Q&A FORUM:
Questions From Other Singles Like You
Wondering about Speed Dating events or how Pre-Dating does them? Maybe just a relationship question in general? Some other people did as well and here are their questions to us.
If you have a question, simply email us at Questions@Pre-Dating.com and if selected for our next Newsletter you'll get a complimentary ticket to one of our events.
QUESTION #1:
Hi Pre-Dating,
My number one concern about dating, whether it be online, or at a face-to-face event, such as speed dating, is my fear of who I will meet. How can I know that I am safe?
Answer from Pre-Dating
Dear ""Fearful", ,
First and foremost, I would recommend that you look into why you are fearful. Most people are fearful from what they hear on the news. When was the last time you turned on the news, and saw a HAPPY story, though? American media tends to only show the negative, and not the positive.
That being said, if you are interested in only dating people where back-ground checks are performed, you will not find that in any service less then a few hundred dollars a month. The reason being is it is expensive to do background checks. The only real service that will do this is a reputable and private matchmaker. If go through such a service, it is important to do your research on the matchmaker and look at reviews, testimonials, etc. This way you are sure you are spending your money wisely.
Furthermore, if you do not have the money to hire a matchmaker in your area, speed dating or other local singles mixers are a great alternative, as you are not required to divulge a lot of information. In fact, we recommend that you don't, until you get to know the person a bit better. Sure- you can say what you do for a living, but you don't want to say something along the lines of"I work at ABC Pharmacy on 123 Main St.". You want to leave an event with the same amount of anonymity as you walked in with, and if you are interested in someone, see where it goes, and only meet that person in a public setting.
Remember- the chances of meeting someone who has a checkered history is slim, 99% of singles out there are quality singles who are just looking to settledown with a great companion. It's only that 1% that you hear about on the news.
QUESTION #2:
Dear Pre-Dating,
I am curious to know what I should wear when I go out to social mixers. I tend to get people who are more interested in "hooking up" rather then taking me seriously in the relationship aspect in my cocktail outfits, however, when I dress more 'refined' I don't get hit on at all. I am baffled!
Answer from Pre-Dating
Dear "Problemista Fashionista":
This is probably one of our most asked questions when it comes to attending our events (what to wear)! The answer is simple, you want to wear something that is not as intimidating as a 'business suit', but also not something that screams 'easy' like a 'Little Black Dress'.
Sure- skin is great, but the old rule of thumb 'If you got it, flaunt it', doesn't necessarily work to your advantage for either extreme. Many singles choose their outfits for what is going to garner the most attention from the crowd they want to appeal to. For example- if you are going for attention, you may show off some more skin (this goes for men too), however, if you are looking for a more sophisticated look, you may lean towards a suit- which tends to give off an 'I'm better then you' appearance.
So, for the answer- for Women- A nice blouse complimented by a pair of nice jeans and shoes tends to work well in a social mixer, as you are not showing off too much skin, but at the same time, these choices can compliment the assets you want to accent!
For Men- the best choice is a nice pair of jeans, matched with a button down shirt (that is buttoned appropriately and tucked in) and a nice pair of shoes- not sneakers. Accessories are great for both genders, but always follow the rule of "less is more" in this area, as too much can take away from your overall look.
By utilizing the above, you are giving off a business casual look, which makes you approachable while not giving off that 'easy' vibe.

Roy's Relationship Corner
"What Kind of Partner Are You?"
Part 2: Are You Monogamous?
Are you ready for a real relationship? Though we all want to be in a great relationship, most of us haven't thought about or devoted ourselves to a set of commitments or behaviors that form the foundation for authentic intimacy.
In my relationship coaching practice, I often work with my single clients on 10 different commitments that make them the kind of partner the opposite sex dreams of being with.
We have been discussing these 10 commitments in recent newsletters. (If you want past issues, please email me at roy@coachingwithroy.com and I'll send the entire series to you.)
Last month we focused on the commitment called Transparency. Here we talk about sexual fidelity and monogamy. It's my hope that you'll deeply consider each of these commitments and say to yourself, "This is the way I am going to function in my life."
Commitment #2: Sexual Fidelity
"I commit to seeking my sexual fulfillment within the confines of my relationship. I also commit to openly share with my partner any temptations, attractions or flirtations I experience."
I'm guessing you felt good about the first sentence, but the second one might have left you feeling a bit queasy. We have a lot of fears when it comes to sex and our sexuality.
But let's back up a minute. It should be noted that not all couples desire monogamy. People do have "open" relationships and that's fine if it's what they want. But for the vast majority, monogamy is what best serves the relationship.
Having said that, let's be honest, shall we? We are sexual beings. All of us encounter people we're attracted to, tempted by and sometimes even flirt with. While we want exclusivity—we know it's best for our souls and everyone else involved—fidelity is not always easy, because being in a great relationship doesn't change our sexual nature.
So what this commitment is really about is being transparent (commitment #1) about our sexuality. This can be scary—and even risky. But in a healthy relationship, people share their sexual truth, no matter the risk. Being open about these things usually leads to greater self-awareness and deepening intimacy.
This commitment is challenging, and it often creates a lot of questions. So if you want to discuss how to apply this commitment to your particular life situation, please reach out to me and take advantage of the FREE 30-minute coaching session I offer to anyone who wants to explore this or any issue that might be keeping them from attract lasting love. You can reach me at roy@coachingwithroy.com and be sure to visit my website at www.coachingwithroy.com.

Featured Testimonial
"Hi Mike,
I think you have my email from when I participated in a speed dating event back in 2013. Funny thing is… I married one of the people I met there that night. Last month marked our 6 month anniversary.
Thank you for reaching out to me, but needless to say, I am no longer in the dating scene. :)
Thanks,
Kelly"
