As a guy, dating can be hard. We are raised in a society where to be a man requires us to keep our emotions in check and to be the foundation for any relationship. This often leads to a lot of men having trouble expressing themselves properly. The key to all good relationships is expressing oneself and proper communication.

Because of this upbringing, it can be difficult for women to get a read on you. You may come off as heartless and insensitive to them, but in reality you are just trying to protect yourself from emotional hardships. On the flip side you could seem very charismatic and go on a lot of dates, but ultimately still feel lonely because you can not find the woman that you love.

These problems can make dating quite the problem for a lot of men, so it is no surprise why they go looking for ways to get past them. While there are a lot of tips and tricks you can try, it is also wise to try to stick to the basics as well.

1. It would be easier in all relationships if we could just be ourselves and look however we want. Unfortunately that is simply not the case, and appearance matters a great deal, especially when it comes to first impressions. So before you go on your date make sure you clean yourself up. Shave or trim your bear, fix up your hair, dress nicely for wherever you are going. You want to look the best you possibly can so that you can leave a positive, lasting impression.

2. Do not lay on the romance too thick. With all the movies out there making it seem like romance is some big affair, it can be troublesome. What you have to keep in mind is that before you can become lovers, you have to first become friends. So treat it as such. Get to know her and befriend her, and if you can hit it off as friends, then you can try to take it to the next stage.

3. Conversation is a huge factor in any relationship. People are not mind readers and unless you tell them, they wont know. So being a poor conversationalist can present a lot of problems for anyone trying to date. The main thing about conversations is that it is a give and take, if you never say anything, or never stop saying things, it is a bad thing. Make sure to give her a chance to speak, but also speak your piece as well.

4. One of the biggest bits of advice you can have is to always be a gentleman. Women love a man with confidence, but also kindness. They do not want you to throw your coat over a puddle for them, or treat them as inferior. They want you to treat them fairly and with respect. If you plan on having relationships work out, then you need to remember to be a true man and always hold yourself with high integrity.

The definition of pheromones is: chemical substances that are usually produced by an animal and serve especially as a stimulus to other individuals of the same species for one or more behavioral responses.

These substances are excreted by the body and are odorless. They are powerful though and play a large role in the continuation of the species. All animals secrete pheromones, especially insects. In humans, these substances are excreted through the sweat glands.

So, how do they work, exactly? These chemical substances have no scent but they, nevertheless, are detected through the nose. The VNO, or Vemeronasal Organ in the nose is the specific sensory organ that does the detecting.

How it works is: There are two small holes on either side of the septum in the nose with a mass of cells just beyond the holes. These cells are solely responsible for detecting when these substances are present. These cells in the nose then send a message to the emotion center of the brain, called the hypothalamus, triggering a sexual response in that person or other animal species.

You do not actually know this is happening inside your body although you could probably figure it out if you suddenly feel attracted to someone you are standing close to.

There is also a theory floating around that states that not only do these chemical substances attract the opposite sex but they also help you make friends as well. These odorless chemicals excreted into the air are the things that make someone feel comfortable around you and want to stay where you are.

It seems, though, that humans through evolution, can no longer produce enough of these chemicals to adequately attract the opposite sex. And it is further believed that the strong scents we use today in our deodorants and other personal car products can at least overpower our own production of these chemicals and at the most can even destroy what does get produced.

So, how do we fix this? Many companies have come out with synthesized versions of the naturally occurring chemicals in the form of sprays or colognes you can dab on before going out. The problem is that they usually do not work and are really a waste of your money.

The reason they do not work is the fact that everyone has their own unique chemical that they excrete and this cannot be mass produced because it will only work for one person, you.

If you want real results when trying to attract the opposite sex it would be your best bet to find a product that will help your body produce more of your own unique "scent". There are now herbal supplements, when taken as directed, will help your body do just that. You will be able to see the results for yourself after just a few doses of these herbal supplements.

Do some research online to find them and you will not be disappointed. Pheromones are extremely powerful and can definitely influence the sexual desires in others, so get to it.

