Would U marry a more successful & older Woman?

Casting a wider net?

TODAY ONLINE

AGE IS proving to be less of a barrier in the Singaporean's search for love, with more women here now open to dating younger men and more men willing to date older women.

According to a survey of 200 singles last month, six in 10 women would date a younger man, and half the men would go out with an older woman. These results are a marked increase from a similar survey done in 2005, when only about four in 10 women and three in 10 men were open to the idea.

The jump in numbers could be due to several factors, said Ms Violet Lim, co-founder of Lunch Actually, the dating agency that commissioned the online survey, the results of which were released yesterday.

"People are becoming more open, with the increasing median age of first marriage. It could also be the difficulty in meeting like-minded singles, so they are casting their net wider," she said.

According to data released last week by the National Population Secretariat, the median age at first marriage for men rose from 28.3 to 29.7 years, and from 25.7 to 27.1 years for women over the last decade.

Compared to the 2005 survey, more women are now willing to date a man who earns less or has a lower level of education. From about 17 per cent four years ago, the figure now stands at about one in four women. Men are much more open in this respect, with about seven in 10 game to date a higher-earning or more educated woman.
But while women are open to adjusting their expectations regarding age, income and academic achievement, they remain steadfast as far as the height of the man is concerned. Nine in 10 refuse to date a shorter man.

Other dating agencies were not surprised by the preferences showed up in Lunch Actually's survey.

"It's always the older ladies who don't mind dating younger men or those with lower education levels," said Mr Andrew Chow, co-founder of Ardor.

But a short man is "hard to accept" for women because "it's something you cannot change", he added.

The latest survey also found a marked increase in singles willing to meet prospective partners through family members - from a mere 1.4 per cent in 2005 to 15 per cent now.

Clique Wise's co-founder Lydia Gan said more people are open to relatives playing matchmaker, but it boils down to how well their relatives know them.

How To Ask A Woman Out

Follow these rules to make the process simple – and successful. Listen in as the ladies tell you what they like.
My good friend Brian had been flirting with his crush for what seemed like forever before he finally worked up the nerve to ask her out. He thought the date was in the bag--after all, they had exchanged witty banter and flirty smiles for weeks. But when he invited her to dinner, she stammered and said, ‘Maybe...’ “I don’t get it,” he said later. “What did I do wrong?” Oh jeez---chances are, he violated the basic girl guidelines that if not followed, can squash even a nice guy’s shot at love. So what will make a woman say yes? Allow me to explain.

1) Pick. Up. The. Phone.
O.K., we live in a world of Blackberries, cell phones, and emoticons, which makes communication easier---and often a lot more impersonal. So laying off advanced technology in favor of the phone will do wonders for building intimacy and securing a date. “Studies show that people have a much harder time saying no to a request when they’re asked over the phone,” says Laurie Puhn, a relationship expert and author of Instant Persuasion: How to Change Your Words To Change Your Life . “Sure, it adds a bit more pressure, but that’s a good thing, especially if you don’t know each other well.” Be clear that you are asking her on a date, too. Say something like, “Would you have dinner with me this Friday?” instead of, “Hey, maybe we should hang out sometime.”

Need more encouragement? Erin, 28, shares how a date requested by phone changed her love life: “My feelings were on the fence for a guy I barely knew, but when he called to ask me out, I accepted because I didn’t have time to say no,” she says. “I’m glad he was bold from the start, otherwise I never would have married him two years later!”

2) Ask in advance
“Women are innate planners, so in order to win her affection you’ll have to tweak your mindset,” says Puhn. “That means, ask her out four or five days in advance.” Sure, it may seem a little formal to give so much notice, but it will have a payoff. Not only does asking early up the odds of scoring face time with your crush, doing so shows you respect her time. In other words, you’re saying, ‘I want to do this!’ Laura, 30, wishes her last date had followed this maxim. “Bruce would give me four hours’ notice; he’d call me mid-afternoon and say, ‘Hey, how about dinner tonight?’,” she says. “The last-minute requests made me think I wasn’t a priority, so I stopped seeing him.” And while there’s nothing wrong with the occasional spur-of-the-moment tryst (“I won White Stripes tickets!”), be sure to temper your spontaneity with more drawn-out dates in between.

3) Be the man with a plan
Plain and simple: Women love a man with a plan. Why? For starters, suggesting fun activities shows you’re into trying new things, which is always exciting. “Introduce any invitation with, ‘I have an idea!’ and you’ll grab her attention immediately,” says Puhn. Just ask Julia, 28. “The guy I’m dating first approached me by saying, ‘Hey, can I take you to my favorite bowling alley?’ He wanted me to experience something he loved, which was flattering.” Another pre-date pointer: Give her options. Cate, 30, met a guy who gave her a choice before their first date. “He said, ‘Let’s do A or B. You chose---but I’ll take care of the details.’ I liked his approach because I was in the driver’s seat, but everything was still his idea. It was a total turn-on.”

