What Does ‘Catfished’ Mean And How To Avoid It

Standard

If you love using mobile applications or internet dating sites to find a someone to have sex with, you may have come across a few fake profiles. You won’t find them on my favorite dating website, that’s for sure. A fake profile on a dating site or social site might try to incorporate a ton of interests and other things in order to attract people and persuade them into contacting them. This type of persuasion is better known as catfishing.

What Does Cat Fished Mean And Tips For Catching One

The rate of individuals that are “catfishing” has recently become very a popular activity on the internet. People use fake personas to attract other people in an attempt to take full advantage of them. It’s important that you know how to best identify when someone is trying to lure you into being catfished.

For example, one of the most popular places to catfish was once the video game MMORPG World Of Warcraft. A lot of male players used to create female characters in the game and started portraying them as females. This helped them to find other male players who would willingly help them get better at the game.

The same story can be applied to dating sites and even social media sites. If you find a profile of a woman with information that is too good to be true, you have probably landed on a profile that is set to catfish people. Avoiding catfished profiles is easy if you know the factors that make a profile fake. Here are some very popular factors that easily give away a fake profile.

They Have An Exhaustive List

If you end up on a profile that lists just about anything you can think about in their ‘interests’ section, then you can say it is a catfished profile. Catfishers will try to add as many interests as they can think about in their profile to attract a host of different people.

They Have A Very Good Profile Picture

If you come across a profile picture that looks like someone jumped off of the cover of a supermodel magazine or a Victoria’s secret cover shoot, be aware that this could be a fake profile. Many people use high quality images of women, edit them and upload the photos to portray them self as such in their profile pictures. They do this in order to attract men. If you can’t find more than one picture on a profile and that one picture looks too good to be true, you are probably on a fake profile.

They message You First

If someone messages you first and tries to be very friendly with you during the very first conversation, this person is trying to lure you. Check their profile immediately and see if the above factors are true. Sometimes people will try to get too friendly with you during the first conversation. If they do, they are trying to lure you.

Now, the good news is that any great dating site will have a team of people on their end that deletes all the fake profiles that people set up. While it can’t be avoided, it can be reduced.

How To Make Friends In College

Standard

The reason I’m writing on this topic is because I’ve had some friends ask me how to make friends in college and given that this is a dating review site, I figured it was a good topic to cover here.

Making friends in college is a fairly easy thing and it comes naturally to a lot of people. But there are still some students that feel socializing randomly with other people is awkward. Awkwardness is natural and should not be feared because it only feels like that for a few minutes before you get comfortable. That goes for especially when you’re hanging out with some sexy college girl that you want to bang.

People attending your college will naturally come to you but if you are having a problem finding like-minded people, you just need to change a few things about yourself.

How To Make Friends In College

Places To Make Friends In College

The first thing you must change and realize about friendship is that sometimes you will have to take things in control and actually be brave enough to start a conversation with other people. There is absolutely nothing wrong with approaching someone and just talking to them. You should be doing this in person and online!

Your college/university is a friend mine in these places specifically:

Dating Network Sites
I meet lots of college girls online using dating sites because that’s where they hang out. They love hanging out online and they use the sites almost daily. If you’re not on one then you better join one today!

Classrooms
The people in your class are the first place where you will start making friends automatically. You will probably get assigned to a group to do group work and that is where you will start making your first friends. Be nice to them and be useful in the group. During or after class, don’t be embarrassed to go and talk to them more about other things.

Rooms
If you are living in at a residence hall or dorm provided by the college, your first friend will be your room mate. If you have trouble getting attached to people or find it really awkward to talk to new people, your room mate can probably help you with that.

Start hanging out with your room mate more often and you will meet new people through them. This is a pretty good place to start looking for new friends since all the social awkwardness seems to diminish when you are with someone you already know.

Clubs
There are several student hobby groups and other clubs in colleges. If you want to meet and talk to someone who shares a lot of things like yourself, go and join a hobby group. This is an excellent place to get to know people who are very much like you.

Plus it’s always a good idea to start a new hobby since it not only helps you find new people but also keeps you busy throughout your years in college/university.

Extra Classes
Classes that are kept outside college are also a very good place to find friends. You could join any class such as dance classes, cooking classes or painting classes.

Well, those are a few of the many ways that you can make friends in college. Remember, college is about experiencing things! That means having sex with random girls on campus.

How To Breakup With Someone

Standard

Breaking up is part of life and we all go through it at least once at some point in our life. We also know that breakups can be really harsh on people if we are not careful. If you feel like moving on and you want to minimize the damage done to the other person, there are sensitive ways of breaking up.

