Wakey, wakey…heart eggs and bacon!  Suppose you are lucky enough to wake up next to your Valentine on Feb 14th, and you want to make them a delicious breakfast to show your love.  Nothing says I Love You more than heart shaped eggs, obviously and this love heart egg shaper makes it easy.
The Art Of Kissing can be used a few ways-1. Consider it a gift to your self if you need to brush up on your kissing skills before the big day, or 2. Give it to someone who needs assistance in the kissing department and offer to help them practice.

Want a creative way to tell someone you’re crushing on them?  Check out this updated version of Cupid’s Bow and Arrow-the Love Catapult!  How could anyone resist a bunch of mini cupids flying at their face…and guns are SO romantic, right?   Bang, bang!

Who needs a real boyfriend when you’ve got the Magic Frog Prince?  Apparently, just add water and he turns from a green little frog to a handsome young man…voila!  Now, if only dating in the real world was so easy…

If you are in a relationship, Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to spice things up.  Leave one of these Sexhilariation Stickers somewhere your love will find it in the morning-give him (or her!) something to think about all day long! Meow.

Jewelry is always a hit on Valentine’s Day but what if you aren’t ready to shell out diamonds and pearls, and want to keep things a bit light?  Handcuff jewelry is not only a little tongue in cheek, but it’s just edgy enough to wear without feeling like you’re engaged. It definitely still conveys a message, though.

Whether you’re single, casually dating or in a serious relationship, I think we all can agree that the best way to celebrate V-day is with a bottle of bubbly!  Might I add-this is especially fun if you’re single!

Are you dating a sentimental or girly girl?  Some of you men out there might not appreciate a gift like this, but most women will.  Cutesy, decorative letters spelling out a multitude of sweet sayings-the you and me is my favorite-will definitely bring a smile to her face.  And hey, if it doesn’t work out she can always just chuck them under the bed.

What about the gift that is for both her AND him?  I’m talking about lingerie of course-she’ll feel pretty with it on, and he’ll have fun taking it off.  There are tons of styles (from demure to…diiirrty) and lingerie is definitely the gift that keeps on giving.  I like this babydoll from Gilda and Pearl.

Ok, so we’ve got lingerie for the ladies to wear…but what if a guy wants to slip into somthing more comfortable?These Jedi Bathrobes fit the bill perfectly!  So sillMay the force be with him!

3 Important Dating Tips For Guys (Video) is a post from the: WeLoveDates online dating blog

I recently found myself in a situation where things were moving way too quickly with a guy I had just met. We bonded while waiting for a flight back to Atlanta, and in a matter of hours it felt like we had been friends forever. You know what I mean – those relationships that you form for a temporary purpose: keeping you company in line for a rollercoaster and Six Flags, bonding over mutual gripes on public transportation, the friend of a friend from out of town that joins you all at your local bar one night. People you never imagine you’ll see again but they serve their purpose as your confidante and entertainment while you’re together. Now add onto that a level of mutual attraction, and you’ve got yourself a situation ripe for the fast-track. So how do you slow things down and make sure no one rushes into anything?

Pause for a minute.
Ask yourself: if you had met this person under different circumstances, would you still feel this way? I’m sure there are people who have met their spouses while sitting at the gate waiting for their flight, but in my case, this guy would never have passed my tests had I not been bored and traveling alone, eager for someone to talk to.

Play Devil’s Advocate.
Imagine introducing this person to your friends. What would their opinions be? Would this person stack up against their standards and expectations of you? If you’d be embarrassed to introduce them to your friends, maybe they’re not as great as they seem in the moment.

Watch What You Say
It’s always exciting to imagine a dalliance with a stranger, and in the midst of those fantasies we say things we don’t necessarily mean. Things like, “You should come back here and visit!” is probably not the best thing to say to someone before they pass your Crazy Stalker Google Search test.

Cut it Off
If it’s progressed to the point of constant communication that is interfering with your day and driving you crazy, it’s best to just cut it off. Be direct and tell them you’re no longer interested. For those of you who are big wimps like I am, maybe just stop responding to his text messages and disappear into thin air.

Somebody please reassure me I’m not the only one who finds themselves in a mess like this!

