Toni Braxton changing her dating game.

After a failed marriage, raising a special needs child and fighting a debilitating disease, Toni Braxton is ready to cut loose.

“I’m trying to get comfortable with my inner slut! The inner slut does not just date one person, does she?” Toni jokingly asked The Huffington Post.

“I have to find out if it’s in me!”

Toni, who separated from her husband in 2009, said her dating rules may have changed up a bit and she might not play so hard-to-get these days.

“I was married for all those years. Now I’m getting out there and dating and figuring out sex. Everyone says you have to wait this long, and some people say you can do it whenever you want. I’m trying to get comfortable with that part. When you’re comfortable, you can [have sex] whenever; there are no rules. There are no five dinners anymore. It may be one dinner,” she said.

While Toni mentioned Madonna as a veteran artist who was comfortable with her sexual side, she named Rihanna as a younger singer who’s also liberated.

“My favorite of all the girls is Rihanna. I love her. She’s not afraid of her sexuality. I think in our generation—and not that I’m a million years older than her or anything—but we could only take sexuality to a point. The brave one was Madonna. She did it. She got beat up a lot for it, but she didn’t care. She broke down the original barriers.”

Fear of failure might have kept Toni from being more open in the past, but the singer said she’s not worried about that any more.

“Overall, I’m pretty confident in myself, and I’m not afraid to make mistakes like I was before. If people are going to say something bad about me, who cares? We’re all going to be dead someday,” she said.

Unfortunately for fans, they may not get the chance to see the more liberated Toni on “Braxton Family Values.” Although she won’t be leaving the hit reality series, she won’t be as big a part of it as she has been.

“Well, I’m going to cut back. I’m going to still be on the show, but I’m not going to be as involved as I was in the past,” she said.

New relationship is tested by a dance.

DEAR AMY: I’ve been dating a guy for more than two months. We have been seeing each other exclusively. We both agreed to this.

Last week he told me that he had forgotten something — before we started seeing each other he had made a prior commitment to go to a spring dance with another woman.He said they are just friends and that he did not want to lose out on the $25 he paid for the ticket and that I needed to trust him.I told him that I wasn’t comfortable with him going to a dance with another woman, and I suggested that we go as a couple, but he said that he had already made the commitment to the other woman and that it wasn’t right to cancel.

I trust him, but I’m worried about this other woman. What if she wants to be more than friends? Should I just let this pass since our relationship is still so new, or do you see this as a red flag that he might be a two-timer? — Danced Out

DEAR DANCED OUT: If this guy were really into you and actually committed to dating you exclusively, he would happily toss the $25 out the window and gladly fix up his prospective date with someone else.

On the other hand, if he made this commitment prior to even meeting you, then he should honor it. He also should have told you about it when you discussed your exclusivity.

Let it go, and make your own plan for that night. Don’t suspect the other woman — none of this is her fault. And don’t assume that you are dating exclusively until you have evidence that you are actually exclusive.

DEAR AMY: I have been living with my guy for four years. We really care about each other, enjoy each other and have immense respect for each other. However, we are not sexually intimate.

We have not had intercourse in nearly two years, and I am pretty much okay with this because, to me, while sex is important, it is not the ultimate criterion for happiness in a relationship.

When I attempt to share this part of my life with my friends, they react in complete astonishment that we are not intimate. They say he is cheating because it is unheard of for a man to go without sex. So, if he isn’t making love to me, he is doing it elsewhere.Sometimes these comments can be hurtful, and I wonder, am I being naive? — Unsure.

DEAR UNSURE: You are not being naive. Your friends are harboring incorrect assumptions about what is “normal.”If you and your guy are both happy in your loving but sexless relationship, then I’d say you are both very lucky. You only need to examine your own needs and desires and then endeavor to have the relationship that feels right to you. You sound somewhat ambivalent — and this is the feeling you should explore.

The person to discuss this with is your guy, not your friends.

DEAR AMY: Responding to the “Worried Grandma,” whose pregnant daughter had a rambunctious and territorial Labrador retriever, I have had three Labs.

They are very energetic dogs and tend to act like adolescents for many years. Part of the joy of living with them is their enthusiasm for life.

Like any dog, they need to have serious obedience training to become good family members. Even very small dogs can bite and cause injury if not trained or if stressed too much. Consistent and ongoing training will transform this dog.

My Labs were very tolerant of my nieces and nephews, and sometimes better behaved than they were! Please suggest to your reader that she give her daughter a gift certificate for an obedience training class for her dog.

Even trained dogs should be supervised around small children, though. Not all dogs are as tolerant and gentle as mine, and some children are too rough with pets. — A Lab Lover

DEAR LOVER: I also have a Labrador retriever in my household. I second your love of these dogs, as well as your recommendations.

Parents: Be aware of dating violence.

Parents: Dating violence is a serious issue. A study conducted by the Harvard School of Public Health found that 1 in 5 high school girls has been abused by a dating partner. Unfortunately, many times parents are grossly unaware of the prevalence of dating violence. A study sponsored by Liz Claiborne Inc. discovered that over 80 percent of parents do not even acknowledge teen dating violence as an issue. The majority of parents stated that they have never discussed dating violence with their child and only 8 percent know of any student at their child’s school who has been physically struck by someone they were dating.

Here are some facts about relationship abuse and teens:

1. Twenty-four percent of 14- to 17-year-olds know at least one student who has been the victim of dating violence, yet 81 percent of parents either believe teen dating violence is not an issue or admit they don’t know if it is an issue.

