Dating - Don't Let Breaking Up Break You


A subject that's not brought up often on dating blogs is what to do after a relationship ends. We Love Dates has some great advice. It is true that you have to give yourself a mourning period. After all, a relationship has died - the people go on, but the love is gone. Yeah, sure, pay your respect to the late date.Then follow this checklist after you're done with theirs:
Treat yourself to a night out, dine out, bring a book.Buy yourself a couple special treats for enjoying at home.Buy at least one new outfit. Something splashy that will boost your confidence.Stay up all night playing video games or watching movies in your underwear.Now get your tail back out there and date again!Posted byJodie BrittainatThursday, May 03, 2012

Smart People No Better With Relationships Than the Rest of Us!

This post on dating myths that even intelligent women believe just reminded us that relationships tend to stump the bright and dull alike. What is that? Being smart helps us land good jobs, do well in school, and accomplish all kinds of feats in other fields. When it comes to dating, we're all wearing a dunce cap.

For one thing, there's more than one kind of smart. There's emotional smart, street-smart, artistic smart, and so on. When we talk about intelligence, we usually mean the kind you can measure with an IQ test. That's the logic aspects - math, language, spatial reasoning. Computers, after all, are good at that kind of smart as well. But interpersonal human interaction takes place in a completely different realm.

In fact, we even know about a certain kind of person who is specifically IQ-smart, but people-dumb. That's called "Asperger's Syndrome." Of course, we hate to even bring it up because there's something about that condition that makes everyone self-diagnose as soon as they read about it. (It's rare. Like Lou Gehrig's Disease rare. You don't have it.) It just makes a point that there is a difference between cognitive brains and relationship brains.

For a lighter treatment, we'll toss in 5 Reasons You’re Not Dating Smarter Women. Just in case you were wondering.

Guys - Listen-up If You Want to Avoid Getting Maced

This one post deserves to be saved for future reference, a guy's guide to approaching women in a non-threatening way.

It's such great advice, it's a sure bet that women will want to bookmark it too, to send men who fail to get a clue. Of course, men who fail to get a clue also fail at reading and understanding. We won't invent a way to solve that problem for many generations, yet. Come to think of it, that's the whole problem with the clueless people in general, never mind online dating.

Anyway, as many of you guys out there can attest, it's an uncomfortable situation to happen to be the kind of guy who looks scary. Isn't it? We've observed the kind of man who can walk up to an intersection and you hear all the drivers locking their car doors.