There can be a lot said about finding a partner who you are compatible with. This can be good whether or not you are looking for a serious or a casual relationship. So, what do you look for when it comes to personalities in dating relationship?

Well for one thing, you want both of the personalities in dating relationship to be compatible. I never ceased to be amazed at the things people will say to justify a very obviously doomed relationship.

Too many people (ones who I would consider to be very immature) seem to mistake a lack of compatibility and the resulting stress and tension in a relationship as some sort of "passion".

I don't mean to be offensive, but how dumb is that? Fighting, arguing and bickering isn't passion. It's a lousy, stress filled mess that will only implode eventually. Sorry to be blunt, but that's the truth whether or not anyone wants to believe it or accept it.

So, how can you increase your odds of having a healthy, fun, easy relationship? Simple, get involved with someone you are comparable with. This should be really easy, or hard depending on your point of view. But if you don't really know who you are you can't pick someone who you are compatible with.

Most of us, to some level or another, aren't really that honest with ourselves about who we are and what issues we may have. If you have been hurt at some point in your life (and who hasn't?) then you must face those hurts and issues head on.

That is the only way to get rid of them forever. It will take some time and it will cause some level of pain, but it is the only way to make absolutely sure you don't keep dragging the same baggage and issues with you from one relationship to another.

When you don't deal with these issues you will not only have them keep coming up and hurting you, you will also inadvertently attract other wounded people. Have you ever wondered why that great friend who you love only seems to attract losers?

We all have friends or family members like that. They can be great looking and have a great personality but for some reason they are unlucky in love and only seem to attract people who aren't right for them and will eventually hurt them. Why is that?

Is it just bad luck? No, it's because that great person, on some level, has some issue or belief that they are unconscious projecting. When they project these beliefs or issues they will attract someone who is looking for that type of person.

Put another way, if someone has had some experience that makes them feel (way down deep in a place they aren't even aware of) that they don't deserve to be happy they will attract those type of people who like to take advantage of others.

The bottom line is this: take time to honestly and openly evaluate the person you are and the subconscious signals you are giving off before you set out to find someone special. Doing that will help you ensure that personalities in dating relationship are compatible personalities.

Today, it is easier than ever to find someone to date. Whether you are only looking for a casual dating partner or a potential life long partner, you have many options in the online dating world.

Trying to sort through all those options can sometimes be the real challenge. In this article I will provide you with a few tips and techniques that will make it easier to hone down the list of sites so you can find the perfect one for you and your needs.

Once you've picked out the best online dating for you, I will give you some ideas of the best way to fill out your profile to maximize your chances of finding that someone special.

OK, first things first: finding the right site. Before you fire up your laptop you need to take a little time and carefully define what type of relationship you want. If you are at the stage in your life where you are actively seeking a life long mate, you will want to choose a site that caters to that type of people.

There is no point in wasting everyone's time by filling out profiles for the wrong type of site. When you have a few options in mind (sites that cater to others who are looking for the same type of relationship) you should take a few minutes to look over the profiles to make sure they have people you may be interested in.

A few years ago a friend of mine had just gotten over a 25 year marriage and wanted to start dating again. She joined one of those famous sites that you see advertised on t.v. but she found out, after the fact, that there only 3 members who actually lived close enough to her to date.

You don't want that to happen so try to find out how many people in your area are on any given site before you actually join. Some sites will restrict your level of access until you join. In some cases you can set up a very basic profile and that will be enough for you to be able to look over the profiles of the other members.

Other than that, you may have to actually join, but remember that many sites have a money back guarantee. Make sure you check that out before you actually sign on the dotted line.

Once you've joined you will need to set up your profile. Take some time doing this because this is the first impression people will have of you. Be honest, don't lie. It's ok to play up your strong points, but don't make them up.

When you do meet someone and you decide to meet in person, keep safety in mind. Don't assume that these dating sites screen people… they don't. Always meet in a public place and take your own transportation.

Never give out ultra personal information until you've gotten to know someone better. Telling them what you do for a living is fine, telling them where you work – not so much.

