		<description><![CDATA[Confusing, man-eating, delicate flowers... yes, I know. Navigating the world of women when you are firmly in the Y chromosome category pose challenges that test the courage of many a man-child. Some men are lucky/smart enough to get a gal pal or two to decode the mysteries. Some men cannily do the research... things like reading good blogs on dating and mating in America or even getting a dating coach. But some poor sods continue to mope over a beer with the guys and bewail recent blunders, innocent mistakes and in short, continuing to make the same mistake again and again. Attracting the crazies.

I decided to crack the door on Pandora's Box here and give you some tips that may or may not help you navigate away from the man-eating crazy flowers and find a woman who makes your toes curl. In a good way. <a href="http://datingandmatinginamerica.com/2011/01/12/crazy_women/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=datingandmatinginamerica.com&#038;blog=4053810&#038;post=945&#038;subd=klawless&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Safety -- a huge concern for the modern dater. After all, Google just can't substitute for a community that knew your date when exiting the womb. Its hard to check on whether or not a guy is who he says he is and we've all heard the stories of men with families or girlfriends in every city, the date rapist from the internet or the perv caught looking in his date's window after dropping her at home earlier that evening. There are a ton of articles out there for the girls to read about how to be safe, but this post is really directed more towards the guys trying to understand it all.

When you are a trustworthy guy, it can be incredibly frustrating to have a new date shy away from letting you pick her up or agree to going over to your house ... I mean, YOU know nothing is going to happen... but she doesn't. <a href="http://datingandmatinginamerica.com/2009/04/28/dating_safety/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=datingandmatinginamerica.com&#038;blog=4053810&#038;post=975&#038;subd=klawless&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Due to the nature of this blog, I certainly get some interesting questions that often spur me to write about a topic I'd never considered or make me think about an issue from a different framework entirely. But recently, I've had several friends and readers ask one way or another how to make sure they are investing time in a quality person.

So, I've decided that my readers would be the perfect way to answer this question: 

Hey Kelli, I need a list of good questions/conversation items to ask/have so I can make sure I'm getting the *right* questions answered.  Tips??

It's a good question really. So, what are the most important things that you absolutely must find out in the first month of dating before you decide whether or not your new relationship has staying power? Do you ask questions? Do you wait for actions to reveal your date? Something else? I've heard some of you discuss some pretty canny ways to suss out your date and I'd love for you to share.

I'll do a follow up article after I've gotten the comments, emails, Facebook comments, etc and talk about what the most important issues seem to be for all of you and some good ways to go about finding out the answers you need to know.