If you want your ex to remember you in a neutral manner in the future, you will have to remain very careful when you decide to move on. Here are some tips that you can follow to minimize the damage of the breakup. I came up with this list when I broke up with my girlfriend for good and started using Snapsext instead. If you’re looking to breakup versus cheat on them then take the following into consideration.

how to breakup

How To BreakUp With Someone Without Looking Like An Asshole

Be Sensitive

If you don’t want to completely destroy the other person through a breakup, try to be more sensible and find the right moment and words to express your decision to separate. Come up with a very sensible reason to break up even if you don’t have one. This will minimize the damage of the breakup especially if your girlfriend is sensitive. Try to calm her down before you tell her about it.

Decide A Place

When you want to breakup, there are certain rules you must follow. First of all, decide the time and place of where you will announce the breakup. It’s better if you break up in a peaceful and calm place where she won’t feel pressured.

Never breakup in a restaurant or a crowded place because that is already a lot of pressure. Also, avoid breaking up in small places like inside your apartment or house. The best place to breakup is in a neutral spot in your neighborhood or even on a quad if you’re in college.

Don’t Do It Online

Breaking up online sounds very easy because you will not have to face the other person. But breaking up online can easily get into a hate debate and will leave a lot of scars. Always do it in person and leave at least some sort of positive memory in her mind.

Don’t Get Angry. Don’t Argue

You have decided to breakup and you know that the person that you’re breaking up with is going to be very emotional when you announce the news. Chances are she’s going to get really angry and will argue with you. She may even start crying on the spot. Your job is to stay as calm as possible and don’t lose your cool. This way everything will end smoothly eventually.

Remember, your end all objective is to simply get over this hump so you can move on to things like fucking girls you meet on dating sites. You won’t have to worry about any of this stuff as soon as you’re broken up. Just do your part so everyone can move on and enjoy life! I urge you to breakup with someone if you see any relationship red flags that might be present. It’s not worth the fucking headache. It’s much easier dating random people.

Important Rules For Texting A Potential Hookup

Standard

We’ve all met someone that we want to have sex with really bad. We meet them online. Make the connection and then when the time comes, we screw it up by texting them the wrong thing. It’s inevitable that at some point in time you’re going to do this is you haven’t already. I’ve done it myself and I’m here to share some rules to help you steer clear from making some big mistakes when it comes to dating online and texting girls you want to smash.

texting rules

Rules For Texting Girls You Want To Bang

Here are a few of the most important rules when it comes to sending a text to a potential lay.

Avoid Late Night

Want to avoid looking like a real douchebag? Simple! Don’t send any ridiculous late night text messages. If you do, then you’re going to find yourself alone at home pulling your dick with no girls replying. Girls don’t want to get some random lame-ass text message from some random number that they just met through a dating site.

Nope. Not a chance!

Don’t even think about that. Instead, you need to conduct business during normal business hours if you know what I mean. She’ll respect you more for it, will probably reply and you might even be able to have sex with her some day because you didn’t fuck it up with a late ngiht message.

No Crotch Shots

I promise you that you’re making a huge mistake sending a picture of your dick unless she specifically asks for one. Some girls are grossed out by the sight of a guy’s dick.

They prefer to keep that in the bedroom and believe it or not, lots of girls feel this way. So, no dick pics at all. Wait until you get her to a hotel room to show her your schlong!

No Back To Back Messages

If you find yourself sending three, maybe four messages to a girl and you haven’t heard anything back from her, then you need to stop right there and not send a single message to her again. She’s either busy or not interested in what you have to offer. Don’t even try it!

Don’t Go Dirty Unless She Starts

Don’t send anything too dirty  to a girl unless she’s asked you for it. Some girls really like sending and receiving dirty text messages but then again, some hate it. You could spoil your chances with one of them if you’re too forward.

Girls don’t like to know everything. They want excitement and sending a ridiculously dirty text message paragraph that states everything you’re going to do to her isn’t the way to do it.

How To Have A Threesome Using The Internet

Standard

We all want it but some of us never get a chance to actually make it happen. That’s right, I’m talking about the fun filled threesome! Having a threesome is an amazing experience as many people describe it. But it can easily ruin a relationship or can easily turn chaotic if you are not well prepared especially if you are already in a relationship. The good news is that if you’re using a casual dating website, there’s a good chance that you’re not in any serious relationship and if you are, you’re not all that concerned about it being damaged likely.

How To Have A Threesome

Things To Do If You Want To Have A Threesome

The best way to get a threesome without any bad after effects is to talk to your partner about it. If you’re using a site like Snapsext or any other hookup site, then you’re going to want to talk to the person you’re connecting with online.

Once you have an idea that you’ve both fantasized about having a threesome, you can start talking about your expectations and the limits and boundaries of what you really want to achieve through that threesome. It’s not all that uncommon for dating sites to actually display this type of hookup as one of their matching options.