Today the stigma of online dating is gone. More and more people are realizing that this can be a safe, easy and less stressful way to meet people. Good luck.

Online dating has become a huge hit over the past few years. There are so many couples out there who met over the internet, got married, and live happily together. It provides an easier, and more reliable alternative to bar hopping or speed dating or something.

However, even though it offers a lot of benefits a lot of men do not use it, or if they do use it they will give up quickly. These online services do work, yet so many men fail to make use of them and end up throwing in the towel early.

If you are looking for the woman of your dreams you have to be persistent. Few things work on the first go and it is all about patience and determination. There is the saying that there are plenty of fish in the sea, well a lot of guys should know that fishing is about patience and waiting for the best catch. But even if it is about patience, there are some tips you can use to catch a big one and that applies to your online profile as well.

1. Be unique. Continuing the fishing metaphor, a lot of guys try to use very basic bait that they think will appeal to a wide variety of potential catches. The problem with this is that it makes you seem like a boring guy that women do not want.

Instead, decide what kind of woman you want and aim for that. Be honest about yourself but tailor it to appeal to them. It does not matter if you are turning away other women if those are not the kinds of women you are interested in.

2. Be confident. When using online dating it can seem like it would be difficult to come across as a confident man, but it really isn't. How you word things plays a huge role in whether you are perceived as confident or weak and insecure. Do not use self-defeating lines like "You probably will not respond." or "I hope to hear back from you". Be confident in what you say.

3. Stay positive. Even if you are lonely or feel you are not worth a great woman, do not put these types of things in your profile, ever. Instead be positive in your profile, even if you do not believe it, simply typing out that you are a great guy with a lot to offer can have a positive effect.

4. Use interesting subject lines. The thing about online dating is that no matter how great you are, if the woman does not open your message nothing will happen. Attractive, worth-while women probably get dozens of messages a week, so if you use some generic title like "hi there" it will likely get tossed in the trash right from the start.

You should use unique titles to draw her attention. Give specifics, say how a certain aspect of her profile caught your eye or something to pique her curiosity so that she will actually look at your message.

Sometimes wading through all the testosterone laced egos can be quite a challenge when trying to get boyfriend. All you want is someone to make you feel special and love you for who you are. There are some ways that I would like to show you that will make this process a little easier.

The first thing you have got to do is make sure you have the right mindset to get boyfriend. If you have been hurt in the past, have you done the work to make yourself marketable again? If you have then you can proceed but if you have done nothing to help yourself then you are in no shape to be finding someone new because someone, mainly you will only repeat the cycle and find yourself in the hurt column again.

You must find the stability and self esteem within yourself and learn to be strong on your own before becoming part of a couple. No one can give you any of these things but you. Not your parents, not your siblings and certainly not a boyfriend.

When you feel strong and confident in yourself then go ahead and make a list of the qualities you like in a boy. Is he cute? Respectful? Make you laugh? Smart? And, does he know where he is going in life? This last one may be optional given the age of the boy and if you are all still in middle school and high school.

The best way to attract the type of boy you really want is to show off your best traits. He will be attracted to how smart you are and if you carry yourself well. You may be smart but do not ever be condescending to him or anyone. This will only come off as arrogance and that is a total turn off.

Once you have found the boy you want to date, take an interest in the things he does. If he plays football or basketball, go to his games and cheer the loudest. Then ask him to walk you home after the game.

If you think that this is too bold a move for you then you could always ask one of your friends to give him the heads up that you like him. Be careful here though, if you do not have the nerve to speak to him face to face and your friend does then he may get interested in her and not you. It is best to handle these situations on your own.

If you are older (not in high school anymore), start actually looking around at work for anyone who may have his eye on you or you think you may be interested in and start a dialogue with them. Invite him out for coffee or lunch.

Find other ways to meet men besides going to bars and night clubs. Some relationships have stood the test of time when the couple met in a bar but not too many do and you need to know that the man you are interested in is interested in more than partying. Unless, of course, that is all you are interested in as well.

