No Space for Money in Your Love Life
Wednesday, May 30th, 2012
We live in a male dominated society where there is a common belief that a husband’s job is to earn money and take care of financial needs of the family and the wife will take care of the home and raise children. But, nowadays we see that in many urban families both the husband and wife are working to meet the demand of their expensive lifestyles. This is fine until the husband earns more or equal to the family and household outgoings however, when the wife starts earning greater than husband this becomes a matter of concern and at times can be the reason of a relationship breaker.
So if you are an independent single women and looking for a potential partner then there are top THREE tips that you should not overlook:
1. Know what you want
The key to successful relationships is to know what you want from that relationship. Note down what are those 5 qualities you want in your future partner. One of them would definitely be, does equal or greater earning power of my partner matter to me? Or shall I be comfortable dating someone who makes less money than me but beautiful at heart?
2. Do not set unrealistic expectations
You can afford a luxurious car, a big apartment and even an exotic vacation with your friend and even shop from your favorite expensive branded store. If you think a guy who was not afford of all this will not make you happy can keep you single more than you want to. You need to see the individuality rather looking at the materialistic aspects of life.
3. Understand the level of maturity
Dating a woman who has greater career aspirations than a man in not wrong but, if you keep flaunting this it will make the man feel less worthy. If you do not to know the level of maturity of men you are dating, avoid going to too many expensive restaurants, buying expensive gifts rather let him pay for a weekend movie ticket or allow him to plan an outing and appreciate his efforts from the heart.

Think of Online Dating Sites as a Friend to Get Amazing Results
Monday, May 28th, 2012
The definition of a friend is someone who knows you very well and with whom you share a bond of mutual understanding and affection exclusive of sexual and family relationship. The word friendship can also be defined as a strong bond between two people regardless of gender. This is the subject of study that comes under sociology.
However, the definition of friend and friendship is getting redefined by social networking giant (as of now) Facebook as they have invented the concept of friend to friend when it comes to creating the social group between friends. Friend is someone who increases your happy moments and cuts down on your sorrows.
Similarly singles looking for a date, romantic partner or a soul mate in online dating sites should create a bond with these sites as friends, keep in touch with these online dating sites as much as you do with your friend. The more time you spend with your friend the more you come to know each other and understand the best time to reach out to your friend and to spend quality time together. This applies to online dating sites as well where you need to keep in touch with those sites and spend quality time finding the match for yourself and even try to get help and advice from the dating blog very similar to a real-life friend.
Comment on this article and tell us what you consider would be other areas you can relate your friend to online dating sites.

Romanticism in a world of uncertain love
Wednesday, May 9th, 2012
Romanticism today has a whole new meaning today and many would apply the word not just to your sweetheart or lover but in other areas too. If one looked up the definition of romanticism in Google, the word refers to the movement in the late 18th and early 19th century where there was an artistic and intellectual movement coupled with individual expression and creativity.
One would consider being romantic would be a expression of heightened sense of feeling as a result of being in the presence of a lover or a date. Effectively, this elevated feeling in oneself maybe a consequence of an individual who has unlocked the inner feelings of love (please see the previous blog post ‘The sordid truth…’). However, unlike love, romanticism is likely a consequence of the deeper feelings that comes from the elated feeling of love within.

Romanticism is usually centered around nature and the effect this can have upon us. For example, the creativity and wonderment of science and its place in witnessing the grander visions of everything around us. Many of the romanticist of the last century have produced great works of art and literature. Next time you find yourself with a heightened sense of romanticism, it could be that you are not just in love but in a phase where you also have a high capacity to be very creative.

Gender Differences - Understanding the dual nature of reactivity & proactivity - Part 1
Thursday, May 3rd, 2012
I was fortunate enough to witness two good friends of mine who were both exceptionally extroverted locked in a conversation. There are very good reasons why people sometimes use the term ‘opposites attract’ and here was a perfect example of this. Both of my friends were passionate about making their voices heard and their conversation ended up just being that with absolutely no dialogue at one point in time. It was very funny and somewhat entertaining to watch. Mind you, I wasn’t laughing at them, I was simply observing the outcome of the conversation which seemed to lead nowhere.
It occurred to me that in much the same way that men vs men can get locked in a conversation, there must be subtle differences in the way we converse with say men vs women or women vs women. Men usually hear stories about how women find it so natural to talk to each other with ease and many would go onto to converse for hours without even thinking. With the men vs women conversation and in particular when they are in a relationship the art of communicating takes on a whole new meaning. I sense that in that type of relationship one could pursue a communication that is tailored to prolong or forge the relationship rather than upset it.
In a courtship relationship between men and women, both have an interest at the outset of how the relationship will unfold and this triggers in each how to best communicate. Naturally there are agendas and self-interested pursuits within each individual and this will directly have a bearing on the outcome of the relationship and therefore the communication aspects too. It maybe the reason why couples are initially very aloof when they first start dating and it’s only after time that they become comfortable with each other.
