Grindr is generally regarded as a sex app as opposed to a dating app. Knowing this, is it really possible to find love on Grindr?

I believe not everyone uses Grindr solely for sex. There is always a spectrum of men who want different things at different times. From just sex, looking for casual dates to occupy their time, friends with benefits, to searching for something that is more meaningful. There are always men who want to date and start a relationship. It’s just a number’s game.

The danger is that for the ones who claim they want a relationship, many of them checked all those boxes. Their thinking is that before Mr. Right shows up, they can still enjoy their sex adventures and have their fun. What they are not aware of is that they can get easily distracted even when the right guy shows up, especially when someone who’s hotter or sexier approaches them before they have established an intimate connection. 

Connecting with sexy guys is a habit that is hard...

First dates can be a source of anxiety for just about anyone – even the most confident among us! Keep in mind that there are certain topics you should definitely avoid—at least until you know each other a little better. We’ll tackle what not to talk about in the next article.

If you don’t want to be at a loss for words when you’re sitting across from your dream date, here are some great topics you can add to your repertoire when the conversation hits a lull:

1. Have a Sense of Humor

   Dates are about having fun, and first dates, doubly so. If you can share a few laughs it will make for a memorable occasion. If you don’t consider yourself to be a “funny guy”, think about learning a few jokes in advance and get ready to light up his smile.

2. Don’t make it feel like an Interview

   Getting to know somebody will always involve asking questions. Asking what he is looking for in a guy is okay but try to keep it light. Frame your questions...

We are raised to believe that the best of everything can be ours. But when it comes to finding a partner, does this really apply?

When asked what they really want, many men will say that they are on a mission to find the most handsome guy, a sexy body with six-pack abs, the biggest penis, the richest, the most successful, and so on.

So, when you eventually meet someone that clicks, do you find yourself questioning whether or not he is ‘The One?’

It’s not an uncommon scenario. However, these wants/needs are a lot to live up to. In many cases, they are actually unattainable – at least in the way that you imagine. Once you find your perfect match, they may fulfill all these needs in ways that are much different than you originally would have defined.

With this idealist mentality, you could end up chasing rainbows and eventually end up unable to completely commit yourself to someone because you will always be wondering. Is there someone better? Someone who is...

Last time, we talked about how dating apps could ruin your chance of finding your future partner. In this article, we will reveal more about Online Dating.

Why do I need to learn this?

Knowing more about online dating will maximize your chances of finding a potential life partner. If you lack adequate or accurate information, the “myths” of online dating might get in the way of achieving your goal.

What am I going to learn?

Knowledge will help you make better decisions.

Love & Marriage

63 percent of gay and lesbian singles are marriage-oriented. 25 percent say they have never wanted to marry.

When we compare the profiles of couples who have met online and paired up vs. singles, their online traits (the things they state on their profile) are almost identical.

The biggest differences are:

1. The length of their profile

   Singles tended to have shorter profile descriptions (184 words) vs. the coupled, who used an average of 252 words.

   Conclusion: A longer online...

While you shouldn’t completely dismiss the idea of meeting your perfect match through a dating app, if you hinge all of your hopes and efforts on an app, you could ruin your chances of finding “The One”.

Dating apps are useful, but only if they are used wisely. The key is to know an app’s limitations and capacity for giving you what you really want. Because they are easy, convenient, and really good at helping you hook up, it’s easy to get stuck in an endless loop that’s really going nowhere.

How things can go wrong with dating apps

Even great inventions have their limitations. Here are some of the ways things can go wrong:

1. Bad dating app experiences. You may encounter men who have open relationships, are cheating on their partner, are pretending to be single or who just want to hookup.
2. Relying too much on the app. If you are constantly glued to the phone, your soulmate could walk right past you and you won’t see him.
3. Thinking that there...

Relationships are challenging - and starting them is even more so! So, it’s no surprise that looking for the one can be overwhelming at times. However, there are some common mistakes you can avoid in order to move closer to meeting your ideal guy. 

Mistake 1:

Not being the best version of yourself

How many times have you been told ‘Just be yourself and everything will work out on its own’?

It’s a lovely sentiment, and of course, you want to be loved for who you really are - but that doesn’t mean that relationships and dating don’t require effort.

The first step is self-awareness. None of us are perfect - but sometimes our imperfections can have a big impact on the people around us, especially those we are most intimate with. Typically, guys fall into two camps when it comes to understanding themselves. The first group is more aware of their strengths and weaknesses, and continuously work to improve themselves so that they can be happy while...

Flirting is an art - and mastering it can bring you a lot closer to that soulmate you’ve been dreaming of. What’s more, it’s an essential part of romance - creating an atmosphere for attraction (and even love) to blossom.

So how can you master the art of flirting?

Of course, it’s not as easy as all that - flirting means putting yourself out there, and it’s very normal to feel shy, or panic that your crush will reject your attempt and turn you down. However, if you pick your time and place, and follow a few simple guidelines, flirting can be a very effective way of bringing you and the object of your affection closer together.

It doesn’t stop there, either - all healthy relationships, including long-term commitments, benefit from flirting to better sustain romance and passion. So here are a few pointers that’ll help you to find (and keep!) your dream man.

What is Flirting?

Flirting is a behavior that almost everyone indulges in from time to...

We’ve all been there. You’ve been on a few dates with a guy and generally assume that you are “together” - only to find out that his understanding of the relationship was less… exclusive than yours. If this resonates with you, you are in the right place.

In this article, we will try to bring some clarity to the topic of “defining your dates”, shedding light on how different people view relationships - and the different things they may want from them. We’ll also show you how to identify and communicate what you want - giving you the tools you’ll need to ensure that you and your partner are on the same page when it comes to defining your dates.

Types of dating

“Dating” means different things to different people, but at its most basic, it describes the early stages of an intimate relationship; a time when two people are getting to know each other, usually in an effort to determine whether there is the potential...

Picture the scene - a couple is fighting in a movie. One yells ‘‘What do you want from me?!’ and the other replies “I just want you to love me!”

Chances are you’ll have seen this conversation in a dozen different movies - but what exactly do the characters mean?

It might not seem it at first, but this is actually a very difficult question to answer. That’s because love is such a powerful, personal experience that language often struggles to truly capture what we mean when we talk about it.

Love languages help here because they transcend just spoken language. Instead, they cover five key ways in which people communicate their love – and in doing so, offer an insight into the different expectations that people have of their partners. By understanding and mastering these languages, you can move closer to building a connection that stands the test of time.
