EARLY REVIEWS
Recommended by: Midwest Book Review Bookwatch,Micah Andrew:
"The urge to find a mate is deeply rooted into human biology. But there's more to the selection process than simple lust or ticking biological reproduction clocks. The finding of just the right partner to go through life with is often more than just a one time task, but can be a necessity imposed by divorce or the death of a spouse. There are a wealth of 'how to' and 'what to do' books available to women seeking dating advice. What makes "Finding The Right Man For You: Dating Advice for Women" stand apart from the crowd is that its author, Lawrence J. Danks, offers a male perspective as he gives a wealth of insightful, practical, and useful advice on dating. Especially when the dating process is complicated by children, work, and health issues. Of special note is Danks' counsel on how to detect and avoid men who misrepresent themselves. Enhanced and illustrated with anecdotal stories and inspired quotations, informed and informative, and thoroughly 'user friendly', "Finding The Right Man For You: Dating Advice for Women" is a very highly recommended reading for women of all ages and situations who are seeking to find just the right man for them!"

Recommended by: Elaine Fuhr, Allbooks Review:
"Larry Danks, a sixty-four year old business administration professor, has experienced a second marriage, and through that experience, has developed considerable insight into the dating scene. And along with the contributions of over a dozen female advisors, he understands more now, about how women try to find the right man. He also realizes that for some women, there is no need to find that partner; living alone is a fine choice. But for those who feel alone and want to have the companionship that a relationship will give, he has written a sensitive book that is meant to help women do just that. He uses quotations from various authors and specialists throughout his book, to support the ideas that he puts forward. Within each chapter are many subtopics that are specific to the chapter and give detailed information and advice. The book is an easy read and very personable. It seems that the reader is simply sitting and chatting with this man over a hot cup of coffee.

As I read through the pages, I realized that while this book is aimed at a female audience, there is a great deal of very good advice for anyone, male or female. Topics include Evaluating Your Situation, Life After the Death of a Partner and Online Dating Sites; information useful to everyone looking for a partner, especially after experiencing past relationships. And who couldn’t use a little advice on Defeating Hurt and Anger?

This book truly has information for everyone. So pick up Finding the Right Man For You, drift through the well- written pages and take note of the insightful advice given there. It is a book worth reading.


Gordon Livingston, MD - Psychiatrist and Best Selling Author of How To Love and Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart:
"Larry Danks has distilled much wisdom about the joys and hazards of finding the right partner. Women everywhere will benefit from his advice in their search for love. Drawing on his own experience and the thoughts of others, Larry has created a reassuring guide replete with great suggestions for navigating the paths to the relationships we all seek."


I was honored to have WomensBookReviews.com present "Finding the Right Man For You" as a featured book for women in June and July 2010. It is a fine site with books in many areas of interest for women.

Love May Be Closer Than You Think

The wait and the search can be very discouraging. Sometimes women just give up. I encourage you not to. That's why I developed this website. Do you remember in "The Wizard of Oz", how The Wizard gave the lion courage? Well, I am here to give hope. Success might be around corner. Since you can't know which corner it is, you should just keep putting one foot in front of the other and stay at it until find what you want.

Paula Peisner Coxe in her excellent book "Finding Peace: Letting Go and Liking It" offers some too with this powerful quote:

"There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow."
-O.S.Marden

You can have a better tomorrow. Many women who are lonely have just given up too soon trying to find a partner, haven't done the things that are necessary, or haven't looked in the right places. The man you're hoping for could be within five blocks, three towns away, in another state or in another country. You might meet him in a few days or it might take months. It shouldn't take years.

Do not worry about before. What's done is done. Focus on the present. It will make your future. I opened a fortune cookie a few months ago, when some things weren't going too well on a number of fronts. The little paper inside counseled: "Time and patience are called for. Many surprises await you".

You may be suffering from hurt due to the end of a relationship. You think you'll never recover. You can. Whether you will or not is up to you. The best solution to recovering is to find someone else who's interesting and caring. Starting to live in the present again will go a long way toward helping the obsession with the past to stop. You'll start thinking the right way again -- what is to be gained, rather than focusing on things that aren't there anymore.

