The book is baded on my real life experiences as an older man in the Dating game for over 15 years. After years in the dating game I experienced many events, situations, and types of women. I look at these experiences honestly and humorously. The statuses of women that an older man has available for dating are reviewed. Also what a single man needs to do to attract desirable women and where and how to go to meet desirable women are discussed, because we all know where to meet undesirable women. The pleasures and pitfalls of dating, romance, and sex are discussed. It does not show how to solve all dating problems, but most of the dating problems to avoid are discussed. It seems that both men and women hate dating and it is our own fault. I encourage men to take control of their life and their dating. The book desribes the characteristics that men desire in women and the characteristics which men find not tolerable in women. It also describes the places to meet women and which are good and which are a waste of time and money. It is an honest, humorous and witty look at this confusing and illogical part of our social life.

From A Virtual Fling To The Real Thing: Diary Of An Internet Relationship provides a humorous narrative of a developing romance as the reader follows the true story of how the authors met over the Internet. From the tentative musings of Claire as she first spots Sam's photograph on a dating site, overcomes her resistance to Internet dating and finally makes the decision to contact Sam to their actual first meeting two and a half months later after several hundred e-mail exchanges, the book provides an insightful look into the thoughts, feelings and viewpoints of two strangers as they virtually come to know each other. From A Virtual Fling To The Real Thing portrays the situation from both the female and the male perspective allowing a glimpse into both sides of the story, through their e-mails and their own individual reflections. It is a unique, personal and factual look at one couple's successful experience with internet dating. As in a 'face-to-face' romance you follow along with their hopes, their doubts, their anxieties and ultimately their joy. While the book, written in diary format, has been slightly fictionalized, the story is factual. The characters, Claire and Sam represent the authors. Their feelings reflect what the authors felt during their months of e-mail communication. Although some of the emails contained in the book have been slightly edited, they are the original ones the couple sent to each other over the two and a half month period before they met. The book details their emotional journey filled with hope and humor towards one another before their first date and their impressions upon finally meeting in person. The book represents what can happen if people are willing to take a chance and virtually believe in romance. And of course, the ending is real.

Without Embarrassment: The Social Coward's Totally Fearless Seduction System Harness the perfect High Status Male Attitude to create instant attraction in any woman that you please, by projecting the powerful Dominant Male Persona that she finds so irresistibly attractive. A Good Rap is Crucial The most important skill any man can possess is the ability to know when and how to approach a woman with romantic intent -- and to do so in a very classy way. Humans court with conversation -- both verbal and non-verbal -- so you must have an effective rap in order to capture the romantic interest of women, or you are dead, dead... dead! But you can't develop any real skill in this area if your fear of being rejected blocks your ability to interact with women socially... to make mistakes, learn from them, and thus improve your game. So it's a good thing that... You Can Become Fearless A deep-seated fear of being rejected by a woman is a tough phobia to crack, but it can be overcome with specific knowledge and training. My 'Social Coward's Method' is a process that you can easily master which will allow you to act free of the choking fear that you often feel when trying to meet women. Develop Your Seductive Intelligence Without Embarrassment is not some "pick-up chicks" book that expects you to play a bull-in-a-china-store type of numbers game by hitting on every female in sight -- blow your ego to smithereens -- and leave the pieces lying all over the floor. Instead, it will teach you how to develop a kind of gentle, seductive intelligence that an amazing number of women (some that you wouldn't ever expect) will find absolutely charming. Automatic Female Submission is the Ultimate Goal A man who knows how it's done can set off mating triggers buried deep within a woman's subconscious mind. Powerful instinctual forces will then compel her to submit to what she perceives to be a dominant male. Seduction becomes an enjoyable pastime that you can play at your leisure once you understand these principles. Using Without Embarrassment's unique socializing methods you will learn how to... Overcome the mental 'shame & shyness' blocks that are holding you back from saying something clever and useful when you see a pretty girl... blocks that lie at the root of your rejection sensitivity. Avoid sending out those deadly "I've been defeated by other men..." signals that low status males broadcast all over the place. Become skilled at advanced psychological techniques that will compel any woman to respond to your advances favorably -- so that you don't get rejected again and again and have to keep crawling back into your hermit shell! Remove the shame-fueled rage that prevents you from developing long term intimate connections with women. Make fantastic first impressions in less than 3 minutes. Break the destructive cycle of rejection / self-castigation, over-thinking and other self-defeating behaviors that are holding you down socially... forever! Stop being friends with women and start getting laid! The key to everything when it comes to being romantically successful with women is learning how to project the image of the High Status Male. Without Embarrassment: The Social Coward's Totally Fearless Seduction System will show you how easy it is to begin using your brainpower to serve your needs for a change, instead of short-circuiting them. I invite you to visit the Official Author's Website where you'll find Reader Reviews, Articles about Relationship Topics, and the Author's regularly updated Q&A E-mail Forum.

