Singles, make the most of traveling!

As we approach the holidays, many of you will be traveling.  Why not use it to meet some new potentials?  Here are some tips on how to do that!

RECONNECT
If you are traveling to a place that you have been before, think about the people you have already met there. Make an effort to reconnect with them while you are in town, even if there was no love connection the first time. You never know who you might meet through them. If they live in this town, they know lots of people and places to go where you can connect with others. Ask them to show you around or recommend some places that are good to hang out. Make sure you contact them well in advance of your trip so they can plan for you. Offer to take them out to lunch or a ‘coffee catch up’!
SEARCH
To meet NEW people, look up singles in the city you will be traveling to on Match.com or whatever dating site you are on, or free sites like Craig’s List or Plenty of Fish.

Respond to interesting Craig’s list ads for that location. Send messages to Match.com members that are located where you will be going and let them know you’ll be around for a brief time. Don’t forget to follow the safety measures when meeting people online!

Try MEETUP.com to see what activities or parties are happening in the area during the dates you are there and GO to something.
Make traveling a time to reconnect with old friends, meet new people and have some fun! You never know what can happen!

DATING: Do ALL Men want Sex?

I heard a male panel member recently tell a female audience that no man is going to stick around long if the woman he is dating is not having sex with him.  This was in response to a question about the 90-Day Rule on sex and another woman’s question about waiting to wait for marriage to have sex.  I knew that the gentleman was WRONG about a man leaving because I’ve dated men who are celibate and men who are looking for relationships (not JUST sex) and know a lot of men that are willing to wait.  In searching for panel members for my own “Straight from the Mouths of Men” I came across a man who said no woman has been able to resist his sexual advances (he’s slept with every woman that he has ever going out on a date with) and another man who is still a virgin and waiting for his wedding night.   These two men are the extremes/opposites and of course, lots of men fall in between these two views.  Come out and listen to their advice and dating stories tomorrow night 7PM.