Moving Forward To Find Love and Romance
Don't waste the remaining valuable days of your life. Things can get a lot better, and maybe even more beautiful and wonderful than you ever imagined. I would highly recommend a little book to you that is very easy to read:
"How To Be Happy,Dammit"
A cynic's guide to spiritual happiness
by Karen Salmansohn
Ms. Salmansohn is a friend to all when she provides the pithy advice which can truly help us get unstuck, particularly I think to women who desire love and romance in their lives, but don't do what is necessary to get it:
- She begins by reminding how we needed a whack to get us going at birth, because it was necessary for our growth. Not only when we were born, but many times after that. Have you taken some whacks? She says that ultimately they are what provides for our growth. Certainly these whacks can include romantic ones, but if we look at them as things that will ultimately improve our lives, it can give us the impetus to move forward with hope.

She says,"Happiness is not about what happens to you, but how you choose to respond to what happens." Response means taking positive action, not just hoping for the best.

She notes further that, "Some plants are only meant to last for a certain season or for a certain time. If you try to make them live longer, you will be a bad gardener." Recognizing that perhaps a relationship was good while it lasted, or that the time had come for it to end, can help propel us forward to where we should be.

One of the things that can stop us from moving forward to find a loving relationship is fear. As Ms.Salmansohn indicates, "All too often fear stops you from going where you need to go", and where things can be a whole lot better. She provides a memorable story of a "Dope on a Rope", a criminal brought before a king for punishment. The king allows the criminal to select his demise by hanging or to face what is behind a large,forboding steel door. The man chooses hanging. As the rope is put around his neck, he asks the king, "What was behind the door?" The king said that almost all the prisoners chose the rope, rather than facing the fear of the unknown. The king told him that freedom laid on the other side of the door.It takes courage to change things for the better. "If you keep doing what you've always been doing, you'll keep getting what you've always been getting. If you're lonely, the longer you keep doing what you're doing, then you'll keep getting what you've always been getting...You are a prisoner of your past and it'll stay that way until you do something to change it...What you seize is what you get." Stop doing what's not working, and fearing to try things that "aren't you". Reach out for the life you deserve and try something different. Hopefully this site, and the other resources mentioned here, can help you.

Where there's life, there's hope. See the movie "Under the Tuscan Sun". It's is a lovely film and it is very hopeful. Just the way you should be. Ditto for "Something's Gotta Give" with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton. It's funny, but touching at the same time. It's never too late. It's never over until it's over. Give yourself a lift and hope and see both of them.

Sometimes things work out much differently than we could ever have imagined. That certainly has been the case for me. It will probably be for you too. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other and keep reading through the site. It was created to help you.

Note: Text Ads and Links To Other Sites
Periodically you will see text ads or banners, most of which are relevant to women seeking male partners. Some may not be however, due to the revolving nature of network advertisers using the assigned space. Removing some ads that are targeted to men however, could make the entire site completely invisible permanently to women, who might also benefit from other ads from the same advertiser. I remove any I find offensive to women, as soon as I see them.

On occasion, clicking a link to another site,may have some site titles or banner ads that you might find offensive. However,ending the link would eliminate links to many other worthwhile sites.

Please be assured that no link would ever be put up that would be smarmy on its face. It is my purpose that this site only be helpful to women and that it always be respectful of them. Dating Advice for Women is also intended as a heterosexual dating site, so ads for gay dating will also be removed. No judgments intended, but that's not the focus of this site.

Are You Stuck Just Hoping For The Right Man?
Some women would rather not change themselves, or their techniques, or lack of them, and remain lonely and unhappy, than do what needs to be done to get results. No woman who is lonely needs to stay that way, but changes might have to be made, and change can be uncomfortable. The question is, is some temporary discomfort worth getting rid of being lonely? Surgery isn't comfortable, but if it's done properly, we get better. Same principle. If there isn't any change, you are always going to get what you've got. Proper actions produce desired results. Hopefully this site will give you some help in this regard.

