Online dating breaks the rules of attraction
Finding your ideal guy or girl in uniform from an online dating site means all the so-called rules of attraction just don’t work.
Looking for a romance with someone in the services via the internet means you have to work out a new set of rules to define your relationship.
Often, relationships with soldiers, sailors or airmen are long-distance affairs that short cut the way traditional pairings pan out because of constraints of time zones and the fact your other half may be in a war zone.
Face-to-face you can use body language flirts and cues to show your interest, but online these are no good.
For instance, psychologists say we show visual cues to members of the opposite sex we think might make a suitable partner. These cues would be pointing your knee or toes at the person you want to address most in the group.
Then there are the flirty hair stroking, little smiles and sly looks.
If you are chatting online with someone, then you have no way of judging how what you are saying comes over because you have no visual cues.
On the other hand, the internet rids many people of their natural shyness and allows them to say things they might have taken a lot longer to broach face-to-face.
So what can you use as romantic reference points in an online relationship?
- You have got to know who you are talking to, so you need to make sure you contact your friends through a site like Love Services, where we check out profiles and try to make the environment for chat as safe as possible for everyone.
- Don’t send any photographs or personal information to someone you don’t really know – perhaps asking for a video chat to confirm the person at the other end is really who they say they are and matches their profile picture.
- Stick in your comfort zone – don’t let someone at the other end try and force the pace.
- Try not to send signals that can be interpreted in a different way from what you mean – try and be clear about what you say to the person at the other end.
- Remember that visual cues and body language work both ways and ask for reassurance if you are picking up vibes from the other end that seem at odds with what’s being said.
Girls and guys in uniform tend to be good communicators because they are team workers and often need people skills to do their jobs – don’t forget services include the police, nurses and firemen, not just the army, navy and air force.
If you belong to one of the services – civil or military – don’t forget that ordinary people may not understand some of the jargon that you use without thinking on a day-to-day basis.
You may have to show a little patience and explain what you mean a little more than if you were having a chat with a colleague whom knows what you are talking about.
Protect yourself from bogus soldiers trying online scams
Love is a battlefield according to singer Pat Benatar – and if you have a passion for men or women in uniform, make sure you don’t fall victim to a bogus love cheat trying to con you out of cash.
The scam goes like this – a woman usually spots a photo of a guy online that she likes or is contacted by someone from a military dating site.
They talk online for a while and build a relationship and everything seems too good to be true – which means it usually is.
After a while, the guy suggests that you can talk privately to him by satellite telephone – but he explains that due to security, setting up the call involves you in some sort of registration that involves passing personal details.
Stop right there!
If you receive an email or message like this, then the person at the other end is unlikely to be a genuine serviceman is ‘phishing’ for bank or credit details.
The next step is the satellite call involves a cost of around $500 and the bogus guy at the other end makes excuses why he can’t pay because he is posted abroad and asks you to settle the bill and he will pay you back sometime later.
This is why however much you trust someone you should never, ever give your personal banking information out to someone you do not know.
Dating forums are full of similar stories from women who have lost thousands of pounds to this sick swindlers preying on sometimes vulnerable people simply looking for some romance in their lives.
Some have unfortunately paid up for the satellite calls and then the con artists has then asked them to pay for flights so he can come and see them on his next leave.
Watch out for any scammers – especially if the firm ‘Ts2 Satellite Provider’ or the elusive Sgt Jeff Miller, a name often used in the ruse, crop up.
Safety first
Every Love Services profile is manually checked out as far as reasonably possible to protect registered members from this kind of scam.
* Do not send any cash under any circumstances to any other Love Services member
* Contact us straight away with the profile details of the person involved if you feel in anyway the member is bogus
Our intention is to help service people and their friends have a safe and trusting environment to meet online and loveservices will immediately act on any report of a suspected scammer.
Dating Tricks and Treats for Halloween
If you’re single and dating then Halloween is a great chance to have some wicked fun with your partner.
Halloween is when witches ride their brooms, ghosts and ghouls are howling and haunting and things go bump in the night – but it’s also a chance to vamp it up for a great night if you are in high spirits.
So, if you are someone who’s not scared of their own shadow and wants to make Halloween a night of romance, take the chance to show your darker side.
Here’s a few ideas of how to while the night away if you are out in the country and away from lots of others having Halloween celebrations:
- Put a horror movie on the DVD or Most Haunted on TV, turn down the lights and strike a match for some candles and snuggle up together on the sofa in the flickering shadows.
- If scares and thrills are not your scene, then try out some spoof horror flicks like The Young Frankenstein or Shaun of The Dead.
- Mix up some love potion cocktails – these are spirits you want to see, white ones like Bacardi, gin and vodka that mix well with blood red grenadine. So does any aniseed drink like ouzo or pastis.
- Don’t forget that old favourite – a Bloody Mary by mixing vodka, tomato juice, lemon and some Worcester Sauce or Tabasco to taste.
- Have some harmful fun with love spells – try writing out the character traits you want from your lover – these should not be describing a particular person but the type of lover you are seeking.
Dab some perfume or aftershave on the paper and put the list in an envelope and hold the envelope in your left hand. Meanwhile, gather some flower petals, preferably red or pink, and drop them in the envelope with your right hand.
Think loving thoughts while you perform the spell, close the envelope and seal with a kiss. Never open the envelope or the spell will break.
Just remember you don’t always get what you wish for…
- A midnight walk is not for the faint-hearted but you may have to cuddle together if you see some ghostly shadows in that moonlit country churchyard or hear eerie noises as the wind blows through the leaves in a dark and mysterious wood.
- Don’t forget to play some ‘trick or treats’ on each other as well. No suggestions here – you can come up with these yourselves depending on how well you know each other.
Whatever you do, make sure you don’t give your partner the fright of their life that makes the night a horror story they just want to forget.
How To Succeed With Affiliate Dating Sites – Part 3
If you already own a website or blog that attracts a consistent number of visitors and which is based on a particular niche interest then congratulations - half your work is already done! You have an audience who share a common interest and who regularly visit your site, so adding your dating affiliate program links and banners to your site will probably generate some new members and earn you some commission. As a website owner or blogger you will already be aware that your site needs frequent updates in order to keep it fresh and give your visitors some reason to return.

