			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have decided you want something of a more personal relationship with someone you&#8217;ve met and they give you a contact number try ringing it. If you can never get hold of them be very wary, even if they give you a seemingly reasonable excuse. If you have to page or text them so they ring you back this is a real warning sign when considering your online dating safety. Presumably they have something to hide.</p>
<p>If you seem to be the only half of the relationship that is making the effort to progress your relationship to the next step you should step back and take a good look at exactly what they are saying. Asking for financial help or other kinds of help should be a sure fire online dating safety warning sign no matter how polite, sweet and charming they are. An online relationship has in no way progressed to the level where they should be asking you for money.</p>
<p>While it&#8217;s true that you should take before you give out your personal details once you decide that&#8217;s the level you want to move to, it should be a two-sided thing. If the person you are talking to is entirely unwilling to give out personal details and you&#8217;re sure that you&#8217;ve had long enough to get to know each other then their lack of commitment in wanting to meet you might indicate a secret.</p>
<p>Insecurity and a need to get married are ore common that you might think in both men and women and if either of these factors crop up on a regular basis then you need to decide whether this is something you can cope with and whether you can stand back it make the relationship go slower. If not, then you are being pressurised into moving your relationship further forward than you want to. Our final online dating safety warning sign is to avoid embarrassment and upset. Online dating sites are sometimes frequented by people looking for something more than a quick chat, and might be looking for someone to indulge in their requirements with them. Make sure right from the start that this isn&#8217;t the case.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are a single woman who is either looking for someone new to spend time with or you are already involved with a man, you may be wondering how to get and keep his attention. There are some simple ways for women to attract men and employing one or all will give you amazing results.</p>
<p>One of the best ways for women to attract men is to be witty. Men love a woman who has fun and has a vibrant outlook on the world. When you are spending time either talking to someone you&#8217;ve just met or chatting with your boyfriend, keep a humorous tone to the conversation. This doesn&#8217;t mean that you should tease him endlessly. Also, never use self deprecating humor to get him to smile. Instead keep the conversation light and fun at times. He&#8217;ll appreciate the clever side to your personality and men really enjoy women who can make them smile.</p>
<p>Being honest is a huge turn on to a man. Men like women who are genuine. This means telling it like it is. If he asks what you do for a living and you are tempted to spice it up by making it sound better than it is, he may see through the charade. Be upfront and answer all his questions truthfully. You never know when a chance meeting can turn into a potential long term love affair. You want to be who you really are from the get go. Men can tell when a woman is embellishing her life to impress them.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t overdress. One of the mistakes that many women make is to wear provocative clothing because they think men will chase them. Men judge who you are as a person by what you wear. Don&#8217;t be too heavy with the make up and just a light touch of perfume is always right. You want to give him the impression that you value yourself and that you aren&#8217;t defined by what&#8217;s spilling out of your clothes. Showing less is always the best thing to do.</p>
<p>Never compare yourself to other women. One of the best ways for women to attract men is to show they aren&#8217;t intimated by other women. If you really feel the need to react when a man looks the way of another girl, make a positive comment about her. If you say something nice about her purse, shoes or clothing he&#8217;ll instantly think you&#8217;re not the jealous type. Men love women who exude tons of self confidence.</p>
<p>Another of the effective ways for women to attract men is to stay involved in their own lives. The minute you become always available to a man, you start to be boring. Never give up your own interests to fit in with those of a man you are involved with. Men love a woman who has a full and rich life. You&#8217;ll always be interesting to him if you don&#8217;t spend all your time fawning over him. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes to <a HREF="http://www.midate.com/">dating advice</a>, it is amazing what people fall for when they are desperate. Anyone who has looked at all of the scams on the Internet offering guaranteed success in business for just a small investment probably knows exactly what I&#8217;m talking about. People get crazy about money, and they do stupid things when they should know better.</p>
<p>As insane as people get over money, however, they get even crazier over romance. People get dating advice from anyone. People get <a HREF="http://www.datingzip.com/">dating tips</a> from psychics, from friends who have had little relationship success, and from so-called experts with no professional credentials. From Dr. Phil to the palm reader down at the county fair, the world of dating advice is filled with quacks. Although sometimes these people give good advice on dating, you are always taking a risk when you listen to them. Is it worth the risk?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are of a certain generation, you may remember hearing it upon its initial release or you could have heard it recently on some oldies radio station. By it, I mean the old song that goes, &#8220;Everybody plays the fools sometimes. There is no exception to the rule.&#8221;</p>
<p>There are many circumstances where playing the fool happens to the best of us. One of those circumstances where you can feel particularly vulnerable is in a dating relationship. You want to please the other person so in turn they will like you that much more. This includes getting into situations that you do not feel comfortable. So how do you avoid these situations? By using one word that has more power than we give it credit for having. No.</p>
<p>It is hard to put forth a good &#8220;no&#8221; and stand by it. For whatever reason, it makes many of us uncomfortable. If your date wants to go to a nightclub that you detest, you may initially say no but wind up going anyway. Why is that? Because the chances are that you wavered and in so doing your date picked up on it. From there, it was easy for them to wear down your resistance. Did you have a good time at the club? Not even a little bit.</p>
<p>In the book, The Artist Way written by Julie Cameron there is a quote which states, &#8220;Saying no is the ultimate self care.&#8221; Her point is not to let yourself get caught in poor me situations. This means doing something the other person may want but it is guaranteed to leave you feeling miserable.</p>
<p>So how do you stick by that no and mean it?</p>
<p>1. The Voice</p>
<p>A wavering no is a cautious yes in disguise. You do not have to get angry about it but make sure your tone is firm and consistent. The consistent part is especially important during the follow up. The chances are if the other person is determined to get their way then one no will not get the job done, so be ready.</p>
<p>2. The Reasons</p>
<p>If you do not want to go to that nightclub then offer your date valid reasons why and stick to them. Saying you do not want to go because you do not want to go is not a good answer. If however you put forward legitimate explanations, it tells your date you are serious. Yes they may try to negotiate your reasons for answering no. Just stand by those reasons and pretty soon your date will realize trying to convince you is a lost cause.</p>
<p>3. No Apology</p>
<p>If you give valid reasons with a firm tone and then turn around and apologize, you are asking for trouble. Your date may sense that you are feeling guilty about your answer and start the whole process over again; figuring this time they will definitely wear you down and get you to say yes. Even if you feel you must apologize for the circumstances, never apologize for your answer. The word &#8220;no&#8221; is a tough one. Sticking to it can be even tougher especially if you really like the person you are dating. But giving in to the other person all the time no matter what the relationship is not healthy. That is why it is important when you do say no to be firm, offer valid reasons why and make no apology for your answer. If the other person likes and respects you, they will realize that saying no is sometimes in the best interest of both parties.</p>
