Everyone knows that part of dating is romance, maybe I am easy to please, but I think have known some pretty romantic men in my hay day. I would love to hear about some of your most romantic experiences. Below, I have listed some of my most romantic experiences to help start things off. Please write to me at jp@international-internet-dating.com and tell me about your most romantic date.
I was once flown to Chicago for a first date that included dinner at the Chicago Chop House, and a trip to Navy Pier. I thought that was very romantic.
I was taken to New York for New Years Eve in Time Square. That trip included dinner at ‘Windows of the World’, which was, of course, before 911. That romantic date will be a special memory that I will always treasure.
I was flown, on a private plane, to Key West for Fantasy Fest. This trip included a stay at the Pier House Resort penthouse, which was incredibly fun, and romantic.
I was treated to a prime rib dinner for two at Bern’s Steak House in Tampa, Florida, which included a tour of the restaurant. The evening was topped off with a special bottle of wine and desert in their famed desert room.
There are more romantic memories, many more, but the memories have faded over time. There are some memories that will never fade; one in particular. I think that the most romantic thing that anyone has ever done for me was when a particular someone left a CD, that was special to both of us, with a single red rose on my doorstep. The doorbell rang and when I went to answer it I found my special presents laying there, my heart melted, and all the other romantic things that ever came before diminished in comparison.
The most romantic things to me are the little things, things that have a shared meaning, things that are intimate, and personal. Those are the memories that shine the brightest, and I will cherish them forever; maybe I am just easy to please, or just maybe I recognize what truly comes from the heart.

It seems like everyone these days is starting a free dating website. Anyone with access to the right tools and knowledge can, and will, start one of these up from just about anywhere. Is there a way for singles in Canada to tell the real deal from the duds just by looking? How do you know what type of sites to avoid, and which to sign up for?
It doesn't take much to start up a free dating website anymore. What does take a lot of work, however, is creating a high quality website that works effectively and provides good service to customers. Luckily, it's usually the effective sites that are successful, and survive. But, how do you differentiate the successful start up websites from the doomed ones? More importantly, how do you, and other Canadians, protect yourself from “free dating” scams?
The first signs to watch out for have to do with the quality of the website. You can usually tell the difference between high and low quality free dating sites just by looking at them. Even though free dating websites in Canada don't make money from their members, good ones can still find lots of ways to generate income. Lots of income. So looking at the quality of the images, the layout, and so forth can give you a good indication of which sites in Canada are doing well and making money. Web pages that look sloppy, messy, or poor quality usually indicate that people haven't spent enough time, effort or funds on making their website look as good as it could. The visual presentation is so important to a website, and is the face of the entire company. If a free dating websites isn't putting any effort into improving the face of their site, just imagine the other, less visible areas that they might also slacking off.
Another good indicator of which sites to choose are the number of other people who are already members. Chances are, more people will be willing to sign up for a free dating website that they know works, either from their own experience with the site or from word of mouth. Also, people aren't likely to stick around with a site if the service isn't working for them, or if they are dissatisfied customers. On top of all this, the more members a website has, the greater chance you'll have of finding someone you're attracted to from Canada. In the end, whether a free dating website works for you is dependent on a number of factors, including your own personal tastes and needs. But, to give yourself a good head start finding a good quality site, with proven results and a positive history could give you an added edge and a more enjoyable free dating experience.

If you spend any time reading the profiles on Match.com or any of the other online dating sites, you'll see a lot of women who say they just want to meet "a nice guy."
Furthermore, if you talk to women about relationships often you'll hear, "I'm tired of dating all these jerks. I just want to meet a nice guy."
Guys read and hear this, so when they meet a woman, they act like a "nice guy." They're sweet, respectful, give her compliments, gifts a peck on the cheek--and they never see her again.
What's her reason? She'll say, "he was a really nice guy, but there was no chemistry there." Remarkably enough, this is the same woman who says, "I just want to meet a nice guy."
What's the disconnect, what's going on here? Why do women say they want to meet nice guys, but when they do meet one they don't want to see him again because there's no "chemistry?"
The answer has to do with what we as men think a nice guy is, and what women really mean when they say a "nice guy."
We think of a "nice guy" as a guy who's meek, mild, unoffensive, humble, a guy who compliments women, buys them gifts, lets them make all the decisions, wants her to "just be happy," and is very careful to do nothing to offend her.
Women think of a nice guy as a guy who makes them feel like they feel when they're around the jerkiest of jerks, but doesn't come with the baggage and negative behaviors the jerks always come with.
Here's what women want when they say they want to meet a "nice guy:" a man with a strong sense of personal authority, with a naughty, fun, playful side, who genuinely likes women. While he engages in "naughty behavior" he doesn't do the things jerks do: lying, abusing, freeloading, etc.
In other words the "nice guy" women want makes them feel like she's with a jerk without the bad behaviors the jerk brings. So next time you hear or read a woman say, "I just want to meet a nice guy," you'll know what she really means--and it has nothing to do with how men define a nice guy.

