Dating Requires Effort

I know you hate to hear that but it’s true. Gone are the days when you could show up in your dirty jeans and stained t-shirt and get a burger at the car-hop joint in town. Ok, that was never an acceptable date but times are changing. The net has shown us that there are lots of people looking for new partners so you have to lift your game if you’re going to be a top contender.

Be fit at any size. You don’t have to be slender to be fit. Be able to walk up a flight of stairs without losing your breath. Let your date know that IF you make it to bed that you’re not going to huff and puff and make it all seem like work.

Be clean. There are some people who think bathing is only required on Saturday night. If any of you are here at SexyAds – you’re wrong. 3 day old body odour is unacceptable and will make you undateable. (is that a word?)

Get a clue. Be able to carry on a conversation about something. You don’t have to know everything but know something to talk about. Pick up random tidbits of information on Wikipedia or read a book you can talk about, check the CNN website before your date. When the conversation has a lull in it, that’s when you pop in your profound thoughts. You only want to have sex with them and not discuss the world situation? Honey, nobody can fuck non-stop from door to door. There’s gotta be some travel time and getting undressed time and getting dressed again time.

Be kind. I know there’s the word sex in the name on the door but that is no excuse to leave your manners on the rug outside. Treat people with respect. Sure you might want a dynamo in the bedroom but treat your date with some class and you’ll be amazed at the results you’ll get.

Dating requires effort and a bit of follow-through. You’ve got to make the contacts and go through whatever it takes to make yourself attractive enough to date. I’m not talking about looks here.. your whole person has to attract someone to date. If you’re a Grumpy Gus or a Ditzy Dolly – you’ve got a bit of work to do but it’s all possible!

    When I date a guy, I want him to take good care of himself and treat me right. Pick up lines are for the birds. Computers are not for dating. Lets get personal and physical. Being safe is a very important thing to me.

    Hey, tips you have given can really make dating simple.
    Dating is really not that difficult if you have an impressive personality and you have guts to talk with the person in front of you.
    Dating is time to understand each other before getting into relationship. So one must be confident and courageous to talk with the person in front of you very frankly.

    Doesn’t everything worthwhile require at least some effort? Isn’t the whole big thing about finding love that it’s a struggle, and when you pass all the adversity and meet your companion – you appreciate them all the more?

    If everything in your life lands at your feet you just end up spoilt, complacent and unappreciative.

    Give me a struggle every day – and I WORK in the industry!

    Thanks for this insightful post.To make an acceptable and careful dating preparation must required. In dating you must show your personality and it’s not an easy work.

    Still it’s so much easier with online dating now. And so much more fun! It is safer and makes more sense to meet in person after you’ve talked online for a while and made a connection.

    One can only have exuses to not find the need to give tender and joy to the partner.
