Tall men dating will always have a large crowd. This is because many girls are really attracted to men who are tall. However, many girls get blinded by the tall men dating and loose focus of what is really important in their lives. A tall man will always charm even before he speaks and he might speak and put you off. This is to say that as a girl, you need to go beyond this if you really want to find a soul mate. The following are some of the practical things that you can do to ensure that you find a mate who is not just tall but can match up and be counted as a good guy. First, let us not downplay the fact that physical appearance in relationships is really important. When you really want to meet someone special, you pray secretly that they have all the attributes you are looking for. If you want a tall man, you can find a tall man who is just tailor made for you. Therefore, do not loose hope on this. There is a danger in settling for something or somebody who you do not really like. Know how tall you want your man to be. Many ladies are fine with a man who is taller than them. Sometimes, you might meet a man who is the same height with you and find reason to compromise.
Tall men dating also have the right to choose the kind of height their ideal women will come in. In other words, as a girl, you must also be ready for someone to reject you because of height which is not ideal. Many times, this might seem like a very cold move but, it is very justified. Tall men dating do not want to look like a giant when compared to the person they are having a relationship with. Therefore, be ready for both genders to exercise their right in this regard. It is vital to keep in mind that outward appearances will not matter as much as the inside will. You need to know the kind of person you are dating very well. If their inside sucks, it really does not matter whether they have a perfect height or not. The following are some attributes to look for when you are looking to make a connection of love. They must be principled and have qualities that you admire. This is a great way to judge a potential mate.
Tall men dating will meet girls or people who are not lovable. The dating scene is full of a variety that can really take you in circles searching. Just drop people who do not impress you and look forward to meeting great characters in the future. While dating, you will definitely discover that your length plays a major role in determining your physical compatibility. Just do not make a habit of ignoring people just because of their height. There is nothing that you can do to enhance your height permanently however, for girls, if you are very short, you can wear high heels which will bring you to a level where you can communicate with your tall suitor.

Many times during our adult dating encounters we can seem to hit it off rather quickly. Perhaps you are chatting with someone online and that quickly turns into a great phone conversation. Each party is saying exactly the right things. You both become overly eager to see one another and agree to do so the upcoming weekend. Its what happens in between that can change your adult dating experience.
From having such a good start, you next conversation may seem a little dry, or flat. Perhaps too much time has gone by before you talk again. And when you do talk again, the sparks do not quite seem to fly as robustly as your initial conversation. Perhaps during that time that has passed during the week has allowed for cooler minds to prevail. In other words, one of you may want to back out of the first meeting.
Of course, during the week when you do communicate you ask each other and confirm that things are still on for the weekend. Now, a strange human behavioral pattern kicks in. The person that wants to call off the date will not. They are afraid that they will be letting the other person down. Either that or that non-confrontational trait is too strong to call it off. Or, they are simply unsure and are chalking it up to doubt and not something that is set in stone. Maybe I will change my mind, they may think to themselves.
Here is what happens. By keeping their options open and being noncommittal, they are stringing you along. Right up to the very last minute. Here, the worst case scenario is that they literally wait til the last minute, even talk with you on the phone saying they are on there way over or to the place you agreed upon to meet. And what happens? They never show.
Another option is calling it off at the last minute. They feel sick or need to do their hair You know that list. And it goes on and on. You have just been blown off.
Although an unfortunate byproduct of adult dating, it happens. You are now left feeling dejected and rejected. Even though you have no vested emotional attachment to this person, you still feel that way. Its normal. Its part of being human.
This post is not for the beleaguered. It is for the people in the adult dating scene that blow people off. This occurrence is bound to happen numerous times. Dont let it discourage your adult dating endeavors.
To the people that have no intentions of meeting the person that they got all worked up at the start of the week, do not blow them off. This will be beneficial to you as well as to them. You will be sparing their feelings and you will be building your own integrity, which goes a long way.
Here is what you do when you have second thoughts about making that meeting. At least two days before the scheduled meet, let your adult dating counterpart know that you are not comfortable with meeting. Tell them the truth. Tell them that you are nervous and do not want to be hasty. Tell them that you would like to talk more in order to feel more comfortable. By doing this, you are being honest to yourself and to them. Both parties will feel better about the entire situation. And who knows, the other person may breathe a sigh of relief and tell you that they were thinking the same thing.
Among the benefits Ive listed above, you are also keeping the channel of communication open. You have not closed the door on a potential adult dating partner. In fact, you took a step forward. I bet you more often than not, the other party will be very understanding.
Think of it this way, when it is all said and done (the right way), what are the words that the person making the cancellation? Usually they are, I did not want you to be mad at me. Doing the wrong thing would have made the other person mad. The other person would have felt cheated and lied to. And that is exactly how you would have treated them if you did not simply act in a stand up fashion.
Honesty is always the best policy. Honesty does not close doors, it opens them.

Lets face it - being lonely sucks!
