2 Fantastic & Creative Ways to Ask a Girl Out

By Mary Bush

So there is this lady you really fancy and you'll like to ask her out on a date. But wait a minute! Do you know that the way you ask a lady out can either ruin things for you or seal the deal?

If a lady senses that you would be an exciting person to hang out with, the chances are that she would definitely say 'yes' to a date with you. So your challenge is to show her how intriguing you are, starting from the way you ask her out. Here are two great suggestions to help you:

1. Send her a personalized invite - Just imagine her opening up what she thinks is a party invitation, just to discover it's an invitation to a candle light dinner for two. You could also put in a poem or add a rose to increase the thrill. Then just seat back and get ready for 'the' phone call.

2. Use the Media - The first time I saw this tip in action, it was used by my friend Mark. Mark liked Joan, and wanted to ask her out. One night he got one of their friends to call her up and ask her to listen to something interesting on radio. Joan turned on her radio, and a few minutes later, Mark called in to the radio program to say how much he liked her, and also to ask her out on their first date. The whole school was buzzing the next day, and as you've probably already guessed Joan said 'yes'!

Apply either of my suggestions, throw in a twist or two, and you are sure to get a big 'YES!' to your question. Now the ball is in your hands, go ahead and plan out a date she'll never forget. - 15784

Experiences of a Mystery Shopper

By Jane Swanson

Although I do work full-time and make a somewhat decent living, I still live paycheck to paycheck. Everyday expenses of living are constantly on the rise but my hourly wage is not.

About a year ago, I decided to look into how to become a secret shopper. I wasn't sure exactly what a secret shopper actually did and if it was even something that would be possible. It only took me about ten seconds to find a ton of sites on how exactly I could become a secret shopper.

Many of the sites offered advice but explained that the best way to become a secret shopper was to pay a small fee to register for a service who in turn, helps you find reputable companies that want people to secret shop for them.

Naturally, I hesitated. Why should I pay a fee just to learn about working opportunities for a mystery shopper? Every web site offered arguments why this was reasonable, but I wasn't convinced.

After doing some research on those web sites to get an idea of if they were scams or not, I ended up paying a small fee (less than 30 dollars) to get that list of job opportunities.

Once I had decided to pay my fee and become a secret shopper, I then had to register on each and every company site that was now available to me. That entire process took an entire day and was a huge nuisance. It seemed to be entirely too much work for the amount of money I might earn if I was able to become a secret shopper.

I had hoped I would get to shop in clothing stores and keep what I'd purcased. This didn't happen in my case, there were no such opportunities open to me.

Granted, I do live in a rural area but last time I checked, we have some major department stores and lots of businesses. I had a few chances to eat some meals in one of my favorite restaurants and get reimbursed for the meal. I didn't earn any money on top of the reimbursements but a free meal is always worthwhile to me.

Well, I finally did make a little bit of extra money. But I really don't feel that my experience as a mystery shopper was very lucrative. Probably I will not bother to do it again - although I do appreciate an occasional free meal! - 15784

What to Do If He Wants to Leave You

By Mary Bush

It is hard to believe that perfect love can be over, right? It is hard to believe that some month ago you talked about marriage, looked for perfect rings and now what. Now you have the feeling that the sun is covered by a huge, black cloud. You feel that he goes away from you for no reason without even having the courage to tell he wants to leave you, to start a new life without you. You feel that everything around you is falling apart, you feel helpless, because you say there's nothing that can be done.

Just think again: there's always something to be done. You are a fighter and do not give up easily. It does not matter he is going away - many times men do not know what to do, they have their strange moments when they feel the need to act quickly. Too quickly sometimes"they do not even analyze the situation and go away out of a relationship, for the silliest of reasons. It is the moment for you to be strong, to face him and talk to him seriously.

Tell him that, even he didn't say anything, you feel him drifting away and having this wish to give up your relationship. Ask him to be mature enough, that he needs in such situation, to tell you the truth"to tell you what the problem is"or problems maybe. You are not teenagers anymore and hiding behind a brick wall is not the solution.

Also, tell him you deserve to know the truth and it would be unfair to leave you without an explanation He shouldn't mistreat you, shout to you for whatever reason, hide from you or reject you.

Talk about the problem, do it in a responsible way and draw a conclusion. Do you still have a future together? If yes, what are the compromises?

