As dating apps are becoming less and less appealing to people. 

What  alternatives  for singles/ couples would you like to be offered to find a mate or playmates ?

Have a great week and weekend 

Carlos 😀

Are you a morning lark who wakes up with the first rays of sunlight, or a night owl who thrives when the moon is high in the sky? Understanding your chronotype can reveal a lot about your daily habits, productivity, and overall well-being.

Whether you're curious about your sleep patterns or simply want to settle the age-old debate of morning versus night  I hope you find this useful 

Look forward to hearing from you 

Carlos The early bird 😀

A sigma male aka the lone wolf is a confident, self-reliant, charming, mysterious, and introverted man. 

He’s not ready to commit to anyone and only has a few friends in his life.

He’s almost the same as an alpha male but he doesn’t have a pack following him. He loves risks and adventures and is a self-aware man

Does this sound like you ? 

Look forward to hearing your thoughts 

Have a great week Carlos 😀

Since we can't go back in time what advice would you give your younger self?

Have a great week

Here are a few questions to txt your Crush  while dating 

Would you rather give up carbs or making out?

Would you rather drink water or coffee?

Would you rather take a spontaneous vacation, or plan your itinerary in advance?

Would you rather be the big spoon or the little spoon ? 

Would you rather spend an evening at a club or home watching a movie?

Would you rather date someone who is exactly like you or the complete opposite?

Would you rather take a year off work to travel or learn something you’ve always wanted to?

Can you think of any more ? 
 

I look forward to hearing your thoughts 

Have fun 

Carlos 😀

You’ve heard it all before: millennials are lazy, baby boomers are mega-rich and as for Generation Z, they see more of their phone screen than their own family.

But what do these different labels actually mean, and do any of the stereotypes attached to them contain any grains of truth or are you a Boomer, Gen X, Y iGen Cocktail ? 

Does it positively influence the type of people you meet giving you a rich pool of people to interact with and choose from ? 

Baby Boomers

They’re so named because of the huge surge of births after World War Two. 

committed

self-sufficient

competitive 

Generation X

They grew up in a time when technology was advancing fast, but it wasn’t nearly as readily available as it is today. Because of this, this generation straddles both the digital and non-digital world, and understands the importance of both and are:

resourceful

logical

good problem-solvers

Millennials (Generation Y)

They’re often described as ‘lazy’ in the media and that they spend all the money they should be saving for a house on avocado toast, but they’re also the first generation to be “digital natives”, this makes them extremely self-sufficient, as they no longer have to rely on others to solve their problems or teach them things - they have the internet for that.

confident

curious

questioning authority 

Generation Z (iGen) 

This group is young, and has never known a life without tech, value diversity and finding their own unique identities, , is highly collaborative and social, values flexibility, relevance, authenticity and non-hierarchical leadership, and, while dismayed about inherited issues like climate change, has a pragmatic attitude about the work that has to be done to address those issues.

ambitious

digital-natives

confident

Generation Alpha

Has grown up in a world where technology and the internet have always been a part of their daily lives. As a result, they have certain traits that set them apart from previous generations.

High tech-savviness 

Diverse and Globally minded 

Adaptable & Resilient 

Look forward to hearing your thoughts 

Have a great day and week

It’s no secret that introverts are not as vocal about their feelings as extroverts. In fact, the quiet ones often feel like their thoughts are better off left unsaid. But if you’re paying close attention, there may be some telltale signs that an introvert secretly likes you.

- They answer the call.

- They give you half of their 'alone time' (this is a huge sign!)

- They go out with you to socialize.

- They make you their priority.

Look forward to hearing your thoughts if there is anything else to look out for 

Have a great day and week

Carlos 😀

Have you ever been asked to discuss your greatest strength on a date?
 

When asked this question, what comes to mind? 

I’ve been told I’m very good listener and empowering people to follow their passion and dreams

Look forward to hearing your thoughts guys 

Have a great day and week

It can be a fun ice-breaker Are You an Extrovert or Introvert?

While we tend to identify with either the introspective introvert or the outgoing extrovert, figuring out where you fall on the personality spectrum isn’t always that simple so here are a few characteristics of each to help you understand yourself, friends and lovers better: 

Some characteristics of an introvert include:

You’re a natural listener.

You enjoy alone time.

You avoid conflict.

You consider things carefully.

You’re creative.

Some characteristics of an extrovert include:

You enjoy working in a group.

You’re always up to try new things.

You can be impulsive.

You like to talk through problems.

You make friends easily.

Nothing is set in stone and you can be a mixture of the two maybe a introvert  by day at work and extrovert night 

Look forward to hearing your thoughts guys 

Have a great week Carlos 😀

These days, many of us are quick to call out red flags in potential partners and in the relationships we see unfolding around us. Green flags, on the other hand, tend to get a lot less attention.

The terms come simply from the idea that green means good to go, while red means stop and watch out. Red flags call attention to issues; green flags signal that you're safe to proceed.

They listen well 

The relationship moves at a comfortable pace

They know what they want

They're kind—consistently

They're easy to be around

They treat others well, too

Do you have any other green- flags to add look forward to hearing your thoughts 

Have a great week and weekend 

Carlos 😀

The illustrious first date can be wrought with a combination of excitement and nervousness, causing you to potentially become tongue-tied and paralyzed when you are sitting across from that hottie not knowing what to say next.

