Summer Flings and Things - Why They’re Short But Sweet ∞

It started in our preteen years, with going away to camp for the summer. The first crushes, kisses and whats-its are stuck firmly in our heads. Usually surrounded by a soft, shimmering air of...

It’s Not the End But the Beginning of Romance ∞

One of the worst things that ever happened to women was the logic card.  We rate, we debate and we rationalize whether or not we should even bother with him.  What we’re forgetting- what we...

The Latest Dating Slang of 2009 ∞

We all love slang, and using slang to describe romance, until it gets over-killed. What was hot a year or two ago now seems so passe. Uber-uncool. If you’re jumping into the dating scene again,...

Your Appearance Is Sending Unconscious Signals ∞

It’s a well-known fact that we’re constantly sending signals to people.  Body language, gestures and phrases all come into play.  What we may not realize, though, is how our appearance plays a part in sending signals, too.  From clothing to hair and make-up, we’re telling the world where we’re at emotionally.  Knowing what you’re showing can help you understand why you’re getting the reactions you are, and how to modify yourself to being irresistible.

Starting with hair: the length of your hair can reflect your personality.  The shorter and more stylish it is, the more it tells others you’re high-maintenance, high-strung and meticulous.  It can also be a signal of insecurity because of the constant upkeep.  The most girlfriend-friendly hairstyles are mid-length, from chin to shoulders.  You take care of yourself, but don’t overdo it.  Long hair can be two different things:  either you’re attempting to recapture or play on youthfulness (which can be a sign of desperation if you’re an older woman) or that you simply don’t care.

Hair color is another readable factor.  Many women color their hair, and the choices in coloring speak volumes.  Black hair is the intentional rebel.  Brown hair is (again) the most friendly, because it’s the most common.  With warm highlights, it shows openness.  Red hair is the rarest, and will soon die out altogether.  A woman who colors her hair red is ready for a relationship and looking for attention.  Bottle blonds can come off as icy or unapproachable, and because the bleach does so much damage the ends get brittle.  Not keeping it trimmed makes a stereotypical cheapness.

The clothing we wear is also a reflection, not just in the style but in the color choices.  Here are the most common:

• Red. Again, signaling that you’re ready for a relationship or looking for some excitement. It’s the most eye-catching color, and that’s what it’s worn for.
• Black. Either a protection mechanism or a contrast to highlight the other features (i.e. figure and face).
• Brown. While it may be natural, it’s also a natural repellent since it brings to mind dinge and dirt.
• Yellow. Happiness, sunniness and joy in general, it can also scare people away from you if it’s too bright.  Imagine someone cheerful waking you up at 5am on a Sunday.
• White. Spotlessness tells of a clean freak, someone who would insist on coasters at the dinner table.  It can also be a sign of purity or untouchable-ness.
• Purple. A free spirit wears purple, and doesn’t care who likes it or not.  Especially vivid purples.  Independent and feisty.

• Blue. It can be complementary (for example, to match or bring out blue eyes) or it can seem commonplace or general.  Blue is the most common color worn by both men and women, and it blends in.
• Monotone outfits. Wearing all of one color is the same as erecting a wall between you and the world.
• Clashing outfits. A reflection of a lack of taste or thought, or it could be a cry for attention.

Make-up is an obvious way to tell a lot about someone.  Pan-cake make-up has connections to insecurities and cheapness.  Au naturelle is a coin-toss between natural beauty and confidence or laziness.  The in-betweens are saying they take care of themselves but don’t obsess.

It might be good to know the next time you’re getting ready for a hot date exactly what unspoken subtleties you’re telling him, and vice-versa.

Stalking Doesn’t Increase Your Stock: Stalking the Wild Yeast ∞

Aren’t you really tired- exhausted, even- by your stalker?  How in the h-e-double-hockey stick do  they think not leaving you alone will make them attractive?  Seriously?  The tweets, the texts, the emails, the stopping by the flat randomly to say hello and then screaming at the neighbors to let them in are all…super-bad.  When a person likes someone, the best way to go about attracting them  is not scaring them silly. Just an idea.

It was interesting to find out that out of twelve women, at least one will be stalked in her life.  And for you men out there, you might be interested to find out one out of forty-five are going to be stalked. By other men. You’d envision Bunny Boilers, but you’re getting Harry Hares instead. Oh, yes, please.  Isn’t it nice to know someone finds you yummy?

At least there is an answer and a solution for those of us that aren’t fans of Fatal Attraction- we can, in the States, go to the law and win.  Many states now have laws against stalking that include emails and texting.  In criminal language, it’s called e-trailing and textual harassment. You can not only make them keep a distance, but also get legal space from the mental that’s fixated on you.