If he deserves the effort, only you can decide about it. Think if it is worth suffering beside a man that is with you for habit only (or for some benefits) or if it is you, who needs to start fresh, look for a new beginning. Do not forget - you are strong and your life doesn't revolve around one man. - 15784

Advice on Dating a Younger Man

By Mary Bush

If you are looking for advice on dating a younger man, you should know that you are not alone. In fact the number of women dating younger man has increased tremendously.

Why is it when men date younger women, society gives him a wink and an "attaboy" pat on the back, but when a woman dates a younger man everyone around her seems so eager to hang the scarlet A around her neck? Has our society changed yet to where this double standard no longer exists? It depends on the couple. It depends on the gulf between their ages and what each party is looking for in this relationship.

Since women mature sexually much later in life than men, dating a younger man can make sense. But how young is too young? Obviously, both parties must be legal adults. You could face possible jail time if you don't adhere to this advice on dating a younger man!

But if you are both legal age, how old is too old? How young is too young? It depends on the individuals. Do you share the same interests? Does he intellectually stimulate you or is it just a physical thing? If what you two have is merely physical, you already know this relationship is temporary.

What do your friends and family think about the relationship? Sometimes your friends and family can be more objective than you can. If they are all saying the same thing, maybe they are seeing what you cannot or will not. Is he only using you to gain "experience" with women or does he truly have feelings for you? Perhaps you are mutually using each other. Do you trust each other when you are apart?

Is it possible for an older woman and younger man to have a strong, beautiful relationship? If the age difference doesn't bother either of you and you are both in this relationship because you care about each other and can both flourish in this relationship, go for it. If your relationship can withstand the critical remarks made by people who don't understand, go for it.

The road to any good relationship is not an easy one. All relationships take a lot of work and both parties involved need to be willing to do what it takes. But if you build your relationship on communication, trust and love, it will blossom into a thing of beauty. This is the best advice I can give on dating a younger man. - 15784

Capturing the Perfect Profile Photo in Online Dating

By Ada Denis

If you are one of those people who don't want to through the trouble of blind dates where you have to put on that killer look and smile, or that fancy dress, then online dating is for you. In online dating, all you need is computer with internet connection and the confidence to meet someone online. The advantage of online dating is you can do it right in the comfort of your own abode, making it relatively easy to converse with someone online. But before you get notice in online dating, you must have that perfect profile photo. The first thing your prospect notices in your profile is your picture.

The trick in having that captivating picture is the element of lighting and angle. Have somebody take a picture of you in a more ambient surroundings. Day light or sunlight disperses evenly in the skin. Dark background creates unwarranted shadows. The secret in having a perfect lighting background is choosing a light and cover it with something that can diffuse the light uniformly in your face, giving a soft not dark effect. Using white satin fabric or paper wax around the light can create such effect. Having a friend take a picture of you prevents blurry and distorted photos. Remember, holding the camera right in front of your face makes your nose look bigger than it usually is.

The last thing you need is to look like Pinocchio's sister or brother. People, you should know your perfect angle. Take time to practice in the front of the mirror. When you have your picture taken, angling your face to one side can produce a more stylish and aesthetic look than a full front portrait. Leaning forward eye level can also hide that double chin. And for all the ladies out there, a word of wisdom, men want it natural. So, let your hair down, you look more feminine and sexy and consider toning down on the make up, a dab of powder, a light blush and a soft lip-color is enough.

Too much make up ages you and give you that unnatural look. If you are perfectly flawed, there are ways to hide them. Taking the photo at an higher angle can conceal those double chin, huge nose, thick neck, wide shoulders. If you have that straight figure, bending one of your elbow and knees can generate more curves. If you want to look taller, taking the photo from a lower angle can lengthen your legs, giving you that desired model height you always wanted. Now that the perfect angle and lighting is settled, let focus the lens in the right outfit.

Black is always in- everybody looks good in black. Your hair color and your skin tone defines what color suits you best. For example dark-haired looks better in deep warm tone like red, pink, yellow or gold are some of the few colors to consider. While red-heads looks better in the tones of green or blue. These are just some few suggestions, it's always better to wear something that makes you feel you own the universe. If you feel confident within it will exude in your portrait. Also, avoid looking like a porn star; wear something decent. Wearing your lingerie is okay if you want to attract perverts online.

