 I believe Satchmo, Louis Armstrong truely captured the "essence" of love with his song .........
I see trees of green, red roses too I see them bloom for me and you And I think to myself, what a wonderful world I see skies of blue and clouds of white The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night And I think to myself, what a wonderful world The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky Are also on the faces of people going by I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?" They're really saying "I love you" I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow They'll learn much more than I'll ever know And I think to myself, what a wonderful world Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world,Oh Yeah Thanks Louis :-) |

 So you’ve met someone you fancy, they seem to like you too…
Now what? Don’t mumble the same old “Fancy a drink?” Instead, make yourself seem more windswept and exotic by suggesting an out-there first-date idea instead. Extreme Dating Research has shown again and again that fear is a turn-on. After being exposed to frightening stimuli, we all react more favourably to members of the opposite sex, and find them better-looking. So, cash in on the fear factor and take your date to a theme park. Going on the adrenaline rides will release all kinds of feel-good endorphins in both of you, making you seem more attractive to one another, and giving you a good excuse to cuddle up. After you prise your fingertips from your date’s arm, suggest a smoochy turn on the ghost train. Or there's.......Beach babe Babylon Don’t worry that it’s winter – take your date to the beach. In many ways, an off-season trip to the beach is more romantic than going there in the height of summer, as you can pack a Winter Picnic (think mulled wine, hot soup, Bouef Bourgignon in a flask) and snuggle up together under fifteen blankets. Stroll down the pier to play on the machines, and visit local attractions like Aquariums and Crazy Golf when they’re at their quietest Thanks go to Kate Taylor at http://uk.match.yahoo.net/matchscene/article for these "fresh" ideas |

Little white lies

Sarah Fielding has some interesting things to say about
"When it's okay to lie on a date"
Anyone in a successful relationship will tell you honesty is essential to having a great partnership. So is it ever okay to stretch the truth when getting to know someone new? White lies are variations on the facts designed to hide a truth that would otherwise be hurtful or harmful to hear. Here are some of the most common untruths uttered in order to maintain a little dignity and decorum when dating.
Little white lie: I've only had a couple of serious relationships ... Questions about your sexual history are crass and invasive, especially when you're just getting to know someone, so don't hesitate in being vague or illusive when a date starts digging for dirt. This little white lie is a handy foil when the date conversation heads into too-intimate too-soon territory. And if you do end up seeing each on a more serious basis — and decide to be a little more, err, accurate about your exes — you can always insist that you have only had a couple of serious relationships — the rest meant nothing.
Little white lie: I love it, what a great gift! In the early stages of dating, hormones, chemicals and just plain bad taste can make us buy all manner of kitschy gifts for our loved one. We are often too courteous — or too blinded by love — to let our date know exactly what we think of their hideous taste in gifts. We don't want to break our lover's heart — or, worse, miss out on getting presents in the future — so, we fake it. But this little white lie can have serious repercussions — depending how wide of the mark your partner's gift choices are. As time goes by — and the tacky and impersonal gifts start piling up — you'll find yourself dropping none-to-subtle hints (and store catalogues marked with Post-It notes) in an effort to redeem yourself from this little white lie.
Being truthful is a dating fundamental, but there will come a time in every single's life when being a little creative with the truth is not only okay, but essential.

Check out these entertaining tales from Sherry
When Sherry Halperin’s husband died she wasn’t sure she was ready to look for the second love of her life. Dozens of dates later, ranging from bizarre to romantic, she's come up with a humorous and honest book about her experiences in the new world of dating.
Halperin talks with host Mike Cuthbert about her book Rescue Me, He's Wearing a Moose Hat: And 40 Other Dates after 50. |

Dutch Treat

 The delicate subject of whose paying on a date has
always been a tricky one.
I dont believe it is unreasonable to have the chap in question paying for a cup of coffee at a first meet however on subsequent dates things may change.
Some men are old fashioned in their thinking on this subject and can get quite touchy about who pays for what, others quite open,the upshot is one just has to bite the bullet and get it out of the way early.
Would like to say here though guys, don't think that because you buy a lady lunch that it means you are "entitled" to anything extra or are in effective purchasing a little extra!
I like Wikipedia's explanation of Dutch Treat................
"The phrase "going Dutch" probably originates from Dutch etiquette. In the Netherlands, it is not unusual to pay separately when going out as a group. When dating in a 1 on 1 situation however, the man will most commonly pay for meals and drinks. English rivalry with The Netherlands especially during the period of the Anglo-Dutch Wars[citation needed] gave rise to several phrases including Dutch that promote certain negative stereotypes. Examples include Dutch courage, Dutch uncle and Dutch wife. The particular stereotype associated with this usage is the idea of Dutch people as ungenerous and selfish.
In Spain, "going Dutch" is attributed to Catalans, due to a stereotype that they are somewhat penny-pinchers. A stereotypical non-Catalan Spaniard would compete to pay the bill for the group. However, the common term for "going Dutch" bears no relationship to Catalonia: "pagar a escote" ("cleavage paying")." |

 He who find a wife finds what is good and receives favour from the Lord
Prov 18:22 NIV
Figtrees is a fun way to meet other Christian singles and also increase your circle of friends. You can choose between group dinners for 4-6 singles or meet over coffee on one-on-one dates. And it works! In less than 18 months, FigTrees has had three weddings, three engagements and many other couples are in serious relationships….
clear evidence that the Lord’s blessing and favour is upon us. |