2. Less than 25 percent of teens say they have discussed dating violence with their parents.

3. Eighty-nine percent of teens between 13 and 18 say they have been in dating relationships; 40 percent of teenage girls ages 14 to 17 report knowing someone their age who has been hit or beaten by a boyfriend.

4. Nearly 80 percent of girls who have been physically abused in their intimate relationships continue to date their abuser.

5. Of the women between the ages of 15-19 murdered each year, 30 percent are killed by their husband or boyfriend. It’s not always easy to recognize if a teen is in a violent relationship. Surprisingly, abusers are often charming in public, especially to parents — so pay more attention to how he treats your daughter and less to how polite he may be to you. Here are some other signs to look for:

She apologizes for his behavior and makes excuses for him.She loses interest in activities she used to enjoy.She stops seeing friends and family members and becomes more and more isolated.When your daughter and her boyfriend are together, he calls her names and puts her down in front of other people.He acts extremely jealous of others who pay attention to her, especially other guys.He thinks or tells your daughter that you (her parents) don’t like him.

He controls her behavior, checking up on her constantly and demanding to know whom she has been with.She casually mentions his violent behavior but laughs it off as a joke.You see him violently lose his temper, striking or breaking objects.She often has unexplained injuries or the explanations she offers don’t make sense.

Parents, dating violence exists! Make positively sure you discuss this possibility with your daughter. Open and honest parent and teen discussions are very important for your daughter’s safety.

Lady Gaga Born This Way Ball: Protesters, Fans Gather in Seoul as World Tour Kicks Off.

Moments before hitting the stage in Seoul, South Korea, Lady Gaga wrote to her adoring fans on Twitter, “I can hear you Korea. I’m shaking.”

Outside Seoul Olympic Stadium, where the 26-year-old superstar chose to have the first show from her tour, called the Born This Way Ball, hundreds of fans decked out in their Lady Gaga best waited in line to get in.

Perhaps Gaga’s Twitter message was also for the hundreds of Christian student protesters who were outside the stadium. All week, the group has been calling for a nationwide boycott of Gaga’s concert and even companies that have ties with the singer.

“Some people can accept this as another culture but its impact is huge beyond art and debases religions. Even adults can’t see her performance which is too homosexual and pornographic,” Yoon Jung-hoon told Reuters on Friday. Yoon is a reverend behind “Civilians Network against the Lady Gaga Concert.”

Even with the Korea Media Rating Board changing its concert admittance age from 12 to 18 years old, protestors have been making plenty of noise. Earlier this week, more than 300 Protestant church members gathered for a prayer against Lady Gaga, her music and her concert.

“We pray to God that the concert will not be realized so that homosexuality and pornography will not spread around the country,” protester Kang Ju-Hyun told the AFP on Sunday.

Except for a series of tweets in early April when the concert admittance age was changed, Gaga has remained relatively silent on the subject, sticking mostly to posts about concert merchandise, rehearsal and anything related to the Born This Way Ball.

“Nervous for tonight. Hope I make my little monsters happy and proud . . . this is a very special moment for Haus of Gaga. We thank you so much. Enjoy our music, fashion installations & pop performance art tonight,” Gaga wrote on the eve of her tour opener.

The Born This Way Ball continues May 2 in Hong Kong, with a four night stint, before heading to Tokyo, Japan for three shows.

Kristen Stewart – Kristen Stewart Is World’s Best Dressed.

Kristen Stewart has been voted the world’s best dressed woman.

The ‘Twilight’ actress topped a poll by Britain’s Glamour magazine and was praised by the publication for her progression from ”awkward teen to style queen” and for always being ”effortlessly on-trend”.

Kristen beat last year’s winner Emma Watson, with the ‘Harry Potter’ star managing a respectable second place while Victoria Beckham came third.

The singer-turned-fashion designer shot up 12 places from last year with the magazine praising the ”adorable co-ordinating looks” she shares with ”her new favourite accessory” – nine-month-old daughter Harper.

Britain’s Duchess Catherine was honoured for her classic and stylish fashion sense with fourth place.

The magazine said: ”The Duchess of Cambridge’s classic elegance has set the high street alight, causing both Zara and Reiss to sell out of her favourite pieces.”

Other stars in the top 10 included Florence Welch, Cheryl Cole and Rihanna while Katie Price, Lady Gaga, Taylor Momsen, Kim Kardashian and Nikki Reed were named the top five worst dressed.

Lady Gaga – Lady Gaga Stirs Up Controversy At First Stop Of Tour.

Lady Gaga kick started her Born This Way Ball tour with a concert in the capital of South Korea, Seoul that fans under the age of 18 were forbidden to attend. The Asian capital was the scene of protests against the artist’s provocative imagine prior to her show, which took place in the city’s Olympic Stadium. A small group of Christian protesters gathered outside the stadium prior to the show to remonstration against the ‘Born This Way’ singer as she performed to approximately 45000 fans inside the stadium.

Objectors have been protesting against the singer weeks before the tour kicked off, claiming that the singer is ‘obscene’ and could ‘taint’ young people. The group, calling themselves the Civilians Network Against the Lady Gaga Concert, have demonised the performance, as it was “too homosexual and pornographic.” Those lucky enough to attend the concert seemed unmoved by the demands placed by pressure groups, with attendees showing up to the gig in flamboyant costumes similar to what the singer is famed for wearing.