It sounds like great news, but unfortunately most people try to deal with their own, cute and personally-amplified stalkers on their own.  Many times, it ends up with them (the stalkers) hurting their ideal.  Need a simple example?  John Lennon.  Look at the facts, and then apply them to your less-than-famous life.  You’re more than likely in trouble if you’re being stalked.

Leaving it be and hoping it- they- will quietly go away is like hoping that foul-smelling gangrene in your leg will improve if you keep thinking positively.  Sensitivity is great.  Trying not to hurt someone’s feelings is great.  Modifying your behavior, your life and letting your partner, friends and family possibly become the target of harms’ way is cowardice.

Taking some sort of action is not only commendable, but necessary.  Being aware and active puts the driver’s seat back where you want to drive, and takes their misguided power away.  Don’t wait for ages- just to let you know, the typical stalker goes manic for roughly 1.2 years.  Patience is an opiate for these people.  You don’t have to put your life on pause, or change your job- you simply have to take care of that particular person.  Now.

Keep in mind that stalking is a two-way street if you do nothing:  they devote their free time, their lives, to you.  In turn, you have devotion of avoiding, obsessing on what they might do and no real interaction with others- because they become exactly what they hoped for.  Your sole focus.

Think about your stalker the same way you would approach an illness:  prevention prevents having to try (and possibly failing) at treatment.  Do you really want to devote one year of your life to someone who clearly doesn’t respect you enough to respect your boundaries?  Or your taste?  Which in a nutshell, is your you.

Find a stalking forum, speak to authorities, get some help from outside sources and get rid of them, already.  It’s time to subtract them from your lifely equation, so that you can start living again.  Unless you’re enjoying the drama.  Which in that case: good luck and godspeed.  I hope you like rabbit.

Does Twitter Help Your Relationship Or Harm It? ∞

The popularity of Twitter is twinkling some eyes, while tweaking anger in others.  If you don’t Twitter, you’re painfully uncool- just take a look at the Twitterati.  Twitter can be addictive, fun and give you connections.  But can it affect your relationship?  The good and bad news for romance:  the Twitter singles scene is the new hot spot and already makes claims on success rates.  On the other hand, with Twitter there’s a new, faster way to be cheated on by your tweetheart.

Naysayers call it ‘blogging on amphetamines,’ but there are some benefits.  Staying in touch with and meeting people seems to rank highest on the list.  In other words, you’re never alone nor are you lonely.  While a lot of social sites are good for daily contact, Twitter is minute-by-minute.  For relationships, it’s a way to spend consistent time with your love when you’re apart.  With a new romance, it’s similar to speed dating, but sped up.  In business, those that Twitter have an edge on those who don’t.  Bloggers report an increase in visits, since the Twitter messages are so short,  leaving readers curious for more information.

There are many advocates for Twitter, but the drawbacks are plenty.  Yes, you might actually stay in touch with your family on a more regular basis, but you can also find yourself suffering from cravings or depression if no one contacts you.  Twitter addiction could destroy your relationship.  Look at Jen Aniston and Jon Mayer.  How romantic, going on a date with someone who’s describing their feelings to the world, instead of telling the person across from them.  That lack of personal connection increases the chances of a break-up.

How is this affecting communication?  Compiling all of your thoughts into 140 symbols, every time you think, is good for self-expression.  Sacrificing your realities, however, into sound-bytes isn’t.  As if we weren’t dumbed down enough by abbreviations and lack of real contact, we have less space and time.  There’s also the fact that social networking sites were already hotbeds for opening the cheating door.  Twitter doubles the speed, doubles the fun.  It allows for a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it transgression.  And don’t forget that the details can be publicized after, to entire communities of people.  Quadrupled humiliation in a fraction of a moment.

Twitter might be the little black dress of gadgetry at the moment, but it won’t be long before someone comes up with even shorter, faster communication.  Perhaps one day soon it’ll be the freshest, hottest trend to just send electronic grunts, reverting back to caveman speech.  Via technology.

Are Emotional Leeches Bleeding You Dry? ∞

There are so many terms for ‘bad people’ that influence you in such negative ways.  Emotional leeches, psychic vampires, the hystericals and drama queens (a.k.a. social vamps).  We all have them in our circumference.  Many of us have to deal with them on a daily basis.  What a lot of us don’t take into account, however, is how they can affect our moods, personalities and even our health if we give them too much sway.  Our guilt plays a gruesome game between our conscience and our own needs- usually with guilt getting a leg up, over and under our skin.

