Interracial Dating Online by BRIAN SMITH

Interracial Dating
Have a Photo
In this day and age of online dating a photo is a
must. Posting an up to date photo is also
essential.
Make sure it's nice, clear and flattering. But
not too flattering. You want to look like the
person in the photo when you actually meet your
date. You don't want one where it's dark and hard
to see what you look like. Make sure it's bright
and close up with just your head and shoulders in
the picture. The better the quality of your photo
the more response you will get.
It's the first thing anyone will look at.
Your profile is selling you
Remember your profile is selling YOU. What would
you want to read in a profile that would make
that single stand out from the rest? Try out more
than one dating site. Vary your profile a little
bit in each one and see which gets the most
responses. Remember, you are paying for the
privilege to post your profile and get to know
eligible singles. Make your profile reflect this.
Take your time
Take your time when creating your profile. This
will make you look like a more serious online
dater as well. There's no point in rushing it. It'
s there to be clicked on, not ignored.
Refine your profile
Go back to your profile once in a while. Refine
it with subtle changes. You might go back to it
one day and say "Did I right that about myself!"
A small change could make the difference in
getting more attention. So use these online
dating profile tips and take your time and put a
bit of forethought into it, and then you will...

The First Steps to Dating Online -By Joe Davidson

Dating Online
For many newcomers taking the first step into online dating may be daunting. With all the online dating services that are available now, how do you choose which is best for you? How do you get started? What's the best approach for messaging? What do you put in a profile? How do you guarantee your own safety? What are the best strategies for successful online dating? These are just a few of the questions new online daters face all the time. But with a bit of advice, practically everyone can find success in online dating. Here are a few brief tips:

One of the most important things for newcomers to dating online is which service to use. The first step in making this decision is to determine the specific needs that should be met by the dating service, and find websites that cater to those needs. For example, while some dating services cater specifically to casual encounters, some are designed to make matches for serious relationships only, while a few target people who are looking specifically for someone to start an affair with. Other important things to look for are price. For many people just starting out, free sites can be a good introduction to the online dating world that doesn't involve a financial commitment. It's also a good idea to browse around and see if the members who are already signed up for the site share similar tastes and interests.

Once an online dating service is selected, it's time to get started on creating a profile. Needless to say, profiles are a very important part of online dating. Members of online dating services find out about each other, and decide if they want to introduce themselves, based on the information in a profile. Because of this, its important to make a positive, truthful impression by keeping the information light and inviting. A good rule of thumb is to avoid any negative information in a profile whatsoever. The most important thing to include in a profile is a clear, smiling picture that focuses on the member's face.

After completing a profile, users can start messaging other members. The key to messaging is to make messages personable, friendly, and make it evident that the profile of the person being sent the message has been read. It's crucial to make the recipient feel as though the message sender is actually interested in them, rather than being one of many people who has been messaged. Respond to specific aspects of their profile and keep the message light and friendly. Also, remember to ask a question in the message to give the person something to respond to.

Finally, safety is one of the most important issues in online dating. It's crucial to remember not to include any personal or private information in the profile. Never divulge personal information like credit card numbers to anyone, and keep information like home address, email address and phone numbers confidential until you're completely comfortable and ready to. Meeting someone in person should also only be done with caution. Meetings should take place in public spaces, with all necessary precautions taken.

Actions for Reconciliation of Friends


There is a sad tendency loosing touch with people as time goes by so older people seem to have less friends. Of course the reason of that is not death of people its more like time erases them from our hearts. The problem is that people just don’t seem to try to save relationships or put at least any effort into saving them, of course it is much easier to let everything go itself and let friendship be ruined with time or distance. According to survey results the relationships which were acquired during college years are the strongest ones. Also it is estimated that separation of people is the most spread reason of depression, solitude and low level of life.

If two friends don’t speak to each other for a long time and one of them wants to restore their relationships the first thing he has to do is analyzing what could bring them to that point. Everyone’s character changes with time that’s why normally friendship can’t be perfect all the time. There can be very many reasons of break down like different points of view on important questions, moral principles, relationships with other people and their influence or simple a negative attitude caused with a bad mood. These reasons can be absurd and childish but situation gets very serious when it is anything connected with personal values or treachery. The starting point of connecting two people is finding major reasons of break down because further actions depend only on them.
After the causes were determined it’s time to find right words and manner to motivate both sides to resolve their confrontation. A person needs to realize that it’s not a time for finding mistakes or taking one’s side, he has to think impartially and logically. It is of great importance to what was the biggest offense of each side and then use it during the conversation as a target to alter the conviction of the friends.

Labors of Love


When writing romance, there comes a point in many stories where our characters' love is put to test. It may be that they have to dodge temptation, or that they have a task to perform, which results in proving their commitment. Whatever the case may be, we look forward to finding out the characters' reactions and what happens after the challenge is completed.
In romance stories, after the characters fall for each other, usually something happens which causes a rift between them. The character's challenge then becomes to win his or her love back. For example, the character could build something, paint a portrait, or write poetry as a testimony of love. The size of the project is sometimes magnificent, but what matters most is the fact that the character attempted anything at all.
In Nicholas Sparks's The Notebook, Noah builds Allie her dream house even after they have parted ways. Years passed, yet his feelings for her never died. His heart helped him conquer the ultimate labor of love in hopes that she would return. At the time, he hadn't any idea if she'd see what he had done to prove his love.
Shah Jahan, the Mughal Emperor had the Taj Mahal built for his wife, Mumtaz Mahal after she died. She was his second wife and quickly became favored among the rest. He spent over fifteen years working along the sides of craftsman to aid in creating this resting palace for his wife.The intricate details and marvelous structure of the Taj Mahal should be enough to show how much he adored Mumtaz.
In San Antonio, Texas, one can find a particularly ornate window on an otherwise barren wall of the San Jose Mission. The Rose Window, as featured in the movie Still Breathing, was supposedly carved over many years by sculptor Pedro Huizar as a monument to his sweetheart, Rosa. When Pedro completed the window, he sent for Rosa to return, but she had died in a shipwreck. He spent the remainder of his life dedicated to working on the entrance to the church, and never had another romantic relationship after Rosa's death.
Whether you're in love, or whether it's platonic love, the boundaries to what people think they would or wouldn't do seem to change. There's been many times when I've heard, people professing things they'd do for a loved one and where they draw the line. You could contemplate your own answers to the question, "How far would you be willing to go for love?" However, isn't it true that nobody really knows that answer until they come face to face with the obstacles at hand?