After the discussion, that’s when it starts to get difficult and by that, I mean finding the right person to involve in your threesome escapade. It’s often quite impossible to find a person who you and your girlfriend are attracted to (if you’re in a relationship with someone). If not, it’s likely easier if you’re person number three connecting with two other individuals.

Finding this person isn’t going to be easy and it surely won’t happen own its own. So you will need to work hard and find the right places to get people who are interested in a threesome. If you are lucky, you may find a couple perfectly suited to both of you.

Use Your Internet Dating Resources!

For a threesome to happen successfully, the right-minded people are needed. And there is no other place to find people who enjoy having a threesome other than the internet. I’ve personally hooked up with a couple on Snapsext.com more than once and if you’re serious about doing so, I’d suggest starting there.

Since a lot of people enjoy having threesomes at some point in their relationship, the internet is brimming with websites that are specifically designed for people who enjoy threesomes.

Think of these websites as hookup websites but with the intent to have a threesome than any other kind of sex. The good news is that there are even social apps designed for your mobile phone that can help you find a person for a threesome.

Just sign up on one of these types of websites and mention all the details about yourself and that you want to have one. Make sure you do everything I’ve said in the past and post a solid profile picture as well as create a profile that will attract individuals looking for the same type of casual fun!

One rule of thumb is that you make sure that you do not end up having a threesome with a friend of yours or your girlfriends. These kinds of threesomes usually don’t end well in the long term. Always try to find a person whom you are not related to to make sure nothing goes wrong in your relationship in the future. Last but not least, be sure to brush up on your threesomesex positions before trying to take any on here.

Speed Dating and Video Chat Lead To Love

Standard

Do you think there’s a reason that all the best casual dating networks use video technology? Of course there is a reason they incorporate it into their services. Aside from people loving to chat with someone sexy from the comfort of their own home, there is some science behind this.

Speed Dating or Video Chat Work Great

According to a couple of psychology researchers at the University of Texas, it’s quite possible that speed dating and video might be more effective that the use of photos if someone is on the hunt for love. Does that mean that the same applies for those looking to hook up only? I have no idea but wouldn’t be surprised really!

The study basically concluded that the use of video or face-to-face interactions had a more positive impact and therefore, a greater chance of folks hitting it off if they took that approach versus browsing through a basic dating profile and using the picture as the main determinant.

I’m not going to get too scientific here since I’m just an ordinary average guy, but I’ll be honest and say that I completely agree with the study. It makes perfect sense when you think about it.

At the end of the day, our objective is to connect with one another and physically meet. We often start by using a profile photo to determine the level of attractiveness that we might feel and we message them if it’s high enough. We do so in hopes that we can video chat or meet up with one another in the very near future. It makes perfect sense really!

This is one of the reasons why I always try and have a nice sexting conversation with my potential date or even video chat if I can before meeting them. A lot of connections can be made in taking this approach.

If you haven’t connected with someone today yet, get your ass online, meet someone for a chat and start that video chat fun. It may even get you laid!

Things To Not Say When Dating Online

Standard

If you’re dating online, then you need to make sure that you’re not saying the wrong things. Doing so can literally destroy your chances of online dating success. That’s why I’m here to share what not to say when it comes to dating online.

dont say dating online

What Not To Say Using Online Dating Sites

Please keep in mind that this type of stuff impacts the immediate level and response rate of actually lining up you dates through the use of an online dating service. If you’re chatting, then you want to avoid these things at all costs.

Sorry
According to an article recently written in Independent.co.uk, online dating users that used the word sorry as an opener were much less likely to get dates versus those that did not. Specifically, 56% less likely. So don’t be foolish. Go with what works! Don’t use the word sorry, period.

My Mom
You’re trying to get laid not get married. Unless you want to sound like a pathetic momma’s boy, don’t use the word ‘mom’ or ‘my mom’ in any dating conversation. No one is looking for that type of person.

Ex-Girlfriend
This should come as a no-brainer but I’ll mention it anyway. Never mention anything about your ex to anyone online and especially not on any profile or conversation starter. It’s not going to get you laid ever. It simply makes a woman think you’ll talk about her the same way.

Next Week / This Weekend
Lastly, don’t use phrases like, ‘next week’ and ‘this weekend’ when you’re trying to connect with someone or set up a date. It’s going to make you look far to wishy-washy and not seem interested enough to want to bang. A complete turnoff to the fullest extent.

That about sums it up. If you’re looking to hook up, just make sure you don’t say what I’ve listed out here and you should be good to go!