Forty years of research into human behavior have made it quite clear that those who achieve the highest levels of success and happiness in life do so not only by managing to avoid the three most common mistakes which people make in relating to one another (described below) but also by developing the little-known skills needed to build life-long, deeply-rewarding relationships with their spouse and children, as well as mutually satisfying relationships with their neighbors, co-workers and whoever else is among the most important persons in their lives. Relationships are gradually destroyed when individuals get involved in more-and-more frequent and ever-more devastating arguments. The most frequent reason for such occurrences is that one party finds fault with the other and verbalizes it in the form of criticism, blame or complaint. A second contributing factor is that the target of the fault-finding almost always becomes defensive --- he or she offers an explanation, a justification, or an excuse for the offending behavior. The third component, and often the driving force behind the conflagration, is the belief on the part of each person that he or she is "right" and the other person is "wrong". The lack of self understanding and self control implicit in such attitudes and behaviors can itself be traced back to the fact that they were never taught more appropriate responses during their growing-up period. Without even trying, they learned poor habits of communication from their parents who had in turn inherited them from their own parents. The solution lies in their learning to become much more alert to their inner feelings (especially those of annoyance and anger), to learn how to exert control over them, and to learn what they should do differently in order to reduce or eliminate interpersonal problems. This book provides that learning.

Set against a background of hugely irrational social dysfunction and restlessness, the essence of the book concerns the ideal of people growing into a sufficient wholeness, integration and contentment in their identity. This requires all of us to take due account of each component of our personality (body, intellect, soul-spirit, emotion, and creativity) and intentionally nurturing these. Then, at each life-stage, we may function better as healthy citizens in family and community settings, being effective as role models, mentors and leaders in varied levels and contexts. The book therefore challenges us to take our whole nature seriously as individuals, within the reality of our social, physical and emotional inter-dependence. It calls for new vision, in particular amongst educators, parents and others in the caring professions, including politicians, warning that without new enlightenment upon our relationships, with self, other, society and the environment, our highly unstable social ecologies will remain grossly inefficient, and swiftly become unsustainable. After noting that 'future shock' has arrived, the first part of the book is devoted to outlines of 'the natural nature of persons', the 'givens' of the human situation. The second part focuses upon practical aspects of policy renewal that can offer grounded hope for more people attaining 'a good life', living and loving authentically in community. Two helpful summarizing appendices are provided on 'mentoring' and on 'human attachment', themes which feature throughout the main text. In their relaxed, uncomplicated, wise and spiritually illuminating conversations, the authors lead readers through implicit underlying questions of meaning and purpose in human life with sensitivity. Helpfully, they refer engagingly to their own problematic experiences of 'getting a life'. Matters of spirituality and faith are discussed with compassion and without dogma, noting that, without some understanding of our selves, including matters of brain and emotional development, 'religious beliefs' that lose sight of our basic need to receive, give and propagate 'reliable love' can be more of a problem than a solution within contemporary human living.