It’s actually got a psychological term that’s been scientifically proven:  emotional contagion.  Think back through the years to all of those you’ve known that were needy, clingy, continuously vicious and enraged, the people that once you left them you felt absolutely drained.  You were in a good mood, and it can take less than minutes for a ‘negative’ personality to wipe that joy slate clean.  They might have even left you feeling downright surly.  Neuroscience says that deeply unhappy people infect others, because we are subconscious mirrors to those around us.  Spending a lot of time with certain people, we pick up their gestures, their phrases and eventually their behavior.  We’re unconscious mimics- or unconscious hosts.  Identify the types:

• Emotional Leeches: these are the people that are always in need, always come to you for advice, phone you up, and never solve their problems.  They feed off of your sympathy and kindness, coming back for more.  In extreme cases, they may even go the serial liar path just to have a constant influx of badness.  They can be friends, co-workers or family.  The only thing that matters:  they’re sucking the glee out of you, walking away feeling ’so much better.’

• Psychic Vampires: a sub-let to leeches, they’re more specified and professional.  They have, dunno, special needs?  These are people who need to start arguments, or flirt outrageously, or those that kill everyone with kindness and then lap up the guilt.  They only feel satisfied if they get the ‘required’ response.  They walk away from the encounter with relief, while you’re left reacting.

• Drama Queens: they can’t exist without an audience.  They can be awkward, embarrassing, bullying, over-running the conversation to be ‘me, me, me’ focused and are pretty obnoxious. Part of the reason they become part of our lives is that initially they can be fun. Entertaining, even, if we feel a little bored.  Unfortunately, they never let up.  They’re insensitive to anyone’s needs, and tend to throw tantrums if they’re even mildly not paid attention to.

• The Hystericals: an off-shoot of drama queens.  Hystericals notch it up 2 decibels.  Ranting, raving, screaming, crying at the drop of a hat, inappropriate laughter that rings hours after a meeting.  It’s always the end of the world for these people.

There is good news, though- if you attract them, it means you’re generally happy and stable.  Getting rid of them is tough on guilt-trips but you have to stay strong.  Limit contact, if you can’t sever it completely.  They’ll keep trying to come back.  Don’t waver.  Just remember:  happiness is the left side of the brain and it’s logical.  Anger, resentment or depression are all right-siders, and they’re irrational.  Cleansing yourself of external negativity means you’re in the right frame of mind, even if your head’s a southpaw.

10 Date-Savers Every Woman Should Have in Their Bag ∞

Doing the dating scene.  There are so many different aspects to it: the right clothes, the right lines and flirtation devices, getting a first date- and then going on it.  A lot of things can happen on that first date (or second, or third) and they can catch you off-guard, or even put you in a face-reddening situation with the man of your dreams- turning it into the last date you two will ever have.  There are some essential items every woman should bring along with her on a date.  A kind of dating First-Aid, if you will:

1. Cash Card/Bank Card

A cash card/bank card that’s actually got funds available.  Anything can happen, and cash is one of the best ways to get out of bad situations.  You might need an emergency taxi ride. Or your date might come up embarrassingly short.  Whether your date is going well or badly, anything can happen.  It literally pays to be prepared.

2. Mobile/Cell

There’s the chance you might need to get out of your date, for an ‘emergency,’ if you’re on a nightmare date.  Be tactful with it- put it on vibrate, don’t reply to texts from your friends during a conversation.

3. Lip-goo/Gloss/lipstick/chap stick

Your lips are one of your most sell-able assets you have on a date, and where men’s eyes linger.  There’s nothing worse than having it wear-off halfway, or get smudged across your chin- which will have him staring at you for all of the wrong reasons.

4. Mini-perfume

Perfume can fade.  You don’t want to smell like the dinner you’ve just both eaten, make a discreet visit to the Ladies and refresh.  Don’t bathe in it- some people have allergies.  It isn’t romantic watching your date sneeze every 5 seconds.

5. Eye-liner/eye-shadow

Make-up bleeds, runs, drips.  Raccoon eyes are sexy on the runway (depending on the fashion), but not on a date.  If you’ve got a pimple, bring your cover-stick to do touch-ups throughout the night.

6. Pony-tail holder/clip

If you’re out together for a long evening, it’s useful to be able to not only let your hair down but put it up.  This is especially true for those nights out dancing, or activity dates.

7. Light Sweater

For all seasons (winter being the exception), the weather can change instantly.  Having something along with you- just in case- helps not distract him from your beauty to your goosebumps or shirt-bumps.

8. Chewing Gum/mints

Eating, drinking coffee, drinking- all of these can leave a nasty residue in your mouth- you don’t want to taste like regurgitated food.  Don’t leave the gum for the last moment, using it continually through the night makes you more kissable.

9. Clean Undies

This is for more advanced dates, clearly.  But as our mothers always told us, you can never be too careful.  There’s the added plus of wearing comfortable undies for the date and swapping for sexy ones towards the end of the evening.

10. Condoms

Whatever your birth control preferences, condoms are a dating staple.  Having more than one handy (you really never do know where the night will take you) gives you the relief of not running around town looking for an open mini-mart.

