When Dating Is Dangerous By Amy Dickinson

One of the ironies of parenting is how we seem destined to be clueless about our teenagers. Here we are, entwined in this most intimate relationship with our very own children, yet teens seem to live in another world--one with nonstop Internet access and encyclopedic knowledge of song lyrics. When teens start dating, they lurch back and forth between their private agonies and joys, and mask their problems and heartaches with arguments about learner's permits and lip gloss. We parents wait up nights and cross our fingers, hoping our kids will make it to adulthood unscathed. Unfortunately, many of them don't.

A recent study by the Harvard School of Public Health highlights how perilous adolescence can be, especially for girls. The comprehensive study of 1,977 high school girls shows that 1 in 5 reports being a victim of physical or sexual violence in a dating relationship. Girls reported being "hit, slapped, shoved or forced into sexual activity" by dates. Since this is the first study of its kind, it's not clear whether such abuse is on the rise, but Dr. Jay Silverman, author of the report, called the numbers "extremely high."

As the mother of an adolescent girl lucky enough to come of age in the era of "girl power," the statistics make me wonder if, with all of our messages about empowerment and sexual openness, we've forgotten to tell our daughters that they're still vulnerable when they're with someone bigger and stronger. Laura Sessions Stepp, who spent a year interviewing teens for her book Our Last Best Shot, isn't surprised by statistics showing a high incidence of violence on dates. "Girls in high school talk a lot about the pressure to have sex," she says, "and I wonder if 'girl power' makes them think they can handle situations they're not ready for." Sara Stillman, 17, author of Soul Searching, a book for high school girls, thinks the pressure and status of having a boyfriend early can propel girls into unhealthy relationships.

Since many girls won't tell their moms and dads about dating violence, parents should be on the lookout for signs of depression, such as changes in eating and sleeping habits, or an increase in violent outbursts. Experts in youth violence prevention say parents need to talk explicitly to kids well before they reach dating age, teaching them that all violence is unacceptable and to demand respect in their friendships. Parents should know their teens' friends and encourage going out in groups. If they suspect a problem, parents should try to find someone--a counselor or adult friend--their girls will talk to. And, notes Silverman, "we can't accept that boys will be boys. We need to intervene with boys, to hold them accountable for what they are doing."

The pains of being inlove with a married partner

When you are in love with a married man/woman. The married person is also in love with a man/woman. But does not want to give away the marriage. What should be done?
Those who fall in love with a married person get trapped. That is the trap of dishonesty.Such
relationships will never be happy. The married person is having dual commitments and is hiding his love from his/her spouse. What use is that marriage?

The thought that you are cheating your spouse is enough to kill all the joy. Dishonesty never gives joy. Even if the married person wants to have dual commitments, he/she should make it very clear to the spouse. There should be no hide and seek. Once you tell your spouse, your spouse has to decide about whether the relationship should continue or marriage be broken.
Do not be surprised if the spouse leave the other relationship to continue for love of his/her partner.
As far as the unmarried lover is concerned, he/she should stop seeing the lover unless the married end is sorted out fully. Otherwise you will again have the guilt of cheating. Such relationships are heart breaking and need tremendous understanding.
Me and my own, that is the principal of life for most of us. No body wants to share his /her spouse with others. It was not uncommon in earlier days. But today, the whole idea seems difficult to imagine. Love and relationship are not easy to live with. Our emotions and feelings can bring us pain at any time.

