Has this ever happened to you? You meet a new guy for coffee and have a great first date. The week goes by. He texts once or twice, but does not ask about the weekend. Then, he finally calls you, on Friday, to talk about the weekend. "Are you free tonight?" he asks. Well, you purposely left the weekend open hoping he would call. So you say, "Yes". You go out and have another great date. Then, you don't hear from him all week, except for some texting. This time, you can't take it. You want to know what is going to happen for the weekend. You can't stand this waiting game.
So, what do wild parrots and dating have to do with one another? I am going to tell you. But first, in case you’re not from around here, it is useful to know that all over California there are flocks of wild parrots. They’re not native to the area, so dozens or even hundreds of birds must have either escaped or were released into the wild. When you live here, every once in awhile, you will stop and say, “Look! There go the wild parrots!”
I wrote this profile for a client about a year ago. What’s interesting is that I really loved it but she didn’t use it. I don’t know for certain why, but I think it described her to a tee and it might have felt too revealing for her at the time.

Ah, online dating. Some people love it. Some people hate it. I'm in the former category, and I always tell skeptics, if you meet the love of your life online, you won't care how the heck you met — you'll just be thrilled that you did!
Are you really ready to make room for love in your life? Many single men and women say they desire love and romance, yet secretly they harbor fears of how a relationship may alter their comfortable routines. It is this fear of change that sabotages many budding relationships, as you think to yourself -- I love my life the way it is. Why change it? Are you so cozy in your life that you won't make room for love? Do you think that a potential love match will expect you to change to fit into their lifestyle?
If your potential romances seem to fizzle out without an apparent reason, you may be stuck in dead-end dating habits without knowing it. Find out how one dating coach used her Harvard Business School savvy to develop a bold dating strategy that could transform your dead-end dating habits. What is this bold dating strategy? Bestselling author and Harvard MBA, Rachel Greenwald, recommended that you do a dating exit interview of your ex-dates to get feedback on what went wrong or right so that you can improve your interactions with future dates.
In online dating, making a good first impression is key. People can easily pass over your profile with the blink of an eye if they don't immediately see something they like.
