I Can’t Believe I’m 30 And Never Had A Real Date

I have to make a confession (one that is known by so few). Although I've hung out with a few guys, I have never had a real date. It seems a little weird to say that I am 30 and have never had a real date, but I know I can't be the only woman who this describes. It just boggles my mind, for whatever reason, this can occur to no fault of the woman. Let me explain. I am a reasonably intelligent, educated, passionate woman. I am a world traveler, who enjoys laughing, adventure, and loving life. Okay, so I am picky--very picky, with high expectations and standards. I have friends who want me to lower my standards, but to me that says they don't think I deserve what I think I deserve. I refuse to settle. I don't believe in doing it, and I have known too many people who have done it in various as...

This Ain’t Love At All

These 3 words can mean so much to many people. They can make the heart flutter and cause a person to smile without know it. The 3 words that can change a life is "I love you". Men and women say this to each other often when in a relationship. They help us to recall times when we felt love and knew we were loved. Those special moments like being propose to or hearing them for the first time from someone you really care about. Nothing else can really compare to that. Yet sadly what so many experience is not really love at all. It is some that is here today and gone tomorrow. Words spoken in a time of passion to get what one wants but leaves when the morning comes. One person may feel like this love is real while the other person only wants what saying I love you will give them right now. Lov...

Really? The Wacky World Of Meeting Women On The Internet

I rejoined Match.com a few days ago. I've belonged to Match 4-5 times since the early 2000's. I rejoined because they have the largest database of potential partners. Before I came back to Match, I was on a couple of smaller "niche" dating sites, but they just didn't have enough members to be effective in what is essentially a numbers game. At this point, I've recently only "dated" one person I've met on a dating site. I was more interested in her than she was in me, and we wound up friends, but she woke me up, lightly cracking me open to realize how much I want a partner in my life. But since I can't yet speak to the dating part on internet dating this time around, this article is going to focus on meeting people. It will also be focused on a man's perspective but I hope it will be useful...

What To Do With A Woman Who Has Commitment Phobia

A woman with commitment phobia always feels insecure and vulnerable when it comes to marriage. She wants to postpone the decision; is often confused and does not know how to get out of the relationship. Unlike men, women with commitment phobia don't go around hunting for men. They develop natural relationships; relationships in which they believe but which they are not willing to sustain. In the process they not only hurt men but also hurt themselves. They find it very difficult to get out of such relationships. There is a feeling of guilt; sometimes even of remorse. But these feelings are overpowered by a strong feeling of fear. There is a great reluctance to approach the subject of marriage. At the same time, there is despair too. They don't want to let go the man who has brought such ha...
