• Study finds single women feel stigma in society still

    Dating Stories 24.03.2010 1 Comment

    A study I read about today talks about how many women that are not married feel a lot of stigma and pressure in today’s society in many ways. Some call it a “spinster” syndrome, and I didn’t even know what that was until I looked it up on wikipedia. Whoa, seriously?

    I knew there were issues and pressures on occasion in today’s society when it comes to marriage and kids. I have engaged in discussions on social networks about how it is annoying to both men and women when we are single, not married, and have no kids in some situations. It almost feels like total disrespect when people start showing baby pictures at work and we have nothing to add to the conversation.

  • Cougars and MILFs dating younger men becomes more mainstream

    Dating Stories 15.01.2010 Comments Off on Cougars and MILFs dating younger men becomes more mainstream

    So there has been a movement the past couple of years to name older women in the dating scene cougars, especially when they are looking for younger men, or younger guys were seeking older or more mature women. I had thought we were all going to stick to the word MILF, but I suppose cougar is a better choice for several reasons.

  • Outlook bleak for men’s future dating options in China

    Dating Stories 12.01.2010 Comments Off on Outlook bleak for men’s future dating options in China

    A news story found via yahoo, and reported by the AFP has a headline

    Skewed China birth rate to leave 24 mln men single

    It seems that China’s population limits of one child per family along with the cultural preference of having male children instead of female children, so they can carry the family name and I assume be stronger and earn more money or resources, is set to backfire in the next decade.

    From the article:

    Researcher Wang Guangzhou said the skewed birth ratio could lead to difficulties for men with lower incomes in finding spouses, as well as a widening age gap between partners, according to the Global Times.

  • A threesome that never happened

    Dating Stories, Fantasy and Reality 18.06.2009 Comments Off on A threesome that never happened

    One night when I went out with an ex girlfriend and her friend, I thought we may end up in a threesome sex adventure before the night was over. Things started well, they both knew we were all relatively single, all of us were dating around, and we all got along. They were good friends and comfortable flirting with each other and me. I knew they were both bisexual to some degree and they both appeared to enjoy my company, so we went to a few places around town that sort of turned into a three way date.

  • Good night for a movie date

    date ideas, Dating Stories 06.01.2009 Comments Off on Good night for a movie date

    So a date at the movies sounds like an easy no brainer, it’s been part of the American heritage for many years, but a date at the movies is not as simple as it looks in the movies.

    Tonight was a great night for a movie date, and for several reasons. First off it was an easy choice since there a new film out that we would both enjoy seeing. That takes out the whole “let’s barter about which movie to see”. Often it’s a choice of something the girl is going to enjoy and the guy will be bored with, or visa versa. Tonight that was not an issue. Twilight was still playing, and we both wanted to see it.

  • a few dates, a couple sleep overs and I’m falling in love again

    Dating Stories 23.10.2007 Comments Off on a few dates, a couple sleep overs and I’m falling in love again

    I never saw this coming. Yeah, she’s hot, but not my normal type. I know I am not her normal type either. Putting aside the looks stereotypes, could we be a really good match? It’s quite bizarre. There are so many things that I love about her, and things that normally turn me off or have me running the other direction, give me pleasure.