Few out there truly like being alone. Human beings show an aversion to this state, and for the most part we are social creatures who crave love.
However, thanks to the advent of television and the internet, more and more of us are lacking any real human contact because we no longer have to leave the house to get our information, entertainment, or even our fixes.
Because of this, our ability to socialize can become greatly impaired. We suddenly dont want to go out in the world. We dont know how to meet new people. Even in a large city of millions of people, no one really knows how to meet each other.
So we go on being lonely, and feeling helpless about our situations.
But the fact of the matter is we are NOT helpless! Being lonely is not something that is forced on us, its something we choose to experience because we do not make the effort necessary to escape it.
Here are a few things you can do right away to stop being lonely and start filling your life with new and interesting people.
1. Get out of the house!
All too often, people are lonely because they spend too much time ALONE. They are content to whittle away the hours of the day by watching TV or reading a book, or doing laundry. Thats not to say you shouldnt do these things, but staying inside your home all day will do nothing to help you meet people.
You should set aside some time - every day if you can - to get out of the house and go somewhere there are other people. It doesnt matter if its a mall, a sporting event, a trip to the grocery store, or whatever. Just get out there!
2. Talk with others!
Getting out of the house is one thing, but getting out and interacting with people is something completely different!
Failure to interact with others is no more productive than staying home and reading a book. If you go out to a club and stand in the corner by yourself the whole night, that is exactly what you are doing.
If you want to meet new people, you have to TALK to them! There is no way around this.
Talk to both guys and girls, just to get warmed up. The more people you talk to, the easier it becomes.
3. Get contact information
Once you meet people, its important to get their phone number or email address - it doesnt matter what as long as you get some way to communicate with them in the future!
Talking to people will only get you so far. Youll have met them for the night. But you want to build up a social circle around you so that you always have great people in your life.
When you meet someone you like and want to be friends with or want to date, do not be afraid to get their contact information so you can talk with them again!
4. Follow up
After you meet someone, dont just move on and forget about them. Contact them again! Talk on the phone. Find some time to hang out. Go to a movie. Go to a bar. Go out to eat.
Follow up and hang out. The more time you spend with someone, the quicker you build a relationship with them.
The key to eliminate loneliness is by having a lot of relationships. The more relationships, the less lonely youll be.
Always work on meeting other people, building rapport and relationships. Getting to know someone new isnt a bad thing - it should be fun! And when you make enough good friends youll be able to forget the feeling of loneliness.

Online dating websites create the opportunity for people to meet potential partners and friends online. Although many people go out specifically looking to find romance, the general trend is that most people upload a profile to a social networking website and meet partners online in much the same way that you would offline. When you go out of your way to find a date, it is often much harder than leaving it to come along naturally when you meet someone who you click with. When you meet someone and immediately show an interest in them, it can be difficult to really get to know each other when there is a pressure that your relationship has to materialize into one of romance. When you take a more laid back approach, you can remain friends with some people, and consider dating those that you feel you have made a bond with.

Fact: a significant number of people who use online dating are already married or otherwise attached.
MSNBC claimed recently that up to a third of those dating online in the US are married already. I dont have the figures in the UK, but I would assume theyre not far off.
As much as I disagree with this form of premeditated cheating (to clarify: I see all forms of cheating as inadvisable, but its one thing to be swept away by someone you met at random and a totally different one to go actively looking), I do approve of cheater sites and sites that let you display the married/in a relationship option. Why? Because this way less people get lied to and less people get hurt. There are people out there who dont mind seeing married people, so let them dig their own grave.
Unfortunately, some people dont bother telling you, so you have to figure it out yourself.

When you think of advice on dating, you’re thinking of things like how you should present yourself, how you should look, and how you should approach dating. The advice that most give is that you should make a good impression on your first date. It further stated that this is to emphasize how first impressions can affect your dating life and why it’s important to pay attention to your image and how you portray yourself to someone else. The advice you can get on dating come from a magazine, online sites, and even relationship experts who work in the area of couples’ therapy. Not everyone follows simple advice on dating, and sometimes it can be detrimental when people ignore certain factors when being advised on how they should conduct themselves while dating.
Advice and dating sometimes takes a bit of time to really understand and to apply it to your own life. Most usually don’t follow dating advice since they feel they can benefit without it. Sometimes it’s always good to take some dating advice because of the fact that the things you could be doing in your dating relationship you may not see and that other people can see. That’s the reason why it’s ideal to really take light of advice in dating because you want to apply the best kind of advice that will benefit you. Relationships are complicated enough without something standing in the way. Always take the responsible route of following dating advice that fits your current situation.
When giving dating advice make sure you think through what you say for it may have dire consequences on the person and their respective situation. Giving advice on dating and relationships takes some personal experience to share with others. You want to share what you actually know and it works out better when you do it that way. Experience is always a good trait to guide you in advising others in dating. If you seek dating advice on the internet make sure that the information you’re reading is accurate to what is currently out there in terms of advice that’s being given in the area of dating. Usually dating advice online should come from a qualified relationship counselor because of the training and experience they have to handle some areas of dating advice they can give to people. Not to mention that they are also more trained to give dating advice and to answer questions and give dating advice to those who ask.
