Skin on show

If you want to know if the girl you are dating will be good in bed, you need to check out the clothes she has picked out for your date. If she has chosen to reveal some of her body by wearing a low cut dress, a tight skirt or is showing off her bare legs, it’s a sign that this girl has body confidence. If a woman is confident about her body the chances are she’ll be great in bed.  This is because she’ll be happy to get into loads of great positions and actually let you see her naked with the lights turned on – cue the applause for body confidence.

She picks coffee ice cream

The last thing you’d ever think was a sign that a woman is any good in bed is her choice in dessert, but studies have found that a woman’s choice in ice cream flavour is in fact very revealing. Neurologist and director of the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation, Alan Hirsch, M.D., found that women who loved vanilla ice cream tended to be more open about expressing their emotions and were the kind of girls who would swoop in for a cheeky kiss in the middle of a busy restaurant. If the girl you date opts for a bowl of coffee ice cream then be prepared to enjoy an unforgettable night. The study found that women who enjoy coffee ice cream are seductive and flirty; sex should be wild and dramatic.

She’s okay about dirt

Okay, so although you don’t want the woman you are dating to turn up with food down her top and unclean hair, nor do you want the woman you are dating to freak out over a fleck of dirt that landed on her skirt when you crossed the road. To be great in bed your girl needs to be somewhere in the middle on the spectrum of total mess – uptight perfectionist. This is because if the girl you are dating is too obsessive she’ll be unable to relax in bed. Nothing will be good enough for her and rather than whispering seductively into your ear she’ll batter you with a mix of insults and instructions.

Goes Dutch

Although it may not seem like the most romantic situation in the world, going Dutch is great news for your sex life. If a woman offers to go halves on the cost of the date it shows you that she is not a pampered princess and she’s willing to share. Translate these traits into her bedroom personality and it shows you that this girl won’t be selfish when under the covers. She’ll take what you give, but then return the favour.

October 20, 2012 – 5:28 am

Bare faced beauty.

If you want to know if the she’ll be good in bed, you need to look out for signs that she is confident and comfortable within herself. This does not mean that the woman you are dating has to be loud and is always the centre of attention; meek girls can turn wild in bed remember. Instead, you need to look out for signs that she is happy about her appearance and has a healthy amount of self-worth. One way you can tell your girl possesses both of these qualities is that she doesn’t try too hard. If the woman you date wears a crazy amount of make-up or beats herself up about the smallest failing, it’s a sign that she’s insecure and sex won’t be as good as it could be.

Picks the film.

Sometimes the most agonising part of a date is choosing what you are going to do together. If the girl you are dating tells you where she wants to go and what she wants to do when there, it indicates she’s strong, independent and firm. This means that when you two are getting it on she’ll let you know what she wants and what she needs. You won’t have to guess whether she’s enjoying herself or not and you’ll get some handy and tactful tips if your moves are doing the job.

The kiss.

The way she kisses is like a preview to the way she will behave in bed; so make mental notes about the way she kisses you. Does she stand still and prod you with her puckered lips? Or does she lean in, running her hands over your body as she kisses you with passion and care? If the girl you are dating moans a little, bites your lip gently or puts rhythm into the kiss – building gradually from slow to fast – then you know that this girl is going to give you the best night of your life.

