And Finally…Tips On Dating Online
Donna, quite fittingly, finishes her run of articles at eHarmony with the subject of commitment. The main goal at the end of dating. With our last few weeks of following Donna on her dating articles and my pennies worth of info, I thought I would round up some of what we have learned and a few other tips. We busted is the often preconceived idea that dating online is for losers. It definitely isn’t, it can be used by the person down the street and the famous. To remember to be careful and stay safe. It doesn’t mean you...
read moreLatest Post from Donna
This week Donna is talking about two things, what we want in a date and the very fragile subject of financial differences. Of course we want someone who is well mannered, cooking skills and house trained. We wouldn’t ask for someone who can’t cook, doesn’t know what a saucepan is and wears the same pair of socks for 7 days. Keep in mind that we all perceive things differently. Ask my kids and they would say I am an ok cook and over tidy. I think I am better than ok in the kitchen and not tidy enough. A man’s view of...
read moreWhat Not To Do On a Date
Donna is dishing out some useful tips on dating as a single parent in her post this week. I completely agree with her tips and wish I had them when I was first on the dating scene as a single parent. You can read her post Parental Guidance over at eHarmony. I was going to write my tips for dating as a single mum, instead I here is an example of ‘what not to do’ with one of my very early dating experiences. My parents had very kindly offered to take my two children to a Christmas party they were invited to. This would mean they...
read moreLong Distance Relationships with Stilettos
One of the things Donna is talking about this week is long distance relationships. She talks about other things too so do have a read of her latest article, Great Expectations. One of the positives (and can be thought of as negative) of dating online is that you most probably won’t be dating someone who lives down the road. This can be a good thing as you get to meet a wider variety of dates. But there are down sides. When you’re filling in your questionnaire on eHarmony its a good idea to have a realistic idea of the distance...
read moreWould You Date Mr Nice?
Donna this week is talking about her fourth date with Mr Nice and eating peas. Trust me there is a connection in there and she is talking sense, rather good sense actually. When you date online at eHarmony they choose the potential dates for you. You get more than one to choose from so you might have a few types who you wouldn’t normally date. Don’t worry they aren’t picking names out of a hat, they do actually put a lot of science into it hence you answered so many questions in the questionnaire. What they do is work out,is...
read moreAre there really Real Men on dating sites?
Since I posted up about Donna and her online dating with eHarmony and my experience of online dating, I have had an email asking if there really are ‘real blokes’ on the dating sites and aren’t they all after one thing. This sadly is sometimes the portrayal of finding love on the internet but it’s not necessarily so. First off it would depend on which sites you use. You’re much more likely to come across ‘dating players’ if the site is a free service. If you are after something more than a casual thing...
read moreDonna’s First Post at eHarmony
So what does Donna tell us about first? In her first post, Donna talks ages. Donna is early 30′s (and no I am not at all jealous of her. Those who are not regular readers, I was dragged kicking and screaming into my 40′s a few weeks ago and didn’t shut up winging about it) so dating someone who is 10 years younger and another who is a lot older is quiet a swing on the age pendulum. I don’t want to spoil too much of her post so you can mosey on over there and have a read, but I will say she does talk about the difference...
read moreDonna Air is Blogging at eHarmony
When I heard that Donna Air had teamed up with eHarmony to talk about her online dating quest to find a perfect partner, I’m afraid my first response was a fit of giggles. Why would a gorgeous successful woman need to use online dating to find a partner? But then I got thinking on it, actually its quiet a smart move. For those of you who haven’t a clue who she is or too young to know who she is, Donna Air is an actress and TV personality. She was in the CBBC series Biker Grove and also presented The Big Breakfast. Not that I am...
read moreE Harmony Review
E Harmony attacks the online dating scene a bit differently. Instead of letting you loose on the searching and unearthing, E Harmony sends you a daily list of profiles selected for you. The idea being that you filled out all the forms and ticked the relevant boxes and they do all the matching and hard work. If you want a good old nose around then this site might not be the right one for you. They do advertise though that they help you find the real thing instead of people who are after more casual set ups. Again there is a very detailed...
read moreMatch.com Review
They may have annoying adverts on TV at the moment. You know the one where the girl walks into a music shop and starts playing on the keyboard and a strange young man (who in my view would benefit from a hair cut) starts joining in…I like old movies…tra la la…. But they must be doing something right to be one of, if not the, most well known dating sites online. When you start to look at Match.com the first thing that may out you off is the fee at £29.99 per month but if you’re not so confident that a month is too short...