It's a classic topic of conversation for guys: What kind of men do women want, nice guys or bad boys? An interesting statistic tells us just what kind of personality women want in men. A survey by TopDatingTips.com found that 38% of women prefer nice guys, 15% prefer bad guys, and 34% prefer a blend of both.
Did you hear that last number? A good 1/3 of women don't want guys who are 100% good or 100% bad. 34% want a guy who's got a little good, and a little bad, in him. The good part in him makes him treat her well and shower her with affection; the bad part in him makes him exciting, dangerous, and powerful. Fortunately, mixing some bad parts with your good side isn't that difficult. It requires positive changes that will change the way you look, feel, and talk to women.
You don't have to be a bad boy to get girls. You just have to bring bad boy attitude. The five ways to do this are:
Get physical
Make her feel safe
Play on her wild side
Don't let anyone walk over you
Develop ATTITUDE
Nice guys can learn a few things from bastards. The reason many women shy away from guys who seem too nice is that they don't want a guy who'll be submissive, clingy, and dependent. They don't want a guy they can walk all over. Nice guys often treat a woman with such politeness that she can't imagine him ravaging her on her office desk. Nodding patiently, going out of your way to impress them, backing off when someone treats you inappropriately: these are the things most girls just can't stand. You're acting like you're less than them, and there's just no challenge there.
Remember, you NEVER want to give women higher status than you. The reason women always go for "bad guys" is because they project superior qualities women yearn for: confidence, adventure, popularity. Unfortunately, nice guys just don't convey those things that girls fantasize about.
But nice guys CAN be similar enough to bad boys to get the women they want. Let's look at each method of bringing in "bad boy attitude"...
1. Get physical. If you tell a woman that you do Tae Kwon Do, have a black belt in karate, or have reformed from your previous life as an amateur rugby player, she's going to immediately assume that you're the kind of guy who could protect her in an emergency. Now, if you're a 135-lb geek with spaghetti arms, she may not believe you, so I recommend that you actually get some martial arts or self defense training. Kick some ass on the football field. Join a gym and get pumped up. Show the woman that you're a warrior, and she'd better believe it, or you'll just move on to the next girl.
2. Make her feel safe. By doing the little things for her, like walking on the part of the sidewalk between her and the street, or keeping an eye open for anything potentially dangerous, or standing up for her immediately when anyone attacks her verbally or physically, she'll learn to TRUST that you, indeed, have a bad guy within you ready to stand up for her and defend her if necessary. Be the guy who straps her in her seatbelt on the roller coaster, or who offers a hand so that she doesn't trip. Trust is built upon these actions.
3. Play on her wild side. As I said before, being successful with babes takes the kind of attitude that isn't afraid of risks. If you're always concerned about being politically correct, perfectly polite, and the kind of gentleman she'd introduce to her folks, you'll see girls slip through your fingers time and time again. Be a little outrageous. Flirt with her shamelessly. Let her know that you find her sexually attractive. Drop hints that will intrigue her. Say something risqué, and grin when her mouth drops. They may act shocked, even offended, but believe me: they LOVE it when you tease.
4. Don't let anyone walk over you. You're going to find yourself in confrontational situations from time to time, with everyone watching. Stand up for yourself. Make it clear that you won't put up with that kind of treatment-even from a woman. No one has the right to talk to you in an aggressively confrontational way, lay hands on you, or threaten you. Even though your immediate instinct may be to back down to avoid a scene, quash it. Scenes draw attention, and there are always going to be women in the crowd watching whom you can impress by the way you handle the situation.
5. Develop attitude. I just can't emphasize enough how crucial having a winning, confident attitude is. You don't care what others say. You don't care what others think. No matter how a woman reacts, it just blows right over you. That's because you're always in control. No woman-whether beautiful, popular, or rich-has power over you. You don't need anyone, you're not dependent on anyone, and you don't have to cling to anyone. Got it? Good.
So give these methods a try. Work out. Act like her protector. Stand up for yourself. And develop that attitude that says you've got the power to do whatever you want. You'll be irresistible in no time!

