No one likes to talk about this stuff, so I guess that means I have to be the one. This may be the scariest post in the history of dating self-help, so if you prefer to be an ostrich, skip ahead. All paranoid schizophrenic, hypochondriacs who don’t want to spend the rest of their lives suffering from some plague-like disease, should also skip this post, and don’t even consider dating. You may want to go for the inflatable doll, and even then, use protection unless you are sure it is made from virgin vinyl. I feel sorry for all of us in the dating world. It’s ...

It's been some time since I posted here. All the information you needed to meet someone, have a relationship, get married, and divorced, in the space of six months was all contained in Dating Again - A Guide to Dating Just When You Thought You Were Done, available online, at book stores, and there are even some copies in the trunk of my car. Well, times have changed, and the world has become rather scary. You have no interest in shaking anyones hands. You're afraid to leave the house. You certainly have no interest in going on a date and kissing someone passionately after that f ...

It seems that finding Prince Charming or Cinderella is not an easy task, even on Internet dating sites. How many people feel that they have found a truly enchanted relationship? Not many, I'd posit. Most people realize that they can't have it all. And for all those who have found that blessed relationship, congratulations. Enjoy your lives happily ever after. For the rest of you, especially those on Internet dating sites who have noticed the multitude of divorced people, good luck. That special someone you have fabricated from your want list may not actually exist. The elusive p ...

Dating and dancing go together like Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire. Women, more than men, like to dance. If a guy is a good dancer, he's a commodity in social circles. And because so many men can't dance well, those that can are going to get the hottest women. However, dancing is much more complicated than a couple trotting around on the dance floor. Dancing is an art form, a recreation, a hobby and a pastime for starters. Many people do not realize that dancing is integrally tied to sex and fertility. How, you might ask, is dancing all about sex? How can being a good dancer get ...

First, lets' be clear about this subject matter. For all of you bikers who ended up on this chapter thinking the "estrous cycle" has to do with Harley Davidsons, you have come to the wrong place. This is all about the estrous cycle that governs sexual desire as it relates to procreation. Dating and understanding sexual desire a.k.a libido will help both men and women to find a compatible mate. Here you will find some information that explains why your date (or for that matter you spouse) is not always in the mood. Humans have a number of vestigial parts, mutations and ...

According to a recent Match.com article, "Will She Google You Before a Date?" 38% of singles would cancel a date due to something found while researching their date." The gist of the article was that the guy lost out on his chances with this woman because she Googled him and found out things she didn't like. The author's conclusion (Steve Friedman) was that Googling anyone is sad, and shallow, and betrays a lack of faith in oneself and the divine sweetness of the universe. But let's get real. It can be fun. This is actually a serious subject and to best answer ...

At the end of a first date, there is always the dilemma as to how to say goodbye. There are really only four choices: wave, shake hands, hug or kiss. If you wish to get technical, the degree of kiss can add additional choices from kissing the hand, the cheek, the lips, and even the French kiss that involves a cojoining of the tongues. This too shall be addressed so you will be prepared. Obviously, the decision as to how to say goodbye has much to do with how well you got along on your date. If the person appears to be repulsed by how you look, how you dress and everything you say, the F ...

After all of the gun violence we have going on in America, this may seem like an odd, insensitive topic since many people are calling for gun control. On the surface gun control sounds like a good idea, however, in China they have had mass killings with knives. Ban all knives in America! If you ever tried to spread cold peanut butter with a spoon, you know that's a poor idea. I remember a gang of thugs beat a young boy to death with bats on the steps of a Philadelphia church a number of years ago. Let's ban all bats in America! Why we keep harping on controlling the weapons and ...

At first you might think the title of this chapter is scintillating so as to catch your attention. Sadly, it’s not. Does dating cause cancer? The short answer is yes. Oh my! This author must be crazy. Well, that is not the case and here’s some proof. It is well documented that most cases of cervical cancer are caused by HPV (human papilloma virus). This is not fiction. You can look it up and find references everywhere. If you are the intellectual type you may want to do your search on medical and government scientific sites. This is no longer in question. Cervical cancer is ...

We learned about the human papilloma virus (HPV) and how, in certain circumstances, it is transmitted by sexual intercourse and can cause cancer if your immune system can't fight it off.. So what about kissing? Can such a glorious and pleasurable activity cause cancer? Before you accuse me of being the Grinch Who Stole Kissmass, let me explain that the HPV virus can be in saliva, and as such, should have the capacity to spread the infection by way of kissing. This has not yet been proven and even if it is so, it is a much more difficult way to transmit the virus, so don’t ge ...
