Confidence is the answer for successful dating
They say that those with drop dead gorgeous physical appeal are truly blessed. Whilst this is true, it fades into insignificance compared to someone that has a sophisticated and confident personality. If you are lucky enough to possess good looks as well as self confidence then you have the world at your feet.
As things go, we have little choice as to what we look like, (with the exception of plastic surgery) what we do have though is a choice of being a confident person if we so chose. Certainly some people are gifted in this area and operating in a confident manner comes naturally. In today’s competitive world there is a common saying ‘if you don’t ask you don’t get’ Confident people will come right out and ask or comment without giving it any thought hence seizing an opportunity when it becomes obvious, or ’striking while the iron is hot’ because if you don’t you will surely miss your chance as you watch that beautiful girl walk in the opposite direction, or you miss a small window of opportunity to close a deal at work as a result of hesitation.
Truly though, these people you see who can so naturally have anyone eating out of the palm of their hands achieve this by capitalizing on an opportunity and instinctively knowing when to strike. Anyone can do it, there are services such as life coaching that can whip your self confidence into line. Once you start to build on your self confidence you will notice how the world will not seem so much of a challenge anymore.
How to turn a crush into a date
A classic crush scenario is at the gym. Begin cautiously, the gym is where people often feel intimidated if their personal space is invaded. Keep it simple to start with. Comment on the terrible music, or the programme on the monitor. Don’t come on to heavy. Avoid becoming her self appointed personal trainer, do not start dishing out advice on her gym routine, insecurity plays a big role during a work out. Talk about what’s happening around you at the gym it’s less threatening, ask for some advice on the next gym class. Don’t go near her while she is flat out on the treadmill – Pick your moment.
The office crush. Be very careful with this one! If it goes horrible wrong, there’s no avoiding him. Casually ask him to join you and you’re work friends for Friday afternoon drinks. This doesn’t come across as unprofessional, it’s a good way of getting around asking him out on a one on one date. Keep your crush to yourself, don’t rely on someone to set you up, gossip will destroy any chance you have of eventually dating him.
The gorgeous waitress. Get to know her shifts, but be subtle, stalking her won’t give you the desired result. Sit in the area of the restaurant that she waits on. Make a point of being polite, charming and patient. In an environment where rudeness is rife, your charming behaviour will be noted by her and she will be happy to see you whenever you come in. Listen and make mention of things she has discussed with you. Win her trust. Don’t come right out and say “hey where do you live” That’s just creepy. Ask her about her university exams, or her favourite movie.
Online dating and chat security – do you know who you’re talking to?
If you’re single or have children and use the internet as a social tool, you need to know the potential dangers of socializing online.
Vulnerability plays a huge role for online dating predators and they will stop at nothing in their relentless pursuit for self gain. Nigeria and Senegal are two countries that have a massive underground network and thriving illegal economy based on deceiving lonely hearts. These countries are a breeding ground for online con artists as their governments do not police these criminal activities as online fraud is part of their economies. A bit like the opium farmers in Afghanistan, or the clothing markets in South East Asia who sell fake designer goods, the governments won’t stop it because such illegal activities prop up their economies and provide income for the people that governments can’t.

Common sense will see you beat the criminals and allow you to utilize the power of online dating sites to meet real and genuine singles . Begin your online chat anonymously, and give very little away until you know what you’re getting yourself into. Don’t be too eager to rush out and meet a guy until you have been able to verify certain things. You want to know the basics, where he lives, his home phone number, and where he works etc. I’m not suggesting you turn up at his home or work place, but it’s a simple process of indentifying him and eliminating doubt.
Sex lies and online dating
Some health professionals are of the opinion that people dating online are falling in love from the inside out, and are expressing their deepest passions and beliefs prior to even disclosing basic details such as their name or location.
Case studies published by Dr. Esther Gwinnell reveal how many men and women who chat online, will often share many of their personal life secrets prior to meeting offline.
One particular case study published by Dr. Gwinnell entails details of Elizabeth Copperfield, a 26 year old school teacher from New York City, who crossed paths with her now husband whilst online dating. Elizabeth posted a few messages on a blog and was promptly replied to by a man from Australia. The ensuing weeks saw the pair divulge personal information about each other that would normally be reserved for the closest of friends or family. Nearly 3 months had passed when they swapped phone numbers. Brian waited apprehensively at Sydney’s international airport for Elizabeth to clear customs, in what would be their very first face to face exchange.

We hear so many tragic stories and bad press regarding love gone wrong on internet singles sites, although Brian and Elizabeth went on to marry and are currently living at St Albans, near London. Real life case studies such as those published by Dr. Gwinnell certainly shows us that not everyone gets conned when they sign up to online dating.
