excellent website.

Thanks Andrea for your very fast answer. I did not expect you check your web so often. Sorry I could not post here earlier. Money is not an issue in terms of affordability and thank your for your advice.

Why women react differently to certain men via matching websites versus when they meet in some other circumstances like some where in party or gathering etc?

Thanks Andrea, I actually did discover you on TiVo through onnetworks. I am actually subscribed to a few dating networks though nothing has worked out yet, but I'll keep on trying. I guess practice makes perfect.

Hi Jeff,

Believe it or not, many people write me with the same kind of question...so you're not alone.

A good way to practice dating and get your feet wet is to delve into the world of online dating (at this point, over 40 million Americans are dating online so you'll access a good pool of people).

For some Dating 101, you can subscribe to my dating advice show at www.ondating.tv (the show can also be found other places like Itunes and Tivo). It's free and my advice covers everything from how to create an online profile to how to approach people at a party.

I'm sorry there's not one answer on how to approach dating. I really think it takes practice - but don't put too much pressure on yourself to make every date successful. Dating can be messy and make you feel vulnerable (even if you've done it for years!) but it can also be really fun. Once you get out there a few times, it will become more comfortable and will have been worth the wait!

Good luck, Andrea

Do you have any advice for someone who is very late to the dating game? Because of parents being ultra uptight in regards to dating and girls growing up I wasn't allowed to date or even have a girlfriend until I was a junior in high school (17 at the time) and once I did get a girlfriend we stayed together for a long time (4 years) which was not a good idea as I never learned how to get out there and meet women. I am now 24, almost 25, and I have only had one girlfriend my whole life (we broke up so long ago that she is now married) and I have no idea on even the fundamentals of dating let alone asking women out. All the women I am attracted to have so much more experience at relationships then me and I end up acting like a middle school, pre-pubescent idiot when I finally get around them. Is there anything I can do to quickly make up for lost time and get to where many other 25 year old males are and have some fun without screwing it up?

Hi Sam, I've conducted a survey and most women are turned off if a man doesn't offer to pay the bill on a first date; however, I don't believe a man should foot the bill every time and I'm sorry your date hasn't been gracious enough to offer to pay at some point (or pay for some aspect of your dates) I think that's bad form! In the future if this happens over a number of dates, you may want to arrange cheaper dates (refer to my episode on dating on a budget!) so you're not in this awkward situation.

Thanks for writing and sharing your perspective! *and I'm glad you're a nice guy

Andrea:

Any advice, how can one have girl to pay her share as well after repeated dates?

I am a nice guy and don't take me wrong way. I used to go out with a girl and whenever check about to come, she used to disappear in the restroom for good 15 -20 minutes. Well, in the mean time I cleared the bill as always. But when she emerged back from rest room she did always asked how much she owed or I am inviting her for the meal. It always looked awkward to ask her to pay as I already had paid.

May you you can make an episode on guy side of the story if you happen to believe it.

Hi Joe and Jen,

Do you know each other? (I see you're both from Tampa!) Thanks for the nice message. I'm writing more articles for Yahoo soon, so I'm glad you like them. Have a great summer!

Joe on August 12, 2008 at 10:54 PM said:

I love your articles! Every time I read one of your articles on Yahoo, I think to myself how true they are. You really have a great insight into relationships and a great knowledge of people skills that brings things down to Earth and on level with everyone so that anyone can put your advise to good use. Simply amazing!

Thanks, Lucas - I appreciate it. I've never been to CO but will let you guys know if/when I'm out there! - Andrea

Andrea, there's something really honest and refreshing about your approach. I hope you come out with more episodes soon. Please come out and visit us in Boulder. I'll take you for a beer.
