General Dating Tips & Guidelines l) BE HONEST. The fastest way to ruin what might have been a beautiful friendship is to lie. Leave out the fact that you are a single father of screaming 3 year-old triplet insomniacs, and miss a chance to find the woman who wants to love them, sharing your parental joys, and perhaps having the perfect lullaby. Dishonesty will always be caught sooner or later. Allow others to make informed decisions about what they will and will not accept, based on an honest representation of yourself. As a fit person you would likely be disappointed to learn that the woman you've been writing for the last month weighs 250 pounds, and not l25 as stated. She may feel likewise to learn you are the Ex U.S. president, and not the sole object of your adoration! Be truthful and avoid the pain, heartache, disappointment and separation caused by dishonesty. Open yourself to incredible happiness by allowing others to love you as you are, for who you are. 2) CREATE A 'GRABBER'. A 'grabber' is an attention- getting headline which stands out above the rest and demands to be read. Again, there are many, many 'DWM's, 44, seeking love' out there. You and four million others fit this description. Be different, even if you ARE a 'DWM, 44, seeking love'. For example, here's a few actual 'Grabbers' that have used: Set A Course For Adventure - Your Mind On A New Romance or Prince Charming Seeks Fair Maiden - Have Slipper Will Travel or Rumpelstiltskin seeks Puss in Boots for modern fairy tale with lucrative marketing potential or Tasmanian devil seeks sleek fox or wily coyote for interspecies communion or Passionfish desperately yearns for heroic salmon or reformed piranha to swim upstream with. or Undomesticatable Aries seeks lion-tamer or snake-charmer who doesn't mind getting bit once in a while. or Overeducated slave to trend seeks strong-minded business man by day & funky white boy by night for intellectual intercourse and adventure. Bonus points for dark haired, suit-weilding, confident, communicative, five-'clock shadow donning charmers who can effectively pack a smile I can feel in my toes. Would you be more likely to respond to the above, or 'DWF Seeks Nice Honest Man for relationship'? 3) BE SPECIFIC. You know who you are and what you want....tell them about it! Almost everyone seems to enjoy 'moonlit walks, candlelight dinners, and strolls on the beach'. Be specific about values held and sought, in addition to naming hobbies and interests. If you know your soulmate is a Buddhist, say so. If you are adamant about remaining childless, convey that too. State your willingness to travel. The woman in Paris may not respond when she notes you live in Rio, if you fail to mention that geographic location is no barrier. What is your personal mantra? Share it. The woman who understands and appreciates it best, is the one who will reply. 4) BE POSITIVE. Let your natural exuberance and zest for life shine through in your writing. Negativity repels. You may elicit an offer from a counselling service if you project a woebegone, or suicidal attitude, but you probably won't attract your soulmate. 5) BEST FOOT FORWARD. You wouldn't (hopefully) show up on a first date unwashed and unkempt, would you? Likewise, if your spelling skills are somewhat lacking, consult a dictionary before submitting your otherwise artfully crafted and well-thought-out ad. 6) BE HONEST, BE WITTY, BE POETIC! Aspects which cannot be over-stated!!