4) Leave your buddies at home
When planning a first date, make sure it’s a solo outing for you and the woman in question. “Sometimes men opt for group dates because it alleviates pressure,” says Puhn. “The problem is, it usually suggests to a woman that she’s not worth your undivided attention.” While we do like meeting your friends eventually, when it comes to the first date, make it exclusive, otherwise things can get murky. “When Scott and I arrived at the restaurant, his friends were seated at our table,” recalls Rebecca ,37, of a recent first date. Were they there to keep us company? Pass judgment? Chaperone? It was totally confusing and sure didn’t start things off on good footing.”

That said, there are exceptions. The key is to let your lady know in advance that your pals will be present. “Adam asked if I would accompany him to a dinner party,” says Julie, 26. “I liked that he warned me ahead of time that I would be meeting his friends––that way, I was prepared to hang with his inner circle and know that they’d be evaluating me.”

Bonus tip: Follow up
So you had an amazing date? Nice! Tell her that. The truth is, much of the stress about dating comes from the fact that women tend to overanalyze a man’s intentions. Does he like me? Is this a fling? Will he call? But you’ll nip her anxiety in the bud by sending a simple post-date recap expressing how much fun you had. “A woman’s interest in a man peaks the day after a first date,” says Puhn. “The morning after, she’s still glowing---but with no contact on each passing day, her excitement will wane.” So shoot her an email no later than mid-morning. Mary Beth, 29, weighs in: “Checking in the next day may even give me the courage to ask you out on date two!”

Yes, I am single

Mon, Jun 22, 2009
The New Paper
Yes, I am single
by Tan Kee Yun


YOU'RE at the gym doing your usual workout when a friendly woman with a beaming smile struts up to you.

You notice that like yourself, she wears the same 'singles identification badge' on her shirt.

Instantly, both of you hit it off as you realise you're both looking for love.

That, would be the perfect scenario in Mr Evan Diacopolous' world - one which sees his Yes I Am Single (YIS) badge saving the day for lonely, lovelorn singletons.

In April, the 35-year old Australian IT worker started a new dating service called Yes I Am Single.

For A$22.95 ($25), singles can buy a blue-coloured identification badge that has the YIS official website yis.com.au printed on it.

With this little badge, they gain membership to forums, hobby groups and social events to meet people with similar interests.

Non-Australian residents can also buy the badge for A$24.95.

In an e-mail interview with The New Paper, MrDiacopolous said he came up with the idea after several of his friends became disgruntled with online dating channels.

'Many started to turn away from online dating sites as they were disappointed that the person they eventually met in real life, following a series of expensive e-mails, didn't quite live up to expectations,' said the bachelor.

'People tend to lie a little when posting their profiles online.'

Mr Diacopolous explained that the YIS badge works like a 'conversation starter' for singles in everyday situations.

There are no restrictions as to where and when a person should wear their badge - it could be when they are in a group at coffee lounges, at the supermarket, or 10 minutes a day while on the train to work, he added.

'I think that it is everyone's dream to meet their future partner the old-fashioned way, in regular, non-contrived settings,' he said. 'The badge is merely a prompt, a tool to help them achieve this.'

Though the take-up rate for his badge has been slow, Mr Diacopolous readily admitted that he currently has 'just under 100 members in Australia and 20 international members'. He is confident that the numbers will pick up, both in his country, as well as overseas, when he 'starts ramping up publicity and marketing'.

Following some media coverage, Mr Diacopolous said he has had 'subsequent enquiries from people in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Zambia, New Zealand and China'.

'Through the power of the Internet, this could be an internationally-recognised identifier for single people,' he added.

And even in reserved and passive Singapore, it will work, he declared.

'I understand that Singaporeans might be shy about wearing the badge, but it was precisely developed to lend shy people out there a helping hand, to give them the confidence to talk to other singles,' he explained.

'They can wear their badges while they are walking around Chinatown or Little India.'

Not for Singaporeans?

But if Mr Diacopolous plans to promote his singles badge in Singapore, he may have his work cut out for him. Dating agencies and singles we spoke to did not think his concept would take off here.

Ms Ada Wong (left), 31, co-founder of dating agency The Dating Loft, said that would 'take a huge stretch of the imagination'.

'It's simply too bold, like an outright declaration of one's singlehood,' she said.

