If there's one thing in life that will surely make you happy then it's probably love. Loving someone, even loving something, is such a powerful feeling that you can go on with your life even if you're facing the worst kind of monsters. Knowing that you love someone/something is reason enough to live a life full of both planned and spontaneous excitement.

Of course, there are different degrees and types of love. And though others are quite skeptical with love at first sight, there are instances that suggest that it can be experienced. However for those who are not that lucky to find love at first sighting, relationships can still turn and take shape through dating.

Dating has been as old as time. The courtship, the wooing, the pleasing and the ultimate surrender in dating has been a dance that even the oldest living souls have experienced. Dating can be sugary sweet. It can also be bitterly rancid. The success of dating ultimately depends on the person you are with, the circumstances that leads you and your date to that moment, the intensity of the attraction and the right timing.

Dating can be a lot of fun too. For those who are not yet sure on what they want in life, for those who are still young enough to settle down, for those who still have dreams to fulfill on their own, even for those who are scared of serious and lasting relationships yet, dating is the name of the game. Dating is such a wonderful experience that both men and women enjoy.

The mere act of asking someone on a date, the dressing up elegantly for the other person and the giddy happiness you feel in anticipation makes dating so refreshing and charming. It's even considered as a wonderful aphrodisiac.

Even couples that are already in strong and long relationships still go on dates. It's a vital aspect to strengthen the love and the connection that you have with your partner. There are different kinds of dating. There are also a lot of ways where you can find a date. Solo dates and group dates are two of the most recognized types of dating.

Casual and formal dating are some of the kinds of dating. Online dating is also another category of dating that is getting a lot of attention these days. Although some of the most traditional people don't find online dating beneficial, there are still millions of people that are not just hooked but are truly enjoying online dating.

Whether you're into the more conventional type of dating or the now adventurous type such as online dating, what you need to bear in mind is that you are your own man/woman. You don't need to be bullied to accept a date proposal. You don't need to be harassed online.

You are allowed to be intimated but you don't need to succumb to the intimidation. You have to be aware, wise and cautious. Dating is a choice. Same goes with relationships.
