…well, kind of. You can’t really touch sexy women on paper but rather… feel them up? I wonder if Playboy for the blind describes the sexy women’s curves or if blind readers really do buy it just for the articles.

Kissing is something guys usually like to practice on a pretty girl, but if you can’t find one who’s willing and able, you could try this kissing exercise first.

Alright, so you don’t actually learn kissing techniques in this Mentos kissing game, but kissing a lot and in the right places is essential, all the while dodging kisses from your “opponents” (uh, why would you want to dodge kissing pretty girls?). So you’re probably better off practicing kissing on flesh-and-blood “opponents”, but the game is well-designed and entertaining enough to keep your mind occupied until you find a pretty girl for kissing practice.

True love can strike at any age - sounds perfectly logical. Whether your first romance is the love of your life or if you fall in love again later in life – feelings don’t care about numbers.

On the other hand, love at any age might mean sex at any age, and society finds that difficult to handle. This touching report about love and sex in old age homes narrates the true story of a couple who not only rediscovered true love, but also their sexuality, at a very late stage in life.

On the one hand, it’s a tragic romance, because the lovers are separated. On the other hand, it’s a beautiful testament to love and its power to knock you off your feet, no matter how old you are – it can make an 82- and a 95-year-old as happy as a couple of teenagers.

Deciding on your perfect match is not always easy. Especially when you’re online dating you often feel like there’s more than one good match. It’s tempting to keep those options open, for fear of making the wrong decision. A Massachusets Instituts of Technology study has shown that this type of behaviour is not only typical of online dating – it’s also exhibited by people making decisions in an abstract computer game.

Each player had the possibility to earn money by clicking on the right doors. They could click the doors as they wished, but the clicks were limited to 100, so a quick decision paid off. Still, players kept returning to less profitable doors for fear of losing that option.

That sounds very abstract, but the initiator of the study draws the parallel to relationships. It makes sense to decide on a partner once you have found a great match. Instead of keeping your options open, you should then close all other doors. This makes you more satisfied with your choice and helps you move on to new decisions.

So, if you think you might have found your perfect match through online dating, make your decision and close those other doors!

Jewellery is a typical gift in relationships – from cheap charm bracelets to diamond engagement rings, jewellery is traditionally a gift of love. But while you could dump the charm bracelet in a shoebox when your first love dumped you, it’s a lot harder to deal with more valuable gifts. Most people don’t want to wear gems that remind them of a failed relationship. On the other hand, it’s a shame to let them gather dust at the back of jewellery box and flushing them down the toilet doesn’t seem like the best idea once the initial anger has evaporated. Then what to do eith expensive, unloved tokens of love?

You could sell jewellery from a failed relationship on a new website, which specialises in jewellery from ex-lovers. Each piece gives you the article description, the price and the back story of the failed relationship. This gives the sellers the possibility to not only rid themselves of these reminders of love gone wrong, but also to get closure on the failed relationship.

Inseparable couples can be many things – annoying or sweet, codependent or happy. Some envy inseparable couples, others can’t imagine anything worse than spending all day, every day whith their partner. After reading an article about a couple that is literally inseparable, never further than 15 feet apart, two journalists gave it a try: Could they live an entire day as a truly inseparable couple?

The happily married couple spent the whole day together, never straying more than 15 feet from their partner. The experiment revealed a lot about themselves, their partner and them as a couple – in both positive and negative ways. The day is narrated from their alternating perspectives, which makes for a fascinating read.

While the man realises that he has never witnessed his wife’s daily beauty ritual, the woman enjoys a shared breakfast. They both hate sharing the newspaper. By accompanying each other to the office, they get to see each other work, but they have less to talk about in the evening. After all, an inseparable couple has spent the day together, so there’s little to tell. The couple comes to the conclusion that it was an interesting experiment, but they definitely don’t want to spend another day as inseparable couple!

“Meat is Murder” – can anyone who shares the Smiths’ opinion on that subject have a successful relationship with a carnivore? The short, simple answer is OF COURSE! I’m a vegetarian, but I’ve always managed to live with meat lovers and to have relationships with them. Unless there’s raw meat dripping on my tofu in the fridge, I don’t see why differen dietary choices should endanger a relationship. However, there obviously are people who believe that relationships between vegetarians and carnivores can’t work out.

So again it’s the people who jeopardise their chances of finding love by being extremely picky. First it was literature snobs who dumped a partner for reading the wrong books. Now it’s foodies who can’t handle their partner eating differently.

Of course shared meals are an important part of a relationship and most people enjoy cooking and eating with their partner. After all, the way to a foodie’s heart is through their stomach. But surely there’s ways to compromise. Come on, people – cook the meat and the side veg separately! Experiment with vegetarian dishes that you both enjoy! A person that refuses to eat a meal without meat is as stubborn and intolerant as a vegetarian who refuses, on moral grounds, to kiss someone who has eaten meat (both mentioned in the article).

By the way: be2 lets you declare whether you’re vegetarian in your profile. But it’s not a criterion that excludes potential partners

Can books prevent relationships? The american blogosphere has been discussing that question, since an article in the New York Times declared the topic of relevance to relationships.

The article observes that some people end a relationship as soon as they discover their suitor has a bad taste in literature.

Obviously taste can be a good indicator of compatibility (that goes for literature, as well as film, music, art…) A shared favourite novel can get a relationship off to a good start, and it’s important for an avid reader to find a suitor who also enjoys reading.

But does that really justify the arrogance of declaring readers of certain books unsuiable for a relationship? (more…)

Did you ever spend hours in front of your stereo trying to create the perfect mixtape for a pretty girl? Remeber how much work that was? But remember how you could win that pretty girl’s heart with a good mixtape and then it was totally worth it after all?

Well, now you can start conquering women’s hearts with mixtapes again, although this time around it’s a lot less work and, of course, digital. An Online-Mixtape is easy to compile and send to a pretty girl.

The advantage (aside from the fact that it can be done without pressing REC, FF, REW and PLAY countless times): You can send it to someone you’ve met online and impress the hell out of her with your superior taste in music.