Another source of being stuck is not being able to forget "him". Some women waste months and years hoping for something that is probably never going to happen. He has probably moved on and you may be the one who is still stuck. The best way to forget somebody is to find somebody else. But if someone refuses to do that, they just stay stuck - and get nothing in return, except more pain and loneliness. Only you can break the cycle,by going out on dates again. I encourage you to do it without any more delay. Your life is very valuable. All of us only get so much time. If you've wasted a lot of it already,please don't waste any more of it. Get started on dating again and on living a real and happy life again.

Please read the sections on the page "The Right Man". It will help you to recognize him when you see him. It's going to be ok. Just keep moving ahead one step at a time.

What Men and Women Need
In 40 Unforgettable Dates, by Dr. Gary and Barbara Rosberg,lists the top five needs of husbands and wives. It's probably a good starting point to know how men and women are different in their love needs so that each can better respond to the needs of the other. If you are looking for a man to share your life with, you might want to keep the factors important to husbands in mind:
1. Unconditional Love and Acceptance
2. Sexual Intimacy
3. Companionship
4. Encouragement and Affirmation
5. Spiritual Intimacy

A wife's top five love needs are:
1. Unconditional Love and Acceptance
2. Emotional Intimacy and Communication
3. Spiritual Intimacy
4. Encouragement and Affirmation
5. Companionship

In order for a marriage or relationship to work then, it seems as if men need to pay more attention to a woman's emotional needs (big surprise) and women need to pay more attention to the sexual intimacy part. The crux of it is not only to pay attention to these things, but to continue to do so, throughout the relationship, to keep it alive.

Getting Closer To Love
John Malloy, the well known author of the Dress For Success books,offers guidelines for marrying a man based on six truths found in his book Why Men Marry Some Women and Not Others (Warner Books). Whether your goal is to marry, or to have a loving relationship, these points are worthwhile considering. He says if you wish to marry:

1. You must insist on it
2. If you find yourself in a dead end relationship, move on
3. Love yourself first
4. Commit yourself to the idea of getting married
5. Keep in shape, watch your weight and take care of your appearance. He says women who are slender have an easier time meeting men and better odds of getting married. (Our page on "Dating Tips" has further thoughts and suggestions on weight and weight control.)
6. Time can be your worst enemy. Use it wisely in your search for that marrying man (or I would also say for the man you want to have a permenent loving relationship with.)

Please continue on to our following pages which discuss the importance of having the right attitude to find love, dating tips to help you and many other helpful topics.

Propel Your Boat. No Wake!
Dr. Wayne Dyer, the well known motivational writer notes in his book "10 Secrets for Success and Inner Peace"(Hay House) that boats are not propelled by their wake(the stream of water that runs behind the boat), but by its forward motion. Don't worry about what's happened before, just keep moving ahead through our site and in your life. Happiness can be their for you too, but you have to propel yourself toward it, as surely as a boat's propeller moves it forward to where its going. I care about you and your happiness. Care enough about it yourself, so you can find the happiness you want and are entitled to.

Handling Stress When Dating or Waiting
It can be stressful when dating or waiting to find the right man in your life. You'll make yourself happier in the interim, and also make yourself a more relaxed companion, if you can address some of your stress. An excellent little book on this topic is Undress Your Stress by Lois Levy. Ms. Levy provides a wide variety of entertaining and helpful thoughts. Check out her helpful book and remember some of the basic suggestions she offers:
Laugh,Meditate,Breathe Well,Write,Take A Bath,Groan,Scream, Sing,Cry,Exercise,Dance,Talk With Yourself,Talk To Someone Else, Pray,Waste Time,Go Outside,Go Home,Get Enough Sleep,Take A Nap
Make a list of these suggestions. When you're stressed, pick one off the list and do it. Getting stressed is only going to make you feel worse and will put you farther from your goal. Smile too! Let your inner beauty shine through. The women I have cared about in my life are beautiful from the inside out and it makes the outside look all the more beautiful :)