The tour will travel across the Euro-Asian continents before arriving in the UK by September, with the first performance kicking off at Twickenham Stadium in London.

Jessica Simpson’s Overdue Pregnancy Worries Her Co-Stars; Katy Perry, Snooki And Other Celebs ‘Anxious’ And ‘Frightened’.

Nearly 12 months have passed since Jessica Simpson announced her pregnancy, and not only her fans but her co-stars are also getting anxious about her seemingly endless overdue pregnancy.
Simpson announced during Halloween (in October 2011) that she was six months pregnant with her first child with fiancé Eric Johnson. And if that’s true then it has been over 42 weeks (if not, than at least 9 months) since she got pregnant, but the child hasn’t arrived yet.
According to the last report from her representative in March, doctors had apparently pushed her due date to April 20 as “she has gained so much weight and the baby is so huge.” All the rumored due dates have passed, but Simpson seems to be “still pregnant.”

Last week, her fans tweeted their concern and some even congratulated her, assuming that she had become a mom by then. Ultimately, Simpson had to intervene and clarify that the baby was still in her womb.

“I’m still pregnant!! Don’t believe what you read ladies and gents,” the 31-year-old star wrote.

Simpson has herself expressed her fears about having an excessively huge baby bump and her “athletic” baby girl; however, as days pass by, her overdue pregnancy is making her fellow stars anxious. They are worried about the baby and the mother.

Katy Perry tweeted, “Has Jessica Simpson had that baby yet?! I’m getting anxious.”

Certainly, it’s not only Katy who is concerned about the “Fashion Star” mentor. Even Chelsea Handler voiced her sentiment on Simpson’s pregnancy.

“How has jessica simpson still not given birth to this baby? I’m getting frightened,” she wrote on her Twitter page.

Simpson’s state has indeed left other pregnant stars worried. “Jersey Shore” star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi is five months pregnant and is taking proper caution in her eating habits to avoid such a state, unlike Simpson who is totally giving in to her cravings with slutty brownies and cookies.

“I’m trying to each healthy – fruits, lots of jelly and Italian ices. Nothing fattening at all,” Snooki said. “I would die if I were her size,” she told Us Weekly.

Be it for whatever reason, but Jessica’s overdue pregnancy is a serious concern for her fans and co-stars, who have been eagerly waiting for baby “Maxwell” from a long time.

Christina Aguilera – Christina Aguilera Branded “A B***H” By The Wanted.

After appearing on the US version of hit talent show ‘The Voice,’ UK boy-band the Wanted have declared that Christina Aguilera, the US show’s judge, completely ignored them back stage at the show with band-mate Tom Parker saying she is “a total b*tch.”

In an interview on Now FM, The Wanted have admitted their disappointment after the singer completely ignored them after the show, an act they’ve claimed as being “quite rude” as well as worthy of being labelled a “b*tch.” It is unknown what the boys exactly expected to receive from the noted diva in the first place, but they were clearly disappointed by her snub backstage at the popular show.

In an attempt to make the singer seem more human and tone down the group’s remarks, band member Nathan Sykes added she might have been “in a bad mood that day,” adding that she may very well have given Justin Bieber the same treatment as well. However, it appears that the boys have soon got over the snub, with member Max George stating that the ‘Genie In A Bottle’ singer is “nothing special and that he prefers Latina diva Jennifer Lopez instead.

Kim Kardashian Denies Nude Kitchen Photo: ‘It’s Not Me’.

No, that’s not Kim Kardashian naked in the kitchen, frying an egg.

On Thursday, MediaTakeOut posted a photo they claimed was an older snapshot of Kardashian before breast enlargement surgery, and today reps for the reality TV queen are denying it’s her.

“It’s not her. You can totally tell. It looks nothing like her,” a rep for Kardashian told the Daily Mail.

To be fair, it looks exactly like her, but given that Kim already has a sex tape under her belt, has posed for Playboy (NSFW) and constantly tweets scantily clad photos, we’re inclined to believe her.

The photo in question is actually quite flattering, and there is no real reason for Kim’s camp to deny it’s her, besides the fact that the website claims it’s proof that the 31-year-old had breast augmentation. Kim is known for her curves and she’s gone to great lengths to prove her assets are real. In 2008, she posted a photo of her teenage self looking busty in a bikini to prove she’s never needed help filling out a shirt, and last year she even had her butt X-rayed to prove she didn’t have implants.

Lesbian Dating Guru Milly DuBouchet Gives Us Some Advice.

PAPERMAG’s gay editorial content tends to err on the side of guys, guys and more guys, but what about the girls, girls and more girls? We’re making an effort to even things out a little more around here and we’re kicking things off with a little post on lesbian dating-whisperer Milly DuBouchet of the website LezFactor.

More than a year ago, Milly DuBouchet quit her full-time job as a financial advisor to help lesbians in New York up their dating game. She launched the website LezFactor, a counseling service that helps lesbians navigate dating via mixers and, for the more serious client, personal consultations.

DuBouchet says she’s qualified to help people find love because she’s, “In a seven-year relationship that’s going strong and we’re incredibly happy. Would you rather seek advice from someone who hasn’t had success with romance or has found her happiness? Plus, no disrespect to the Millionaire Matchmaker [Patti Stanger] but I’m a lot nicer.”

DuBouchet’s advice for a first date: keep things short and casual, like running errands together. “I’m totally against the traditional date,” she says. “People get nervous and over zealous when planning a date and it shouldn’t be that serious.”