Top 5 Dating Tips to Help You Date Sexy Women No Matter Your Looks, Age or Income by John Alanis

As the dating tips master who has helped millions of men date sexy women no matter their looks, age or income, I've heard all of the stories. I hear it over and over -- "It was going so great, and then she disappeared on me... why? What happened? We were having such a great time together. I'm tired of this happening. I want to date sexy women, but I want them to stick around. Do you have any dating tips for me?"Every time a guy tells me this, I discover he's making the exact same dating mistakes that most guys do. These dating mistakes can kill your chances of successfully dating sexy women.Here Are My Top 5 Dating Tips to Help You Skyrocket Your Success with Sexy Women:
Dating tip #1: Don't date.Yes, you heard me right. I said don't date. Think about a traditional "date." It's full of pressure, awkwardness, evaluation and it just plain sucks. What do you do on a traditional date? Dinner, movie, kiss goodnight, and then she doesn't return your calls. Trust me, it's much better (and cheaper) to meet for coffee. It's fun and relaxed with none of the normal dating expectations.
Dating tip #2: The less you do and say, the more she's attracted to you.Most guys try to impress sexy women. Sexy women have heard it all before. But, if you ask her about herself, shut up and listen, and display a SMALL degree of interest, she'll begin to wonder why you're not slobbering all over her. She'll want to discover more. Now you're a challenge, and sexy women love challenging guys.
Dating tip #3: Be a gentleman but also be a "naughty little boy."
Remember the "class clown" in elementary school -- the guy who was cool and funny all at the same time? When you're talking to sexy women, make unexpected and mischievous comments. Leave them thinking, "I can't believe he just said that... but I like it." This shows sexy women you're NOT impressed by their looks and you need to see more. And because this is so different from what they're used to, they can't help but be attracted. I cannot emphasize the importance of this dating tip.
Dating tip #4: Avoid all canned pick up lines or any type of acting.
Sexy women have heard it all before. As soon as you spout one, you're instantly what I call a JAG (just another guy). And JAG's don't get sexy women!
Dating tip #5: Look out for her tests.
Sexy women will test you to see if you'll stand up to them. If you can't stand up to her, you can't stand up for her. If she asks you to buy her things, that's a test. It's also a perfect opportunity to be a naughty little boy as described in dating tip #3. Say something like, "What do I look like an ATM machine? You should buy ME something, just for the privilege of spending time with me. I like sexy women who buy me things!" Say this in a playful, yet firm manner that lets her know you're onto her. When you pass their tests, it drives sexy women wild with desire.
Obviously there are lots of other dating tips, tricks and secrets you can put to use to grab a hold of the sexy woman of your dreams and never let her go. But if you pay attention to these dating tips, you'll be a whole lot more successful with sexy women. I guarantee it. So, go re-read all the dating tips again now and start having more fun on your dating adventures!

Who Has the Dating Power - Men or Women?