Taking dating advice from those who work in the area of counseling for those who are dating and are looking to date again is more accurate. Most are usually advised to leave the area of giving dating advice to those who are trained in the area of counseling. Counselors are trained to handle some aspects of giving dating advice and can handle the backlash of what some advice can do to people. Not everyone is aware that the kind of advice you give does carry risk as well. Be careful in giving dating advice and remember that you’re responsible for the words you speak.

Finally, it arrives! Sorry its taken me so long to crank this out, and lets hope that it turns out to be something
Firstly, let me be clear- Im not doing interviews on the New Years Event. Sorry.
Secondly, a quick recap of Christmas- BEST CHRISTMAS EVER. I love my family dearly, but I also love actual peace and quiet as much if not more. In my opinion, Christmas is just a day more or less like any other- I dont need my family any more or less on that day to make it any more special. We make the best with what we have and we must be content with that. That being said, I loved my Christmas.
As a retail worker around the holiday season, I get to take part in the orgiastic free-for-all that is Christmas Shopping. I get to watch people stepping on each others necks for the best and/or last shirt/sweater/ring/video game/bottle of perfume/egg role. I get to see all the screaming and the shouting and the haranguing and the feigned Christmas spirit- anyone that works retail knows exactly what Im talking about. This Christmas, a few new pet peeves have crept into my ever-expanding repertoire of bêtes noires. Lets address them all here, shall we?
Ill start by addressing the issue of getting stupid responses to valid questions. All right, I have a lot of tolerance for stupidity. I have to, as I work with the public. I can bear the stupidest questions in the world- is this really the price? or do you have any secret discounts? or, my personal favorite, this is the Sunglass Hut? Do you have any sunglasses? That last one mostly comes up in jest, but one would be surprised how often it comes up in seriousness. What I find I cannot bear is the following- it is entirely acceptable for a person to acknowledge while searching for sunglasses that they, at the moment, dont have a clue what they are looking for (as searching for any accessory is often quite difficult). It is also acceptable to admit that one cant explain why one does or doesnt like something. What is NOT acceptable is anything resembling the following exchange.
Customer- excuse me, sir, I need your help.
Me- sure! How is our search going today? Do you have any specific questions you need answered?
Customer- well, Im looking for some sunglasses.
Me- okay, thats a start. Are we looking for sport, classic or fashion?
Customer- um, I dont know. Likewell, like, you know, like, yeah. I need some sunglasses.
Me-..okay. So do you want a plastic frame or a metal frame?
Customer- well, you know, like, I need something thats likewell, you know, likes all you know, you know?
Me-um, all right. So do you have a particular use in mind for them? Do you need them for sports, like skiing or snowboarding? Or perhaps fishing? Maybe you need them for driving? Or are you just looking for something that looks nice?
Customer- like, I need some sunglasses foryou know, like stuff and such, like that I can wear like, all the time, andwell, you know, while Im doing stuff and all that.
Me-okay. So you need sunglasses you can wear. Is this correct?
Customer- YES!
Me-..all right. Well, do you have a preferred brand, perhaps Prada or Oakley or Ray-Ban?
Customer- [blank look]
Me- [picking out a random pair of sunglasses to get the ball rolling] Okay, try these on and lets see how they work out.
Customer- [trying on sunglasses]
Me- So, how are they?
Customer- well theyre allyou know, like.you knowthey justre allyou know.
Me-really? Are they too big or too small?
Customer- theyre like.well, look, you know.
Me- umare they too sporty or too fashionable?
Customer- I think theywell, theyre likewell, I meanyou knowwell, you know.
Me- well, can you tell me what you think is wrong with theme, in your own words?
Customer- well, theyre all just likewell, you know, with the likewell its likeyou know, and stuff.
At this point, my head normally explodes. NO I DONT KNOW, YOU FUCKING IDIOT! WHAT ARE YOU DOING BOTHERING TO ASK MY HELP WHEN YOU CANT EVEN ANSWER A FUCKING SIMPLE QUESTION WITH TWO POSSIBLE ANSWERS- TWO, DOS, DEUX, DUE, 2, 01, ZWEI?! I am not out there asking you to describe every possible shade and tone of color present in the Michelangelos The Last Supper! Im asking you to answer questions where Im providing the answer for you! The words and you know are not words encoding information- at best, they are function words indicating that you are still planning speech; they are NOT informed, reasonable answers to my questions! Why are you bothering to even shop for anything at all if you cant form a sentence that carries meaning at all?! When it comes to playing this horrible, horrible game, I have found that, beyond a shadow of a doubt, gay men are the worst. They are absolutely and completely unable to form an opinion on anything at all.