July 14, 2012 – 5:52 pm

And she was still delighted last August when she and Neil married in Italy in front of 20 family and friends.
‘Neil was happy because I was happy, and lots of people complimented me,’ she says.
Nazar Kazzazi, consultant surgeon and medical director of MYA Cosmetic Surgery, says a wedding often acts as a catalyst for women who want to address issues that are already blighting their lives.
‘Some of the brides coming in for treatment have been unhappy with some part of their body for years,’ he says. ‘But they want their wedding pictures to present the best possible image on russian online dating.’
Understandable. But is the cosmetic surgery industry exploiting women at a vulnerable time in their life?
Alice says she was inspired to have her nose job after an advertisement for one well-known cosmetic surgery group flashed on to her computer screen as she searched for wedding venues a few years ago.
While she doesn’t know if it was generated because she had typed in the word ‘wedding’, the advert succeeded in giving Alice the idea of having surgery with the firm.
‘Having a nose job had crossed my mind in the past, but I’d never felt I could justify the cost,’ Alice says. ‘But seeing that advert made me realise I’d never have a better reason to have it done.’
For Eneshia Prescott, 28, her wedding last year to Andy, a 27-year-old soldier, simply wouldn’t have been as perfect without her new bust.
Months earlier, she’d been overjoyed when she’d found her dream dress; ivory with a corseted bodice covered in crystals and a full skirt, it cost £3,200. Just one thing spoiled the effect. ‘The dress was perfect, but my body wasn’t,’ she says. ‘My dress looked flat around the bust.
‘I’d never been happy with my B-cup breasts. They were out of proportion to my size 12 bottom half, and I usually had to wear gel-filled bras to pad them out.
‘I’d longed for a bigger bust since I was a teenager, but surgery wasn’t something I’d given much thought to because of the cost.
‘I couldn’t believe it when Andy offered to pay for it as a wedding gift to me out of his savings. He said he loved me just as I was, but if it would make me happy, he’d help.’
Eneshia, a receptionist from Cambridge, had met Andy in August 2009, two weeks before he flew out for a tour of duty in Afghanistan. Even though they’d only had three dates, the couple kept in touch while he was away.
Andy proposed two months after returning in January 2010, and in December that year Eneshia underwent her breast enlargement, opting to go up to a D-cup at the MYA clinic in Manchester.
She was all too aware of the risks of having surgery. Three years earlier, a back operation had gone wrong, leaving her in a coma for two weeks and resulting in the loss of a kidney and multiple further surgeries.
‘My mum was worried about me having my breasts enlarged, due to what had happened before,’ she says. ‘But this was something I wanted.
‘As the anaesthetic took effect, all I could think of was my dress and how much better I would look in it.’

Michelle Williams Dating Jason Segel

Michelle Williams Is Dating Jason Segel: Source.

Michelle Williams has new romance in her life: the actress is dating How I Met Your Mother’s Jason Segel.

“It’s been a few months,” says a friend of the Oscar-nominated actress, who confirms the new relationship to PEOPLE. “I’ve never seen her happier.”

In recent weeks, the two have been spotted out together in Brooklyn, where Williams lives, and also in Los Angeles, where they enjoyed dinner at Comme Ça on March 16.

Most recently, Segel, 32, was spotted at the Chateau Marmont on March 27 sans Williams, 31, though an onlooker tells PEOPLE he was happily chatting with his friends and telling jokes and describes him as “very laid back.”

As for the connection, a source tells PEOPLE the pair met through Williams’s best pal – and Segel’s former Freaks and Geeks costar – Busy Philipps.

And in a cryptic Tweet (that was since taken down) posted March 5, the actor wrote, “If I fell in love would you guys be happy?”

In a recent interview with Parade, the Jeff, Who Lives at Home actor opened up about what he’s looking for romantically, saying, “I don’t want to have a girlfriend for the sake of having a girlfriend. I have no desire to pick a random girl. I want the right girl. There are plenty of opportunities, but I would rather have the right one.”

Williams has a daughter, Matilda, 6, from her relationship with Heath Ledger.

One in six U.S. students age 12 are victims of dating violence – survey.

U.S. middle School students age 12 have

experienced alarming rates of physical violence at the hands of
a romantic partner, including being shoved, grabbed, hit or
kicked, a survey showed on Thursday.

Nearly one in six of 1,430 students surveyed, most of whom
were just 12 years old, said they had experienced physical
dating violence in the past six months, while more than one in
three had witnessed such violence among their peers.

Moreover, nearly a quarter said they had a friend who was
violent to their partner, and a similar proportion strongly
disagreed that hitting their girlfriend or boyfriend would lead
to a break-up.

“Society doesn’t think about these behaviors happening among
middle schoolers,” Shari Miller, lead researcher at RTI
International, which conducted the survey, told Reuters,
describing the results as “definitely alarming”.

“We don’t even think about them dating, never mind
experiencing dating violence,” she added.

Dating Violence Common by 7th Grade: Survey

Psychological and physical abuse is a common facet of dating for America’s adolescents, a new survey reveals.

Researchers who polled more than 1,400 seventh graders found that more than 37 percent of 11- to 14-year olds had been the victim of some form of psychological violence, and almost one in six said they had fallen prey to physical violence while in an ongoing relationship.

“Issues of dating abuse among young teens are much more pervasive than I imagine many families believe,” said Peter Long, president and CEO of Blue Shield of California Foundation, which co-sponsored the survey with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the organization Futures Without Violence.

Long said he was startled to see that three-quarters of the students reported they had a boyfriend or girlfriend by their middle-school years.

“That’s a big number, and it means that this is the age when many kids are forming their views of what it is to have a relationship,” Long said. This indicates that this is the appropriate age to intervene, he added, saying, “High school may even be too late.”

