Football Crazy

As the majority of England brace themselves for this Saturday's match, how many single loney people are there out there, just wishing it would all go away and that life could get back to normal?
Personally I love football, particularly when England play and win! However I know many other people who don't have the same interest and to be on your own at this time of year, seems even more difficult. The WAGS are ok, as although they may be on their own for many long hours, whilst their partners are practising, they do eventually meet up. For those in our society who are without that special person in their life, the days can seem extra long and lonely during this 'silly season'. Many resort to internet dating to desperately try to meet someone meaningful but the disastrous stories which emanate every day really do make you realise that this way of trying to find your match is prone to complications. Why not try the safe, tested and successful way to meet that special new person in your life by contact Tempting Fate.

Internet Dating Cheats

In the press recently there was an article on how a John Prescott lookalike swindled £10,000 out of two unsuspecting women he'd befriended via internet dating. Evidently these poor females believed that he was rich and famous - like his make-believe brother - and they were tempted to give him money. A lesson to anyone who's dabbling on these sites is to always make sure you really get to know someone via emails and phone calls and always, always get their home phone number to make sure they're not married first. The horror stories go on and on about this way of meeting people and I hear them all the time when I'm interviewing prospective members. Quality people that want a higher standard of introduction should only ever use a respectable Personal Introduction Service such as ours. Tempting Fate has many members throughout Cambridge, Suffolk, Norfolk and Peterborough who have found that special person. We ask for a copy of a Passport or Driving Licence and a copy of a utility bill which all prove who the person really is - so better to be safe than sorry!

Radio Love

Exciting news - I've just been asked by BBC3 Counties Radio to go over to their Studios in Luton to be on their show discussing relationships and dating issues. Tempting Fate has their head office in Cambridge but members come from across East Anglia and the Counties Radio reaches areas that we cover. They particularly want to talk about love the second time around for the over 50's. This is a hot topic at the moment what with the population reaching almost two thirds to 45's and over soon. Some interesting statistics emanate from the Association of British Introduction Agencies, in that the ratio of males to females in this age group is 6 women to every man, that currently come forward as singles looking for someone. Lucky men who seem to have a wide choice at the moment. However I truly believe that if you do keep yourself looking, feeling and being young everyone will find that special person in their life.

I'm told so many times by people I interview that they just don't feel their age. If you look back to when your parents were in their 50's I expect you'll realise that people nowadays just don't look their age any longer. Some prime role models of this are Jane Fonda, Felicity Kendall and Twiggy. All these women are 5o's to 60's and look fantastic.

Another Radio Station that has contacted me is the West Suffolk Hospital Radio based in Bury St Edmunds. This is the number one radio station for those people who unfortunately have to spend some time there. The programmes are very varied and interesting with lots of special requests being played. I've again been asked to talk about dating issues and personal relationships. I expect when youre lying in your hospital bed you can go over and over again in your mind the relationship youre in or not, as the case may be! I'll be answering some questions from patients on some of their problems and giving them some tips for improving their love life.

I really enjoy radio and would love to try doing more in their area. More of that later.....
