The method people are using for dating now days will never be the same way that our parents used years ago. The ways have changed but the feelings are identical and so are the warnings.

It is amazing what people fall for when they are desperate. Anyone who took knowledge of all the scams on Internet which offer guaranteed success in any kind of business for just a small investment probably knows exactly what I mean. Some persons just get crazy about money, and they do stupid things when they should know better.

However, as insane as people get over money, they get even crazier over romance. People get dating advice from anyone. People receive dating tips from psychics, from friends who have almost no relationship experiences, and from so-called specialists with no professional qualifications. From Dr. Phil to the palm reader down at the county fair, the world of dating advice is filled with quacks. Even though they sometimes try to offer good advice, you are always taking a chance when you listen to them. Is it worth the risk?

I used to get relationship advice from a good friend of mine. He presented himself ...
... as a real ladies man, but the reality was much different. It was true that he had many dates with a lot of different girls, but I found out that it was because none of them wanted to go out with him for more than a date or two. We thought he was such a stud at the time that we listened to his dating advice, but it was always awful. All of his romance tips inevitably failed. Sure, his dating advice could help us to find a date. He would help us get our relationship profile in order for online dating services, or practice that ideal pickup line. However, he would not be of any assistance in making relationships last.

When you get dating advice from someone, it is important that you first know a little bit about their personal life. I am not saying that someone who doesn't have a good relationship history can't give good dating advice, but I am saying that it should make you wonder. There are some people who can tell you the right thing to do but can't do it themselves, but for every one of them there are at least five who tell the truth on what they really do. The bottom line is that you should not trust a friend for dating advice just because they think they are experienced. Instead, find a friend who has had at least one very stable relationship and has really good powers of self perception. Get your dating advice from that friend.