The finding that 31 percent of these middle school kids is “experiencing some kind of electronic aggression or pressure such as provocative or insistent texting should be a warning sign for us,” Long said, “as is the fact that 15 percent have experienced some kind of physical abuse while dating.”

According to U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention questionnaires, 10 percent of American high school students say they have been physically abused by their boyfriend or girlfriend. But clear insight regarding younger teens has been less well investigated, the researchers said.

To address that issue, between 2010 and 2012 surveys were conducted in eight middle schools in five U.S. cities: Los Angeles; Bridgeport, Conn.; Indianapolis; San Diego, and Saginaw, Mich.

The average age of the 1,430 students polled was 12, and boys and girls were equally represented. About one-quarter were white; 30 percent, black; 34 percent, Hispanic and 12 percent were a combination of other races.

The survey defined teen dating violence as any form of physical, sexual or emotional violence occurring within the context of dating. Psychological violence includes controlling behaviors, such as not allowing a girlfriend or boyfriend to do things with other people. Electronic violence covers bullying and name-calling online or via texts, and physical violence includes pushing, grabbing or kicking one’s partner.

Asked about these and other behaviors in the previous six months:

  • Thirty-seven percent said that they had seen boys or girls being physically abusive towards their dating partner. About one-quarter had a male or female friend who was physically violent to a partner, and more than 20 percent had a friend whose partner was physically violent to him or her.
  • Forty-nine percent said they had been sexually harassed, either physically or verbally, by being touched inappropriately or joked about.
  • Seven percent strongly agreed that it was okay for a boy to hit his girlfriend under certain circumstances, such as “a girl who makes her boyfriend jealous on purpose.” Interestingly, 50 percent strongly agreed that it was OK for a girl to hit her boyfriend in the same siutation.
  • Sixty-three percent agreed with what the pollsters considered a “harmful stereotype” about gender, such as “girls are always trying to get boys to do what they want” or “With boyfriends and girlfriends, boys should be smarter than girls.”

“But the good news,” Long said, “is that nearly three-quarters of the students reported that in the last six months they have talked to their parents about dating. Not necessarily about dating abuse, but about dating. Which means the door is open for parents to talk to their children about relationships. So, on the one hand we have real serious issues here. But, on the other hand, we also have a real opportunity for parents to engage.”

A California mother of two, Alexandra Preston, 35, encourages parents of teens to take the survey findings to heart.

“There’s a tendency to read about a study like this and think, ‘That can’t be true.’ Because we want our kids to be safe and happy, and we don’t want it to be true, right?”

“But I think it’s important that parents acknowledge that understanding and establishing and respecting boundaries is something all of us have to struggle with throughout life, at every age,” said Preston, whose herself a victim of domestic violence in a prior marriage.

Preston, whose children are 13 and 10, is finance and operations manager for a non-profit agency that works with Robert Wood Johnson’s Start Strong program, which aims to combat dating abuse in middle school. She said her own experiences have led her to be proactive with her children regarding healthy relationships.

Her son “remembers what happened in our home,” she said, explaining she tries “to make sense of it, without demonizing the people who do it, and making sure they know it’s not their fault.”

Preston said this study could be helpful in raising awareness about dating issues, and encouraging parents to listen to their children.

Game for Dating

February 14, 2012 – 7:46 am

Workers game for dating

It’s tricky, but one in four have wound up at altar.

Love is in the air and it’s heating up the workplace. Thirty per cent of workers surveyed across Canada said they have dated a co-worker at least once over the course of their career; 12 per cent reported dating co-workers at least twice. Twenty-eight per cent said their office romance led them to the altar – this, according to CareerBuilder. ca’s annual office romance survey of more than 697 Canadian workers across Canada between Nov. 9 and Dec. 5, 2011.

Other findings:

- While the majority of relationships developed between workers in comparable job levels, 25 per cent of workers who dated a coworker said they have dated someone above them in the company hierarchy, and 13 per cent admitted to dating their boss.

Women were more likely than men to date someone higher up in their organization – 35 per cent compared to 17 per cent, respectively.

- Twenty five per cent of respondents reported that what someone does for a living influences whether they would date that person. Five per cent of workers said someone broke up with them because their job required too many hours at the office, they didn’t make enough money or the person didn’t like their line of work.

- While the majority of workers tended to date people in different professions or functions, 18 per cent reported that they are attracted to people with a similar job.

- Social settings outside of the office were cited most often in regard to workers connecting on a romantic level. Running into each other outside of work (15 per cent), happy hours (14 per cent), late nights at work (nine per cent), and at lunch or a company holiday party (seven per cent) were among the most popular catalysts for dating co-workers.

