Meet Friends While You Travel
Meeting new friends is always a good idea for daters because meeting new people in general will help you find the right romantic partner for you.
If You’re Not Attracted to Someone, Should You Date Them Anyways?
As silly as it may sound, some women feel that if they date guys who are ugly, they will have less drama and be happier in their relationship.
Is Your Relationship Sustainable?
Guest post by Lisa Hann Relationships are dynamic, and no two are alike. There is no secret formula that explains a perfect connection between two people. However, there are some healthy relationship characteristics that seem to be universal. Here are ten qualities you can find in any healthy relationship.
Making Friends If You’re an Introvert
People often think of introverts as extremely shy people, but that is misleading. While shyness can occur in introverts, the true definition has to do with the energy someone gets from being alone versus being in a group. Extroverts get energized by being around people, while social activity, on the other hand, can exhaust introverts.
January Date Ideas
If the cold, dark, months of January seem to put a damper on your love life, how about a few date ideas to brighten things up?

Infidelity takes on many forms. Couples deal with everything from physical cheating to emotional affairs, but there is a betrayal of a different kind occurring also: financial infidelity. What is it and how can it affect your partnership? Here are some tips.
Being Happily Single
The holidays can hit singles hard, but some of that is brought on by other people's expectations. Have you ever felt really good about your independence and spirit and then entered a family party where everyone asked why you were still single? As if it was a bad thing that you needed to "get over."

Top 5 Romantic Holiday Destinations in the World
Guest post There are literally thousands of beautiful holiday destinations in the world to spend your vacations.
New Year’s Resolutions and Your Dating Life
The end of the year is usually the time people make resolutions for the new year. It's natural to reflect back on your year and want to improve a few areas of your personal life. If you're single you've probably got some things you'd like to do this year, so why not use the new year to get a better dating life? It's possible, you know!
Which Dating Site Is Best?
One of the most common questions I get from midlife daters is: "Which dating site is best?" The good news is that there are more dating sites than ever specifically geared toward midlifers. However, it can be difficult to decide which one to try.
Gift Ideas for Online Daters
If you have a single guy or gal on your list who is into Internet dating, here are some gift ideas sure to please. Singles sometimes feel misunderstood by their coupled up friends, so while you could buy your single friend something non-dating related, sometimes it's nice to acknowledge that side of your pal's life.
Made Some Dating Mistakes? No Worries!
If you look back on your dating life with regret over some of the people you dated, it's time to change that perspective. Making mistakes when you're in your 20s and 30s is natural, especially when it comes to your dating life.
What is Loneliness?
I've heard a lot of people talk about loneliness, especially as it relates to the singles of the world. Some people think that when you're alone, you must be lonely. But that simply isn't true.
Balancing Work Life With Dating
Some singles put off relationships and marriage until they are more secure in their careers. This can mean long hours working and less time building a social life. If this becomes routine, meeting new people is more difficult as the years go on. Rather than spending so many hours at work, learn to give your social life more time.
Ideas for Hanging With Your Friends on Black Friday
Black Friday can be one of those days you either love or dread. But I like the day because it's a good time to hang out with your pals and do something a little different. If you're into shopping, that's great, but if not, how about a cocktail party, game night, or movie marathon?

National Cliché Day
November 3rd was National Cliché Day, so I thought it might be a good time to talk about the clichés in online dating profiles.
Consider Internet Dating
Have you tried Internet dating yet? Since today is Internet Day, I thought I'd throw the thought out there. So many people tell me that they tried Internet dating once and it didn't work out. I have a hard time believing that these people really gave it a decent shot. If this sounds like you, here's what I'd like you to do today: give it another chance.
National Men Make Dinner Day
Did you know yesterday was "National Men Make Dinner" Day? I didn't, but I'm all for the concept!
How to Meet Someone in the Upcoming New Year
The start of a new year always gives you pause to think about your life, and there is no better time to think about the new year than right now. After all, you'll have a few months to work on any goals you have then by the time the new year rolls around, you'll have a good start on where you eventually want to be.
Date Ideas for Halloween Night
There is something about being scared that can really unite a new couple quickly. That's one reason scary movies are so popular with daters. But movies and Halloween parties aren't the only thing a couple can do on October 31st to have some fun. Here are a few ideas to set the perfect mood for Halloween.

What to Wear, Things to Say, and When to Leave on a First Date
Does the first time you go out with a new guy or gal make you nervous? Apprehensive? Relax! The following strategies will allow you to have a comfortable and easy going date that's bound to go well.
Why Are You Single?

This is especially true if you have a history of failed relationships and you’re not sure why things went astray. Here are a few reasons why you may still be single. Fear not, however, all of these can be remedied.
Online Dating in a Small Town
There are some special considerations to think about in a tight-knit community when it comes to starting a relationship. Here are just a few concerns people typically have, and how to overcome them.
First Date Don’ts for Women
If you're not getting asked out for a second date, maybe your first date etiquette is to blame. Many women don't realize that while you're looking at your date and wondering if he'd be a good husband, he's getting bored because you're not part of the conversation. Translation? He won't ask you out for a second round.
