Why You Don't Date Robots

If you ever wanted to know why it's a bad idea to date robots, here's your chance. Let's hope that in the future nobody creates robots that we can date. I don't know why anyone would want to date a robot anyway. I don't want to talk too much about this. However, with all the technology we have, we can't create a robot that thinks, feels, like we do as humans. Yes, we currently have no option to date robots, but this video is explains why nobody should ever date robots. It's very scientific and explains exactly why.



On a more serious note, technology has influences us - as we spend more time online and on the computer, it's always good to get away from the computer and spend time with real people. I'm not saying people online aren't real, it's just good to have real interaction with people, even if you do enjoy spending time online.

Many Reasons why Dating Sucks

As I listen to the tunes MTV is playing and look at the light above my table, I can't help but think about the past-time we call dating that we try so hard to achieve. If dating was so easy, there wouldn't be as many single people out there. Ok, stop, you may think to yourself that you want to stay single forever, well good for you. You do that, but most of us want to find someone that we can trust and be with, whether it's a girlfriend or something that we want to "marry". Some people will say to themselves that they will never want to get married, but there is a reason for this attitude. It's because dating sucks. It's hard work and it's hard to work it into our life. We try to work, we try to pay our bills, we try to do the little things that life requires, we have go get food and feed ourselves everyday. There are many reasons why being single and dating just sucks.

First of all dating sucks, because when you try, you get turned down. You say something nice and they think you are just trying to get in bed with them. They are lonely and you are lonely but they don't admit it, and have their friends to back up that claim. They don't seem to realize at that moment in time, that they will soon be by themselves again with their dog or cat again for the next consecutive month.

Let's say you find someone nice, and you go out with them, and you are spending time with them. You realize that there is a silence, well that's ok, if you are friends, but if you are just getting to know eachother you have think of something to say. So you start talking about your childhood or you talk about the hobbies that you enjoy, but they have no interest in them. Then you question, so what do you like to do? They say that they like to watch TV, or spend time at home, and you say, wow that sounds fun, but you don't know what say about TV, because what's to talk about TV? You think to yourself, what can I say to get myself back on track, but there is nothing.

You are at a bar, and you see a girl, and you go up and talk to her, and she starts talking to you for a minute, but then suddenly you gave her a bunch of confidence and she has left and and gone to talk to someone else. So you sit there at bar, and drink alone for a while hoping she'll come back, but she has already exchanged numbers with someone that has talked to her for 2 minutes, and now you don't want talk to her anymore, because you think it's unfair that you talked to her for like, 20 minutes, and now she is exchanging numbers with someone that she talked to for 2 minutes.

You are at starbucks, and sitting down, reading a book, and you glance over and start talking to a girl, and she seems interested, and you start a conversation. She enjoys the same things you do, and you enjoy the same things she does. You think you might have found the right person for you. You start talking about more intimate things, and you think you have found a great friendship. All of the sudden, her phone rings, and it's her boyfriend.

You are at a bar, and you see a nice girl comes up and flirts with you. You get along great and you have a wonderful conversation. You think you two are great for eachother. She starts telling you things about herself you wouldn't expect, you talk back and tell her things about yourself. She really likes you. You really like her. You are getting along great. You aren't the type of person to rush and ask for her phone number, because things are going so great already. Then one of her friends, maybe jealous friends, comes up and says that she and the rest of their friends are leaving and going to another bar, and they have leave now. So now you are all alone, and she's gone, and she feels pressured to leave with them. She mentions that she will see you again, but you know it's a big city, and that probably won't happen. So there you are again by yourself.

Here we go again, we are out someplace, and feel like we've struckout so many times, barely hanging in there, and a girl comes up to you. You seem to have no interest, because of all the other times. So you try and pretend that you are ok, and that you are happy that she's talking to you. She realizes that you are not happy, and starts asking what's wrong. Then you start complaining about how complicated dating is, because that's what's on your mind. At first she liked you, now she doesn't like you anymore because she thinks you complain too much. So she leaves you and says have a nice night.

