Men`s Divorce Dating

Speed dating events can be some of the Best places to meet women. Whether you live in New York, L.A., Montreal, San Diego, Boston or any other major city, there’s a speed dating company in your area.

Speed dating is half party, half musical chairs, and all cop. This convenient solution promises to slice, and dice, and even re-grow your thinning hair line.

Well, it might not be able to re-grow hair, or make home-made potato chips… but it is quickly gaining in popularity with older singles who want an alternative to dating sites. The 2 main questions are: Does it work, and will it work for you? You need to keep a few things in mind before you make your decision.

I guess the easiest way to explain speed dating would be to compare it to the old fashioned singles mixers of days gone by. An event management company would recruit a bunch of single people into one location. In the main hall, two areas are set up. The men take one circle, and the women take the other circle.

Each person is allotted a limited amount of time. Each sits down and starts conversing until their time runs out. After that, they switch to the next potential suitor. If there is a connection, you might trade contact information before the buzzer sounds.

The main idea of speed dating is simple. Once the first couple runs out of time, a bell goes off and everyone moves to his or her right. And the whole thing is repeated again until you run out of hot chicks to game.

Once you run out of girls, the event is concluded. Every guy has had the opportunity you meet several future prospects. Although they started small, I’ve recently seen some of these events get quite impressively large.

The only downfall to this approach to dating is the sheer amount of time you’ll have to spend with each girl. The entire concept is based on the idea that first impressions and gut instincts is all you need to generate a spark. But is can you really be expected to make a choice in whether or not to give out your phone number in just 5 minutes? I wouldn’t suggest speed dating to guys who are shy or not used to meeting new people in such a fast-paced environment.

I’ve heard mixed reviews as to the effectiveness of speed dating. It’s not every guy who’s suited to this type of matchmaking service. Although, it’s definitely something to experience.

Another drawback is that you’re only getting a superficial view of this person’s “best behaviour”. It’s all an act that they put on in hopes of catching Mr. or Mrs. Right. If you do find yourself connecting with a girl at one of these events, just keep in mind that this first impressions might not be a reflection of their true selves.

Speed dating might not be right for you. Maybe it goes against personality type. But don’t worry if you find yourself having doubts. It’s natural for everyone to feel a bit overwhelmed on their first try.

If you’re alone after divorce, I encourage you to give it a try. Who knows? You might meet your next wife. Worst case scenario: You meet lots of interesting girls who could become friends that introduce you to your next wife. Don’t worry about finding true love on your first night. Just take your time and have fun.

Divorce rates are at an all-time high. Many couples are going through the pain of a dysfunctional marriage. You also have to take into account the number of divorces that are stopped before they get too far. You’re not alone in experiencing the pain of divorce.

I often get guys asking me “How can I pull it back from disaster?” or “How do I get the marriage back to love and happiness?” While every divorce has different people, values and circumstances, there are some core errors that people often to make when trying to salvage a marriage.

I want to help you stop these mistakes and create positive outcomes instead.

Here are some common relationship mistakes that can really accelerate a divorce, and some ideas you can use to change habits and eliminate some of the pain of divorce.

Reassurance - “I’ll change. I swear!”

Have you ever resorted to this kind of desperation? Has anyone used it on you before? Did you honestly believe your wife or girlfriend when she said this? I didn’t think so, even if they really mean it, your marriage is probably in so much trouble that this’ll sound insincere. It’ll also sound weak, and build no confidence in your wife. Even if it’s what you THINK she wants to hear. What she says and is not always what she means or what she wants to hear. At this point, it’s too late to salvage a marriage. Last minute tactics like this will not work …

So what works? How can you reassure her? There really isn’t much you can say. So why say anything? That is right; don’t try to reassure her. Actions speak louder than words. Show strength and positivity in your dealings with your wife, and do what needs to be done without talking about your intentions.

Tread lightly and carry a big stick.

Emotional blackmail - “I love you so much!”

Yea, I know you’re sincere about this. But it’s such an obvious fall back. She’ll feel pressured, and emotionally blackmailed. Especially if she does love you and is just hiding it, it’ll just push her farther away because she’ll feel like you’re targeting her emotional soft-spot. And that’ll just make things worse. “I love you” is one of the most powerful sentences in any language. But power applied in the wrong way can cause disasters. Especially in a fragile relationship.

So can you tell them how you feel? While you may feel the urge to blurt “I love you”, it’ll often it’s best NOT to use it while you’re both in such a delicate circumstance. Save that for better times and high points, .when you can both grasp the words with a clear head.

Arguing – “But you promised …”

Using logic or guilt to change your wife’s mind is the surest way NOT to salvage a marriage. Being defensive and hypocritical is counter-productive. The more you argue the more she’ll lock up. If you’re negative, she’ll do the same. Needing to win is counter-productive. Trying to force unnatural change can be like digging your way out of a hole.

So how can you salvage a marriage without discussion and arguments? Once again, don’t do it! Getting drawn into an argument is one of the biggest relationship mistakes you can make at this point. Arguments completely mess up a fragile situation.

Don’t solve the problem? It doesn’t make sense, right? Fix something by not fixing it? But it works! Don’t defend yourself … she’ll be reluctant to come after you if you just hand over the victory. In this case, you have nothing to gain by winning.

This dissolves the hostility. The root cause of the problem can only be addressed once the hostility and defensiveness and urge to WIN is taken away. That’s the only time when a solution will work itself out ..

That’s right, the problem solves itself. You don’t need to fix it; both of you will start to change to solve the problems. As opposed to before, where you would both be too stubborn and unwilling to budge. As corny as it sounds, love really is the answer. But you’ve both got to put your egos aside first.

These are just a few ideas to avoid the pain of divorce. Of course every situation is different and your case may require a slightly different approach. But I’m hopeful that this will help many of you avoid common relationship mistakes.

Good luck!