The Allure of the Mysterious Stranger is a post from the: WeLoveDates online dating blog

Please believe me when I say that the reason why you are single has nothing to do with how you look. Take it from me, I know.

This is why you’re single:

*you’re too picky. You expect Prince Charming, when you’re more of an ugly stepsister.  You’re 5’2 and you won’t consider dating anyone shorter then 6′. You just have a thing for blonde, blue eyed tennis players who do their laundry on Tuesdays.

*you’re not a nice person. Maybe you’re bitter or generally unpleasant. You have an attitude. Maybe someone broke your heart horribly 5 years ago and it jaded you. You think all men are dogs and all women are bitches. It shows.

*you expect instant gratification. You finally make the decision to pay for an online dating site or just start a profile and you are upset when said Prince Charming has not knocked on your door in week 1. It upsets you when no one has messaged you in 3 weeks and so you write the whole thing off as a failure.

*you cannot be bothered to write your profile. Or post photos. You feel it’s not important. Your lack of effort makes you look lazy and uninterested. Also, uninteresting. You refuse to email anyone – they should come to you, right? Wrong. So wrong. You’re all there for the same reason. Put your best foot forward, please.

*online dating scares you, but you like the attention from the opposite sex. So you email back and forth. You talk on the phone. Texting. But you delay the actual meet. You never meet. You have glorified pen pals, basically.

*you feel you are unworthy of love. You’ll find someone when you lose that extra weight. Or get a better job. Or whatever is it that you think is holding you back. The only thing holding you back is you, sweetheart. There is someone out there for the you that you are right now. You are worthy, right now.

U.K. Relationship Status Demographics-Where Do You Fit In? is a post from the: WeLoveDates online dating blog

As kids and teens, our relationship ideas were focused on how cute a boy was, what sport he played or if he had a pool in his backyard. Perhaps they were simpler times, though I clearly remember the dramatic break ups and all of the feelings associated with these early relationships.

It’s only logical that as we grow older, our relationships evolve and the qualities we look for in a partner change. We as people become more complex, therefore allowing us to embark on more complex relationships. So as adults, what qualities do we look for now? Who has replaced the varsity athlete with a backyard pool?

Emotionally available.

We’ve all found ourselves attracted to the commitment-phobe at one point or another. The guy who is fun and carefree and who won’t settle down. I don’t know if they actually fear the commitment itself, or if they are just constantly on the look-out for something better. Either way, they’re infuriating to date.

Stable lifestyle.

A good job and normal life is generally preferable to beggar on the street that’s couchsurfing. I’d even go a little further and say that I want a guy who has a budget, a rational outlook on life, and solid friendships. I think those are grounding elements for a person’s ego and they bring out the same groundedness in myself.

Intelligence.

Everyone knows that looks fade. Even in men, who only seem to get more attractive with every gray hair and laugh line, it doesn’t last forever. I want to be attracted to my partner physically, but I also want to be attracted to them intellectually as well. If I can’t have great conversations with someone over time, I’m not going to stay interested for very long.

These are the top three changes for me. I no longer care about sports teams or six-pack abs like my 15-year-old self did. Now it’s all about making things last long term.

What are some qualities you look for now that you would never have considered years ago?

My friend and I stared at this cake for a good ten minutes, coming up with possible scenarios to explain what the hell is going on!  My favorite-his groomsman are trying to save him from marriage…isn’t it romantic?

This one takes the cake (heh)…my grandparents would have a heart attack.

This looks a little bit too real…

“Good boy…”

The more, the marry-er??

Because standing up is just too completely  exhausting…

“Get the hell off my cake!”

Hey, I like Chinese food as much as the next girl, but I’ve never seen any that look like that…

10 Of The World’s Weirdest Wedding Cakes is a post from the: WeLoveDates online dating blog

Greetings, We Love Date-ians! It’s singlegirlie here from Single Girl Blogging. It’s my first post here on this lovely site and I’m tickled hot pink.

I asked my Twitter followers what topics they’d like to read about on an online dating site’s blog, and one jovial chap replied, “How about how to get a fuckin’ response?”

I thought such a spirited request deserved some recognition, and thus the topic of this post was born. (I modified the F-word in the title, so as not to get you fired should your boss walk by. See? I got your back.)

