I think it’s important, once in a while, to think about who your love icons are. Especially in the world of online matchmaking, where we are faced with so many possibilities, it can be disturbingly easy to lose site of what you want in life. I know that we should all be open to the unexpected, especially in our romantic lives, but you still have to have some idea about what you want and where you’re going.

The issue of who your love icons are might be something to think about when writing an online personals profile or even responding to one. Even when we sit down and describe exactly what we want in a relationship, there is still always room for ambiguity. It’s not like love icons can all mean the same thing to all of us, but examples do tend to help clarify things.

I think the love icons a lot of people would hold up are pretty weird. The characters in a harlequin romance type novel tend to make me vomit a little bit. They are so far outside of the realm of reality that I don’t know how to deal with them. Worse, the fantasies they promote seem kind of disturbing to me. They make a big show of having strong, independent characters, but invariably someone is in need of rescuing.

Ironically, I find the more troubled images of love come closer to what I would call healthy love icons. Take, for example, a movie called Before Sunset. The characters are rather bitter. I’m not really sure I even like them. I do, however, like the way they interact. I think style has a lot more to do with these things than anything else, I like the way the conversations in the film are serious and lighthearted in the same breath. It’s a vague thing that I can’t describe well, which is why I’m so happy for the example.

I don’t know if there are many Jeanette Winterson fans out there, so maybe her books can’t qualify as icons, but she wrote one novel called Written On The Body. If I remember right, the first line is “it’s the cliches that cause all the problems.” The book then sets about undermining every cliche about love that you can think of while being, at the same time, a very sincere love story. The point being, I think, that once you’ve understood what your ideals are, and how you relate to them, things become a lot clearer.

I believe that thinking about what our ideals are and being able to articulate those ideas, might help us all understand what we want from each other.

Sometimes a guy just wants to go out with someone to have la ittle no-strings-attached fun. Sex dating sites are just the place for you to meet that sexy sweety that you’re after. It’s not always as easy as the media would have us believe it is to meet a sex partner. Random girls at the grocery store don’t generally appreciate sexual advances (found that out the hard way) and drunk girls in bars are, well, drunk girls.

Finding a sexy cutie to spend an evening of frivolous frolicking can be as easy as the click of a mouse. Well, maybe just a little more complicated than that. All that is involved though, is putting together a profile that is honest and open about what it is that you’re looking for. It’s a much better forum to try to meet partners than approaching complete strangers at, for example, the bus stop.

I see it on the movies all the time, guys going up to girls on the street and suddenly they’re in bed together. While I would really want for these kind of things to be true, it never, ever has happened to me. That’s not to say that I’ve never met a girl in a bar and gone home with her. It’s just that, well, we all know how those situations end up. It’s much better to make a sober, informed choice than to have to wake up quickly and dress quietly, hoping not to wake up last night’s fling.

In case you’ve been thinking about starting up a fling with that sexy sweety that’s constantly flirting with you at the office, let me offer this piece of advice: Don’t Do It! Nothing is worse than the morning after when you’re so uncomfortable that you just want to crawl under your desk. Believe me, I’ve been there.

Romance, love and sex are not all the same thing. They can all fall into the same category and it’s nice when those things occur in tandem, but sometimes you just need to scratch that proverbial itch. You know what I mean, right? You’re bound to find at least one sexy sweety that you’ll be compatible with on any one of the many sex dating sites that are available. You’ll be able to find a gal with similar interests and desires, so that first time together will be even less uncomfortable than it usually is. Knowing what someone likes from the get-go makes it easy to just cut to the chase.

All this is to say that, while it’s not as easy as movies lead us to believe to find some random girl in some random location to have sex with, sex dating sites could be your key to sexual liberation. After all, we’re all guaranteed life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, aren’t we?

I never would have suspected, but apparently just being a sexy Latin woman can be hazardous to the health. I always figured being beautiful made life easier. It certainly makes you what everyone searching the dating personals dreams of, but apparently being the object of everyone’s desire also makes you the target of jealous reprisals.

I have to confess, I’ve never been able to take beauty pageants seriously. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a sucker for a pretty face and I appreciate the body of a beautiful woman as much as the next guy. The thing is, I just can’t imagine anyone with real substance taking part in such an event.

I mean, I never actually sat down and watched a beauty pageant so maybe I’m missing something, but when I think of a competition my head is instantly filled with phrases like “I want world peace.” Now, that is, of course, a noble goal, but it isn’t really a practical goal one can work towards. It’s better than not wanting world peace, but I still appreciate people that have more concrete objectives in life. I guess there are all kinds of people in the world though, so someone is bound to disagree with me and think a beauty queen would make a fit bride.

Anyway, I’m digressing. Back to the danger! I just saw an article on the BBC News about Ingrid Marie Rivera who competed and one a beauty pageant in Puerto Rico even after her efforts were sabotaged. Apparently someone covered all of her clothes in pepper spray and even mixed it into her makeup. This happened to her not once, but twice

Now, in spite of all my preconceptions of beauty pageant winners and my suspicions about the substance of people that take part in them, I’ve got to say that this sexy Latin woman is one tough cookie. I had a friend who, as part of his police training, was pepper sprayed to give him an idea of what to expect if it ever happened to him. It was bad. He’s a tough guy and I’ve never seen him in such rough shape. He at least got a couple of days off afterward. Anyone that can stand up and keep the show going when something like that has just happened to them is a real trooper.

I’m not the kind of person that has ‘celebrity crushes.’ I don’t watch movies or television and dream of being with some sexy starlet. I don’t fantasize about being some movie star’s date to the Oscars or anything like that. There is one gal, however, for whom I do have a particular fondness. For some reason Sofia Coppola is a gal that I find myself giving more attention to than I might normally be inclined to at the best of times. I’m not sure that Italian Dating is the way I should necessarily be going, but it does seem as though more and more beautiful, Italian women are catching my eye these days.

I don’t think I’d be the kind of person that could be that guy that just tags along to his partner’s movie sets. I might not mind catching the sun in Cannes or something, but I’m pretty sure that just being ‘the boyfriend’ or ‘the husband’ would not be quite fulfilling enough for me.

I’m not sure I’d be all that attracted to constantly being in the public eye either, no matter how many beautiful, Italian women wanted me on their arms. Living a life in the spotlight if you’re famous must be hard enough, but if you’re the partner of someone famous and it’s a constant battle to find privacy, I think it would put a strain on a relationship. Then again, if it were someone like Sophia, I might be inclined to think about that a little more kindly. One never knows where one’s life is going to lead, but I think I can be reasonably certain that it’s not going to lead me to shacking up with a famous and beautiful film director.

I’ve never dated an Italian woman, but I’m sure that the stereotypes that have been created in movies and television are not going to ring true for all beautiful, Italian women. I mean, they can’t all be control freaks, can they? Sometimes you take the good with the bad, though, and I’m always willing to overlook someone’s faults to try to find their good side. Everyone has some good in them, I’ve found. I’m willing to bet that a beauty like Sofia Coppola has several things going for her. Again, I’m sure I would be willing to find out.

In the meantime, I just find it kind of fun to allow my mind to wander to places it doesn’t generally go. If all the time I ever spend with Sofia is in my head, well, it’ll just have to do.