When I was in junior high, my best friend at the time (Kyle McMenamy--wonder what ever happened to him?), showed up with a book he thought was the most amazing thing he'd ever read. It was entitled, "Subliminal Seduction" and it went on to describe how advertisers deliberately placed "subliminal images" in their ads that literally hypnotized people into buying.
The author (who I'm too lazy to look up) "proved" how a plate of fried clams was actually full of pictures of people having an orgy, how a beer commercial really was driven by images of oral fun, and all kinds of other exciting stories. Of course as junior high kids we ate it all up, and went around hunting for "subliminal seduction images" wherever we could find them. It was a lot of fun, but the only image I could ever see was the naked guy on the box of camel cigarettes. Supposedly there was a naked woman too, but I could never see that one, no matter how many different ways I looked.
Ahhhh, how I wish all of that stuff was true!
Why am I telling you all this? Here's why: I get questions every now and then from guys who want my opinions on "psychic ways to meet women," "relationships as energy," and "magick." Personally, I have no problem with any of those things with one exception: they just don't produce anywhere near the seduction results of actually talking with a woman.
Now, I've had some experiences that could only be termed "energetic" and I hope to have more. But none of these things are anywhere near as effective as doing the tried and true seduction techniques that get women to approach you, and these things all involve, at some level, interacting with a live woman.
Being a fun, unpredictable, naughty boy who she never knows what you're going to say or do next is a bazillion times more effective than any "psychic" or "energetic" method I've heard of. Running a well written profile on the online dating services will get more women to approach you than any "ritual" you can perform. Becoming a dynamic public speaker may not give you psychic abilities, but it'll dang sure get women to fight over you. When it comes to the seduction of desireable women, demonstrating authority never seems to fail.
My point is this: there are a certain set of male behaviors that get results with women, and outside of that, the efficiency of everything else is so low as to be non-existent. I think "energy" and "psychic senses" and "clairvoyance" are pretty dang cool, but I put them in the same category as "subliminal seduction." A lot of fun, but that's it.
If you want to be successful with women, just stick to the narrow set of behaviors that's been proven to work, and avoid everything else. When you think about it like that, it's actually kind of boring, but the seduction results sure ain't. To use a football analogy, it's like the difference between a "good loss" and an "ugly win." I'll take the ugly win 100% of the time.

The debate continues with whether free dating websites in Canada are better than pay dating websites. While there are pros and cons to each, it's ultimately up to each individual person to decide which type of dating service is best suited to them. So, as we weigh the advantages and disadvantages, decide which are worth taking seriously, and which are more important to you.
The first and most obvious advantage of free dating websites in Canada is the cost. In addition to avoiding the need to spend money by signing up for one of these free dating websites, there's no need to disclose your credit card information. For people who are concerned about giving such sensitive personal information to an unknown company, this can certainly help improve the likelihood of creating an account.
There are some who may argue that having to pay for dating sites increases the quantity and quality of the members who belong to pay dating websites. This, however, is not always the case. Free sites encourage a wider range of members to sign up, from all walks of life, and all financial backgrounds. Although people who speak for pay dating sites believe that financial status is an indicator of a personals “quality”, this is not necessarily true in the least. Furthermore, free sites are open to all people, which can lead to greater numbers of members in Canada, and greater diversity.
Supporters of pay dating websites in Canada also argue that free dating websites are open to spammers, since you don't need a credit card to sign up. As the online dating industry adapts and improves, however, more privacy and security features are at the disposal of those who run them. Credit cards don't necessarily guarantee security, and spammers can still find their way onto pay sites. Also, as mentioned before, since there's no need to disclose credit card information, the chances of credit card fraud are practically eliminated. Finally, for those who are unsure about online dating websites in Canada, and how to begin, free dating sites are an enjoyable way to take the first steps into meeting people over the internet.

You're dating a new guy, and you're crazy about him. You're feeling vulnerable, you definitely don't want to get hurt, so you call a few friends to analyze things he's said to get their perspective. Is this a good idea?
Not really.
While it's tempting to give friends an I-said-he-said account of your conversations with a new love, it's a big mistake. You destroy whatever intimacy that developed. If you want a special relationship, keep it special by keeping it between the two people it involves: Him and you.
(Discount this advice if this man has ever hit you or threatened you in any way. In that case, RUN FOR THE HILLS. Dial 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) for help!).
As for a normal new boyfriend, your friends do not know him any better than you do (unless they're his sisters, in which case you should definitely keep quiet about him).
Do not invite other people to speculate about your relationship. It's not their place, and it's none of their business. Trust yourself to make the right decision about whether or not he is the one for you.
Avoid asking questions like, "Do you think he likes me?" and "What do you think it meant when he...?" Use a man's actions to gauge his feelings for you. If you don't understand something he did or said, ask him about it. For instance, "You asked me to meet you at 6:30, but you didn't show up until 7:15. Was there a lot of traffic?"
See what he has to say for himself. Does he seem genuinely sorry, or does he pull the same stunt the next time? Respond accordingly.
Acknowledge your own feelings, always: Do you feel good around him? Confident? Attractive? Or do you feel insecure? Stupid? Fat and ugly? You know how you feel around someone who likes you, so seek your own counsel.
When you discuss your relationship with other people, you cheapen it. You undermine it, too, because you've made it subject to others' opinions. You've raised the stakes because if the relationship tanks, you might as well have taken out an ad in the New York Times.
Give your new relationship the dignity it deserves and keep it to yourself. Offer it care and attention. Trust yourself to let it develop as it should. If it's meant to be, you'll know it.
If it's not, you'll know it,too.