And if the date’s not the greatest? “I suggest that you get to know her anyway,” DuBouchet says. “Maybe you can find some interaction outside of the romantic world. Or, maybe you can hook her up with a friend.”

Or maybe you can hook up with one of her friends.

Test out DuBouchet’s theories and your own here: LezFactor is hosting a mixer and after-party Saturday at the Vault, the lower level of Elements, at 225 E. Houston Street. Admission is $10.

Adventures in dating: My dating diary.

Waiting at Waterloo train station I stand with baited breath. I’m waiting for a date, but the problem is, I can’t remember what he looks like. I met him the week before but it was a poorly lit bar and I was pretty drunk. I had been out of the dating game for a while and this guy was pretty persistent so my friend persuaded me to go. Walking towards me I see a tall, dark and handsome man. He’s definitely my type; this must be him I thought. I smile at him; he smiles back but keeps on walking by. Just my luck, I thought. A few minutes later a skinny, scrawny male appears. This can’t be him I say to myself. What do you think? Now there’s nothing wrong with skinny, scrawny men but I’m not a skinny, scrawny girl so it’s not a good match. Anyway, we end up going to the nearest restaurant, ordered some food and before I even had the chance to finish my first glass of wine, my date leans in and asks, ‘Will you be my girl?’

You see, that’s the problem most girls have these days. We either find guys who string us along with no intention to make us their girlfriend or the keen beans who are just plain desperados. Then there’s the girl who has it all but still ponders if she can get better. What we want is a man who’s going to sweep-us off our feet and treat us like a princess. Any girl who says she doesn’t is lying. Living in London, I’ve had the pleasure of dating a variety of men. Many choose to online date but with so many things to do in London, there are several places with opportunities to meet men. There’s the gym, work, parties and the most common of all- a night club. I’ve never been a fan of meeting guys in bars and clubs and I always say it’s not possible to find your husband on a drunken night out- my story above backs me up.

However, one night in particular, I was convinced I’d met my answer to Tyson Beckford. He was tall, 6′5, chocolate skin and the cutest face I’d ever seen. He had impeccable dress sense and the way he carried himself showed his confidence which I was very attracted to. We swapped numbers at the end of the night and I went home hoping he would contact me. I was delighted when he did and we arranged to meet-up the following week. I left the arrangements of what we should do to him, but his suggestion was, ‘How about you come to mines and we eat sweets and watch films in bed.’ Not my idea of the ideal first date I had hoped for. It was clear what he was after but I wasn’t going to make it that easy on him. In the end, we went for dinner but he rolled his eyes and looked at his watch the whole way through. After asking for the bill, he says, ‘Let’s go back to yours.’ I ended up paying for my side of the bill and kindly leaving. Prick. Another classic example of night-club dating gone wrong.

You see, it doesn’t take a genius on how to treat a girl right. If you feel you’re being taken advantage of and not being made to feel as special as you’d hoped, chances are, he’s just not that into you. Girls appreciate the smallest of gestures as it shows us that you care. One night this guy I was dating turned-up at my house with a bottle of wine and a box of chocolates. The same guy helped me when I needed him the most. You see, you don’t have to buy a girl diamonds and expensive gifts to do the sweeping-off-the-feet I was referring to earlier. Manners go along way too. I was once on a date with a guy and in the middle of the conversation, covered my ears so he could do a loud fart. Nice.

Finding that special somebody seems like the hardest job in the world, but it isn’t. Making sure we don’t lose him, is. Once you’ve secured a date with that one guy you’ve had your eye on, it’s all about making sure he sticks around long enough so he can start falling in love with the real us. Shall we act cool and breezy or persistent and keen? You’re damned if you do and you’re damned if you don’t. Surely all this game playing ends when you find the one? If we show a man our real emotions too soon will he run for the hills? Here’s to getting the fairytale ending that I’m hoping for.

TV Watchers: Who’s Jon Gosselin dating now?

Jon Gosselin has a new girlfriend. Is anyone surprised?

However this time he is dating Liz Jannetta, a single mom of three who works with him according to Life & Style Magazine.

And apparently Liz is closer to his own age that the string of 20-somethings the Berks County dad of 8 has been squiring around since divorcing Kate in 2009.

She even has the profile picture on her Facebook page showing what looks like her smooching the cheek of the former star of “Jon & Kate Plus 8.”

Meanwhile Kate has remained very publicly single. Even the tabloids haven’t been able to connect her with any confirmed flings. She quashed the most recent rumor that she was seeing someone behind her kids back on her blog “Kate plus my 8″ writing “Unless my running shoes, kitchen utensils, or wrapping paper are considered “dates,” I have not been on any dates and certainly no “blind dates” set up by friends.

Jon however has no qualms about seeing lots of other women.

When he and Kate split he started dating Hailey Glassman, the daughter of Kates’ tummy-tuck surgeon; and then moved on to a volatile relationship with Central Catholic grad Kate Major. Most recently he was dating Ellen Ross, who is now posting about her new man on her advice column blog.

Puppy Love: New Online Dating Sites for Dogs.

There once was a time where pet owners could sign up for an online dating site called Date My Pet to express their love for their pets. According to website, new sites such as site for your dogs to meet other canine friends and SpotWag, a support service to help you find the best doggy hotel or sitter for when you travel can help man’s best friend find love and happiness on the Internet.

