5 Steps to Prep Yourself Before Prepping Your Profile

Are you a good catch?

I believe being online is the best way to meet someone. But doing it right means more than just posting an attractive picture and decent profile. You have to make sure there is truth in your advertising.
I have a handsome male client who has been actively trying to meet someone “normal” online. He has some truly entertaining stories. However, the best laugh we shared was when he finally asked, “Is it me? Or are all these girls really crazy?”
The reality is like attracts like. He’s still licking his wounds from a devastating breakup. So the only girls that are attractive to him are the ones who are in some way unavailable. I assume since you’re on this site you present yourself in an eye-catching package. But what do you offer on the inside?

When you can check off these 5 suggestions you will truly be a good catch:

  1. Unpack your baggage – All your past relationships that didn’t work out have one thing in common – you. Be honest with yourself. Candidly evaluate your previous participation and behavior. Taking responsibility for your mistakes will prevent you from repeating bad behavior in your next relationship. You have nothing to learn if you blame.
  2. Make sure you’re ready – Are you capable of staying present and enjoying what’s happening in front of you without comparing it to someone or something else? If your thoughts frequently retreat to memories of a former love then you’re not ready to date yet.
  3. Know what you want – Are you ready to make a commitment and share your life with a partner? That means being ready to compromise and sometimes making sacrifices. If that sounds scary to you then be honest. Make it clear you are just looking to have fun and spend some quality time with someone interesting.
  4. Have something to offer – Are you interesting? When asked what you like to do can you talk about your activities positively? Or are you always waiting for a partner to do things with? Don’t define yourself by who you date. Remember, like attracts like. If you have a full, exciting life you’ll attract a better companion.
  5. Think positively – What is your internal dialogue telling you? Are you 100% supportive and compassionate? Or are you tough, demanding and critical of you? You are what you think you are. And energy is contagious. So whatever you’re thinking or feeling about yourself on the inside is what you’re portraying on the outside. Be nice to yourself. Others will be nice to you too.
As with most things I realize some of the above recommendations are easier said than done. If anything in particular seems difficult or you take real aversion to something that’s an indicator you need to do some work around it. But you are not alone. I’m here to help.

Splitting the Bill – The 60/40 Method


I always get the question of who should pay for dinner on dates.  From what I’ve seen and heard, the 60/40 split is what usually works best.  This means that the guy covers the “bigger” purchases (dinners, show tickets) and the girl pays for the “smaller” purchases (cab rides, tip).

The 60/40 split addresses many of the problems found in the traditional 100/0 split or the modern 50/50 by offering the right balance of tradition and gender equality:

Problems with 100/0

Reduces value of the woman; supports outdated notion of subordination
May make woman feel like she “owes” man something in return
Often unsustainable… (unless guy is filthy rich)
Problems with 50/50

Emasculating
May lead to calculation overload and resentment… “well… you paid for x and y, but I paid for z, so to make it even, i think you should pay for this one”
Obviously, the 60/40 would not apply to dates where two people are highly polarized either in income, status (celeb dating a pedestrian), or age.  Oh yeah, and the guy should pay for the first date (unless the date was a complete disaster).

Now, what happens when you date a super hot girl and she never offers to pay.  It’s very common.  Hot girls are used to not paying for anything and frankly, they think that gracing you with their presence in public is payment enough.  So, you gotta ask yourself if this is the type of girl you want to be dating and if so, pick up that extra side job and pay for your trophy!

Lastly, there’s nothing less sexy than hearing the words “I’m so broke”.  I know it’s a recession, but we don’t want to hear about your financial woes.  If you can’t pay for even your half of the date, don’t ask us out.  Simple.

How To Date Your New Hampshire Girlfriend’s Sister In Five Steps

There is nothing wrong with dating your girlfriends sister. It’s legal in most countries and if you’re worried about being turned down, statistically, 87 % of all women in the US under the age of 35 would say yes if you do it right ( MNJOASW*, 2008). So, now that we’ve covered the moral issue, lets get down to business shall we.


  • Step One - Be A Straight Shooter
Just keep it simple and ask your girl’s sister to go out with you. Based on the statistic above, if she is 35 or younger, you have 87% chance she’ll agree. This simple line always works: “Hey lets date behind your sister’s back!”. If she hesitates, she’s just worried about her sister finding out. You must swear to her you wont say a word.(Since you’ll probably tell your buddies in the bar, Make sure you swear on her sister- and not your mom). Even if she says yes, you must follow the next four steps.
  • Step Two - Be The Bad Backapge Guy


Girls like that. If she has a dog, you’ll have the perfect opportunity to show her how bad you really are. Prepare a romantic dinner at her place and wait for the dog to bark. When it barks, throw a sharp object at it (which you prepared in advance). Make sure you hit the dog and not the TV set- that can be bad. If you kill the dog by mistake (try not to let this happen), you can always say “ sorry about that honey, but I can make delicious hot dogs HAHA”! This would give you points in two areas, culinary skills and unique sense of humor.
  • Step Three - Eat Like A Real Man
Eat with your mouth open and make sure you make clear noises when you chew. This is especially important at family events.
  • Step Four- Don’t Pick Up The Tab, It’s A Sign Of Weakness.
Ask her to lend you money from time to time- it shows that you have real guts.
  • Step Five- Flirt With Her Best Friend
There is nothing sexier than a man flirting with his girlfriend’s best friend. Based on MBJO**, 79% of women in the US under the age of 42 want a guy to grab their butt in public.