Today there are billions of websites and trillions of web pages and cataloguing, indexing, and listing these sites in such a way that each can be found in a search engine is a mammoth task.
As you are probably already aware Google is the world leader in terms of search engines and the vast majority of websites are found by searches in one of Google's many search engine sites. In order for your site to appear on page one of the search results when someone enters a search term for which your site would be an ideal response then you need to work on the content of your site, link swapping, and other SEO work.
You could hire an SEO expert to do this for you, but there's much you can do your for yourself.

Not all of them will be relevant to you and your site but many of them can be followed quite easily and with minimal or no cost at all except your time and effort. The main thing to remember is that these are tried and tested methods that do work.
The results may not be instant, so don't expect your site to suddenly appear in the top five positions of page one for your target keyword search term within a matter of days or even weeks, but you will reap the rewards for all your hard work within months. Just keep adding the content, swapping links, writing articles, and otherwise increasing the amount of text that both talks about and points towards your site and the subjects it covers.

How To Succeed With Affiliate Dating Sites – Part 2
In part 1 we summarised the dating affiliate options for the benefit anyone new to this idea. Here in part 2 we will list the many categories and niches available to the budding affiliate marketeer or business.
When one starts imagining and calculating the possible rewards from a successful affiliate campaign it's often easy to overlook the amount of work involved in generating sales. There may also be a desire to sign up for as many of the programs available in the belief that a multiple program approach will increase the chances of results.
However, new affiliates would be better of registering with a carefully chosen small selection of dating affiliate programs first and devoting more energy into promoting this select few rather than wasting time registering for dozens of programs many of which they won't have time to promote. Choose quality over quantity as it's better to generate sales and see a total increase in one network rather than see occasional sales in multiple sites. You'll be paid more quickly!
Remember, the process is quite simple and it's best kept that way:
- Register for one or more affiliate accounts. Choose those that fit the them of your site or blog.
- Familiarise yourself with the various text links, banners, and other tools available for your use.
- Make use of those tools in your website, blog, or email or forum signatures.

