I live in a city of approximately 1 million people according to the
Austin Chamber of Commerce. However, it seems like I live in a tangled web of about 5000 people that I constantly see at bars, clubs, restaurants, grocery stores, the gym, and even on the street. It is appealing to be in a place where everyone knows your name, but this concept lacks some charm when your pool of single men is limited to about 200 people. As most of our Love Kudos readers already know, I am a member of both
Jdate and Match in the pursuit to find one male to enhance my life. Well, lately I have found that this is becoming an increasing more difficult task due to a "dating overlap" problem.
First off, when you post your profile on a niche dating site like Catholic Singles or Jdate, you are bound to have at least "interest overlap" due to the limited local population with your religious requirements. However, are we supposed to completely eliminate this option to meet people if ultimately we would like to end up with someone from the same religion? I don't think so. Although I have taken holidays from the online dating world, I have found that when I meet people offline they are not always looking for a relationship. Often times, the number one thing we have in common is physical attraction or a specific sport. 
There are tons for tips and rules, written and unspoken, about how to behave and treat others when it comes to dating. Do this, act like that. There are so many possibilities and behaviors to take into account. Here's a quick survey of 3 top dating commandments from willing participants. Please add your own in the comment section. 
One of the most important parts of being a successful male is having a well-defined personal style. Having a clear style gives you confidence, purpose, and shows others that you stay true to yourself by allowing your outward appearance reflect your inner personality.
