It must be stressed that there are fine examples out there that prove May-December relationships are just as normal as the ones between younger men. Relationships with an older partner can be fulfilling and even more nourishing than those between two younger men or two older men.

But there's a lot more to dating than personal tastes, we live in a peculiar era, there have been smart asses all through the ages! You must be careful when you are dating anyone, some of the following tips deal with intergenerational dating but others are very important safety precautions you must follow especially if you are dating anyone over the internet.

So you want to be in love huh?

Everyone wants a meaningful, fulfilling, ever-lasting and loving relationship. My advice? Get a dog!

Seriously, everybody wants love. The dilemma is that few people are willing to change their little ways in order to stay on the road to love. We all know what we want in a relationship. We struggle to find Mr. Right, saying to ourselves: "If he loves me, he'll accept me the way I am." Well, wake up Dorothy! Life is not that simple.

A keyword to a meaningful and long lasting relationship is RESPECT. If you don't respect your partner and your relationship, you may as well stay single and enjoy your bachelorhood. This might sound like a cliché, but relationships are like buildings: They need strong foundations or when the wind blows, everything will collapse.

There are many forms of respect, from being loyal and loving to lifting the toilet seat when you pee — if not doing so is one of those things that upset your partner. No one is perfect and there's no such thing as a perfect relationship. We all have to work to make things work. If the following lists show any similarity with your own life, it is probably more than coincidence.
