from the crowd and will have curious members opening up your video. Don’t worry about creating the perfect video since you are not running for the Oscars, you are just trying to convey the best in your personality through this homemade video. This is a valuable piece of information which static online dating profiles cannot do just by itself.
