First date blues – tips for turning it around

After we've got to know our new date in the chat room, the time comes to meet. In the online dating world, things usually develop pretty nicely via emails and we can feel as though we know the person before we've come face to face with them.

But that's not always the case. Often, during an online chat , we can be whoever we want to be – we can be a whole lot more confident behind a keyboard than we can in that place some call the real world.

So, you're a bit shy. The single person you've just met is a little shy. You're meeting for a coffee in your favorite café, but you've run out of conversation really quickly… What do you do?

1. Swap coffee for a beer Finish that coffee quickly and suggest going out for a drink or for a stroll. Conversation can be easier with the ultimate of social lubricants – alcohol – but subtly make sure your date is someone who enjoys a drink. If your date is a teetotaler then…

2. Go for a stroll Take it out of the chat room (or rather, out of the café) and hit the streets. There's always somewhere you can take your date. Before meeting up, have a quick scan of the city guides and see if there are any art exhibitions or shows that look interesting, and keep them in your mind as a back-up. If you're not a city-dweller, you've got the option of a nature walk. Wherever you are, walking will get the blood moving, the brain buzzing and the conversation flowing.

3. Break the ice with honesty What have you got to lose? Just come right out and say how nervous you feel. Take a leaf out of Jonathan's book…Jonathan is a 24-year-old college graduate in between jobs. He ventured into the singles chat rooms because he was the shy type. He also had friends that had successful online dating stories, and thought he had nothing to lose.

"I met this great woman online," says Jonathan. We chatted every night for almost two weeks – we talked about everything. We both loved the same books and movies – crime thrillers – and we had similar experiences working our way through college.

Finally the day came to meet. I chose this great funky little African-style café that was atmospheric. But once I got there with my date, we were stuck for words. It was crazy, we were getting on so well in the singles chat rooms .

"So, I thought, 'What have I got to lose?'. It was so awkward so I just leant across the table and said, 'I think we're both a bit nervous…I know I am! This is the first time I've tried online dating."

"It worked. She looked at me said, 'Me too!' and we started talking about the free dating websites we've looked at and the people we've known and from there, our real life chat picked up from where our cyber-chat left off."

How to have a better relationship with your bf/gf?

I am aware that no relationship is perfect and that arguments do happen. But there are people out there that have close to a story book romance where they hardly argue and look like they are in love no matter how many years pass by. I have been dating my bf for 4 years and we love each other but it seems like we don't get along as good as we did in the beginning. How can I make our bond stronger?

I hope this makes sense.

After a long period of time couples most of the time get set in ways, and aren't as spontaneous, and carefree as in the beginning. Now as far as the storybook part, you can never compare your relationship to what you think you see, and are told, in another couples life. They can easily make the nightmare they are living seem picture perfect, but no one knows what goes on behind closed doors but the,. So bring some spontaneity back into your relationship, go out on dates, and don't get settled into too much of a routine it makes things well BORING...

Hope this helps.
Wishing you the best

Dating the Greek Gods $14.99 From the author of the highly successful and influential Finding the Boyfriend Within comes an inspirational guide for gay men seeking spiritual fulfillment. When Brad Gooch began promoting his self-help book Finding the Boyfriend Within, the first of its kind directed toward a gay readership, he was overwhelmed by the response it generated. Thousands of gay men embraced the book's message of looking into themselves to find comfort and purpose in life. So enthusiastic was the response to the book that Gooch began conducting workshops and, in the process, conceived Dating the Greek Gods as both a follow-up and a companion to the earlier book -- a self-help book designed as a sort of "advanced class" for readers of Finding the Boyfriend Within. Because of the conflicted reaction many gay men have to any discussion of religious spirituality, Gooch hit upon the idea of drawing on an older spiritual base -- that of Ancient Greece -- for examining and explaining his approach to achieving a higher understanding of self through spirituality. The stories of the Greek gods have inspired human consciousness for more than thirty centuries, the outgrowth of a society in which homosexuality was an accepted aspect of human behavior. Dating the Greek Gods explores these stories as well as the dominant characteristics of those Greek deities, tying the spirituality of being a gay male to the inner patterns -- or archetypes -- that shape men's personalities and personal relationships. Gooch organizes the book into a series of meditations and personal exercises shaped around the characters, stories, and dominant traits of the deities. For example, in chapter one, Apollo addresses wisdom; chapter two concerns Dionysus and deals with sexuality and disco nights; chapter three is about Hermes and concerns communication, and so on, from Hephaestos and Eros (creativity and romance) to Zeus (independence and freedom). Gooch delves into these enduring archetypes to show men how, by understanding the philosophy behind these gods, they can come to better understand themselves and, in the process, enrich their lives. Unique in its approach and totally accessible in its realization, Dating the Greek Gods is an enlightened and literary self-help book that encourages readers to turn to their own inner oracle -- the inner voice that prompted them to "come out" in the first place -- and in the process to revitalize themselves through viewing the world's spiritual traditions in a more inclusive and caring fashion.

Open Dating of Foods $119.95 Open dating plays a vital role in the distribution of the food products from the farm or place of manufacturing to the consumer's home. One principle is that the shelf life is a function of the distribution conditions and can be looked at as the percentage of consumers a manufacturer is willing to displease. Thus, one purpose of an open date is to give consumers enough time to purchase a food product and store it at home for a reasonable period of time before the product reaches the end of shelf-life in terms of some degree of quality change that is still acceptable. If products are not stored or rotated properly in distribution, then older products or those of lesser quality and perhaps compromised safety because of abuse during distribution chain and causing loss of confidence in the food category. Presently, the lack of uniformity among manufacturers and across state borders has made the practice of open dating confusing and misleading for consumers, retailers and the government. This book addresses these issues, and provides scientific and legal background to both evaluate and influence federally-regulated open-dating legislation in this country
