I was recently told a story about online dating and it made me realise how dangerous online dating actually is. I know that i fyou 'play it safe' you normally don't get hurt, but what I didn't realise was how safe you actually had to play it. The story was told to me by someone who wishes to remain anonymous. The woman believes that Lavalife has so many members and is the 'biggest dating site on the internet' because they allow cyber bullies to produce hundreds of profiles. The woman who told me this story joined Lavalife because she was lonely, she had just moved states. She chose to meet this man because she thought she knew him. She had talked to him for four weeks beforehand. After she met him the lies began. He told her he wasn't single, that he instrad had a girlfriend but wasn't happy in the relationship and only stayed because of his child, he also told her that his girlfriend was a hitwoman and had gang connections.

When to say I love you

Friday, October 10. 2008 Read more »

When you fall in love with some when is it the right time to tell them those three magic words? I love you. It's hard to say when the right time is; you really can't base it on an exact science. I think the most important factor to consider when preparing to say it to a partner is whether you do in fact love them; go over this in your head and if the answer is yes then chances are you're ready to say it. Don't just say it, do it. Love is not just a feeling; it's an action. Saying it without showing it is, in a way, a lie. Express your love in action as well as in words.