It’s fun dating and (possibly) mating.  With these few essentials to carry with you on your date, you’ll be prepared for everything and anything.

Comparison Dating: 7 Countries in 7 Years ∞

I feel the need to preface this with:  dating does not necessarily mean ’sexual relations.’  It could, but it’s not a guarantee.  I don’t like to kiss and tell.  I’ve dated several men from several different countries, and for those of you considering dating someone foreign and wondering what you could expect, here are my impressions:

Americans

Let me start out by taking a breather.  Seriously.  U.S. men smell so good.  It’s part of the hygiene protocol- they’re either clean-shaven or trimmed facially, they dress to impress- in other words, they actually think about presentation to the opposite sex.  They also flirt well, just enough but not too much to be creepy.  Usually.  The downside:  they tend to over-analyze and are cocky.

Australians

Australians are the coolest cats.  Maybe it has something to do with living in imminent danger of the 40,000 poisonous creatures in a stones’ throw, but they’re virtually un-ruffle-able.  They tend to be fit, have a dry sense of humor and are blunt.  Blunt in a relaxed, no worries, mate, kind of way.  They’re pretty open about libidos, which is refreshing.  The only negs are they can be too easy-going and not into a commitment.

Chileans

It’s probably unfair, as I’ve only dated one.  But he was:  hot, sexy, sensual and dressed up as a clown in his free time.  No, really.  A clown.  A female clown, at that.  He’s probably one of the sexiest men I’ve met- excepting queer hobbies- and had great qualities.  Confident, undemanding, yet sentimental and passionate.  And I’ll bet he was even sexy as a woman.

Czechs

Czech men are…not the most hygienic bachelors in the bunch.  There’s always a little jaw-scruff, a bit of a paunch.  They’re this strange dynamic of manly man meets child.  They’re quite shy, afraid of doing or saying the wrong thing and avoid conflict at all costs.  They spend most of their time with their friends in the pub, and many up-to-28-year-olds still live with mommy.

English

The English may have hot water bottles to keep them company in bed, but they also have a cracking wit and simmering sensuality hidden beneath the politesse.  Ignoring the hooligan phenomena, some English men have difficulty in expressing depth of feeling.  “I want to ravish you senseless!” becomes “Erm, it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing, you and I.”

French

Oooh la la.  Getting beyond the twitter-pations of that yummy accent, there’s the additional Gallic gallantry to enjoy.  No chair goes un-pulled, no door unopened, no smoldering glance left un-lingered.  Add to that a nice bottle of red and a 3-hour meal, it’s a short hop to infatuation.  The only negative is that French men have SASD after a romantic conquest, most times.

Romanians

Originally Roman (thus the name).  No, they aren’t all vampires.  They do have that Mediterranean atmosphere, though:  emotional zig-zag, passionate, dramatic and protective to a fault.  When they’re in love, boy are they.  The things to be aware of with Romanian men is that: they can have old-fashioned ideas about gender roles or are intolerant of any change.  Any.

That’s my (lucky?) 7.  Hopefully, it was helpful for you dating hopefuls out there.  At the very least, I hope it was mildly entertaining or enlightening.

Things That Can Turn Off the Mood of Kissing ∞

There are some awful things, which if practiced during kissing, can contaminate the precious moments for two individuals. Avoiding these things can keep the charm of kissing intact. The knowledge of these things can help you become a better kisser.

Whether it is your first kiss or you have experience doing so, you need to avoid some unworthy actions, which can contaminate the taste of your kiss. Practicing of these actions can deteriorate your relation with your partner and deprive you from the experience of a magical kiss.

Bad Breathing

You should not be kissing with bad breath. A kiss allows you to come too close to your partner, so that you can exchange your breath with each other. At this moment, a foul smell from your mouth can shatter your burning desires.

Coughing and Sneezing

If you are suffering from cold and cough, it is not the right moment to desire for a kiss. Even if you are not sick, an instantaneous sneeze or cough can put off the mood for both of you. You can simply say no to kissing, if you have the probability of facing any such situation.

Aggressive Attitude

Women love to be overpowered by men while kissing, however, an overdose of aggression can simply sour your relationship. Same holds weight for a woman kissing her boyfriend. For instance, you can bite your partner’s lips gently, but the intention should not be to crush them or chew them bitterly.

Attending Phone Calls

A phone call can degrade your passion of kissing and put an obstacle to a delightful kissing session. If you have forgotten to switch off your phone, let it make noise while you are busy tasting the flavor of a kiss. Don’t you dare pick it up and attend the call, even if it is your boss on the line.

Other things which must be avoided while kissing are farting or scratching an itching body part. Leave everything aside and get fully immersed in those fascinating moments. These treasured instants are going to be preserved in your memory and thus, they should have a good reason to be remembered.