When I first received a Facebook friend request from Neo McKibben, my friend’s therapy dog at Northridge Hospital, it was the first of many pet profiles that arrived in my inbox. As one in ten pets now has a social media profile, it’s no wonder that these niche dating and social networking sites are popping up on the Internet. Neo now has 264 friends and a relationship status of “It’s Complicated.” Neo graduated in 2005 from Therapy Dogs Inc. and has worked at several hospitals in the Los Angeles area, quite an impressive bio for another pet to consider friending or mating with.

We buy high-end purses such as the JCLA Boutique’s Rescue Me Totes for our dogs to reside in while driving around town. We schedule neighborhood dog walks, and dress our pets in outfits and booties worth being viewed on Rodeo Drive. Shouldn’t our devoted four-legged friends have an opportunity to find love online?

Tulisa Contostavlos – Tulisa Dating ‘A Very Nice Guy’: Who Is It?

Tulisa Contostavlos spoke candidly about the sex-tape that threatened to derail her blossoming career during an appearance on Alan Carr’s show Chatty Man this week. The comedian probed her about the tape, which also features her ex-boyfriend Justin Edwards, and the former N Dubz star was happy to discuss it.

According to the UK’s Metro newspaper, Tulisa had been living in fear after she was tipped off last summer that Justin, 28, was planning on leaking the tape. Having already secured a seat on the X Factor judging panel, Contostavlos admitted, “It’s been torture for about 8 months”. The singer said she confided in her friend and X Factor producer Beth Hart, “I said: “Look there’s a possibility my ex has this footage and wants to release it. What is it going to do to my career? How is it going to affect me?…She said to me at the time that she didn’t know, she wasn’t sure. Which frightened me even more, obviously”.

Once the tape eventually leaked, Tulisa was praised for how she handled the situation – which involved making a YouTube video and coming clean to her fans. Looking to the future, Tulisa told Carr, “‘I’m in a relationship and he’s a very nice guy”, which is rumored to be Skins star Jack O’CONNELL.

Embrace change in the dating game.

By The Way > The unwritten law demands that men approach women. what if the men you desire don’t make the move?
I have no intention of turning this into a dear aunt column. This is because I am not a relationship expert but even then after a long soul search, I thought this deserved a listening ear.
I got a very interesting question from a concerned reader who is confused about the so-called rules of engagement in dating.
In a previous article, I mentioned that some men feel intimidated by today’s assertive women who approach them and are fast changing the hunting rules hence making the game less exciting.
This reader says she is confused about whether or not it is okay for a woman to initiate conversation with a man especially if the intention is to show interest and hopefully start a relationship.
Her argument is based on the fact that there are men who may like a woman but are too shy to approach her. “Is there anything wrong with giving a helping hand is the feelings are unadulterated? she asks.
It is true; many men I know swear that a woman hitting on them is just not the right kind of move. But guys this is a new era and many things in life have changed and so has the dating game.
Women have been empowered to make their own decisions and follow their own rules. I always say you cannot tell your heart who to love but can decide to give yourself a chance to choose who to be with. If a woman likes a man and she feels he is good enough for her, why not go for it, if he is too blind to see?
You might argue that certain things are better left untouched including the fact that men by creation are supposed to be the initiators and heads of family.
I once read a book called the Laws of Seduction that advises women on how to subtly seduce men without actually doing it. Why go through all the trouble? If a man feels intimidated by a woman who approaches him, he is either too much of a traditionalist to embrace the new woman but also shady.
Even women seem to be undecided on the whole issue, others find nothing wrong with it, while others fear that it will scare the man away or make him less interested or even make him think she’s loose or desperate.
Another pal of mine said that if a man likes you but is not approaching you then he’s probably not so into you.
I see nothing wrong with it because I do know that this is an era of free will and women can do whatever they want as long they feel it’s good for them. I once saw a T-shirt written; “It’s your loss if you cannot handle this.” So if a man feels he cannot handle a woman who hits on him then it’s his loss.
The fact is, there are some men who are actually very shy and will almost never approach a woman no matter how interested they may be, some actually need help to do it. Besides, who invented the dating game anyway? What do you feel about the whole issue of  hitting on a man a do or a don’t?

Mila Kunis Had Her First Ever Kiss With Teenage Crush Ashton Kutcher.

Everyone who has watched “That 70s Show,” must have a good memory of Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis as a couple.
Hanging out as friends, playing around, fighting and kissing, they were a great duo on the screen. But there is something interesting amid all the rumors of the two dating.

Ashon Kutcher is the first person the “Black Swan” actress has ever kissed! It was during one of the romantic moments on the sets of “That 70s show” that the duo locked lips.

So now we know why their bond of friendship has been going so strong and for so long.

Kunis, now 28, was just a teenager back then and everyone knows that the first kiss always has a special place in one’s heart. Is that what the latest rumors are all about?

The fact has been dug out by People Magazine which revisited an interview with Kunis in the year 1998 where she admitted that Kutcher is the first one she ever kissed.

Then 14-year-old Kunis had said “I was like, “Oh, he’s so cute, it’s the Calvin Klein model!”

“Then I was like, “I have to kiss him?’ I was so nervous and uncomfortable. I had the biggest crush on him.”
She had also revealed that to make herself feel better and get herself out of nervousness, she sprayed some perfume. “I totally perfumed myself and I was like, ‘Hey, I feel better about myself!” she said.
Kutcher, now 34, admitted in 2001 that it was shocker for him to know that he was the first person ever that Kunis kissed. “I’m the first guy she kissed? Oh my god, I had no idea! I’m so glad I didn’t know that or it would’ve been too much pressure,” he had said.