I'm sure it's just as difficult for women to find a nice man, as it is for a guy to find a nice woman. It's just the most complicated subject ever. If you don't agree, then you better help me, because I think dating is the most complicated thing I've ever tried. I "think" I'm smart, and I think I can try and figure it out, but I've figured out that it just plain sucks. Dating sucks. So instead of this 'stop global warming' maybe we can try and say "stop these dating games" and let's try and all get along. The hippies had it right. Peace and love. Maybe we just need love eachother more.

Dating Do's and Don'ts

Taking you back to the past. It's a 1949 Instructional Dating Film. Has dating really changed that much since 1949? You decide, however you may gain some wisdom from this educational film. It covers all the basics of dating from a perspective of 1949. You could learn a thing or two. It's quite educational. This video covers.. Who do you ask out? How do you ask out someone on a date? How not to ask out someone on a date? How to get ready for a date? How to be on time for a date? How to act on a first date? How do you say goodnight?



We look at how people acted back in 1949, and do we see really a difference in the way we act now? Perhaps there are few differences, but generally we are same? It's tough one to decide because I didn't experience the 40s. However, this can give you some insite to how people thought about dating back then.

Compliments

Many men are confused what women want. Too many men try and go out and market themselves. This type of behavior doesn't really work. If it does, then you found a woman that will want to use you and truthfully there aren't that many women that exist like that. So let's continue.

Compliments can be good, but you need know how use them. You need to be honest and real with your compliments, people can tell if you are just trying to flatter them. As you can tell yourself. Too many compliments will turn someone off. Especially if you haven't really even spoke with them. If you are thinking "wow, this woman sounds very smart", then say it. If you think she's got great style, then say it. However, you do not need throw out compliments for no reason, but you can't forget to compliment people. So if you want to find someone special, you need make sure that the person you are pursuing knows they are special.

So if you compliment someone, and they flattered, not only will they feel good about themselves, they will start return the favor and notice things they like about you. You also need make attempt to get out there. If you do not ever go out and explore, then you won't ever have chance. Just think about what you want to hear. If you say something funny, and someone compliments you, then you appreciate this compliment. Everything you throw out, usually will come back to you.

Celebrities and Dating

Celebrities have it made when it comes to dating. Supposively they can meet up with someone and get shown pictures of other celebrities/models and get to decide who they can go out with. If you are not a celebrity, usually you will have make an effort to go out and meet someone. You might get lucky and meet a friend that can introduce you to someone special, but not very many friends will devote all their time to help you find a date. I am posting this, not because I'm jealous of celebrities. Not at all. I just think this blog needed some humor and this is what I have found to be humorous in my opinion. Wouldn't it be nice to be able look through photos and get choose who you want spend time with that following evening? It seems like a great thing. I was also curious what others thought of that. I know that there are certain dating services out there, that you can go and look through photos and meet someone. However, I think that it tends to be for the older people. I am not sure many people that are younger could even afford this type of service. Anyway, for kicks and giggles here's an old video from 2003.




While this is just a TV show, I wouldn't be suprised that this is how celebrities find their dates.

Be Unique

What sets you apart from the crowd? If you want to be apart of the crowd, you will never stand out. Nobody will ever notice you or be interested in you. But you are unique. Everyone is, just show it!

There are many ways to accomplish this goal. It's also very easy to do. Just be yourself. Talk about what is interesting to you. Be interested in them. If you want to find success in dating, you must not blend in with the crowd. Nobody will ever notice you. So stand out from the crowd.

Just be yourself and the right person will find you and you will attract that right person. Do not worry about what others think of you, if you are being yourself. Just try and accomplish this task. You don't have to impress anyone. There is nobody to impress. It's just you and the world.

The more you try impress people, the more they are going to be turned off by your behavior. Do not copy and try be like other people. Be yourself and you will be successful at dating. I can't say this anymore clear. Do not pretend you are cooler than others, just be humble. Everyone loves humble people. Nobody loves people that talk or brag about themselves.

When you realize that just YOU is enough to please people, you will be ok. You don't need need impress then with what you know or what you have. Just be yourself, show your personality, and you'll be successful dating. Yes, you will.