My next major pet peeve is the word
DO NOT EVER CALL ME I am not your I dont know you, and I dont want to know you if the first words out of your mouth are sup buddy? Buddy is an unacceptable form of address, ESPECIALLY when I am older than you are (a lot of college freshmen and sophomores seem to think it is now their right to use diminutives with people both larger and elder than they- this is NOT the case). Also, do not call me or and (holmes?) are all perfectly acceptable, but DO NOT EVER PRESUME TO CALL ME BUDDY IF YOU ARE A PERFECT STRANGER. It is unacceptably presumptuous to suppose that I am one of your I have and you, sir, are not one of them. DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?
Teenagers are also becoming an increasingly large annoyance to me. This was not previously the case, but then again, work (and life, actually) wasnt like being buried neck deep in a landfill until I moved back to Eugene. Things change, I suppose.
Teenagers need not come into my store and presume I want to talk to them. I am perfectly happy to help them in a retail associate-customer relationship- I have no problem with this, even if they have no intention of buying anything. I DO have problems with the following questions-
- Do you have a girlfriend?
- Are you married?
- How much do you get paid?
- Do you ever just want to start yelling at customers when they are being stupid? (said without a trace of sarcasm; the irony on that one is generally almost enough for me to want to start busting skulls, but as Im on camera, I have to restrain my natural URGE TO KILL)
- Can I have some of your dinner? (while Im eating dinner)
- Do you go to high school around here? (I get that one far too often for comfort)
- So, like, whats your most expensive sunglass in here? (after being shown the Versace sunglasses with Swarovski Crystal) OMG WUT SORT OF FAG WULD PAY THAT MUCH $$$$ 4 SUNGLASSES SRSLY! (I put it in AIM speak to emphasize their idiotic tones of voice)
Just to clarify- I AM NOT AT WORK TO BE YOUR PERSONAL DANCING MONKEY, NOT FOR $8/HOUR IM NOT. Shut up and do your business in the store, then get the hell out so I can clean up after your sorry ass. I dont have any desire to converse with about the fact that your junior varsity football team has a game coming up and you need some shades to look dank to pull some chicks. YOURE FUCKING SIXTEEN YEARS OLD! I think having two older brothers was enough to pound it into my head that at 16, I was pretty much a piece of social flotsam worthy of nothing more than whatever attention my by chance fall upon me. I find that the vast majority of the 16 year olds traipsing around the mall need to have that same lesson pounded into their heads, preferably by an industrial sledge hammer, or one of those jack-hammers used to break up heavy concrete blocks.
I am also exceedingly discomfited by the teenage girls that find themselves to be exceedingly attractive and flirt with me. Aside from the fact that I THOUGHT I was obviously homosexual, the entire scenario that they seem to propose is just alarming. These girls come crawling in from their BFE high schools (Im looking at you, Veneta, Cottage Grove and Roseburg) and think theyre pretty enough to flirt up a storm with every man they see. First of all- there be somethin in the water out in these places, because these girls are oogly. I cannot describe the sorts of deformities Ive seen, especially in the tooth region- and I thought Id seen everything when I met the Spanish girl who had prehensile upper teeth (I swear to God!). Apparently, I was wrong. I am not being paid enough to stand around and get hit on by ugly girls from the countryside. This is NOT APPEALING TO ME. At least, its about as appealing as staring down the business end of a shotgun for being a professed sodomite, which I expect is what I'd encounter if I ever worked up the courage to investigate the source of these hideous monstrosities calling themselves "girls" (and "human"). But then again, thats just me.
I try really hard not to be a brand snob, and believe me, Ive had to become a LOT more tolerant after moving to Eugene because, well, this place is a dumping ground for human garbage, something like the Pacific Trash Vortex is for ocean trash. But after watching the people pacing back and forth in the mall, its time I made a special announcement to clear things up for people. Please listen carefully-
AÉROPOSTALE IS NOT A LEGITIMATE
AND OF CLOTHING TO WEAR IF YOU ARE OVER THE AGE OF 15! Please get this through your heads. I am begging you. If I see one more 35 year-old man sporting an Aéropostale polo-shirt with the collar popped, Im going to hang myself from my own entrails- and Im about 78% serious on that one. Let me explain to you folks about the nature of Aéropostale. The story goes something like this.
In terms of our hierarchy of lifestyle brands in the teen market, the top is dominated by the Abercrombie and Fitch-Hollister duo, exporting a very particular and image of WASP origins (no need to explain why various activist groups have successfully sued them for racial discrimination in their hiring policies). Like it or not, the fact that they charge as much as they do to weed out the poor, their company legitimately began in 1892 and the fact that they continue to attract their desired clientele (in shape white kids with ), their image keeps on chugging along, a juggernaut of sorts in the teenage and 20-something social circles (remember, a whole generation of us has grown up in the shadow of the A F brand image). Stepping down one tier from the top we have American Eagle, which takes the basic styles of Abercrombie and adds its own touches- brighter colors, more vibrant, if gaudier patterns, slightly lower quality and durability- while also dialing down the price (often times only half of what Abercrombie charges for similar items). American Eagle does a decent job of appropriating the preppy style typified by Abercrombie and Fitch designs and making it their own, while also managing to preserve some suggestion of the original flavor of the style.