'From my experience of working with Singaporean singles, many of them are very concerned with issues of privacy and they're definitely not ready to announce to the whole world their status.'

Ms Sue Yeo (below right), 34, founder and managing director of lifestyle dating service Drinks At Eight, shared the sentiment.

'Wearing the badge might attract unnecessary attention,' she said.

'Some singles might become easy targets for jokers, people who wear the badge for fun and are not serious about forming committed relationships.

'Singaporeans would prefer a more formal and professional dating procedure, I'm sure they would want the agency to screen its members first, before they are being introduced to the other party.'

Ms Violet Lim (below left), 28, co-founder of dating agency Lunch Actually, felt that it is important to have enough publicity generated about the concept.

'Take a badge like the one from YIS, which just says yis.com.au on it. Singles might have no idea what it stands for, and it would defeat the whole purpose of one wearing it in the first place,' she said.

Singles The New Paper on Sunday spoke to could not embrace the concept either.

Events executive Karen Kwok, 27, felt that wearing the badge was 'definitely a no-no' for her, as 'it might make people think I am desperate'.

Mr Tam Cheong Yan, 31, a freelance writer, felt that many people still feel 'the social stigma of being labelled as single'.

He does not deny being one of them himself.

'There are too many inhibitions in us,' he said.

Loud

Sports administrator Lu Qi Loong, 35, agreed that the act of wearing a badge is 'kind of loud, in the Singapore context'.

He added sarcastically: 'There's no point in having the badge actually because people who sign up with the dating service are naturally singletons, unless there is an alternative badge that says 'Player'.'

But this is not to say that the concept of using badges would never work when it comes to dating, Ms Lim said.

'Badges might work in a more contained environment,' she noted.

'For example, dating agencies sometimes organise 'traffic-light parties' where singles wear a green badge, those that are attached wear an amber badge, and the married ones wear a red badge.'

'In this setting, singles who are looking for love can seek out fellow singles who are wearing a green badge.

'They wouldn't feel embarrassed or singled out, as that is part of the party's overall theme.'

Hints and Flirting

How girls can catch hints from guys?

When guys suddenly send SMS more frequenlty than usual.
When guys asking question like 'have you taken your dinner?' etc
When guys like to spend time together more often with the girl (meet up/ spend more time to chat/ talk on the phone)

When guys give gifts to the girl
When guys care more
When guys become more protective (not over) toward the girl
When guys want to know more about her life
When guys start sharing his life
When guys treat her more special than other girls
Talk to her more and communicate more

I was wondering when a friend asked me how to flirt with girls without being obvious/ without letting the girl know that he likes her.
What is the purpose of flirting then?
Isn't it to hint the girl/ to let the girl know that he is interested with her?
Just show care more to the girl, make her feel special and let her know your feeling.
So that you can hear what is the respond from the girl. :)
Simple rite?

Middle-aged divorces rising

WHILE there were fewer divorces last year compared to 2007, more marriages ended in divorces for middle-aged couples.
Statistics on Marriages and Divorces 2008 released by the Singapore Department of Statistics on Wednesday showed that marital dissolutions fell slightly from 7,241 to 7,220 last year.

Of these, 37.9 per cent of the men who divorced were aged 35 to 44 years, while for female divorcees, the largest group - 39.4 per cent - was aged 25 to 34 years.

The report showed that a growing number of divorcees aged 45 years and above in the last decade - for both men and women.

For non-Muslim marriages, the most common reason cited for divorces was having lived apart or separated for at least three years.

The other usual reason was 'unreasonable behaviour of the spouse', usually given by the women.

Among Muslim marriages, infidelity was the main reason cited for 23 per cent of the divorces last year, followed by personality difference cited by 18 per cent.

Some 15 per cent of the women also petitioned on the grounds of 'inadequate maintenance'.

The number of annulments in 2008 also fell by 368 last year, compared to 429 in 2007.

According to the report, couples tend to stay married for about a decade before seeking divorce as the median marriage period for divorces last year was 9.8 years.

S'poreans marrying later

WHILE more couples tied the knot last year, many Singaporeans are not marrying or marrying later in life.
In an update on the population trends in 2008, the National Population Secretariat (NPS) said there were 21,042 marriages involving at least one Singapore citizen last year, compared to 20,775 nuptials in 2007.

But the marriage rates for Singaporean men over the last decade fell from 47.9 married men per 1,000 unmarried men in 1998 to 42.1 last year.

The trend is similar for women, showing a decline from 49 to 39.3 married females per 1,000 unmarried women.

Over the last 10 years, Singaporeans are also marrying later, with the median age of first marriage rising from 28.3 to 29.7 years for men, and from 25.7 to 27.1 years for women.