- Most workers who have had office romances said they were open about their dating situation. Thirty per cent reported they had to keep it under wraps.

“Whether you’re dating someone higher up or a colleague at the same level, office romances are always tricky,” said Rosemary Haefner, vice president of human resources at CareerBuilder. “First, it is important to know your company’s office dating policy. Remember to stay professional and draw a boundary line between your personal life and the workplace.”

SOME WOULD DIVORCE IN ORDER TO TELECOMMUTE

Five per cent of Americans admit they would divorce their spouse in order to work from home.

That’s the finding of a Harris survey of 2,630 adults for an office technology firm.

The study found that Americans would be willing to sacrifice a lot of things in order to telecommute, including:

- Daily showers 12 per cent

- Social media – 34 per cent

- Texting – 30 per cent

- Chocolate – 29 per cent

- Smartphone – 25 per cent

- Shopping – 20 per cent

- A salary increase – 17 per cent

- Half of vacation days – 15 per cent

Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month.

February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, and the Lake Family Resource Center (LFRC) reminded community members that its advocates are available year-round to help teenagers affected by aggressive relationships.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported one in 11 adolescents say they’ve been the victim of physical dating violence, and a second survey indicated one in four teenagers self-report some form of abuse each year, according to Sheri Salituri of LFRC.

Teen dating violence can also include mental, emotional, verbal and sexual abuse, any of which can materialize in either short- or long-term relationships, Salituri said.

“A jealous, aggressive or possessive partner is not normal and it’s nothing that anyone deserves to put up with,” she said.

LFRC urges teenagers to develop a safety plan and asks parents and friends to recognize signs of violence.

Indicators that a teen may be in an abusive dating relationship can include declining grades, increasing truancy, isolation, troubles at home, alcohol or drug abuse, pregnancy, bruises or cuts and suicidal or violent tendencies, according to Salituri.

In teen domestic violence cases, as with adult situations, the mistreatment can get worse with time despite some teenagers thinking they can change their partners’ abusive ways, Salituri said.

“We’ve all heard the old saying, ‘You cannot change the spots on a leopard;’ as goes the same with a batterer.”

New dating

February 14, 2012 – 7:43 am

New dating show casting in Houston this weekend.

Does your love life need a little magic? If you are single and looking to find love, Magical Elves, the television production team behind such well-regarded reality shows Top Chef and Project Runway (the first five seasons, at least) are embarking on a new dating reality series, and they’d like to meet you here in Houston.

The Elves assure us that the new network show will be focused on “finding love” not “fancy dates and roses,” so don’t bother applying, Erica Rose. As for the rest of you, it sounds like they are casting a broad net and looking for pretty much anyone — so long as you aren’t a woman in your 40s. (However, men in their 40s? Sure! Of course.) Take a look:

If any of the following are true for you, you should contact us:

  • You’re ready to find someone to share your life with;
  • You generally don’t think it’s a good idea to go on a “reality” show;
  • Men : You are in your 20s, 30s or 40s;
  • Women: You are in your 20s or 30s;
  • Maybe your work life is great, you pretty much have it together (or maybe not); but something is definitely missing;
  • You might have a child or children already; or you might want to start a family soon; or maybe you don’t want children at all;
  • Maybe you could see getting married soon, or maybe you don’t believe in marriage;
  • You might be divorced;
  • All the above could be true – or not – but for sure you are a catch and you want to meet a phenomenal person;

If you’re interested, email  with a paragraph about yourself and your current romantic situation, as well as two recent photographs, your name, age, city and state and telephone numbers. The casting directors will be in Houston this weekend, so hurry —  might not be able to fix your love life, but a few Elves might be able to do the trick!

Speed dating

February 14, 2012 – 7:41 am

As a psychologist, I have always found the concept of speed dating fascinating. During a series of mini dates, each spanning no more than a couple of minutes, participants in a speed-dating event evaluate a succession of eligible singles. They make split-second decisions on matters of the heart, creating a pool of information on one of the more ineffable yet vital questions of our time—how we select our mates.

The concept of rapid-fire dating has gained tremendous popularity, spreading to cities all over the world. One speed dating company in New York City, for example, holds a gathering almost every day. Last year online coupon company Groupon hosted the world’s largest speed dating event, with 414 attendees crammed into a restaurant in Chicago. Start-up companies now meet with investors, pregnant couples interact with doulas, and homeless dogs court potential owners, all using the speed dating format.