If you ever find yourself dating the kind of woman who believes she has sexual power over men and she suddenly finds herself in the 'one down' position in the relationship, she will usually try in all sorts of ways to sneak but up to the one-up position. Note: This means you are on the right track and she is enjoying herself. Don't stuff it up. Some examples of her trying to regain the one up position:- Playing mind games (e.g. not returning your calls or messages for hours or days even though you know she has nothing else to do, or is the type to respond to messages straight away).- Wearing flattering clothes and mentioning that other guys are checking her out.- Acting unimpressed with the things that you do (i.e. trying to get you to do more to impress her).- Creating situations where you rely on her (e.g. she's the designated driver for the night, but keeps you waiting by arriving late. You move in together and share rent, etc).- Making you fall in love with her and then becoming a little distant so you chase her even more.If you buckle under those sorts of tests, the woman will gain more and more of the 'silent dating power' and her attraction and interest in you may naturally diminish. Suddenly, you may find yourself behaving like she had been previously (i.e. trying to get yourself back to the 'one up' position). You might find yourself trying harder to impress her, to spark certain feelings or to get her attention. However, you must hold your ground. At a deep level, she will appreciate it if you can keep her interested by not falling for her instinctive attempts to test your masculinity.Better yet, don't even play with her tantrum. For example: A woman is throwing a little tantrum because you didn't call her the night before.Her: (In an angry, paranoid tone) Why didn't you call me last night?You: (Chuckling) Hehe...you're cute. Hey, I've gotta tell you something... I just made the best stir-fry ever...if you're nice I'll save you some. Her: Cool, but hey... why didn't you call me?You: C'mon, don't be silly. How was your day today? Tell me about something good that happened...If you do find yourself in the one-down position in terms of the dating power, you may also find yourself wanting to give a woman more compliments. So, here's some tips on that topic. A genuine compliment is something that we rarely forget. A compliment out of supplication is something we often ignore as meaningless, or even resent.Man: Wow, you are so beautiful.Woman: Thanks, you're so sweet.That may look like a positive interaction to some of you, but in reality it equals nothing if the woman doesn't feel attraction for you, or if you're trying to suck up to her. You can compliment a woman on anything you like, but make sure that she is attracted to you first. Here are some great examples of how to compliment a woman:You: Hey, I like your dress sense.Her: (Says something).You: Yeah, it's stylish (trendy/cool/funky or whatever else you want to say)....I like girls who dress like that...You: Hey, you have nice teeth.Her: (Says something).You: I like nice teeth...You: I think you're really sexyHer: (Usually flattered and can't believe you had the balls to say it.)Complimenting too early: Do the right thing by her and don't be another guy who comes along babbling out compliment after compliment, or demonstrates that he will offer no challenge.The best time to give a woman a compliment: Feel free to reward good behavior with a compliment when a woman says something witty, does something nice for you, etc. Despite what women may say, they generally prefer a man who will make them work for it. For example: You've been talking to a woman for a little while. She is being really friendly, flirty and responsive and says something funny. Start laughing quietly to yourself and have a private little moment.Her: What?You: I just noticed something about you.Her: What?You: You're actually quite funny (or cute, or whatever you want to say about her). I like that.But remember that you can't get too predictable with women, or they'll lose interest. Sometimes, you should playfully tease a woman for doing nice things or saying something cool. Sometimes you should compliment her.

SEARCHING LADIES MAY NEED THIS 4 POINT by Alatishe Arafat

It is a common sight to see people breaking up with their partner, some shortly after they started, some after years of being together. It may have been the wrong choice at first, or simply making your first choice of finding your first man. It is all up to an individual's determination to look for their potential partner.

1. Be different :To ensure that you will have a unique relationship that differs from the men you usually meet throughout your daily life, step away from your daily routine. A simple leap out of your daily working schedule will open your window of interaction to allow strangers to meet you. This will let you have a chance to meet other single individuals whom are not those surrounding you daily like your office colleagues. There are so many of them out there just that you did not notice them as your daily activities do not allow you to see this wide selection of dates.

2. Let them approach you: Another good tip on how to find a man is to allow them to come to you instead. Yes, this is one of the main barriers from letting men to approach you. Many men felt shy or embarrassing to be rejected by a woman, so allowing them to come and approach you actually give them courage to talk or date you. Ease your rules a bit, let them know that you are easily approachable and they will start flowing in one after another. Be as polite and friendly as possible to let them approach you without hesitation, as most of them will back off quickly if they get to know that you are being labeled as the 'Tough-To-Chat-With' girl from another guy.

3. Have fun: Add some new activities in your life. Join your friends to attend a workout course in a gym after work for example. This opens up your opportunity to find a man that suits your taste by simply joining something new. Learn new things such as scuba diving lessons, or rock climbing. You will sure meet a lot of interesting guys whom are not fond of hanging out in the café or lounges. Who knows a small investment on an activity will keep your life exciting, in the meantime allowing you to have a go at a selection of guys to get to know them.

4. Be brave: Last but not least, a crucial tip on how to find a man is to learn to be brave. Timidity and shyness are the uniqueness of a women, which makes them hard to approach the opposite sex audience. Learn to be brave and courageous. This will boost up your confidence in talking, introducing, or even flirting with an unknown guy. Men will find women like this are more impressive and tend to reply back confidently and genuinely. From there onwards it is a good chance to get to know each other when you have the confidence to carry on with the introduction process.

Just, remember those points above to yourself, look at guys with a different point of view and approach them with a smile, it will be no difficulties for you on how to find a man to be your potential lover.