But if you want to be taken seriously, wear something that leaves some imagination in the online dating community. Pictures truly speak a thousand words- so be natural, be confident, be yourself and capture that moment. - 15784

How to Meet the Beach Girls

By Mary Bush

If you have ever been to the beach, you must have seen beautiful and attractive girls who are based there. They are called beach girls and they are usually a pleasant site to always look at. First, the beach girls challenge all women to get into shape so that they can wear the sensational bikinis that look so great when you are considering hitting the beach scene. They are a major attraction on the beach. It becomes paramount to think about how they have perfect bodies that are a sensation. All ladies would like to have such bodies. They are not just more healthy but amazingly attractive to all. Most holiday makers will not look forward to visit the beach because they feel their bodies are not fit enough. Ladies usually want to look their best but, this is usually not the case.

Because of the busy lifestyles, more women have become ignorant and may be too busy to keep in shape. Therefore, after years of neglect of their bodies, they will feel ashamed to wear something cute to the beach. However, if you are a lady wishing to reverse this, you need to make up your mind and know what you want.

There are several things you can do if you want to have the body of beach girls. First, if you have decided to get into shape, this is the best place to start. You will not stop here because this is just the beginning. You need to have in mind the pictures of beach girls so that you can know exactly what you want in this regard.

Love Makes Life Perfect Christmas Gifts for Your Boyfriend

Reasons to choose Russian women for online dating

By Ada Denis

You are in the prime of your life, have a fantastic job, a nice home and are basically leading a rewarding and enjoyable life! But still, there is something missing. Despite being seen as good relationship material by most of your friends, you are surprisingly still single. You can't help but wonder sometimes if there is something "un-dateable" about you. Is it your hair, or maybe how you dress? Maybe it is those new shoes that you just picked up? Well, your anxiety is completely understandable and if it makes you feel any better, there are lots of others just like you who are facing the same dilemma.

You know what the simple solution is? All you require is a reliable dating service. Why not try this modern and very popular way to find your life partner? There are scores of other men who are finding their perfect matches through dating services. You just need to broaden your horizons, open up your mind to the possibility and think of dating services like your friends. After all, it is only through friends that you meet potential women to date, right?

Now that you are learning to think in a different way, why not take one more step further? Why stick to only women from the US, when the woman of your dreams may live in any other country of the world? Without online introduction services you would never meet her, but now it is more than possible. Without a doubt, there are no borders with online dating. Make an attempt and with a little luck you will find your perfect match, no matter if she lives ten miles or ten thousand miles away from you.

While you chew on this little piece of wisdom, a good direction to look is towards Russia. No, we are not asking that you to fly there immediately. We are talking about are Russian women. Why? They have so many wonderful characteristics that will delight and charm you for sure. First of all, Russian women are exceptionally beautiful - nobody knows why exactly, but it's a fact. Have you forgotten drooling over Anna Kournikova and Maria Sharapova? Be honest, you were more interested in their form than their game. But, they are not models, they are just tennis players. In Russia they are considered to be just regular girls, not beauties, because there are thousands of young women who are even more beautiful.

The other reason is that Russian women are more eager to play a women's traditional role within the family. It's just in their culture. They are raised to be family oriented. That's why your Russian match will go the extra mile to make your relationship work. Although Russian women are aimed to build a family, marriage is not always obligatory. In this sense they are the same as American women.

One more benefit of Russian culture is that Russian women have no prejudice when it comes to marriage with a foreign man. It doesn't matter if the guy is Canadian, European, Australian or American, they will accept their husband's country with open arms and do their best to become a part of this new culture. It is no wonder that Russian international dating sites are full of young, intelligent and tender women who are eager to meet an American man. So, imagine the delights that Russia holds for you then.

Can't wait to get started huh? Are you anxious to know how? Firstly I advise you not to try any of the toll free sites, because they may be your direct ticket into heartache and trouble. You can never be fully certain of the authenticity and credibility here. Avoid anything that seems to be too good to be true. Instead, it is much wiser to invest in a paid dating service as this gives you security and scam protection along with just the right girls according to your profile. Try to find an agency that has offices both in the States and in Russia and that was established over ten years ago. Agencies that have offices here and abroad are gems. I know it seems logical but you'd be surprised how few agencies actually have offices in America. All problems solved? Not exactly-you don't speak Russian. The answer is the same - choose one of the paid dating services, which provide not only security but quality translation as well. Their interpreters are specially trained to help you express your feelings and represent yourself in the most favorable light. Choose an agency that offers not only translation services but also, customer support, phone translation services, and other amenities- they tend to be more reliable.

As far as the sites are concerned, your choices fall from an all-English one to an all-Russian one. But my own experience shows that your best bet would be the one that is handled by mixed Russian-American management, such as Anastasia International, where I met my wife, as then you will get the best of both worlds.