After visiting a bit of the past, it does not seem too difficult to imagine that Kelso and Jackie from the show perhaps could date after all these years.

Kutcher and Kunis have been spotted together spending some cozy time over the weekend. Both friends have recently come out of long-time relationships. While Demi moore filed for a divorce from Kutcher last year November, Kunis also broke-up with boyfriend Macaulay Culkin in January this year.

However, the friends have denied all rumors about an affair between them.

A representative of Kunis told Celebuzz “They’ve been friends for years, and they had dinner with a bunch of friends. They’re not dating.”
As for Ashton Kutcher, he has been linked with half the Hollywood beauties so far. After allegedly breaking ex-wife Demi Moore’s heart on the night of their wedding anniversary, he is already rumored to have dated almost half a dozen women including Rihanna, Lorene Scafaria and Mila Kunis, with the latest being an unidentified blonde woman.

Hey Baby, What’s Your Sinai?

Teaching ex-Orthodox Jews how to date in New York.

“If I could work magic in your dating life,” Israel Irenstein says, “what would you have me change?” We’re sitting at a table at Pret A Manger in Union Square, and Irenstein, a 35-year-old dating coach dressed neatly in a pale green Tommy Hilfiger button-down, is talking with Sam, a 29-year-old ex-Orthodox Jew. Sam looks terrified behind his wire-rimmed glasses. Clutching the strap of his bag under the table as if it’s the leash of an unruly dog, he displays an impressive commitment to deflection—responding to Irenstein’s personal questions by spouting perplexing theories, including, “A major aspect of the notion of getting better at dating is not about increasing the total numbers, but increasing the yield of the process.”

Irenstein tries a new angle: “Who do you think wants sex more,” he asks Sam, “men or women?” Sam concedes that this may not be a universal truth, but in his experience women totally want it more.

According to Irenstein, lack of self-confidence pervades the recently ex-Orthodox, who refer to themselves as OTD, or “Off the Derech” (derech is Hebrew for path). Once they’ve gone off the path, for a variety of reasons including loss of faith, distaste for the lifestyle, and longing to educate themselves beyond the Jewish texts, OTD’ers are like immigrants in the secular world, unsure of the language and customs of dating, battling the voices of their parents and rabbis, who warned them that touching the opposite sex before marriage would incur God’s wrath.

“There are three problems specific to the ex-religious when they first try to date,” Irenstein says. “Inexperience, having no identity, and having no understanding of the opposite sex.” That makes sense when you consider how insular the Orthodox communities are. Premarital sex, even premarital touching, is prohibited. And there is a rule for everything, including which shoelace to tie first and what to do with one’s facial hair. OTD’ers who come to Irenstein never had the awkward, albeit formative, experiences the rest of us had—slow-dancing with some height-inappropriate partner in seventh grade, locking braces with someone in the back of a movie theater, getting to “second base.” Their questions for Irenstein range from the peculiar such as, “Is it OK to pay a girl $80 to go out with me?” to the commonplace concerns of men on the New York dating scene: “How many dates before I should allow her to split the check?”

Irenstein doesn’t just answer their questions about the game; he shoves the men out onto the field. By the end of his session with Sam, he’ll have Sam approaching girls, trying to score a phone number, or at least to touch an elbow during some flirtatious banter.

At 29, Irenstein was married with two daughters, living in the Hasidic community he’d grown up in. He remembers his 6-year-old coming home from school and telling him that non-Jews existed solely to witness the good deeds of the Jews. He’d wanted out of Hasidism for a while, but that was the day he pulled his kids out of school and laid plans to move. “I would have done anything,” says Irenstein, “even given up my own life, to make sure my kids weren’t forced into cult living.”

Having grown up in Israel and Brooklyn, Irenstein landed in secular New York with a third-grade-level education and a mediocre grasp of English. When he and his wife divorced, he found himself on foreign ground. “I had no idea how to talk to women,” he says. “I’d never even looked one in the eye.” Irenstein’s former Hasidic community, Gur, is one of the strictest sects, as well as one of the most sexually squeamish. Even married couples aren’t supposed to kiss, and they’re allowed sex only for purposes of procreation.

Frustrated by his own cluelessness, Irenstein turned to pick-up artists and dating coaches, including New York Dating Coach, as well as to self-help books, Tony Robbins’ confidence-building seminars, and therapy. He was less interested in learning pickup lines and routines than he was in retraining his brain; he wanted to project self-confidence. Today, that’s what he teaches—that if you feel good about yourself, you’ll have an easier time with the opposite sex. It sounds basic, but to many OTD’ers, it’s not.

A naturally outgoing person, Irenstein learned quickly and his dating life began to thrive. He, became a dating coach himself, sometimes freelancing for New York Dating Coach, other times taking on private clients. But he doesn’t charge for the one-on-one coaching he offers people like Sam and the dating seminars he conducts at Footsteps, a nonprofit that helps OTD’ers assimilate. “People helped me,” Irenstein says, “so I make it a point to help others.”

“At Footsteps, the men come in wondering, ‘If I go with someone to a movie, how do I know if it’s a date or if we’re just friends?’” says Lani Santo, the group’s executive director.  “‘Where can I meet people to date? Can I only meet people in bars? That’s what I’ve seen in movies.’ When people are segregated by gender from a young age, learning how to navigate dating and relationships is an enormous challenge.”