Following these tips should help you get boyfriend when you are ready. Make your list of favorite traits that you find attractive in men and try to get as close as you can to matching all of them. You won't match them all but try to get as close as you can. If nothing else works, join an online dating service.

For a long, long time dating has been a tricky process. Once you get out of high school and college, meeting women was difficult at best. It seemed bar hopping was about the only option you had. Now days, with the mainstream use of the internet you can find your soul mate without even having to leave the house.

Online dating services are widely popular and a lot of couples meet through them and get married. Despite the success rate of these services, many guys give up and end up not meeting anybody. It is not that the service does not work, it is that you may not be doing everything you can.

The biggest reason guys fail at these online services is because they are not use to using them. This newness means it is easy to make mistakes, to prevent these mistakes and increase your chance for success there are several tips you should try out before throwing in the towel.

1. Be unique. This is one big flaw a lot of guys make, they try to appeal to everyone. All this does is make you come off as some boring guy that nobody really cares about. Instead of doing that, make your profile about you. Think about the kind of woman you want to be with and tailor your profile towards what that type of woman might be looking in a guy.

Do not lie or anything, since obviously they will find out if you are lying. But wording things in such a way as to attract their attention is never wrong. Just be honest about yourself and women who are interested in that type of man will be willing to give you a shot.

2. Be confident. Women are, for the most part, attracted to confident men. The key to these online dating services is to make yourself come off as a confident guy with a lot to offer. The way you do this is by being careful how you word things. Women do not want a needy, insecure guy so by starting with an opening line like "You probably wont respond.." or "I'm not sure you care.." will just turn them off.

Instead, use confidence, show that you are worth her time and that she can either talk to you or you will go find someone else. Do not sound like an arrogant jerk, but make sure she knows you have something to offer.

3. Stay positive. People can pick up on vibes, even through the internet. The way you word things can tell her volumes. When using online dating services you need to make sure you sound upbeat and positive. Even if you are depressed or feel like this is hopeless, never let her catch onto this.

Instead, fill your profile with positive lines. You have something to offer, everyone does, so put that out there. Do not let negativity drag you down or influence what you are putting into your profile. No matter how lonely or sad you may be, never ever say it out loud (or type it).

The image of a soldier standing valiantly to protect their home country is one that resonates with a lot of people. Of course, it's also true that most people will picture a man in the role of that soldier, but such thinking is simply behind the times in most countries. Even so, dating service women has a strong appeal to a lot of men, and for various reasons.

It wasn't all that long ago–in the bigger scope of things–that women in the military were more of a rarity. For that reason, more and more men are wondering about the ins and outs of dating service women. Here are some things to keep in mind if you would like to be romantically involved with a woman in uniform.

Going out with an enlisted woman comes with some challenges that aren't a problem when dating civilian women. Heck, they're not even thought of as "civilian women" by most people. Does that mean you shouldn't go out with a woman who is in the military? Not at all. While there may some differences, it's fairly easy to work around them when you're aware of them.

The main thing you should know is that active military personnel can be called up to serve anywhere around the world at a moment's notice. It may not be a pleasant thought, but as long as you know it's a real possibility, it will easier to deal with should it happen. If it does happen, then you need to be supportive of them. Remember, they will be dealing with a lot of things at the same time, so anything you can do to make that easier will be appreciated.

Even if she is never called up to serve oversees, she will probably be moved to a different military base every few years. If you want to be dating service women, then you need to keep that in mind. How serious of a relationship do you want? Will you be willing to move around with her? Will she want you to? What about having a long distance relationship?

Asking questions ahead of time is a good idea. If you plan on it being a casual relationship, that's fine, as long as both of you are aware of that. But if it's getting serious, then you should talk about the different things that could happen, and have a plan of action in place if any of them should happen.

Dating service women isn't entirely different from dating any other women, though. While the military is often associated with being tough, and masculine; most military women like to feel feminine. You can do a lot to help them feel that way if you are going out with them. Romance is the key. Take them out dancing, have a nice romantic dinner or buy them flowers every now and then. Anything you can do to make them feel special will be appreciated. Keeping all of these things in mind will you to have a much better time when you're seeing each other.