But then you have Aéropostale. A copy of a copy. Aéropostale hasnt had an original idea since its inception, save to make the same clothes found at American Eagle even gaudier, brighter, uglier and cheaper. I didnt realize American Eagle could be made less expensive than it already was, but then I remembered that if you completely abandon all standards of design and quality, it becomes real easy to do. Aéropostale is the teenage, lower-class, prêt-à-porter lifestyle brand thats equivalent to the tenth generation photo-copy of a photograph- useless, ugly garbage that bears no resemblance to whatever was originally in the picture. I ask myself what sort of life-style are they hoping to showcase- one-step above poverty level and shockingly unaware of the fashion trends that have come and gone over the past year? Going out in a flashy Aéropostale polo with the collar popped screams I desperately want to fit into this lifestyle and income bracket but fail miserably and am too blind to realize it! I also am dangerously out of touch with modern culture and class, as popped collars went out AGES ago for everyone except young teens! (who have carte blanche to do as they please because theyre basically retarded, regardless of how you slice the pie). For the love of God, I dont care if people under 22-ish continue to shop at Aéropostale- and oddly enough, I dont notice nearly as many girls flaunting their from that store- but please, please, PLEASE, we DONT need a newsletter announcing that you have no taste or class. Stick to the generic graphic tees and the jeans, please, and if you MUST wear the patterned polo, put your fucking collar down and wear a coat. And if you're over 25 wearing Aéropostale, ...well, I guess I more or less just have sympathy for you in your a) ignorance and b) apparent poverty, as sporting Aéropostale like it's the latest and greatest is, well, just sad. Probably almost as sad as the energy I invest in my blogs thinking that someone might read it some day (but I can pretend, right?)
I feel the need to touch on everyones favorite holiday mall subject, whether youre just a mindless consumer or a mindless slave in the retail engine- CHILDREN IN THE MALL. I am only going to tell you parents this once- DO NOT
ING YOUR CHILDREN TO THE MALL until they can mind themselves, obey your commands and speak in full sentences, with subjects and predicates. There are NO EXCUSES short of my baby-sitter was decapitated by a runaway chainsaw this afternoon or I just gave birth in the womans restroom that are acceptable.
Another thing that people need to get through their heads would make everyones life much easier- or at least I like to think it would- is the rules of Mall Traffic. When walking in the mall, obey the rules of the road. Firstly, if you are walking slowly, keep to the right. Allow those people in a hurry to pass you on the left. I have yet to be in a shopping mall anywhere that does not have some sort of middle divider down its walking arcades, whether it be a physical division, stalls and kiosks or visual displays and benches- for the love of God, walk on the right, just as you drive on the right, and treat each side as you treat the sides of a freeway. When approaching a blind corner, slow down and use caution. If you intend to stop, pull out of the walking areas, so as to allow others to pass- DO NOT STOP IN THE MIDDLE AND BLOCK TRAFFIC. If you need to make a turn or exit the walking area, do so in a timely manner. DO NOT form groups walking abreast at the same speed- move in small groups in a single file line, or as close to that ideal as conversation allows. And most importantly, STAY ALERT. Seriously. I am to the point where I just want to start stepping on people because they form huge groups and move at a glacial pace (which just thrills me).
I will warn all of you that like shopping at night of the following- I like night shopping as well as the next fellow, but for the love of GOD- do NOT walk into a store in the mall at 9:01pm (or however many minutes past closing time) and expect to be allowed to shop. You are not the Queen (or King) of England. Stores (save for the anchor stores like Macy's or Nordstrom) in the mall close when the mall closes, and you dont get special treatment just because you happen to be in the mall past closing time. I will admit that I have been known to sneak into a store at 2 minutes to close and do a little quick shopping- this is not a technical violation of Retail Etiquette (its roughly equivalent to, say, returning a gift that someone has given you for something you like more). What is unacceptable is waltzing into a store at even one minute past the closing time and expecting to both shop and be served. WE POST MALL HOURS FOR A REASON. IF YOU COME IN PAST THEM, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO EXPECT SERVICE! Not only is it rude but its also condescending to assume that we have no better place to be than serving you. The moment that the clock strikes the appropriate hour and the last customer is out the door, we are FREE of the burden of serving your sorry, disrespectful ass. We get paid to suck up between the fixed hours as posted by the mall or on the outside of our store- NOT during the hours you feel may be appropriate. I dont care if you intend to spend $5,000 during the ten minutes past closing (okay, maybe thats a lie, but you get what Im saying), I dont want you in my store- I want to close the store, go home and pretend that I have a life (again, we can all pretend, right?).