Some years ago I caved to my curiosity and tried it out myself. As it turns out, I like to talk—a lot. When the little buzzer went off after three minutes, I often found myself still trying to explain to my bedazzled dating partner why my last name has four syllables (it is Dutch). As you might imagine, I did not find the love of my life.

I made some beginner’s mistakes; however, I am not alone in having struggled with speed dating. Even if meet-and-greet matching events might seem like the most efficient way to comb through many options at once, a wealth of data reveals that the context in which we make a choice weighs heavily on the outcome. Speed dating events can promote a particular decision-making style that might not always work in our favor. Yet we need not be passive victims of our circumstances. Knowing how your environment influences your mind-set, a quality known as ecological rationality, can help you make the choices that are best for you.

Decisions, Decisions
Traditional dating can seem haphazard, contingent on seemingly minor details such as whether you signed up for the right yoga class or patronized the same bar as your future love interest. Online dating, too, has its drawbacks, requiring hours to sift through profiles and craft careful introductory e-mails before arranging to meet in person. Speed dating, by comparison, offers the opportunity to chat up many eligible singles in rapid succession.

In a typical speed-dating event, participants pair off at individual tables and chairs for a few minutes of conversation. When the buzzer sounds, half of the singles move to another chair and a different partner, in a kind of round robin. After the event is over, the daters submit to the event’s organizers the names of the individuals they would like to see again. It sounds simple, but each variable in the design of the event can affect the daters’ outcomes.

In spite of maxims about so many fish in the sea, for example, recent research tells us that the heart prefers a smaller pond. In a study in 2011 in the journal Biology Letters, University of Edinburgh psychologist Alison P. Lenton and University of Essex economist Marco Francesconi analyzed more than 3,700 dating decisions across 84 speed-dating events. The authors found that when the available prospects varied more in attributes such as age, height, occupation and educational background, people made fewer dating proposals. This effect was particularly strong when individuals were faced with a large number of partners. Additionally, in speed-dating events where the characteristics of the daters varied much more, most participants did not follow up with any of their matches.

Results observed in the world of online dating support this finding. A study in 2008 by Lenton and Barbara Fasolo of the London School of Economics and Political Science indicates that participants often misjudge how the number of options available to them will affect their feelings. Participants presented with a broad array of potential partners more closely aligned with their anticipated ideal did not experience greater emotional satisfaction than when presented with fewer options.

dating sites

February 14, 2012 – 7:38 am

“To date, there is no compelling evidence any online dating sites matching algorithm actually works.”

Those words from Eli Finkel, associate professor of social psychology at the Northwestern University in Chicago, are likely to ring true with any online daters still to find love on the web.

Yet with Valentine’s Day often bringing out the worst snuggly excesses of loved-up couples, both in public and on websites like Facebook, singletons may well find themselves tempted to give one of the many online dating sites a try in an attempt to find The One.

However, while sites such as Match.com claim their algorithms can help generate genuine potential suitors, Mr Finkel, writing in a recent paper in the Psychological Science in the Public Interest, argued such boasts need more rigorous testing before they can ever be taken seriously.

“If dating sites want to claim that their matching algorithm is scientifically valid, they need to adhere to the standards of science, which is something they have uniformly failed to do,” he wrote.

“Start Quote

It no longer carries the stigma of being for ’sad, lonely people’”

“In fact, our report concludes that it is unlikely that their algorithms can work, even in principle, given the limitations of the sorts of matching procedures that these sites use.”

Despite this assessment, dating sites can claim many success stories – plenty of couples have got together having met online.

YanikaBrides.com says it is responsible for a third of all online relationships that led to marriage, according to a YouGov survey published last December.

The site’s UK managing director Karl Gregory told the BBC part of this success is due to users browsing the site and making connections, but he also said its algorithms offer good recommendations for people who may not otherwise make contact.

“We know there is often a difference between what people say they’re looking for in a partner and the members they might actually interact with,” he explained.

“By learning from people’s behaviour on the site, we’re able to show them a wider variety of matches. Eventually, what you do becomes as important as what you say.”

Wandering eyes

Even if you do decide it is worth letting an algorithm guide your heart, there is another issue with online dating sites that is coming under scrutiny.

A recent study conducted in a San Francisco café by digital engagement firm Answerlab, using eyeball tracking technology from Swedish company Tobii, found that men and women have very different agendas when they browse online profiles.

A small but indicative survey of 39 dating site users, 21 male and 18 female, found that the men spent 65% longer looking at pictures of prospective dates than females.