Ryan Pollack, a 35-year-old Footsteps member,  reminisces about his early days in the secular world. “I met girls,” he says, “but I was constantly in the ‘friend zone.’ I had no clue how to take things to the next level.” When he met Irenstein at Footsteps, Irenstein invited him to a pool party. Pollack brought a girl with him and Irenstein pulled him aside to say, “She likes you. Kiss her.” Never having kissed a girl, he was scared, but with Irenstein’s encouragement, he went for it. “That changed my life,” Pollack says. Soon after, Irenstein took him shopping. Since growing out of baby clothes, Pollack had worn nothing but the requisite white button-down shirt and black pants. “He showed me Calvin Klein,” Pollack recalls. “He showed me blazers! I started wearing blazers with jeans and the response I got was incredible. People started looking at me. Girls would say, ‘You look so handsome.’”

After a couple of hours of talking in circles with Sam, about whether or not he wants to be in a relationship (“some people do want a relationship, and some people don’t want a relationship”), about his dating experience (“I don’t know how you define that”), and about whether or not he’d like to just have some sex—OK, that one was my question (“That’s hard to answer because the answer has a lot of implied meanings”), Irenstein leads him out into Union Square to talk to some real live women.

We stand outside Barnes & Noble, watching the people pass. Irenstein points to a woman sitting nearby, engrossed in her BlackBerry, and starts feeding Sam lines:  “Tell her you’re waiting for somebody and that it looks like she’s waiting for somebody,” Irenstein suggests. “Say you can babysit each other for 5 minutes.”

With his relaxed posture and easy smile, Irenstein could pull off a line like that no problem. But Sam hesitates. With his hands shoved deep into his pockets, his refusal to hold eye contact, and his man purse, he’s likely to bomb.

“If you think so much,” Irenstein says, “she’s gonna be gone. Go.”

Sam wanders toward her, stops, loops back around and returns to us to report that she’s wearing ear buds.

“She’ll take them out!” Irenstein says, pushing him back toward her.

Sam approaches the girl again, and says something to her that causes her to look up briefly before returning to her phone. Sam stares at her for a second, his arms hanging at his sides, before sitting beside her and gazing into middle distance, as if he’d always planned to sit right there because where else would he sit? Eventually, Irenstein walks over and rescues him.

Of course, approaching a stranger and engaging her in conversation takes a degree of self-certainty, a sense that you’ll remain basically intact if rejected. But Sam is a man who, half an hour earlier, couldn’t tell Irenstein what his favorite color is, what his favorite food is, or what kind of weather he likes. “Do you exist?” Irenstein shouted at him. “You need to exist!” When Sam started to argue with him, Irenstein interrupted, “Don’t argue with me! Do you understand? I was like you!”

But Irenstein is not giving up: “People who leave the religious community are very strong,” he tells me. “It’s very hard to do. But once they’re out, they use that strength to move on. To move forward.”

“You’ve got a lot going for you,” he tells Sam. “But you have work to do. It starts here,” he says pointing to his head. “You have to fix what’s in here.”

Shopogolizm – is a disease. At least that’s according to the West. It sounds scary, but not hopeless. Almost half of our contemporaries suffer from this “women’s mania” (for example, in the United States counted about 60 million “dependent”). However, not all give it due importance. But when your wallet is getting thinner and unnecessary things accumulate more and more, there really should think seriously: is not it time to look at yourself?

As you know, our psychological problems (which include shopogolizm) from childhood. Or rather, so do not come into the old systems that arise against the background of a lack of parental attention, loneliness or insecurity. And yet raging hormones, depression, conflict at work, disorders in the family. Here’s the complete list of stressful situations that push us to run for another blouse.

At such moments, the brain secretes hormones of happiness – serotonin. They are loyal aides to fight the blues and bad mood. Scientists have found: Before buying a women completely lack the ability to think rationally.

And no wonder. With such a huge number of shops and an abundance of goods, especially in seasons of sales, it is easy to lose your head. What to say about advertising. She is a psychologist, a subtle effect on the subconscious.

But do not despair. You can help yourself by adhering to some simple rules:

Do not go shopping in the pay day. In a buoyant mood is a huge risk to spend most of the money.
Keep an eye on your costs and make a list of what needs to acquire.
Not vedis tempting offers to sellers. And remember, you need not out of respect for the consultants to buy anything that was trying.
Find a hobby, passion for souls. Then the desire to run around the shop “had nothing to do” will appear more often.
Feel that the issue is gaining serious speed? It is better to consult a specialist. There is nothing to be ashamed, because your mental state is more important than the opinions of others.

Well, if the painful craving for purchases does not prevent either you live or your family, then you can safely go for fashionable novelties. After all, while another pair of shoes did not hurt, right?

Behavior women

Accenting the thumbs, for example, the hands – in their pockets, and thumbs – the outside, said that you dislike the women, and she feels superior to you.

A women plucking hairs from his nonexistent clothes, usually sits, turning away from others, and looks at the floor, and at that time engaged in their little insignificant thing. This is the most popular gesture of disapproval.

When the listener is constantly robbing the fibers from his clothes, it is a sure sign that she does not like everything that is said here, even if it is in words almost everyone agrees.

But if it begins to torment her purse strap with his right hand, hanging on his left shoulder, or vice versa (left – right shoulder strap), then it probably scared, but she does not want to show. This is a disguised gesture of protection. For the same reason it would keep a bunch of flowers or a bag with two hands.

