One of the really difficult things about the world we live in is how isolated we are from our neighbors. If you live in a big city, there might be someone two doors down with whom you have virtually everything in common, but whom you’ve never seen. The neighborhood in which you live might have very little to do with the community of people in which you circulate. One of the really interesting capacities of the internet is to put you in touch with a community that you wouldn’t know how to access otherwise. A friend of mine told me that when he moved for work, he used Arab Dating sites not just to look for romance but to put himself in contact with a whole community of Arab-Americans in his new city.

It’s important to feel that you’re connected to a community that understands and shares your roots. When anyone moves to a new town they’re bound to feel a little disoriented, but I’m told by my friend that it can be particularly difficult for Arab-Americans and other minority groups in places where they don’t have large communities. The Internet is a really good way of finding people looking to make connections.

Now, of course, when anyone uses a dating site they’re generally looking to take a walk down lover’s lane, so to speak, but all kinds of unexpected things can happen. My friend met a lot of women online before he finally found the one he’s stayed with, but, while he didn’t find romance with these women, he did meet some people that became very good friends to him. He went from not having a very happy life to having a good community of friends in a pretty short time, all through the contact he made online.

There are a lot of happy endings for online matches, but there are probably more mismatches. Still, this shouldn’t discourage anyone. Maybe most of the people you meet won’t become the love of your life, but that’s true of most of the people you meet anywhere. The great thing about online dating is that you meet people who you wouldn’t ordinarily meet who can open up entire worlds for you that you didn’t know existed. They may not be exactly what you were looking for, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t good for you.

If I think back to the times that I’ve had girls kissing me, I tend to really only remember three or four. It’s not that there have been so many, it’s more that I’ve only been kissed in such a manner as to have it be imprinted on my brain just a few times. Some may say that I’m lucky to have been kissed at all and I tend to agree. I must say that I’m always surprised by the girls who turn out to be the most passionate kissers. I wouldn’t have expected it with most of them. I even met one gal through a site where one can meet adult singles online that turned out to be one of the most spectacular kissers I’ve ever met.

If I think about the kissing that was done in my high school relationships, I have to admit that much of it was pure learning. For the most part, each of us were trying to figure out how this whole making-out thing worked and most of the girls kissing me were as nervous as I was. However, there was one girl that I’ll never forget. She was the one who set the bar, was the acid test for every single girl that came after her. She kissed me so lovingly and tenderly that my young libido was sent spinning into orbit, my heart along with it. The unfortunate part of being kissed so perfectly when you’re young is that it’s very hard to live up to those expectations that are created. Not to say that I’ve never come close.

What about you? Your first kiss – can you remember it? What about the first time you really felt that you were being kissed as though both of your lives depended on this connection? Do you remember how hard your heart beat, how close you felt to Nirvana?

Jeanette Winterson said in her book, The Passion, “To kiss well, one must kiss solely. No groping hands or stammering hearts. The lips and the lips alone are the pleasure.” If I think about the times when girls kissing me has been remarkable enough for me to paste it into my mental scrapbook of events which I shall never forget, then I must say that I agree with Ms. Winterson wholeheartedly.

I think everyone needs a touch of pure romance in their lives from time to time. You know what I mean? I’m thinking of the kind of day you share with someone where nothing else matters or distracts you, all you care about is the woman sitting in front of you or walking next to you. It’s hard to find sometimes, which is why I’m glad there are dating personals to help out.

It’s hard to talk about this kind of thing without sounding cheesy. It’s hard to talk about romance without using clices and slipping into descriptions of moments that really only exist in fantasies. That said, cliches exist because so many people have had, or want to have, similar experiences.

Pretty well everyone can think of a time they spent with someone that was like a complete vacation from the rest of the world. You forget about your job, your responsibilities, you don’t answer your phone; you just enjoy life for a little while.

Obviously, things can’t be like that all the time, but there is nothing quite as refreshing as those little romantic vacations you can take without ever going anywhere. They’re addictive and hard to come back from, but once you manage to return you are usually in a better condition to deal with the world.

The hard part is finding someone you’re that comfortable with and with whom you can really lose track of time. It’s hard enough to find someone you like, let alone find someone who can actually take that time away with you.

I guess, unless you’re with someone new, those times of pure romance aren’t always to easy to come by. When you’re in a relationship I suppose moments of pure romance are shorter and more spread out. Still, I think it’s important to make sure you imbue a touch of romance in your day-to-day life. Everyone needs a little time alone with someone where you can just enjoy being together for the sake of it.

Some people usually date specific types. I have one friend who, if you were to bet money that he was talking about a redhead when he mentions a new gal in his life, could make you rich very quickly. In fact, if you ever lost a dollar, I’d probably take my buddy to a doctor to make sure he wasn’t sick. Whatever your type, you can find someone that fits it online. If you want to meet a sexy black girl, just check out a black dating site and you’ll soon find someone who fits your image of the perfect woman.

Now, I said some people tend to date specific types. Obviously not everyone does this; I don’t think I do. Looking back on the girls I’ve been with, I can honestly say that they haven’t had much in common except that they’ve been interested in me. This, I think, is a nice quality that I always look for in a lady. Sadly, if that’s a type, it is a very, very rare type.

Honestly, I’ve never really understood people that are always looking for some one who fits the perfect profile that they’ve constructed in their mind. I’ve always been attracted to some unique thing that catches my eye and fascinates me, whether it be a peculiar interest in quantum mechanics or an endearing mannerism. The latter is more often the case. I don’t even know what ‘quantum mechanics’ means, except that you’d probably have to be a physicist to know. I have never dated a physicist.

Now, all that aside, I think I’m starting to understand. I still don’t really get people that will only date women who ride motorcycles, but I think I’ve developed something of an obsession these days.

I was sitting in a pub a couple of weeks ago when this gorgeous, sexy black girl walked in and asked to use the phone. When she was finished she left as quickly as she’d come. I don’t think I’ve ever been more physically attracted to anyone in my life. There was just something about the glint in her eye and the way she carried herself that caught me.

Now, I’m not lamenting the fact that I didn’t talk to her. There really wasn’t much opportunity and, who knows what she was actually like. Beauty is no measure of character. Still, I can’t get her out of my mind. Every time I see a black woman walk into a room I wonder, for a second, if it was the gal I saw a couple of weeks ago. It’s been strange because in two weeks I’ve barely noticed a single woman except for those that have had at least a passing resemblance to that first gal. It’s a strange thing, but it something I’m going to have to explore.

Was Saint Valentine a real human being?

Yep. Three of them!

According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, there were three saints whose feast was celebrated on Saint Valentine’s Day. They were named Valentinus and martyred sometime during the late third century.

However, it gets a little murkey here… Up until 1969, the Catholic Church formally recognized a total of eleven Valentine’s days.

However the legend of St. Valentine’s Day being associated with romantic love didn’t happen until the 14th century when the famous English author, Geoffrey Chaucer and his circle wrote about it.

How about that? Ladies have been getting flowers and chocolates for hundreds of years…

Oh wait, Chocolate wasn’t discovered by the Europeans until the 1519 and the Spanish Monks didn’t share the secret of chocolates for another 100 years…

I’m confused…