Perhaps the last thing I will comment on is a bit more deep than the previous sections of this rant, but its also a bit shorter. It really saddens me that we feel the need to perpetuate the myth that during the Christmas season we embrace the ideals of peace, love and charity, when in reality we all become even more possessive, selfish and greedy than during the rest of the year combined- myself included. In the same vein as my earlier comment about Christmas, why does it have to be this time of year that we feel this way? Why cant it be all year? Id much rather just give up the charade of Christmas Good Will and all that hoo-haw-bullshit and acknowledge that we need to be better people, not just during Christmas, but during the entire year. Im starting to think that perhaps the Jews had the right idea with their Yom Kippur
Well, thats it for now, all. The yearly Holiday Retail Blog is done- and only a few weeks late to boot.

Firstly, let me be clear- Im not doing interviews on the New Years Event. Sorry.
Secondly, a quick recap of Christmas- BEST CHRISTMAS EVER. I love my family dearly, but I also love actual peace and quiet as much if not more. In my opinion, Christmas is just a day more or less like any other- I dont need my family any more or less on that day to make it any more special. We make the best with what we have and we must be content with that. That being said, I loved my Christmas.
As a retail worker around the holiday season, I get to take part in the orgiastic free-for-all that is Christmas Shopping. I get to watch people stepping on each others necks for the best and/or last shirt/sweater/ring/video game/bottle of perfume/egg role. I get to see all the screaming and the shouting and the haranguing and the feigned Christmas spirit- anyone that works retail knows exactly what Im talking about. This Christmas, a few new pet peeves have crept into my ever-expanding repertoire of bêtes noires. Lets address them all here, shall we?
Ill start by addressing the issue of getting stupid responses to valid questions. All right, I have a lot of tolerance for stupidity. I have to, as I work with the public. I can bear the stupidest questions in the world- is this really the price? or do you have any secret discounts? or, my personal favorite, this is the Sunglass Hut? Do you have any sunglasses? That last one mostly comes up in jest, but one would be surprised how often it comes up in seriousness. What I find I cannot bear is the following- it is entirely acceptable for a person to acknowledge while searching for sunglasses that they, at the moment, dont have a clue what they are looking for (as searching for any accessory is often quite difficult). It is also acceptable to admit that one cant explain why one does or doesnt like something. What is NOT acceptable is anything resembling the following exchange.
Customer- excuse me, sir, I need your help.
Me- sure! How is our search going today? Do you have any specific questions you need answered?

Customer- like, I need some sunglasses foryou know, like stuff and such, like that I can wear like, all the time, andwell, you know, while Im doing stuff and all that.

Love. We all need it, we all want it, and those who say they dont probably need it the most. But few are finding love, real satisfying love. Are you one of them? Here are ten tips to help you.
Number One. Love will not solve your problems. If you have them now, you will have them after you fall in love. Too many people believe that if only they could fall in love, all that other stuff that plagues them will fall away and their life will change. If you struggle with a porn addiction, you will still be addicted after you find him or her. If you have an eating disorder, you will still struggle with your image after you find a guy or girl. If you are a drunk, or jobless, or unsure of where you are in your life, finding someone will not give you the answers or help you change. If you are lazy, messy, uninspired, fearful, or adulterous, these vices will still be yours. You are still the same person. You need to change first, for yourself, and be ready when love comes.
Number Two. Confidence rules the day. Women like confident men and the kind of men women should want, like confident women too. Confidence is an attitude. Its how you walk and talk and act, and most importantly, how you think. If you dont think you are good enough to be with, how will any other person? Start changing the way you think and it changes the way you act. People will notice.
Number Three. Goals drive you and they drive interest in you. Pick something, preferably something you are interested in and get passionate about it. Nothing is more attractive than someone who knows what they want and goes after it.
Number Four. Smile. People like to be happy. And happiness is infectious. Smiles are calming, they charming, they are sexy. Who likes to have their mood dashed? No one. Who likes to feel good, inspired, meaningful? Almost everyone. All it takes is a smile.
Number Five. Dont delude yourself. One of the biggest problems people have is that they want something that they know is bad for them or know wont work out. Its why people are in jobs they dont like, why they are in marriages that only bring them grief and heartache, why they choose cars or houses they cant afford. Dont think you can make a relationship work when you already see problems that will have to be overcome. Its like trying to fit a square block in a round hole.
Number Six. Honesty. From the beginning. Lies are like quicksand. Nothing lasting can form. Dont act. You will tire of it eventually. And dont you want someone to like the real you? If you pretend to be something you are not, it will leave you feeling dissatisfied. Most relationships or marriages fail from people trying to be something they are not. The honeymoon stage passes and they begin to see the real person that they are in a relationship with. This is when people bolt.