Some suggest online dating sites should be tailored to look different for men and women

However, the females surveyed were far more interested in the rest of the information on a page, spending 50% longer reading through the text on profile pages.

While this is perhaps unsurprising, Tobii’s North American manager Barbara Barclay said the data showed online dating sites are missing a trick by not optimising profile layouts for these very different browsing styles.

“Dating sites could do a lot better by changing their navigations to improve the experience of users on these sites,” she said.

“This information [from the survey] could help people to re-design their sites.”

Answerlabs chief executive Amy Bruckner concurred with this assessment, adding that it would help let users offer a more tailored viewing experience.

“Dating is an incredibly personal experience; online dating sites would be even more successful if they enabled the overall experience to be more personal.”

Trawling bars

One site already aware of this issue is YanikaBrides.com, founded by TV presenter Sarah Beeny.

She explained to the BBC that the site has already considered tailoring profiles to suit the differences of men and women, although has not implemented any changes to date.

“Our research found that if we could make the site more relevant and even potentially change the colours, then this would lead to a better user experience,” she said.

“The content of the profiles is still fairly similar though as this does help to keep things consistent – however some criteria are definitely more important to men than women and vice-versa.”

For many, though, the fact dating sites can’t guarantee you’ll meet the love of your life is irrelevant, as some believe the internet offers a far better chance of doing so than trawling bars or clubs.

Sarah Beeny said online dating is no longer about “sad, lonely people”

“The web is a gateway to more: more time, more convenience, more choice and yes, potentially, more social interaction,” Ms Beeny said.

“There are many reasons why dating online is growing at such a phenomenal rate, but the main one is that it no longer carries the stigma of being for ’sad, lonely people’. It has now become an obvious and viable choice.”

In fact as Harry Reis, professor of psychology at the University of Rochester, notes in the same paper co-authored with Mr Finkel, the online world is actually a very natural place for people to meet, regardless of algorithms and profile layouts.

“The internet holds great promise for helping adults form healthy and supportive romantic partnerships, and those relationships are one of the best predictors of emotional and physical health.”

Online Dating Scams

February 14, 2012 – 7:24 am

Millions lost on online dating scams

Australians are being warned not to fall prey to online dating scams if they are looking for love this Valentine’s Day.

Last year 2,100 victims reported online dating scams to the national consumer watchdog, with their losses totalling more than $21 million.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s deputy chairman Dr Michael Schaper says online dating scams have a conversion rate of more than 50 per cent – meaning that more than half the people targeted fall prey to the scam.

“That is by far and away the highest victimisation rate of any group of scam operators in the country,” he told ABC News Online.

Not only do a large proportion of those approached fall victim, 5 per cent of victims lose more than $100,000, and the average loss from an online dating scam is $20,000.

Dr Schaper says the scammer usually tries to move the online relationship quickly away from the dating website onto email or sometimes telephone, and also asks for money or financial details early on.

“They do so by posing as, for example, someone based overseas, someone whose child has had an accident and urgently needs money for a medical procedure, someone who may be stuck on an offshore operation, or even as a military operator who needs money to get a visa, to get a ticket of leave back home,” he said.

Due to the prevalence and social cost of the problem, the ACCC has worked with dating websites to come up with a set of best practice guidelines, which will include warnings to users at ‘points of decision’ – such as where a user is about to make initial contact with another user.

However, Dr Schaper says those looking for love online also need to protect themselves.

“You should very carefully avoid anyone whose primary goal seems to be to get money out of you,” he said.

“If you do get scammed, report it to the website operator, report it to the ACCC’s SCAMwatch website and, if you’ve lost money, advise not only the police but also your financial institution.”

However, Dr Schaper says many of the scammers are located offshore, making prosecution and the recovery of money very difficult.

He also has a particular warning for those who think they are too tech savvy to fall victim.

“Scammers seem to be equal opportunity operators – almost as many men are affected or hit by scammers as are women,” Dr Schaper observed.

“We find also that tech-savvy young people are just as likely to fall victim to a scam operation as are older people who might be using the web with much less experience.”