Dating Abroad and Studying In College

Standard

If you’re in college, then it’s quite possible that you’re going abroad to study or you’re planning a trip abroad with your friends for the summer. I’ve put together a list of things to remember when dating abroad on your trip. Check this out before you go on your journey abroad.

dating abroad in college

A Few Dating Abroad Tips To Know In College

Without wasting any time here, I’ll get right to the list…

Change App Location

If you’re anything like me, then you’re using a casual dating app already to help you find people to bang. That’s a great start and I suggest that! But you must remember to change your app location if you want to be successful. Some apps make you change them manually and others do it automatically. This is essential when it comes to meeting women in the local area.

Pack Protection

Look, if you’re going to be sticking your ‘you know what’ inside something foreign, then I’d suggest making sure you have the right protection. I’m not saying that the chances of you getting any disease is higher because you’re trying to bang a local girl while abroad. I’m just saying it’s best to not have to worry about it the entire time you’re over there.

Don’t Drink Too Much

Yes, I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again. Do not get so drunk that you don’t remember your own name. Have fun and bang girls while abroad but do so in a manner that’s not going to cause you to be taken advantage of too much. The reason I say this is because according to an article published in USA Today, 37% of individuals surveyed that had studied abroad said they blacked out more or as often as they did at home while being abroad. Those people may or may not have gotten laid a lot. I don’t know but I’d say it’s best to not find out.

Stick and Move

This may sound contrary to everything I’ve said already but while dating abroad, I’d suggest not getting attached to anyone. Instead, hit it and quit it. Just keep moving on and find someone else to fuck while your dating abroad. It makes for a more memorable experience!

Now that you know exactly what’s required of you while dating abroad, I’d suggest that you start packing for your trip. I spent time in Europe and South America while in college. It was the best time of my life and you’ll likely feel the same way!

Grammar Matters In Every Online Dating Aspect

Standard

Okay, so I do not have the best spelling and grammar on the face of this planet. However, you best believe that I put forth great effort in using proper grammar when it comes to dating and communicating online with someone if you are trying to score a date with them.

Regardless how casual the site or app might be that you’re using to try and hook up on. It’s extremely important that you proofread your messages. It may just make or break your online dating experience. The good news is that you’re in luck, there are tools that can help you sound smarter than a 6th grader even if you’re really not.

Grammarly, a Google Chrome grammar checking application, is the recommended app to use when writing anything online to anyone. The company recently teamed up with mainstream dating giant eHarmony in order to conduct a survey on the impact poor grammar and spelling mistakes have on individuals dating experiences. They had surveyed over 10,000 dating profiles and published an infographic to share the results with the world. Here are some of the stats from the study…

The study determined that overall app and site usage increases between January 1 and Valentine’s Day with approximately 11% of American adults using one or the other. There’s also a significant increase in the number of subscribers during this period as well.

The study revealed that men who used the word “whom” properly were 31% more likely to get contacted by the opposite sex. The study also determined that men who wrote “women” on their profile rather than “girls” were 28% more successful. Now, I’m not sure what they mean by success but I’m assuming they had lined up more dates with other members.

I’m going to cut to the chase here, it’s more crucial for men to use proper spelling and grammar versus women. If your profile even has just two spelling or grammar errors then you reduce your chances of getting laid by 14%.

The study revealed that grammar even trumps confidence! I was quite surprised by this one actually. Then again, no one wants to date someone that sounds like a complete moron. being confident and not being capable of doing something most 5th graders can handle is a real turn off.

The bottom line is, read your profile and communicate carefully or you’re drastically reducing your chances of getting laid.

The Half Night Stand Is The New One Night Stand

Standard

Remember when we you used to hang around with friends and talk about your one night stands? So do I! Turns out that having a one night stand is so last year! The new thing that’s in now is the half night stand.

Half Night Stand

The Half Night Stand Has Replaced The One Night Stand

Forget everything you know about one night stands and why they were looked as being so unacceptable or crazy. Society today literally has no time for that. The one night stand is no longer in the cards for most people. College students are busy with school and partying with their friends. Working men and women are busy in meetings or are spending time in the office for hours on end. No one has time to spend the night anymore.

The half night stand seems to be taking off more than ever in the UK. According to Diana Appleyard, “Sex is disposable — you do it, go home and laugh with mates about it on Facebook.” The days of people wanting to go for coffee and hang all day after the act of hooking up is over.

I hate to break the news to you but no one wants to spend time with you. They just want to maybe have a few drinks with you, have sex with you and go home 5 minutes later. Simple as that. It really doesn’t get any easier than that. This is what is known as the half night stand. It’s pretty much the most acceptable way to get laid today. Do yourself a favor and make it a point to do this as many times as you can.

I do it and I get laid more than I can count! If you’re in college  you should try to find someone to have a half night stand with using a hook up dating website. I typically ask the girls if they want to have a couple drinks and hang out for a couple of hours. I keep it at only a couple of hours or few hours. It makes it much easier to setup the half night stand.