How to Survive Valentine's Day by Bonnie Burton

Pink teddy bears, red roses and heart-shaped boxes full of candy can only mean one thing - Valentine's Day. Depending on how you look at things, there can only be one of two outcomes. You'll either dance the jig of complete happiness or you'll wallow in bitter disappointment.
Of course, even if your boyfriend conveniently forgets the holiday where he's suppose to celebrate that he has a girlfriend, you can still have an amazing day. Take this advice, and stop staring at the sky for a glimpse of Cupid.
Don't have huge expectations.There's something every girl needs to learn when it comes to Valentine's Day and boyfriends. Unless your boy is a hopeless romantic, don't plan on any big productions or lavish gifts. Most fellas get kinda sqeamish when it comes to matters of the heart so it's no surprise that this holiday leaves them feeling confused as to how to make us happy. The best thing you can do for your beloved is to make sure your expectations are realistic.
Plan a low-key event.Just because it's Valentine's Day doesn't mean you have to go on a date to some fancy-schmancy restaurant and spend a lot of money. You could have a casual indoor picnic, or perhaps go to your local planetarium and have a romantic night under the stars no matter what the weather.
Do something special for yourself.Whether you have a beau or not, you should still take some time out for yourself on Valentine's Day. Treat yourself to a day at the zoo, or buy a brand new journal and fill it with artistic doodles. Take some time out for yourself and remember that you're pretty cool with or without a Valentine.
Hang with pals.If you don't want to bother doing the whole couple thing, you can always hang out with a group of friends too. This means the pressure is off both of you to be super-romantic, and you can just be yourselves with each other and your friends. Anyone for a love-filled night of bowling?
Don't freak out over gifts.This isn't Christmas or Hanukkah, so there's really no reason to buy him a bunch of stuff, or to expect a basket full of goodies from him. A simple, thoughtful gift should do the trick. He might like some homemade cookies or the latest issue of his favorite comic. But don't get out of control by using all your savings to buy him a scooter.
Make a Valentine for someone who needs it.Remember how Charlie Brown felt when no one gave him a Valentine?Ê Do your part to save someone's mood by making them a card. It doesn't have to be elaborate, but a cute card with a train that says "I choo-choose you to be my Valentine" is bound to make the grumpiest pal giggle.
Hug your mom.Okay, I realize this is hokey and has zero to do with boys, but when was the last time you hugged your mom for no reason other than you love her? Valentine's Day isn't just about showing how much you care about your boyfriend, but also your friends and family. Your folks might get a little suspicious of all those unprovoked hugs, but once they see it's not because you want a raise in your allowance, they'll appreciate the gesture.

How You Can "Force" a girl to Like You Back

If you have ever been in a situation where the woman that you like just does not respond to whatever you do.She might still talk to you, but you can tell that she really is not that into you at all. You know that if you do not pull off something special she will totally forget about you immediately after you left her. There are some techniques and tactics which you can use to immediately make her like you.
Two of these Tactics To "Force" A Woman Who Ignores You Like You Back are:
The Green-Eyed Brat: Jealousy is the strongest seduction weapon if there ever is one. Inciting jealousy in a girl will often give you all the power you need to literally force her to like you. When in a group, ask her to introduce you to her friends, and then talk more to her friends than her. This will make you come across as non-needy, and may even compel her to chase you. Try it.

Fractionation:If you cannot make a woman like you whatever you do, then why not just hypnotize her? Master seducers have been known to use this hypnosis technique called 'fractionation'. This is where a woman is made to go through an emotional rollercoaster and in the process make her emotionally dependent on them. This is done by making the woman go through both happy and sad states, and immediately 'associating'the happy states with the man.
Fractionation is known to be able to make a woman fall in love in as little as 15 minutes. This is highly controversial, but very effective.
Fractionation is considered as a 'dark art' tactic which is the basis of hypnosis-based seduction, and while controversial, it is known to be one of the most effective tactics ever invented by underground seductionists.
It is described in a step-by-step system in the Female persuasion and influence mastery. It can beed downloaded here.