As you may already know, girls on online dating sites receive far more messages than their male counterparts. So sometimes you’re just not going to get a reply, and that’s the deal. Maybe you’re not her type, maybe she’s met someone, maybe she took some really bad acid and is now only attracted to horses. No need to be bitter, just move on.

But, while it is important to remember that not everyone will respond, I can offer some tips to give you an edge over the poor sap who is at this moment hitting “refresh” on his inbox again instead of doing something productive like reading this helpful blog.

Your Message Matters

Most people understand how important first impressions are, so I’m always puzzled at the number of messages I receive that stimulate my gag reflex.

There are three types of e-mails that women see more often than not. These make me want to just throw in the towel and stop shaving my legs permanently.

1. The Quickie.
The quickie generally consists of less than three words. Examples include:

a) Hey, wut up?
b) Hi (insert generic smiley face/wink)
c) You’re pretty.

Messages like these a) give me nothing to respond to and b) make me think you are a dumb git with nothing to say. Please, write at least three sentences so that we know you are literate.

2. The Almanac.
While the three-word message is far more common, every now and then someone takes the opposite route and writes a master’s thesis. In this case, I may not think you stupid, but an overzealous nut with too much time on his hands. I don’t need a full bio. Keep it to one short paragraph — more than three words, less than the full Harry Potter series.

3. The Copy & Paste.
Some men type out a couple generic paragraphs describing who they are, then copy and paste it into every message they send. I can spot these a mile away, and I envision you sending it to 30 women a day. These are so devoid of charm you sound like a robot. And I imagine robot penises to be uncomfortable, so I delete.

Alright, bitch, what should I write?

I’m so glad you asked! Picture this: you’re browsing through profiles when you come across the girl of your dreams. Hopefully you’ve looked beyond her rack and actually read her profile. This is a tip, in fact: read her profile. This will give you some guidance when crafting a message to her. Bring up something she wrote in her profile that piqued your interest. Example:

“Hi there. Wanted to pop by and say hello. I see you like camping. Have you ever been to Lake Makahooky? It’s really beautiful. I went last year and actually spotted a Moose! What are some other great spots you’ve visited?”

This works because a) you’re letting her know you looked at more than her photos, b) you asked a couple questions, which gives her something to reply to, and c) you are talking about a subject you know she likes.

It’s simple if you think about it. It just takes a small amount of effort, and isn’t it worth it for the girl of your dreams? Or, as my follower put it, a fuckin’ response?

However, you’re not done yet. Even more important than your message is your profile. But I’m over my word count, so if you want to know what a good online dating profile looks like, mosey on over to my blog and read the post I wrote about it here.

Questions? Write ‘em down in the comments and I’ll do my best to reply. See? You can get a girl to respond on an online dating site. Cheerio!

How To Get a Friggin Response is a post from the: WeLoveDates online dating blog

The list of no-no’s is endless when it comes to first date advice. I can tell you to never spread your legs when wearing a dress; I can tell you to keep all exes, insecurities and over all baggage in the closet – where they belong; I can tell you not to flirt with the valet attendant, too.

But am I going to waste my precious time on WeLoveDates by reiterating things you should already know? No. Instead, I’m going to focus on one thing you think you know but aren’t always conscious of following through with while on a date: treating the service staff well.

You’re probably shaking your head in disbelief; THIS is the super important thing to remember? Yea, this.

Because while you’re focusing on not farting and not talking about your ex, you don’t notice the fact you’re acting like a slave master to the poor redhead who brought you regular instead of diet coke.

Not all dates will notice this behavior – but most will. And those that do, will be automatically turned off. If you can act like an asshole toward someone you don’t know, how will you act towards your date once things get serious and the sugarcoat is stripped?

Stop Yourself

I’m not here to defend all servers, bartenders and general wait staff – I’ll admit, some are dumbasses, for sure. I am here, however, to remind you that they’re not on your date. Once you shift the focus towards something as pointless as attacking a 16 year girl, you’ll lose sight of the goal of the evening: to have a good time on your date.

So, while treating others like crap will make you feel better about life, know that you’re wasting precious time, and that the statement you are making is not the one you should be aiming for.

Your date will most likely be left unimpressed by your ogre-like, condescending ways. And if you’re on a date with someone who’s turned on by it, you should get to walk away, anyway; that’s not someone you want to bang.
