The Glamour Of City

Dating online can be great fun, stimulating and exciting. So let’s first get it into perspective. Some of us just like to have fun but are sick of the singles bars and other similar nite spots that are the last resort for finding a decent partner or lover.

They often result in the wrong person even if you are lucky enough to meet someone. Or, you may have once upon a time met someone that ‘fitted the bill’ but over time this has proved not to be the case any longer, so…long story short, you are now once again looking for a better fit.

You might be just plain lonely or recently dumped by that someone who promised to be there forever.

If you’re senior in years, you may just be seeking a companion or someone who has similar interests.

These days, it’s quite likely that you are someone who’s busy most of the time and don’t have the time to go galavanting around the place looking for a date and attending dinner parties with the hope that your friends have selected a decent blind date on your behalf.

Whatever your reason, online dating can definitely help make it happen much sooner than many of the tedious activities which most of us have experienced at some stage. Of course, you are also able to do this late at night (24/7) in your ‘jim jams’ when you have the time or better still, the inclination.

If you’ve found what you believe to be a quality site, and it has a large enough database to support your searches, then you’re half way there. While I’m on it, you would be best to register with 2 or 3 dating sites so that you can spread you options that much further.

This brings us to an extremely important consideration and the most imperative part of the process – Your Safety!

I won’t pretend to have all the answers, but as much as Internet dating sites have proven time after time that they ‘deliver the goods’, someone nasty or let me say unscrupulous turns up.

These loathsome characters can be easily avoided simply by following these rules and proceeding with caution. Follow these guidelines and you will enjoy what could be the beginning of a wonderful relationship without taking any risks.

If you’re smart, these points will become your checklist and eventually a habit.

Remain anonymous – do not reveal your real identity, email address, home address, telephone numbers, your birthday or indeed, your place of work during your early days of communication.

Don’t be dissuaded from the above point!

If you are operating from home check your ISP server to ensure your profile is not revealing more than you’d like.

Use alternative email services for dating (I have listed FREE services at the bottom of this page).

Take your time in your first telephone discussions – ask questions (nicely) remembering that they are probably in the same position as you.

When you do decide to meet for the first time, make sure it’s in a public place ie. Coffee shop etc. Do not meet at each others home or anywhere secluded or remote.

Take a mobile with you and more importantly, tell a friend or relation where you are going. Some people even have a friend turn up and sit at another table for comfort – without anyone else knowing of course.

Here’s the last point – stick to all the above points no matter what!

Here are some sites for free email services to help you remain anonymous;

Atlink.com

Bigfoot.com

Email4

life.com

Netforward.com

Netaddress.com

Mailzone.com

Hotmail.com

Follow these rules and on-line dating can lead you to great friendships, lovers and often marriage.

Enjoy!

While I was not that impressed of her acting talent in Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, Megan Fox’s looks during the films various premieres throughout the world was another story. – Totally impressive!

Curious as to how hot Megan’s looks were during the film’s premieres? Here are some photos:

Wearing a white jersey Kaufman Franco gown for the flick’s L.A. premiere, isn’t Megan just hotter than all the Greek goddesses combined? I already am a fan of goddess-inspired gowns but this one just got me speechless. Just wow!

I am not really raving over pink frocks as I find them too girlie but this fuschia print strapless Armani Privé Fall 2007 dress that the actress wore for Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen Moscow premiere was nothing girlie at all. With that fierce look and flowing sex appeal, who would think of girlie? This is one hot woman!

Attending the red carpet of the film’s UK premiere, the femme fatale that she is went classic elegance (but never without a hint of sexiness) with a black v-neck high twist jersey Kaufman Franco gown. Black may seem to be a safe choice for a celebrity fashion; in fact there’s nothing really stunning with the frock, but with Megan putting it on, the gown has transformed to something hypnotic. Whew!

While she went covered for the film’s UK premiere, her look in Germany was nothing but covered.

In a Roberto Cavalli maroon gown with a thigh high split, plus a gold snake framing the cut-out detail on her hip, would you ever doubt why more and more men go crazy over her despite the lack of talent?

Now with someone as h-o-t as Megan Fox, who could fault her for getting more fans even if she’s lacking in the talent department?

Well I’m actually more of a Robert Pattinson a.k.a. Edward Cullen fan than a Taylor Lautner a.k.a. Jacob Black fan. However, when I saw this photo of the latter attending the 2009 CFDA Fashion Awards, I’m honestly thinking of a change of heart. *Giggles*

Oh well, while that might not come too easy (I still am in-love with Edward, really) I thought having Taylor here in Celebrity Fashion Watch as our Beautiful Man of the Week would be enough to acknowledge the actor’s hunk and cuteness factor.

So aside from playing Jacob Black in Twilight, who is Taylor Lautner? Here are some information you might be interested to find out.

Born Taylor Daniel Lautner on February 11, 1992, Taylor is an American actor who, aside from being part of the Twilight flick, is also known for playing the cutie superhero, Sharkboy in The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D.

If you find the 17-year-old’s gorgeousness a bit uncommon in Hollywood, well that’s because he’s from French, Dutch, German, and Native American ancestry (I wonder why most mixed-blood celebrities stand out more often than pure ones).

