Men are from Mars, and They Hate Valentine's Day
Los Angeles, CA (ContentDesk) February 10, 2006 -- With Valentines Day once again approaching, a new independent survey by social dating website TeamDating.com polling 500 married men and 500 single men ages 25-40 years old yielded very similar results in their opinions on the holiday.
Whether married for years, or still looking for Mrs. Right, men seemed to agree that the expectations established over the years about how and what they should do have put them in a no win situation.
Some key findings of the survey conducted in Los Angeles and Orange County, were the following:Married Men Survey Results:"???91% said it was their least favorite Holiday of their marriage due to the expectations of topping what they did the previous year"???97% said that they plan what they are going to do the weekend before"???94% said that any money spent on this day is a waste of money"???72% said they plan on giving a gift certificate"???And only 4% of the men said they feel that the Holiday is even intended for menSingle Men Survey Results:"???97% said it was their least favorite Holiday of the year"???99% said to them its just another day"???86% said they will go out and try too find single girls that are out as well"???89% could not remember what they did the year before"???And a staggering 93% didnt even know that it fell on February 14th every year The overall disdain for the Holiday seems to be caused by the over expectations that women have placed on the meaning of what is done that day, or better yet, what is not done that day, explained Teamdating.com Chief Dating Officer Ray Doustdar, an expert in relationships and the online dating market.
Men feel that no matter what they do, it wont be enough.
Some try and take a creative approach with something out of the ordinary, but most fall back on the old reliable such as flowers and candy.
At the end of the day, I think the thing they are missing is that women mainly want to see that you put some effort into whatever you did.
If you are going to get flowers, get them from a different florist so they are not a carbon copy of what you gave for their birthday or another recent event , commented Doustdar.For radio and press interviews with Mr. Doustdar on or before February 14th, or any additional information, please contact Kipp Gillian at (949) 637-6401.About www.Teamdating.com:Team Dating.com is a unique and revolutionary online dating concept for consumers nationwide -- both those who currently online date and those interested in trying.

Flowers moss and salt and pepper
When I was a young apprentice oasis foam was a new idea and the traditional method of using sphagnum moss and wire fro funeral tributes was used. As a trainee part of the day was spent mossing which meant attaching the moss with twine or wire to metal frames there were the standard wreath hearts cushions and letters but you could obtain any shape you liked. In Covent garden flower market in London a very talented man would work with wires and soldering iron to create any shape requested I would watch mesmerised as aeroplanes ships and even animals would be produced nothing seemed impossible .Back at the shop the frames would be packed with moss and there trained florist would attach the flowers using stub wires.
It was also part of my duty to serve the customers one regular client was a lovely elderly Irish lady. She has always remained in my memory as she had a rather strange ritual she would choose her flowers and as we prepared to wrap them for her she would remove a small...

Networking - Relax!
Networking ? relax! ? Gill Fernley and Justin Baker, Six Degrees NetworkAnyone who has been to a networking event has met business card thruster guy. Won't leave you alone, thrust their card in your face, every attempt at conversation gets quickly turned into a sales pitch. These people aren't networking, they're selling. Badly. Let me share with you some of my thoughts on what puts the ?work' in networking.
Networking is a form of marketing, and any form of marketing is most effective when you don't come straight out and say "buy this!" The best marketing techniques work on building relationships ? courting trust, showing your intentions to be honourable in what you are offering. And there are certain market characteristics too:
- People buy people.

- People don't like being sold to.
They are interested...