Number Seven. Love is often about the right time and place. That means patience. Dont force. Its like hunting rabbits. The more noise you make, the harder you look, the more the rabbits hide. Get on with your life and make other things matter. Thats when you find love.
Number Eight. Everyone has faults. Love exists despite them. Thats why its beautiful. You will never find the perfect person. No one can be in everything for you. If you always trust in man, you will be disappointed at some point. We forget, we make mistakes, we are selfish at times, we smell, and we snore. If you can love someone despite their faults, then they are perfect for you.
Number Nine. Love is a country song. Love does not exist on a perfect plain. There are ups and downs just like the songs on your local country radio station. Some call it the sweet and the sour. If you expect perfect bliss all the time then you are not ready for a relationship.
Number Ten. Love takes energy and imagination. If you dont have the time or the energy to devote to a relationship, then dont start it. Love is dynamic. It either grows or dies. If you want it to grow you must devote your time, your energy, and most of all your imagination.

Number One. Love will not solve your problems. If you have them now, you will have them after you fall in love. Too many people believe that if only they could fall in love, all that other stuff that plagues them will fall away and their life will change. If you struggle with a porn addiction, you will still be addicted after you find him or her. If you have an eating disorder, you will still struggle with your image after you find a guy or girl. If you are a drunk, or jobless, or unsure of where you are in your life, finding someone will not give you the answers or help you change. If you are lazy, messy, uninspired, fearful, or adulterous, these vices will still be yours. You are still the same person. You need to change first, for yourself, and be ready when love comes.
Number Two. Confidence rules the day. Women like confident men and the kind of men women should want, like confident women too. Confidence is an attitude. Its how you walk and talk and act, and most importantly, how you think. If you dont think you are good enough to be with, how will any other person? Start changing the way you think and it changes the way you act. People will notice.

Women are unpredictable beings, and even a thought about first date makes majority of men tremble either from agitation, or from fear of being unfit, or both. What line of behavior one should take? Being like a medieval chevalier, confident and benevolent master of his fiefdom, or like a man appreciating the liberties of modern society, who is treating his lady as an equal? Where is this thin line which divides goodness from awkwardness, attraction from repulsion? Here are seven useful tips, which I would like to share with you:
Tip 1: Plan everything ahead. All elements of your date program (yes, program), must be well thought. Moreover, it is better to have two options for her choice, just in case if she do not want to go with you to A, offer her to go to B. Rely on what you know about her: if you met her online, then knowing her profile and her own words from your online exchange will guide you. Still, remember that she has never seen you before, so dont try to freak her out: meeting in remote parks, cemeteries (even historical) and abandoned warehouses must be out of question. The meeting place must be nice, cozy and reasonably crowded. Museum (or something similar) would be a good choice, you will be surrounded by beautiful objects and you will have a decent chance to talk. From there you can offer next stop at a restaurant, or wherever you have planned the next stop.
Tip 2: Do not be late. Psychologists say that opinion about a person is usually formed over the first 15 seconds of a meeting: you may not get even that much, if you will get late. If these 15 seconds (or even few minutes) of her time will be filled with waiting, well, you just do not want this to happen. Women hate when someone makes them wait: in this state their mind offers them a million of things which they could do with better outcome than just mere standing and waiting. The rest is just a matter how long she can stand this condition, usually not too long before she will take-off and leave. Then you will arrive and will be waiting for nothing to happen: you have to blame for that yourself!
Tip 3: Look neatly. Maybe I should not tell you that, maybe you are well aware of this simple fact, that when you are coming to a date (especially first date) you should look like you just jumped from a vintage postcard! Nevertheless, I have to mention this anyway, at least for the sake of those who forgot this simple rule. Women like when man looks like he took care of his appearance. Of course, everything counts and everything will be noticed: attire, shoes, hair, fragrance, even teeth and fingernails! Undoubtedly, she had spent several hours before mirror, making herself look special so she expects same from you! Do not get me wrong, you do not have to go for a day in a beauty parlor, just put some effort into it, so you will look attractive. Shower, shave, wrinkleless clothes and shiny shoes are those necessary elements which will make you feel good about yourself and help you to win those 15 seconds, which I have mentioned above.
Tip 4: Flowers! Have you ever met women who did not like to get a gift? I have not. Women love gifts, especially diamonds. But the good news is: you do not have to bring diamonds on your first date (just save this thought in the back of your head for the future). Give her one red rose and you will give her a reason to feel that she just met a tasty and thoughtful man.
Tip 5: Be a real gent. Make her feel that traditions of old chivalry are still alive. Open a door before her, pull a chair from under a table for her, drop yourself into a puddle, so she could step on you and not to soil her genuine Prada shoes. Well, perhaps the latter is an extra, but you have got an idea. Even hard core feminist will appreciate such attention. Oh, well, I almost forgot: always help her to put her coat on (if there will be an occasion for that) this is an extra chance to hug her slightly, which might pave you a way in a right direction.
