1. Volunteer Organizations

3. Whatever else you are passionate about

Personally, if you’re meant to meet a guy, you’ll meet him. But I guess it wouldn’t hurt to get on out there, right?

Anyway, go on over and read further thoughts on why these places made her list. Perhaps you’ll find reasons to give these ideas a try. Let us know if it works.

3 Places to Find Your Next Boyfriend

Women, being prone to thoughts lingering on the faerie tales we’ve read growing up, are stuck with the idea that we’ll go through life finding love in just one prince charming. We’re led to believe that there will only be one man who will capture our hearts and sweep us off our feet. But does it really happen often in real life? Do we end up with our first crush or first boyfriend? Can we honestly say we didn’t find any other man attractive?

I’m not pushing you guys to date multiple guys at one time. All I’m saying is that there’s nothing wrong if you do end up breaking up with the first guy you’ve ever said the words, “I love you”. There’s nothing wrong if you think that it’s best for you to sample the buffet before you tie the knot. What’s important is that you give dating a proper shot so you’d discover what you truly want and need in a partner. Experience is the best teacher.

So, adding a twist to the faerie tale, I implore that you kiss as much frogs as you can, if that is what it takes to find your Mr. Right. For all you know that next frog you do kiss will be the only frog you’ll be kissing for the rest of your life.

Kiss As Much Frogs As You Can

It’s a pretty straightforward question, wouldn’t you agree?

We’ve heard this question asked quite a number of times in our lifetime. Some may have readily chosen an answer and others are still quite hesitant to make that decision.

Personally, I’d choose the person whom I love and be with him. If he chooses to be with me then there’s a hope that he also made his choice to be with the person he loves, hence, both of us ending up with partners we love and who in return loves us back.

I have to admit that this won’t be true all the time, however, I hang on to the hope that love brings.

Your turn.

Who would you choose?

Tackling a Perennial Question, Who would You Choose?

Take a look:

1. He’ll treat you right. Nerds are often overlooked by foxy ladies, so when they get one, they know how good they’ve got it. He’ll never not call or toss you aside for the next fine thing that comes along.

2. You’ll never take second fiddle to his band, and he won’t cheat on you while he’s out on the road. I’m not saying all bad boys make bad boyfriends, but ladies let’s be honest. How many actually are really keepers?

3. You’ll be hitching your horse to the right carriage. Nerds make great companions because they stimulate the mind as well as the body.

4. You can dress him and he won’t get mad. Yep, what lady doesn’t like to dress her man? Nerds won’t complain, they can use the help. Mine didn’t say word one when I threw out his ugly green blazer and replaced it with something foxy.

I reckon these are good enough reasons to base her decision upon. After all, that decision is a HUGE thing. Curious? Go on and check her article, Geeks are Sexy: Why Every Girl Should Love a Nerd, to find out

Why You Need A Nerd

It’s actually not a bad idea if you think of it. What do you really need in a site to find someone you can date anyway? Isn’t it all about finding a person whom you can connect with?

I’ve got to admit that I have gone on dates with people I met through sites like these — social networking sites, I mean. I can’t say it’s 100% better than online dating sites, it’s just another alternative to finding Mr. Right.

What I like about the dates I’ve gone to are the idea that I’m not “forced” to be romantic with them right away because all of these dates are of platonic nature, er, at least, on my part and that they are guys I’ve actually interacted with and find something in common through the sites.

I guess when I tried the online dating sites, I’m pressured by the idea that the guys expect me to go into dating and the whole she-bang straight away. I’m under the impression that the expectations are solely directed toward creating a romantic relationship. I may be at fault here but, hey, these sites aren’t called online dating sites for nothing, right?

Bottomline is perhaps if you’re not comfortable with the idea of meeting dates online, social networking sites are a good option for you. At the very least you’ll be meeting new friends you can simply hang out with if you’re not in the mood for dating just yet.

What do you think?

Dating and Social Networking

I’ve been thinking about social classes the past few weeks and how it affects an individual’s choice for a mate. Some might not be willing to admit it but it’s almost as good as fact — it does have some weight to one’s decision.

Who is the average joe?

Is he someone who’s not spectacular? Is he someone who isn’t handsome or built like a god? Does he fall under the geek, nerd or dork category? Is he someone who isn’t earning enough? Or is he simply someone who isn’t part of a certain social class, which you think you belong to?

Sometimes, I wonder about how most women view themselves. Are we really superficial? Do we see ourselves higher than we ought? Are we driven by vain conceit?

Perhaps — the question we really ought to be asking is — who am I?

I reckon I’m rambling because my thoughts are still just made up of questions about this matter. I’m hoping to find some sort of sense in the end. However, I guess that’s probably why I think that an average joe IS as a good choice for a mate as the commercialised Mr. Right. I even think that they’re the bunch that has something REAL to offer to any woman.

For now, it’s best to leave you with these thoughts and a promise that I’ll come back with follow up posts on this topic. If you can let me know your own thoughts on the matter, that’d be great. Feel free to leave a comment or send me an email over at sasha [at] b5media [dot] com.

Will you date an average joe?

I guess that’s what dating is actually for — options. It creates an ideal scenario wherein you get to try out something until you find that one thing that suits you best.

However, it doesn’t always work out that way, right?

I’ve never been in a situation wherein I’m actively “seeing” several people at one time. More often than not, I always end up seeing just one person and that’s that. I’ll find out after a date or two if it’s not going to work out. So, the idea of individuals who actually can date more than one person at a given period of time is beyond me.

I guess that’s how I define multi-dating. Of course, it’s different when you have accummulated a lot of first dates over time. Even if it meant you have indeed dated more than one person, for me, it doesn’t fall under this particular practice. That occurence is actually quite normal. It’s simply — dating.

Do you approve of multi-dating? Do you think it’s healthy? Do you think it’s effective?

If you have experienced or are currently practicing it, would you mind sharing with us, so, we can understand it better?
