XXX Social Network

Welcome to the November 6, 2009 edition of the dating blog carnival. There were more submissions than I knew what to do with – and with room for only a few, that posed a bit of a problem. Still, that means there’s demand once again to get this carnival off the ground. So without further fanfare, here are my favorite picks this time around.

Danny Dagan over at That Danny shares an interesting dating advice piece called Dear Danny – What to do with an Internet Stalker?. One of his readers, a 27-year-old woman, asks Danny what to do about her ex who contacted her on Facebook. I was thrilled to see that Danny, like myself, doesn’t see attempts at random chat on Facebook as stalking.

Tip Diva suggests in her article Top Ten Tips – Meeting Someone Offline that, among other things, singles should either Google their date or hire a firm to perform a background check on them before meeting face to face. While I think that particular suggestion is terribly extreme (and don’t recommend it), her other suggestions are simple but work.

Ah,

Madeleine Begun Kane is back again with her irreverent dating-related poetry. My Confession is her contribution this week, which was originally posted at Mad Kane’s Humor Blog.

Staying with the humor theme, P.L. Frederick shares You Know The Date’s Over When… (Part 1) posted at Small and Big. A short, sweet and tongue in cheek list for those who need a giggle.

bookfundas shares a quick dating book review of Allan Pease’s provocative Why Men Don’t Listen and Women Can’t Read Maps.

Rachel Sarah, aka Single Mom Seeking over at Singlemommyhood.com wants to know Why do single moms date married men? Its another provocative topic, and I’ve asked myself the same question a few times as well. Rachel has decided to review the reasons, and her readers go into great detail as to why they agree or disagree.

Shauna Heathman, an Image Consultant posting over at Mackenzie’s Blog rounds out this week’s top picks with You’ve Let Yourself Go ? A relationship guru offers insight. Focusing on why men (although the conversation works just as well for women) decide they no longer need to take care of themselves once they get comfy in a long term relationship.

That concludes this edition. To submit your blog article to the next edition of dating using our carnival submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.
