10 Rules Of Texting For Dating Singles

10 Texting Rules For Dating Singles - Texting Guidelines and Dating Etiquette. I've found that texting is generally seen as a nuisance for people over the age of 40. For one thing, most of us have fingers that are NOT bony. Those little tiny buttons on the cell phones are ridiculously small.  Plus, many of us have to find our reading glasses so we can even SEE the damn keyboard anyway! Women have the extra challenge of long and/or fake fingernails. Glamourous, sexy, make your hands look great. However, they have absolutely no traction on those little tiny plastic buttons on a cell phone keypad. So then why is there so much hesitation when it comes to picking up the phone? Has texting become the newest addition to the list of "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em?" I believe the growing prefer...

Could A DNA Tests Find Your Soulmate?

The One: could DNA tests find our soulmate? We study sex and sexuality — and think the idea is ridiculous The Netflix drama The One centres around a geneticist who invents a new matchmaking service. It uses DNA to help people find their romantic and sexual match: their “one”.“A single strand of hair is all it takes to be matched with the one person you are genetically guaranteed to fall in love with”, says Dr Rebecca Webb (Hannah Ware). “The moment you meet your match, your one true love, nothing will ever be the same again.” The One asks what would happen if we could use a DNA database to match “soulmates”. More importantly, it assumes if such technology existed it would be a wholly commercial enterprise — imagining a not-to-distant future where tech (and tech giants) mediate dating, sex...

How To Survive The End Of A Friendship

Breakups happen to friends, too. Here’s how to find closure, while preserving your heart and dignity. As life gets busier due to career, family, and other demands, friendships may seem inessential. However, good friendships are crucial to one’s well-being because they offer a wealth of benefits—from reducing stress to lowering blood pressure. Ultimately, they can help us live longer lives. Negative friendships also impact heart health. But even if we’re aware of unhealthy friendships in our lives, it can be difficult to know when and how to let go. Theories on romantic breakups, including how to end a bad relationship on good terms, saturate pop culture. And while a friendship breakup can be just as devastating, we seldom give it the same consideration. In an age of friendship ghos...

Dating Over Zoom? Don’t Be Surprised If Those Online Sparks Fizzle In Person

Remember the days of dipping your toes into the dating pool during those stay-at-home days, it was like swimming in a version of Netflix’s reality series “Love is Blind.” In the show, contestants must get engaged before ever actually meeting one another in person. And while a lockdown engagement might be a bit extreme, it’s entirely possible that two people have grown to really like one another over the previous weeks and months. Maybe it started with a match on a dating app, followed by flirting over text. Then came regularly scheduled Zoom dates. Perhaps they’ve even started envisioning a future together. Now, as states have relaxed restrictions, some may have decided on taking the next step: an in-person rendezvous. What are the chances that their online connection will lead to true lov...

Do Some Peoples’ Profiles Reveal What Kind Of Person They Attract?

If one was to go out into the world with the intention of finding another person to be with, it is going to be important for them to come across in the right way. Now, this is not to say that there is only going to be one way for them to behave. For one thing, it can be necessary for them to put a certain amount of effort into their appearance before they go out, and then for them to be confident when they are out. Along with this, they can decide if they will come across in a humorous manner or as being laid back, for instance. Different Requirements What this comes down to is that although there will be certain things that one will need to do, there are going to be other things that are not as essential. When it comes to the latter, it can all depend on the kind of person they want to...

When You’re Back On The Dating Scene

With so many relationships breaking down and such a high percentage of marriages ending in divorce it's no wonder that many of us will, at some point, end up back on the dating scene. We may be older and wiser, a little battered and bruised, but often, once we're ready to date again, thinking about rejoining the fray, we'll be harboring the fantasy of meeting someone special. Back on the dating scene means being optimistic, hopeful and looking forward to finding love again. What do we need to consider when we're back on the dating scene? - Our previous relationship experiences may have scarred our view and made us wary of what might go wrong. We may be keen to meet someone new but are nervous of trusting again. Cynicism of others' motives and being uncertain of our own instincts after...

To Trust Or Not To Trust And Why

I always find it interesting to watch politicians who attack their opponents and then, when they drop out of the race because of lack of support, back the person who they have been trashing. It is easy to attack others and make promises when you are hoping that others will vote for you! But the process doesn't always seem to be honorable. It is easy to listen to a charming individual who seems to have a good line but keep in mind the old expression that states: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is". To trust means that you have confidence that someone or something is reliable and honest. You can trust the sun to rise each day. But how do you know who you can trust? There are several markers that will help you to decide if you should trust someone: They have a good trac...