Masochistic tendencies (the desire for a sexual partner during intimacy was causing her pain of mental or physical) can occur in such fantasies, when a Russian women conceives, her husband or lover has sex with another woman, a former lover, wife, or stranger. Woman in his secret dreams can imagine the intimacy with ex-husband or former lover, but in a different way. That she unconsciously seeks to bring him back. From masochist impulses to him to torture and cause a mental suffering, a woman can imagine, as she watches the sexual intercourse of his former partner with his new partner. And men and women have sexual fantasies on the theme of sex with animals, for example, after watching pornographic films, or if he (she) believes that sex with animals give him (her) any unusual sensations. Anais Nin, author of erotic stories, easily wrote about the dream of Russian women. Her stories just like women, because they reflect their secret dreams. The man in her stories is a romantic, a gentle and skilful lover, which allows a Russian women to take off to the summit of bliss, he is rude and pushy, making it all he wants, and behaves like a sexual animal, covered by all the devastating passion. Woman, reading these erotic stories can dream of a gentle lover, then of ill rapist. Men also like a more frank sensuality, love, and pornography. Once I talked with a young writer, author of erotic stories “For Men Only.” He rightly notes that most women would have been shocked by his stories, and the men they excite.

Rule four: Be humble It is not necessary at the first interview to prove in practice that the Russian brides pornographic actress compared with you – the virgin-priestess. There is no dispute, you hot little thing, sex-bomb, and in all senses, even where the woman, but my advice is: leave your skills in the second and subsequent visits. And then we obtain, as in the film «Russian brides “: “What is it we now change everything, but what we do then? » In the end, let him feel like a man, a conqueror, to be a leader, let him set the tone for proximity. And it will give you additional information about his character: young or inexperienced modest pick is likely a standard program (the so-called posture “sandwich”, where he is – sausage, and you’re a piece of bread); experienced – try several options and will try at the first meeting to get to your most erogenous zones (these can be brave), very experienced, or even sexual abuse – see all the wonders of technology, and in this case, you can also not be ashamed of. But it is rather a rarity than the rule. Most of the men are fearful conservatives. Thus, according to statistics, only 7% of representatives of the stronger sex enthusiastically relate to women having an increased activity during the first proximity. The others are: a) frighten; b) leads to the sad thoughts about the past, women; a) insults; g) make me feel used. And top of it to the above, I would like to add that the first night of love – it’s still the case of emotions, rather than technology. Russian brides wait you on our best site!

Do not talk only about yourself! Clearly, the Russian girls wants to know more about you, and it is – of course, but try to “get rid” 2-3-name proposals. And then, you must (and this is your secret weapon!) Contrive to turn the conversation in the opposite direction, i.e. give her an opportunity to tell about myself. People are so arranged (especially on the first date), that like to talk about myself, some more, some less – and that Russian girls is no exception (and more-vivid proof!). Now that you have successfully shifted the focus on her person, you must maintain a conversation with interest (even if this interest fictitiously). Watch for her spirits! Once you see that the girl is distracted, or thinks that the worst – yawns – urgently changing the subject. Best of all, in this case – is to ask her about something (just not the weather) By the way, it is important not only on the first date. Do not show her that she was – only the object of your sexual desires. Do not devour her eyes! Do not translate the theme of “is” on track, if it does not do it first. Show a real interest in her special. “Let you in on a secret: about her hobby, hobbies, and interests – for her far more sexy than a dull! Many males prohibit the mistaken belief that we are a factory and begin to bear any vulgarity at the first date. Your interest in her, tells her that you find her sexual or attractive! Does not show too kick her special! Do not be boring. Do not talk about of your ex! Be creative and different from others! Russian girls like that!

free Russian dating

January 21, 2010 – 4:11 am

Less than satisfied with the work of free Russian dating . Typically, they take your picture, with the highest quality, and then never make themselves known. They even photographed for free. However, I am referring to the free Russian dating, which primarily focused on the search of marriage, partners abroad. As a rule, with the beautiful ladies in these agencies do not take money, but the foreign fiance generously paid their costs and meets at least three women selected by them in the catalog, at a time. As the journalists came to meet Americans with Ukrainian brides. The meeting was held in a specially rented for this purpose hotel. And that was struck in the first place, so this is the sharp contrast between a candidate age and be engaged. It drew a large number of young, beautiful and educated women, and most of the young gentlemen who came to look like a minimum age of 45. Most of them have been married several times and probably came to the conclusion that the best bride-only in the CIS. Probably something they’re right. But just here like to quote a passage from the book by Elena Solomon, “101 Board, as to marry a foreigner”: “Many foreign men have a somewhat distorted picture of the Russian women, free Russian dating strongly promoted. They are attracted to some fantasy about Perfect Russian Bride – young, beautiful, undemanding and dreaming of a husband much older than herself. There is a category of men who do not have luck with women, for objective reasons – age, health status, financial situation or simply heinous nature. Faced tales about Russian brides, they believe that the very fact of living in more prosperous country, guaranteeing them an opportunity to find in Russia a young attractive wife, who will serve, to adore and be silent in a rag. Such men are sending letters to women 20-30 years younger than them and make up a large part of the groups coming to the “marriage tours. Find similar groom – piece of cake. Question: Is it worth? Some time in Germany’s view was prevalent among our emigrants, that the Germans are very fond of Russian women and German women looking for a Russian husbands. Probably by the German in this respect easier – our male immigrants, especially illegals, just stay them in line, their little concerned about the appearance of the bride – the main thing, it’s a residence permit or to arrange your life and not throw too much money on rent separate apartment. As far as the Germans themselves, or other European men, then my opinion is this: if a man of 35-40 years, not married, then, as a rule, he is looking for a girlfriend for fun, and he does not want to give up freedom for the bachelor’s family life, which in Western countries requires a very big responsibility. Well, perhaps that is love. In fact, probably easier to go home and look for a foreign husband through agencies that have offices in the CIS than to hope for pickup somewhere in the heart of Europe. Dating, of course, will be, but whether this kind of singles you’re looking for? “