Never fear! Below is a list of potential topics you can have at your disposal should your mind go blank or if one of those horrifying moments of silence occurs.

Do talk about your requirements for a relationship.

Do talk about interests and hobbies.

Do talk about your passions and inquire about his.

Hope this helps guys is there anything you would add ?

Look forward to hearing your thoughts guys 

Carlos 😀

They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach and personally  I love Italian, French and Spanish cuisines

So if your crush could cook for your what is your favourite food and why?     

 Buon appetito! 

Carlos 🙂 

So I recently read about a well-known comedian who had a light-bulb moment that he had a fixer mentality sort of like a white knight, often gravitating towards those he can rescue in relationships personally and professionally  does this connect with  you and do you think it is the  result of some events you  experience in early childhood ?

Hope this topic is ok for the moderators

Look forward to hearing your thoughts

Have a great weekend
 

Carlos 🙂

Their speed and strength are unmatched, and when they are at their best, hardly anyone can beat them.
 

So in honour of the Flash Movie out June 16th The question is, if Flash and Superman/ Supergirl ever fought each other, who would win and why?

Have a fun week and weekend guys

Carlos  😀

You’ve heard it a million times: opposites attract. Heck, we were all raised on romanticised versions of this so it's kind of hard not to buy into this concept.

Apparently when it comes to romantic compatibility, many people first think of similarities for example, if you and your partner are both total alphas in relationships, you’re probably going to butt heads when it comes to fairly simple stuff, like deciding where you want to go eat on any given date night.

So, what’s the deal here? Do people match up best with others who are nothing like them? Are introverts a perfect match for extroverts and vice versa? What about partiers and homebodies? Night owls and early risers?

Look forward to hearing your thoughts guys  have a great week and weekend

Has it ever dawned on you that your partner may not experience love the same way you do? If you have been together a while, you may have figured this out by now. Lest there be any doubt, a great question to ask your partner is, what’s your love language?

So what are the five languages of love? Here is a description of each to help you figure out what are your favorites and also so you can discover which ones make your partner feel especially cared for.

Words of Affirmation

Words of affirmation acknowledge effort, deeds, and accomplishments. It could be words like, “I’m proud of the way you handled the situation”, or “your help made all the difference”, or even words of praise such as, “you look amazing tonight!” For the person that thrives on this love language, remember to use words of appreciation to fill their cup.

Quality Time

Quality time is about spending uninterrupted time together enjoying each other’s company. I highly recommend putting your phone aside if this is your partner’s favorite love language. Carving time out of your busy schedules to have date night, morning coffee, or an activity together, such as a bike ride, are ways to say I love you with quality time.

Gifts

When a person’s favorite love language is gifts, it doesn’t mean that the person is materialistic. Receiving gifts is special to the person because they feel that their loved one was keeping them in mind. When returning from a trip, or even, just because, giving a small gift or picking up fresh flowers really lets them know you care. Also, be sure to remember birthdays and other special occasions if your partner’s favorite love language is gifts.

Acts of Service

Acts of service is about practical ways of giving help. For example, “Hey honey, let me grab the groceries and you can sit and relax.” Or knocking out some extra chores that you know your partner will want done is another great way to say I love you. Even though it may seem unromantic to you if this is not your love language, think in terms of practical to-dos if your partner feels loved by acts of service. Haven’t you ever heard how, for some people, cleaning the kitchen is a wonderful form of foreplay?

Physical Affection

Some people feel most loved by the language of touch. This can include displays of affection as well as sexual intimacy. Holding hands, a hug or sexual activities say, I love you, for the person whose favorite love language is physical affection. Even small gestures such as sitting close, holding hands, or a welcome home kiss can go a long way to let your partner feel your love. If this is your partner’s favorite, take your time and don’t rush past these acts of connection.

let me know your thoughts and have a fun week

Let me know  your thoughts

In a world full of complexity and prejudice would you consider being in an interracial relationship?

There seems to be a lot of confusion on dating apps who  is top and who is versatile (top/bttm) and expectations in the sack.. 

Just out of curiosity are there ‘invisible rules of which nationality or type of person  in your opinion do you accept to be versatile and which type of person and nationality you accept or expect to be top? 

Have fun with this one 

Karl 😀

The world of dating has changed drastically, especially in the past decade. With smartphones has come the explosion of mobile dating apps making the quest for love easier in some ways – and harder in others.

Gone are the days of booking a romantic dinner or whiling away the evening in a dimly lit bar. Micro-dates normally occur during the day – perhaps a quick coffee at lunch or a swift drink after work before both parties go on to other engagements. Convenience is key, so possible suitors are seen in spare – otherwise unused – snippets of the day and cut down costs. 

Who’s Doing It? 

Well, everyone. Micro-dating is far from just the domain of swipe-happy 20-something Tinder users. In fact it seems to be most popular with those searching for love second time around.

in short is speed-dating on steroids .. 

What do you think could Micro -Dating work for you ? 

Have fun everyone 

Karl 😀