A woman expresses her fear more directly, if the hand would cover the chest. If she reached his right hand to left ear lobe (or vice versa), it is – the same movement, only hidden. The hand covering the body, is always fear.

The most common gesture, expressing intense, “defensive” state – arms crossed on his chest. Perhaps the lady in love with death and afraid you do not like, and maybe, depending on your signature on her application for leave, but one thing is clear – she is afraid of you. If the brush crossed arms – on the first segment, then it tries to curb negative emotions.

But if the women grabbed the sleeve of your jacket or coat – it is not afraid of you, but something else. In any case, try to unhook it immediately. In women, peripheral vision is qualitatively better than men – your companion may have seen bullies, you still do not notice, and, of course, hangs on your right hand (if you’re left-handed, on the left).

Russian woman laughing

How do I know her character to laugh?

If a Russian woman laughs openly and frankly to your society, you will definitely like it. But this optimistic conclusion limit is not enough because a lot of female laughter can tell you about the nature of your lady. So how do you characterize a Russian woman laugh?

In many books, films, and in life, for fun flirtatious entrenched image of the present Wives, and men like it. These Russian woman are laughing as if slightly embarrassed, but their eyes sparkle mischievously as two diamonds. In general, there need not be a genius to guess – a night of love with this Russian woman certainly want to repeat.

Her laugh restrained and quiet. She shyly covers her mouth with his hand, as if laughing at something indecent (even if the joke was actually quite harmless.)

- Before you timid and shy Russian woman.

Laughter ringing and leaping

She will be glad your so very common, courting, in general, as well the usual sex, no frills. But this does not mean that she is not ready to experiment.
If you see any movement indicates a “discovery”, it says that the Russian woman is ready to fully trust you.

Three indicators of women’s interest

Eye contact

Before speaking with a woman, try to establish direct contact with her eyes. Often you can see that she quickly looks away quickly and then looks at you. If she holds eye contact, not taking them, it is – a definite sign that you are interested in her. Also, when she knows that you look at it, note how she interacts with friends and the environment. Try to find something that indicates the level of nervousness. This proves that she hired her and you hate to hide.

Touching hair

For some mysterious reason, the woman show their interest in relation to the guy playing with his hair. Watching as it relates to her hair, you will learn the extent of its interest. Once you make eye contact, explore how it relates to hair. The first thing you should look for, it should shake the hair. If you can see how she flips her hair with one hand to another, and then looks directly at you, it indicates that she definitely wishes to you and would like you to come with her to talk. Some other signs include caressing the hair, when she talks to friends or winding up of hair on his finger. If you see this action together with the views in your direction, then obviously you are sending an unequivocal message.

Treatment of her body in your direction

A powerful way to learn to like you a woman is to watch how she moves the body after the install of the initial eye contact. When it puts your body in your direction, then it shows that she enchanted by you. By studying it, looking for certain indicators, which show a subconscious desire. Some gestures may include:

Feet pointing at you
Demonstration of the wrists
Breeding feet

If you see any movement indicates a “discovery”, it says that the woman is ready to fully trust you.

How difficult it is to Russian women! You can, of course, do not go into details and be satisfied with two explanations of all the “women’s stuff”: a Russian women wants money (always) and that it flew like a sack of recorded (same time). Plus – from time to time she needs sex (but not the fact that with you).

But it’s better to learn how to manage a woman to come with her to compromise and consensus. And for this we must comprehend the secret language of Russian women!

You do not hear about it? That’s right, about him until no one in Russia and did not write. Why? Because Russian women are discreet enough to unveil the hidden information about themselves, and men did not conduct research in this area, they still had enough research themselves. Yet even in the 1970s in America found a group of enthusiasts who smeknuli: one woman came out of the kitchen, and even outside of his home and even started to hold public office and became a public figure, it is time to study it neverbaliki! Otherwise, you can run into unintended consequences!

For 30 years, experiments were conducted to study the nonverbal language of women. First, developments have been approved at meetings of various scientific meetings. After a while, there was their popular version, which is in the form of books «What she really want?» Began in 2005, a bestseller. We read it and told in Russian.

We believe that the American neverbalika not too different from neverbaliki Russian. However, you judge. Compare your experience with the above website.

The disorganization of the Soviet Union has resulted in appearing a situation when Russian women can reach out to the men out of their country. In fact, Western men are turning to this country to find Russian brides chat. With the help of the Web and online dating websites, selecting Russian brides chat has become a typical and attractive option for Western life men. Online dating agencies have mushroomed in Russia. There are numerous online agencies providing Russian brides to possible grooms abroad. The popularity of the online agencies is because of different factors including economics and culture.

Online dating is a means for American and European men to communicate with possible Russian brides chat. Meeting Russian brides on the Web are a great alternative, which the customary offline-dating scene, as goals and compatibility can be set from the outset. Some concerns about mutual goals, compatibility, logistics and personality are usual to both women and men. Several of these agencies give details for both women and men to go through prior to deciding on a possible partner. Addresses of wonderful Russian brides typically come with a cost tag.

Despite the popularity, online dating agencies pose a much greater component of risk than any “mail order” companies. They permit straight contact between women and men. Usually, these online dating agencies do not modernize their databases thus their authenticity leaves much to be desired.

Many Russian brides chat websites are located in Russia. The common Internet Russian dating company publishes roughly 15-20% of the info received. Certain agencies choose only from 1 from 30 candidates.