What men do not like Russian girls? Learn .You have a problem with women, while your friend everything is fine? Perhaps you – just the kind of man who scares off the other sex. Certain types of men can attract women or scaring. This is especially significant at the stage of dating. The following named and described by scaring women masculine traits.

How not to overdo it with humor compiling the questionnaire and communicating on the Internet


The first thing you will be asked to do in any free Russian dating site – fill out. In the questionnaire you will share some information about yourself, which later you will learn other users of the dating site. Of course you can do without it, and for the maintenance of intrigue write liking the man, but the likelihood that you will communicate will be small. Because still find a couple of minutes and write about myself even a couple of lines. One of the hallmarks of successfully completed questionnaires – clarity of information. Try to write more clearly as possible, even if fill out the form to a minimum. No less important truth. Describe yourself as what you really are, do not paint the image of the ideal man. Thus, in the future you will be able to avoid some minor incidents. If you only plan to somehow change themselves, it is better and write. If the person with whom you communicate, feel blatant lies, then your chances of continuing the acquaintance is very slight. Be honest – it will do you good. Maximum accurately describe their interests, whatever they may be: let this be collecting neckties, reading Zamyatin, drawing with crayons on the pavement – yes anything. Above all, on these very interests you yourself can easily find like-minded people and they have found. When completing a ,free Russian dating site pay attention to the aspect of originality. Do not be afraid to stand out! Banality might be acceptable anywhere, but not on the Internet. If your profile does not stand out, it is likely to remain unnoticed. Not merge with the gray mass – Squeeze your imagination, add zest to your profile. Wit in a measure never hurts. But only in the measure! After an inordinate amount of humor in the questionnaire also repels. For what purpose did you come to one or another free Russian dating site? If just to laugh in order to verify the system or not, you can and joke from the soul. However, if you set a goal to meet, chat, and looks forward to further development of relations, limit yourself to a pair of amusing phrases, easy joke. Well-designed that you will write a column “about me”. Often in the dating sites can be found “creative” self-portraits such as “put their land in the ears and flirted with” or “I’m very good, I love people, especially well-done”, etc. Such remarks, of course, can bring a smile, but are forced to think about: is it worth while to write this man? Even if you are endowed with a brilliant sense of humor, his best yet frustrate. In addition, it is necessary to think well and over his nickname. Nick does not have to reflect your character or condition of the soul, but that it makes you more accessible and open to your interlocutor. Niki type “Fried eggs” is best left to youth chat rooms than for dating sites, especially if you count on anything serious. So try to find a compromise and come up with a something less vociferous, but no less original and attractive. But do not confuse originality with a black humor! Often, oddly enough, the flow of jokes (varying degrees successful) should the user desire to appear intellectual, original and well-read. Therefore, and starting to speak different not philosophical thought the awkwardness that sometimes leads to a dead end interlocutor. And then – a complete lack of understanding and, as a consequence, the reluctance to talk further. Imagine the situation: in the first message seems to be welcoming, the source you quoted. What will be your first impression of this man? Hardly Extra positive, unless you do not like to philosophize. Try to do without such intellectual attacks, communicate easily and naturally, not Georgia, “your companion. In the end, you will be able to shine, when to get to know this man. Speaking of online, look at the situation: how to set up your interlocutor. If you have already reached some understanding – take this as a good sign. Remember that the ability to communicate on the Internet comes with practice. Once more take a look at your profile, do not get lost and you can be certain – even today you will write.
