Why Flirting Makes Men Feel Good

Researchers in London recently conducted an experiment to see if men experienced the boost observed in animals known as "mating response".

They put a third of 149 male students aged between 18 and 24 in a room to talk to a 25-year-old male researcher, while the rest spoke to one of seven female students aged 18 to 22.

The men who'd talked to a woman showed, on average, a 14 percent increase in their testosterone levels, while their cortisol levels were up 48 percent. These are the hormones that are associated with alertness and wellbeing.

Internet Dating Workshop - Gloucester 17 october

The internet has always been a good way to meet new people, and many users have gone on to get married. These days it’s become even more important because it’s a lot cheaper than going out to bars or on dinner-dating events.

This Internet Dating Workshop is hands-on and takes place in a specialist IT training room. We limit the number to ten, so everyone has their own computer and and internet access. You will learn how to:

• develop your own tempting and engaging profile;
• carry out internet searches for ideal matches by location, interests, age, work, etc. And preferred combinations;
• keep your profile at the top of the search lists for your ideal partner;
• develop the right strategies for success – when to wink, what to write in emails, how to chat, etc;
• protect yourself when you ask for a date;
• get the best from the first, second and third date.

A professional photographer from Gold Seal Photography will also be there on the day. And you might want them to take a portrait photograph of you that’s ready to load on to any dating site.

The workshop will be presented by Bryony Anne, Results Dating Coach. Bryony hosts Speed Dating, Singles Wine Tasting and Singles Dinner Dates at selected venues in Southern England and has her own weekly local radio show on Stroud FM.

The workshop starts at 9.45 am for a 10.00 kick-off and finishes at 12 noon. We will email you details of the venue and joining instructions when you book.
