Meeting People From Different Cultural Backgrounds

It is always exciting for me to meet people from different cultural backgrounds. It always thrilled me to learn about the culture of people I met from the different parts of the world. In my stay here in Malaysia, I am very lucky to have stayed in a guest house that caters all migrants from other countries. I was able to meet French, Russians, Dutch, Swedish, Hindi, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, Malaysians and the like. It is very important also to learn to speak their language. Even a basic understanding of another language can help build bonds with people who speak another language. Concentrate on learning the languages and learn how to speak proficiently. You'll be able to have conversations with new friends in a language they feel most comfortable speaking. When you interact with peop...

Ladies The Best Tips To Polish Up Your Profile

Dating apps - the modern way to date. Media portrayal of "when dates go wrong" has taken isolated incidents and made them the norm, so the likelihood of meeting somebody in a bar and starting something new is now very small. People just don't trust each other. Dating apps make dating safe and easy. Scrolling through profiles and choosing whether you like them or not has never been easier. It's like shopping for your soulmate and you get an entire aisle to pick one from. All of them are different in their own way, but a lot are the same in many ways too. I have been using dating apps for over a year, have had my own degree of success. I have decided to write this, with a view to pointing out, from a man's perspective, why the women on dating apps become unattractive, despite how they may lo...

I Want The Playgirl, But They Like The “Bad Boy” Type

Dear Dr. Romance: This is something that's puzzling me for along time. I often do want the "playgirl", but they like the more of the "bad boy" type. I know for sure I want sex without strings attached, many men get this, but I simply attract women who want a boyfriend, and I don't want this! It seems as if society is saying, cause I'm a nice guy, I must be trapped into a commitment to get what I want which is sex. The women that are attracted to me are not at my standard level. I know this for a fact. They are not equal to me. They are trying to get a "catch" and something out of their league. I simply can't accept this. However I'm miserable and tormented. But I can't settle for what I don't want either. Dear Reader: Men have fantasized about two categories of women for centuries: the "g...

What’s Your Online Dating Beauty Rank? Take The Quiz!

Recently, I overheard my girlfriend Lisa leaving a babbling message on a guy's answering machine after a first date.

The long and short of it is that Lisa ended up spoiling things with this new man before they even got started. Are You Sabotaging Your Love Life? When I asked my girlfriend what that message was all about, Lisa shrugged her shoulders and said it wasn't going to last anyway. If I had been coaching Lisa, a beautiful, smart, funny, independent woman who is a great catch, I would have asked how she felt about herself before posting a profile on the dating sites. To me, she had some clear b...