Now that you’ve scored your girlfriend’s sister, you can tell your buddies in the bar. Even if it didn’t work, you can still tell your friends you did it. You can always duplicate your success if she has more than one sister. If she doesn’t, the best friend always has a higher conversion rate of success.

Disclaimer: The writer makes no guarantees for any of this to work. Do not try at home. Not for kids under the age of 12. If you got caught, never admit and blame the sister (something like ” she started”).

Happy Singles Day!


I think we need a “HAPPY SINGLES DAY”.  The holidays are hard for most singles and a time when you feel depressed or question why am I still single. I’m not talking about a day where you stay in bed all day and feel sorry for yourself.  But, a day where you honor your empowerment and singlehood.  It takes 2 singles to make a couple so we all start out backpage single. There is alot of power in being on your own and being successful at taking care of yourself.  The most important relationship is the one with yourself so treat yourself and focus on what you have vs. what you don’t have.


1st vacation with your boy/girl friend


Vacations are a great way to really get to know one another. It’s a time to get away from your daily routine and stress.  No phones ringing is the best ever!  A lot of people are nervous the first vacation they take with the person they’re backpage dating. This is where you see if your mate can relax and just go with the flow.  Some backpage people don’t do well going away let’s say to an island for a week with nothing to do but relax and have fun.  It’s a great test to see each other outside of our normal everyday lives. We are all a little nervous the first time we travel with our new partner. But, hopefully you will be pleasantly surprised.

One Night Stands Just Got Tougher

Just a few years ago, DNA paternity testing was only available through a special clinic or physician and packed a pricey fee. However, because of scientific advances, individuals desiring a DNA paternity test can get one for use in the comfort of their own home.

The price is, as people can purchase a home testing kit for as little as $20 to $30. Of course, there is the fee for the lab as well in order to get the actual results, which happens in about 5 to 7 days.

Move over Maury Povich, it looks like there’s a new kid on the block that’s going to help in tracking down her baby daddy.

I’m not sure I’d trust DNA in a Box for settling a decision as major as paternity, but hey, who am I to say what’s right.  I would hope I’d never find myself in the position of not knowing who my babies daddy was.

10 Personality Traits Every Great Girlfriend Should Have


Most guys can describe the physical characteristics of their ideal girlfriend. They have an idea of her height, body shape, and hair color. But once you find that girl, you have to ask yourself if she has a great personality. Or is she spoiled, uncaring, and irresponsible? Here are 10 personality traits every great girlfriend should have:

A sense of humor


A good girlfriend will find her man funny and laugh at his jokes. But a great girlfriend will try to make up her own to make her boyfriend laugh too. If she doesn’t find anything funny, she might be either extremely boring or be prone to having depression. Along with the requisite sense of humor, your girlfriend should laugh at funny movies, like watching Saturday Night Live at least a little bit, and get a kick out of watching stupid YouTube videos.

Compassion

Most women, by nature, are compassionate. This is probably the most common trait on this list.
However, it should not be ignored. Even if your girl has a hard edge to her, she should still be kind to
animals, sweet to children, and respectful to the elderly.

Manners

For some reason, some girls think they are fabulous enough that they can get their way through life
without any manners. Watch out for lack of “please” and “thank you” where appropriate. Other bad
manners are texting in the movie theater, constantly interrupting a conversation, or frequent swearing.
You should never be embarrassed by the way your girlfriend acts in a public place.

Responsibility

Do not get involved with a girl that doesn’t pay her bills, is always a half hour late, and flaky. Your
girlfriend should have a stable job, a decent place to live, and take care of her own problems. If she’s
irresponsible in other areas of her life, she might not place high importance on her relationship. If she
can’t take care of her own problems, she probably will ask her boyfriend at some point to help fix them. Along with being responsible, she should be an honest person.


Values Education

Watch out for girls who don’t think education is important. Not everybody needs to go to college to be successful in life. But if she dropped out of high school and is determined to be a student of life, heed caution. If you marry a girl that is a high school dropout, it is unlikely that down the line as a parent, she will place a high value on education. She should be able to print neatly, type without looking at the keys, do simple math, and carry a conversation. If she didn’t go to college or doesn’t want to, find out why.

Goal-Oriented

Goals are important for anybody. You should have your own goals for your future, and your girlfriend
should have her own. If she doesn’t have an idea of what kind of life she sees for herself in ten years, be careful. Part of having a strong relationship is setting goals as a couple. You should not need to explain to your girlfriend what goals are and why they are important.

Cleanliness

Every girl should have some sense of personal pride. She should shower daily, know how to style her
hair, and look presentable. To most girls, this comes naturally. But like the compassion trait, it should not be overlooked. You don’t want to be in a relationship with somebody who does not wash her hands after using the restroom.

Active Lifestyle

Your girlfriend’s activity level should be close to your own. If you enjoy hiking, camping, and working out, she should too. You should both equally enjoy every activity you do together. On the other hand, if you both enjoy playing board games or going to the movies on a Saturday afternoon, that’s fine too.

Respect for the Environment

These days, being “green” is not a trend, it is a lifestyle. Your girlfriend doesn’t need to drive a hybrid, but she should care about the planet. Littering, throwing cigarettes out the car window, or wasting resources are not attractive qualities. Caring for the environment is an important trait that goes along with compassion and respect.

Money-Wise

Your girlfriend should have her own bank account and source of earned income. She should be able to save, budget, and really understand the value of a dollar. Her boyfriend is not a bank and should not be expected to pay for everything. If you pay for meals or activities, she should always express appreciation and not take these things for granted.