The number of singles has also risen. Over 40 per cent of Singaporean men aged 30 to 34 years were single, while 29.4 per cent were women, compared to 33.3 per cent men and 21.6 per cent women in 1998. NPS said that such trends 'underpin the importance of facilitating socialising opportunities' for singles here so they could 'meet their desired partners early'.

The report also noted that with globalisation, more Singaporeans are also meeting desired partners from overseas.

The share of marriages involving citizens and non-citizens has increased over the past decade, rising to almost four in 10 in 2008 from three in 10 in 1998.

And among the married couples, they are having fewer children, noted NPS.

The report said that the average number of children born to ever-married female citizens aged 30 to 39 years declined to 1.58 children last year from 1.74 children in 1998.

Although the government has enhanced the marriage and parenthood package in 2008 to encourage a more pro-family environment in Singapore, NPS said it is still premature to gauge its effectiveness as it was only implemented last August.

How can a lady get to know a guy without looking too easy?

Dear Dr Date

What advice would you give a woman who wants to get to know.. a good-looking, but very shy guy? How can a lady get to know him without looking too easy?

Yours, Debbie.

Dear Debbie,

How to seduce shy men? Great question, as there are plenty of shy men in Singapore.

If a woman sees her target at a bar or some other kind of social gathering, and she senses that he is too shy to approach women on his own, then it is common for her to make the first move.

What's required isn't anything drastic like walking over alone and chatting him up directly.

Instead, do this. Look at him, and the next time you meet eyes, maintain eye contact and smile broadly. Then look down so as not to intimidate him.

A few seconds later, throw him a short, darting glance. If he needs still more encouragement, look straight at him and flip your hair.

You can also get your guy friends to help you out by going over to him together and just being friendly and social. Have everyone introduce themselves and get to know each other. After that, you can pull him out for a more intimate conversation.

Get yourself an amazing date

I enjoy observing and comparing "patterns" between men who experiencing depressing outcomes when it comes to dating women, and those who are fantastically good with the ladies.

The "losers" have a pattern - they like to "reason" with themselves all the time.

That is, they give themselves reasons not to progress with women.

Worse, they frequently reason themselves out of a very advantageous girl-meeting situation even before it happens.

Here are some excuses that men give themselves not to approach total strangers:

- I should be perfect before I can go and interact

- I have so much work to do, not time to date at all

- Bus stops are for catching the bus, not approaching that attractive woman

- Beautiful women would not choose a guy like me. I'm too _________________ (insert self-derogatory word of choice with

regards to age, height,income, looks)

Reasons, reasons, reasons.

Now, Let's look at the opposite, and I have this to share: When you stop reasoningwith yourself, your success with women increases.

Yes, men who have success in getting to know the ladies don't reason or "analyse" too much.

One of the ways I became successful in my dating schedule is simply by being a rebel.

That means:

- I get myself involved in social situations even when I'm not in the mood.

- I did less analysing and more calling - and gone out many times and had an excellent time with women.

- I did not let my height, or lack of, become a reason to stop me from getting to know more women. I have been out with ladies taller than me more than once.

Just so you know, I'm not bragging. After all, I'm the same guy who made various trips to different doctors to resolve my height issue.

Reasoning with yourself that things must be "perfect" before you can go up and interact with women will stop you from getting out there to know more people.

The Asian Marketplace Conference 2009 - 15-17 Jul

Global Business Network Venture (GBNV) is excited to bring you The Asian Marketplace Conference 2009 which will be taking place between July 15 - 17. This year, the focus is on the creation of wealth for the Kingdom. In the midst of a global economic crisis, they believe that there are opportunities to create wealth. The chinese characters for crisis is ''危机'' [wēijī], which is made up of two words that mean ''danger'' and ''opportunity''. In every crisis, there is danger and there is also opportunity. But it takes the anointing of God in our lives to position ourselves so that we can avoid the financial dangers and take advantage of the divine opportunities. So if you are looking for your breakthroughs in this on-going crisis, you must attend this conference!

The keynote speaker this year is Dr Pat Francis. A doctor by training, Dr Pat is President, CEO and Founder of several businesses and non-profit organizations, as well as a United Nations representative to deal with humanitarian issues and systemic poverty. With such wide-ranging influence, be convinced that she will be able to bring the rhema word of God to you, the marketplace believers in Singapore. Take a quick 90-second youtube video preview of what she will be sharing with you during this conference - watch video. To find out more our speaker, visit http://www.patfrancis.org ..

Register before June 15 and enjoy the early-bird rate of S$250.00 only. Click here to find out more, register and make payment on-line.