Sometimes logging on to some sites can change your life. Like this article for instance - now you have a completely different option and perspective. So go on to another one and meet the girl of your dreams who will change your life forever. - 15784

What to Know Before Buying Engagement Rings

By Mary Bush

Engagement rings are one of those things that must be done right the first time, because there just might not be a second chance. No undo, no take backs.This isn't a plant or a coffee table, something that would be replaced or returned, this is the item - displayed for all to see from now until eternity.She's worth it? Right? Of course, or we wouldn't be having this conversation!So what do you get someone who's going to be keeping one of those engagement rings for the rest of her life?You want her display to the rest of the world that she's "off the market", taken, unavailable.

There are many sizes, styles, and colors of engagement rings, of course. And how do you know the size? One way is to print off a ring sizing sheet, and when the house is empty - find a ring finger ring worn currently in the last few weeks and slip the sizing sheet inside it, mystery solved.It's been recommended that engagement rings not be put in food or other unique items, as common sense would indicate, as the retrieval of such would be less than romantic if things went awry.Years ago, a friend of mine went to the trouble of having the nicest of engagement rings placed in a custom chocolate Easter egg, and when the time came, she said she wasn't hungry! (not knowing what was inside of course).

They're still married with count 'em - 6 kids.A girl often measures the amount of love her man has for her, in addition to how well he knows her, by the size and style of the engagement ring.Her status is also measured by her peers and others of her species in the female animal kingdom by the size and quality of said engagement ring. Primitive, I know, as sophisticated the women are supposed to be these days... but big shiny expensive objects bring out their animal instincts. (Flowers sent to her employment also fall into this category).As much as you want to impress her, you must stay in your means.

Starting a new life off on the right foot may be a big key to a happy life.Presenting your best choice of all the engagement rings you could find is an entirely different adventure all on its own...Classy is always a good way to go, cheesy or un-thought-out, could insult her and hurt your chances, or potentially annihilate it altogether.Unless you are absolutely certain it's something she would really like.

A surprise 'party' engagement is included in the potentially-hazardous-idea department. She might say yes in front of a crowd, but recant later.If you're not completely 100% convinced, stay with classy - nice restaurant, good food or even better a candle-lit dinner at home (You cook, or order in HER favourite), for "no" interruptions, shut the phones off.So what's an example of cheesy? Let's put it this way...this isn't the time to go to the football game, scarf down some hotdogs and plaster the proposal on the jumbo-tron.Everyone's engagement rings' proposal evening is like a mini-wedding- it's all about her, what she likes all the way around.Remember, how special she feels at the moment of proposal (or not) and the engagement ring, will carry with her (and you) throughout the rest of her, and your, lives. - 15784

By Jason King

So you've found the perfect online dating site. Now what? Online dating has become a method of meeting someone for millions of singles worldwide. For a lot of individuals, it has proven to be rewarding and fun. On the other side of the coin, many singles have ben victims of fraudsters and liars. It doesn't matter how long you've been using an online dating service there are some things you should never forget.

Never give out all your personal information. Basics such as your age, gender and location are normal to give away. Other information such as your address and phone number should be kept private until you feel you have net someone you can trust.

Most singles you'll meet online will be honest, but you could bump into someone who isn't, and is just after someone for financial gain, and you could be that person. When you meet someone don't give away all the information about yourself in one go, give a little and receive a little. Holding back a bit of information will also create some attraction in you. This will not only add a thrill to your conversations but will also make you more intriguing, and make them keep coming back for more. Always be yourself, online dating is pretty much the same as dating face-to-face. Don't try and be someone you're not just because they can't see you. Everyone can spot a faker. Besides, it's easier to be just your pleasant true self. Remember, first impressions last.

After you've been chatting to someone for a while, or swapping emails, even text messages, and you're ready to meet them in person, what next? Your first date should be somewhere quiet. Find somewhere comfortable where you're going to feel relaxed. Make it a group date, or bring along a friend if it makes you feel safer.

Don't overdress for the first date. Something simple and comfortable will be more than enough, but at the same time, don't under dress. A lot of people still get the flutters on a first date, which is pretty normal. Forget about trying to make everything perfect. Have fun and be yourself. A first date often indicates whether there's chemistry and compatibility among a couple. If things turn out well then maybe you can meet again at a later time and place.

If you feel that the date didn't go well then don't pretend there will be another date. Be honest at the very least and let the other person know if he or she should expect to hear from you soon. When it comes to your decisions, be smart with them. Make new friends, hook up with someone. The dating world is a fun place to meet new and interesting people. Stay safe and have fun! - 15784