Tip 6. Be generous with compliments. This is what every woman would love and will expect from you. Your first words (after the formal intro) should be in any way saying how great, gorgeous, fantastic she looks. In a sense this is one of the tasks which you have to perform over all meeting: finding right moments and giving right compliments any time you have a chance. Your effort will be always appreciated.
Tip 7: Speak less, listen more. Women usually want to know about you, but even more they would like to tell about themselves. Give her this opportunity: ask questions and listen attentively everything she says. Of course, you have to listen actively, support her with short phrases, like Is that right?!, Yeah, I see, and keep nodding. If there will come your turn to talk, it is a bad idea to talk about your past wives and lovers, about issues with your health, about problems at work or on any religious subjects. Your task is to find a topic of common interest (while she is talking) and develop it. Look into her eyes, smile, show her a good sense of humor, and definitely do not try to tell her everything about yourself, leave it to your second, third, n-th date with her, which will surely happen if you will follow these simple rules.

Many incredible women are around dreaming about the right men. However, its possible you cannot identify by the first glance. Dont worry. Finding these women require some ingeniousness, sometimes.
Of course at drinking bars and busy nightclubs you will bump into many of them. The only problem is those places are also crowded with men attempting to meet women. Too much siege normally makes women get defensive and crossing this barrier becomes something really challenging. Sure you can wrestle with other men for a womans attention, but trying to meet a women somewhere else definitely would be a far more effective strategy. Increase your chances searching at places where, usually, you find more women than men.
1. Are you aware that many men absolutely hate womans clothing stores? Its a nice hint of a place where you can find plenty of women and only few men. Take this shot, and you will find a great variety of women to pick from .You may begin a chat asking for guidance on buying a gift for your sister, or make a compliment on the nice articles she just bought.
2. Fitness Clubs are also places filled with new women to meet. The secret is to swap some of your iron pumping with aerobic training on the treadmills, or show up at a yoga class. Stick to some of these activities and you will raise your possibilities of meeting women while working out.
3. Another great opportunity to meet women is to join an adult education class. Various subjects are offered by colleges as night classes and all you need is just to pick one or two to increase your chances of meeting women. You will only need some attention to avoid male subjects - you dont expect to find many women taking car mechanic classes, do you? Pick something that attracts women interest, like pottery or cooking classes.
4. Internet is everyday more likely to be a nice place to meet nice women and the way you search can make all the difference. Placing personals ads or subscripting to an online dating website can be one handy and very effective way. Post an ad on a dating website to meet some women who match your expectations. There are far to many websites offering this kind of service on Internet, that its nearly impossible you wont find a woman that fits on your profile.
5. Like the womens clothing stores, Hobby and crafts stores are good spots to be considered as searching sites. Women tend to enjoy arts and crafts, so you will probably find many of them at these places, purchasing tools and items for their hobbies. The main point here is that hobbies normally dont get great men interest, so there is a huge possibility to be only few men around at this kind of shop.
6. Other places not prone to have many men around are the tanning spas and beauty salons. On the other hand, those are places always full of women. If you get a crush on women who really put an effort to keep their good look, a salon is definitely a place you should go to. Get manicured will leave your hands nice and sound like a dream for this type of women. After all, its not really usual to meet men who assume that keeping a good appearance is not only a matter of mere vanity.
7. Bookstores are a good place to go if your goal is to find someone having interests alike to yours. Dont speculate which subject attracts womens attention more. Just stick to the reading sections holding your personal interests and give notice to women walking by the shelves. You may get extremely surprised to realize there are many women interested on football, ocean fishing or old cars.
8. Sports events are a spectacular place to meet a great new women, although it sounds a bit paradoxical. Ok, we all know the regular audience of sports events are men. Even so, there are two good reasons that may drive you to look for women at those events. Firstly, if you are a sports fan, certainly, it will be great fun to meet someone who may share your passion with you. Secondly, you must be aware that women use the same strategy shown here to find men, meaning that women at a sports event may be looking for men, as well.
9. Spotting once more womens taste for arts, you should write down on your list of the greatest places to meet great new women. Men, normally, dont attend to plays on their own, however, women frequently do. Since a man watching a play alone is something unlikely to happen, your sole presence can make you more noticeable than the rest of the audience and call single women attention.
10. At last, if you are really keen to meet a beautiful new woman, maybe you should shop for food more often. Women are the bigger percentage of grocery stores costumers, so being one of the few men around can give you some advantage. Grocery stores also offer you a huge range of subjects to begin a conversation. Ask a woman for assistance to choose a pasta source or vegetables for a special salad, and it may wind up on an invitation for dinner.
Sure you will find plenty of available women at many of the bars and nightclubs however, the feasibility of meeting one is almost null. Womens behavior can get very contradictory at this sort of place since many of them, even eager to find a man, get a very defensive posture when besieged. Searching at places where women dont expect to be approached you make yourself more likely to meet women with their defenses down, making it easier to find someone with interests matching yours.