Coming with that good looks and acting talent, Taylor’s a martial artist too ranked number one in the world for NASKA’s Black Belt Open Forms, Musical Weapons, Traditional Weapons and Traditional Forms. Now that’s just H-O-T, isn’t it?

Anyway, if you can’t get over Taylor’s hotness, here are more snapshots of him during the 2009 CFDA Fashion Awards. Compared to his being half-naked in New Moon, I think I love seeing Taylor more suited up.

Cosmetics oneself or to hire a pro? When the major make-up artists do not hesitate to offer packages to 280 Euros (yes, you read correctly!) The issue to disguise oneself arises …

I choose a makeup artist if:

- I have the means. That is to say that I will not eat pasta with butter 6 months to cover the cost of makeup …

- I know what I want. This would be a shame to give free rein to flights of lyrical master of makeup and ending up with eyes to Amy Winehouse and the lips of The Mask …

I do make-up by myself if:

- I am not alone in the preparations. It takes a good mind to tell you to stop before blush look like Sue Ellen Ewing after 3 glasses of whiskey

- I have good material: suitable brushes, pencils sharpened, foundation of new and good quality …

Focus on the tone: we chose a more clear that his skin to test, take the palm of the wrist. Files on a few drops on the smooth face before (is not applied as a cream). Of course, in advance, on a well hydrated skin, and just after, on powder to avoid shine.

Hints and tips wedding Vogue, according to your body:

Enlarge his eyes: put the white far corner of the eye and lengthening mascara

The shrink: pencil inside the eye and apply mascara thickening

Refine its nose put blush on bottom and dark sides, and draw a line clear stop

Note: You can read more Beijing dating tips here and where are the best places to meet them in Beijing.

For a start, we will learn how to introduce YOU to the lady:

I’m Peter : “Wo Shi Peter” (please change you name accordingly)

That’s easy, right?

Anyway, my experience tells me that it’s good to tell the Chinese girls that your Chinese is crap. And you know it’s probably true.

How do you say “Pardon me, my Chinese is crap.” in Chinese?

- “Dui bu qi, wo de pu tong hua bu hao.” – Sorry, my Chinese is no good.

- “Dui bu qi” – Sorry

- “Wo de” – My

- “Pu tong hua” – Chinese Language

- “Bu Hao” – No Good

The Chinese girls will usually reply with a smile/giggle:” It’s good!” – “Hao!“.

Please realize early that they are only patronizing you.

Well, here are some more tips to note when chatting up Chinese girls:

Dos & Don’ts’ When Talking to a Chinese Girl

Beijing Dating Tips One

Please do not stare at their boobs. I know this rule applies to all women but it’s considered extremely rude in Asian culture. A glance of a mere 2 seconds at most will do – It’s a Science for me!

Beijing Dating Tips Two

It is normal that the Chinese girls may not look at you in the eyes while talking to you. They are not being rude – Shyness is seen as a virtue amongst the Chinese girls.

Beijing Dating Tips Three

Please do not speak loudly and in a brash manner. I have seen some loud-mouthed Rednecks chatting up Chinese girls with no results! – Gentle is key to success.

Beijing Dating Tips Four

As with most girls, speak slowly and allow the girls to respond. Even if the reply is in broken English, please try not to point out their mistakes during your first encounter/ date. Why? This can be seen as you trying to embarrass them – FACE VALUE Matters in China!

Beijing Dating Tips Five

Speaking from experience, I usually compliment the Chinese girls for their spoken English, no matter how bad it may be. I guess you can see it as returning the favor to them for praising your badly spoken Chinese – Everyone loves to be complimented!

OK, I guess this should be all.

Now, continue to learn more common Chinese phrases!

Your country of origin

I’m American: “Wo Shi Mei Guo Ren”

I’m Irish: “Wo Shi Ai Er Lan Ren “

I’m English: “Wo Shi Ying Guo Ren”

I’m Australian: “Wo Shi Ao Da Li Ya Ren ”

I’m Canadian: “Wo Shi Jia Na Da Ren ”

I’m a New Zealander: “Wo Shi Xin Xi Lan Ren “

I’m Welsh: “Wo Shi Wei Er Shi Ren “

Flattery- It’s a must especially in China!

Beautiful eyes! – “Piao Liang Yan Jing” (Eyes: “Yan Jing”)

You’re very sexy! – “Ni Hen Xing Gan!” (Sexy: “Xing Gan”)-Used this term sparingly unless the girl is a real knockout! To some girls, the word “sexy” could be rude but I guess the Chinese gals are much more open than before especially in Beijing and Shanghai.

You’re very slim – “Ni Hen Miao Tiao” (Slim: “Miao Tiao”)

Your English is very good – “Ni De Ying Yu Hen Hao” (English: “Ying Yu”) – They love to hear this! I lie almost all the time, including my wife.

You’re very fair – “Ni Hen Bai” (literal translation – You’re very white)

Are you a model? - “Ni Shi Mo Te r?” (Model: “Mo Te r”, trust me girls love this best!)

You’re the BEST! – “Ni Zui Hao” (“Zui” means Most)

You’re the most beautiful girl – “Ni Zui Piao Liang!”