How To Succeed With Affiliate Dating Sites – Part 1
Before we try to identify the best dating affiliate programs it might be worth reviewing what we mean by affiliate dating sites and the various types of programs and other options open to anyone thinking of expending time, energy, money on promoting sites.
If you're an experienced affiliate then you can skip the following summaries and proceed to the sections which list the dating site programs available to you. They are categorised by niche or speciality so whatever your personal or business choice it should be possible to quickly determine the right programs for you.
Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is term used to describe the process by which an individual or business promotes or markets any company's products or services with the goal of generating sales which in turn result in commissions earned for the affiliate marketeer. The business or individual who promotes in this way is known simply as an affiliate and the business or brand whose products he/she/they promote is known as the merchant.
The relationship between affiliate and merchant could be direct or through the services of an affiliate network. Affiliate networks manage the affiliate programs for dozens or perhaps hundreds of merchants and at the same time provide detailed performance statistics for both affiliates and merchants. They also provide the affiliates with tools in the form of text, banner, and other linking mechanisms. They may also provide datafeeds and widgets which can greatly assist the affiliate in incorporating the merchants products into the affiliates' website(s).
Affiliates are paid commission on sales usually a month or more in arrears. The commission total usually has to reach a threshold before the affiliate can expect any payment. This gives the merchant time to check that the sales are genuine (no fraud) and final (no returns), and it also helps to streamline the administration for the merchant network.
White Label Dating Sites
White label is a term used to describe a product or service that does not have brand identity assigned to it. White label products can be bought in bulk under license, branded and packaged, then sold to consumers or businesses.
White label dating sites then are websites services that are provided by a company, but which are then promoted by affiliates or partners who put their own brand on the site. The white label company remains in the background providing all the technical and administrative support, while the partners or affiliates carry out all the site promotion. Sales generated from the subscriptions of site members are split between the two partners. Partners can be of any size ranging from individuals working on their own and in their spare time, to small businesses, and to large corporations who have a distinct identity in the market already and who want to add a dating site to their existing presence online.
Niche Dating Sites
Niche dating sites are those designed to cater for a common interest, racial group, origin, belief, occupation or some other aspect of a person's lifestyle which forms a strong and large part of their life and which therefore put them into an identifiable category. The idea of niche dating websites is that 'like attracts like', and that the common interest, background, or belief establishes a bond with anyoe who shares the same outlook.
This idea has been tested and proven many times and there are now hundreds of speciality dating websites. This makes them ideally suited for affiliates who want to join an affiliate dating program because the market much narrower and therefore there is less competition, unlike the general, all purpose dating sites which are much more numerous. If an affiliate already manages a website that is within a particular category then they have the ideal audience for the promotion of a dating site for that niche.
For example, if you run a business site, hobby site, or blog that attracts visitors who share an interest in keeping fit then it makes perfect sense to add links and banners that promote a fitness dating site.

Single Muslim Online Dating
Search for a soulmate
Dating can be very difficult for busy people. With work and family responsibilities, it is difficult to find time to meet people with similar values. For the Muslim community, it is not as simple to find a partner using the traditional means. For someone who is serious about making a romantic connection with someone who shares their religious tradition, Muslim online dating is the right choice.
Without the world wide web, you are only able to make a romantic connection with people who you coincidentally encounter in your daily travels. This is severely limiting. If you are not in a social group which allows you to find the person you want, you will have to look for alternative means to enjoy a romantic match.
Muslim online dating is a service that is serious about connecting people who share a religious tradition. These values define the way of life of thousands of people. This service seeks to connect people, based on their compatibility, who share this religious prerequisite. Serious religious tradition often involves a way of life that is best shared by those who have similar views.
For those who are having a difficult time finding a partner that meets the metrics of compatibility which are important to them, online dating solves the problem. You have a much larger pool from which to select possible romantic matches. This makes it much more likely to occur. You also are able to select from people who share your religious tradition.
This is why so many people count on Muslim online dating to help them find a partner. A romantic match that can stand the test of time requires a very unique and powerful compatibility. Technology can help improve the available options. Thousands connect in this way. If religious values are an important factor in who you would like to meet and possibly connect with, then Muslim online dating might be a good choice. It has become a very popular option for Muslims all over the world.
There's never been better time for Muslims to join a dating site specifically designed for them. According to a report produced by an American think-tank (the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life) there are now 1.57 billion Muslims in th world.
The report was compiled from census data from 232 countries and territories and took three years to be put together. It shows that 60% of Muslims live in Asia while 20% live in North Africa and the Middle East. Europe contains 2% of the world's Muslim population and that means there are about 38 million living there (about 5% of the population of Europe).

