Published on October 19, 2007
I am always hesitant to give women advice for online dating. Primarily, this is based on conversations I had with dates during my internet dating days.

Keep readingThe Internet Dating Guide
Published on October 11, 2007
Earlier this year, I was trying to determine if there was any use for a blog like this.