Millionaire Dating Agencies & Websites
Sugar Daddy or match of equals?
One of the many niche markets that the online dating world has responded to is millionaires. Millionaire dating websites are now numerous, and they all seek to respond to those male suitors looking for wealthy women and ambitious females searching rich men who can keep them in the lifestyle to which they are either accustomed or to which they aspire.
There's never been any shortage of women willing to step forward to become the companions of wealthy men. Rich and powerful are two words that are often used together and women are attracted to both wealth and influence. As the TV character Mrs. Merton once put it to Debbie Mcgee when interviewing her, "What first attracted you to the millionaire Paul Daniels?"
While some will always question the morals of a woman who wants to become the companion of a millionaire sugar daddy others argue that it's a legitimate lifestyle choice on the grounds that a woman's natural instinct is to feather the nest in which to raise a family so she will be drawn to men who are obvious providers, but of course many women who seek out wealthy men do not have raising a family as their first priority.
Now that women have found wealth and power of their own there are men of varying ages who are drawn to them and wealthy women are sometimes only too happy to become involved with what is often a younger lover. A women may have become rich and successful through her own efforts, but it may have taken twenty years or more to do so and all the wealthy men of her age are either married or being pursued by younger women, so the millionairess does what her unattached male peers are doing and dates a younger partner.
However, the above scenarios are of course based on an unequal match of age and circumstance. What every wealthy man or woman longs for is what everyone else wants; romance, love, and passion, and for millionaires the best possible partner is someone who is equally wealthy so that money does not become the cause of arguments nor conflict in the relationship.
Millionaire dating agencies and websites seek to matchmake like with like but also provide a venue in which the not so wealthy can meet the man or woman of their dreams.

Black Online Dating
Don't miss out on the black dating scene
Single black men and women all over the United States, the United Kingdom as well as the rest of the world, are making increasing use of the Internet to find romance. While some are just plain tired of the traditional dating scene, there are those who would prefer to meet someone that typically would not be found at a club or in a bar. Except for at work, which is often frowned upon and usually just leads to drama, how else would an intelligent, single black man or woman, who actually works for a living, find love?
Dating online is both effective and convenient, and can be a huge boost in self esteem for all those involved. People who engage in online dating are not only bypassing the normal rejections that come with the typical dating scene, but they are able to browse potential mates without feeling like they are being creepy. Just feeling like there might be someone out there, and attaching names and pictures to that someone, can really make a single person feel a lot better about themselves.
With online dating, singles can peruse the profiles of other singles at their leisure. This means that those who work strange shifts need not be left out in the cold because the bars and clubs are neither open before 5 pm, nor would they be terribly interesting if they were. That's because most working class people are probably on a computer somewhere, either at home or work, which makes online dating the best choice for them as well.
Some websites will even filter matches for you so that you do not waste time browsing through every potential partner, instead suggesting matches with people that the system considers compatible. Dating has certainly never been more efficient!
Finding someone that you are compatible with has never been easier than now in the age of the Internet. With all of the online dating website out there that cater to just about any group of people, as well as large groups of people in general, there is no reason for anyone to be single unless that is what they wish.

Asexual or No-Sex Dating Sites
Asexual or no-sex dating sites are designed for those individuals who feel no sexual attraction to others, but who still desire the romance, love, and companionship that relationships and love affairs bring.
Asexuality should not be confused with celibacy, which is the deliberate choice by someone who feels sexual attraction to others to go without sex i.e. opt for abstinence. Asexuals may or may not have sexual feelings within themselves, but the point is that do not have any sexual feelings for another, but they do feel the impulse for romantic love.
We tend to judge people or pigeon-hole them by their sexuality. "If you're not straight, gay or bi then what are you?" Asexuals don't fit into any of these orientations so perhaps they should be listed as the fourth orientation - not heterosexual, homosexual, nor bisexual, but asexual.
Sex seems to be so prevalent that it's easy to imagine that everyone's at it all the time, but the advertising, films, books and TV shows are not a true reflection of society and the habits of many people and they perpetuate the myth that all people need sex in order to be happy. Many do, but not all. Asexuals are proof of opposites and sex relationships developing into romantic and loving relationships but with no sexual attraction felt by either person.
If this strikes a chord with you then perhaps you should register with these asexual dating sites and begin your journey of self-discovery.
