Hello all I only made two new Year’s resolutions this year and they are to help everyone I can to find a partner and to answer more of your questions about relationships.

In both of these endeavours I am going to need your help, the first resolution to find you a partner will require your help and the second requires your questions, so let’s get started and make 2010 the “Year of the Successful Relationship.”

First I would like to say that I hope that you are not going to be alone this Holiday Season, there is not much worse than tat, and I promise you I know, I have been there and although it was a long while ago now I still remember the loneliness, the talking to yourself and the wondering whether you should bother to cook for one.

Honestly I promise that together you and I ad of course www.easilyfriends.com will do something positive about you being alone soon, that is of course if you have joined up to www.easilyfriends.com it is free and easy to use and will never charge you anything.

It is the fact that www.easilyfriends.com is free that I like it they want to help you and not help themselves to your hard earned cash.

So we are nearly into another year and after the fireworks have faded and the parties finished you will have a whole new year to focus on and we are going to find you a partner and turn your friendship into a relationship.

A lot of people have recently written to me asking the where I think the best place to meet a new friend would be and I have to say now after all of the information that has been passed to me from the people at www.easilyfriends.com I have to say that the internet is probably taking over as the place to meet people of both genders.

Obviously you have to be careful who you talk to but meeting someone on the internet is like meeting someone on a train or in a bar, what do you really know about them? Not much is the answer. Ok you’ll say at least in a bar or on a train you will be able to see the person you are talking to but have you heard of skype and webcams yet?

Webcams are very handy and you can use them to have a face to face conversation with anyone anywhere and of course skype is like www.easilyfriends.com free to use which is great.

So I would like to suggest that if you are at a loose end this Christmas and New Year that you get yourself online, treat yourself to a webcam and a free copy of skype and get chatting to people.

And of course unless the person is in an internet café then you will be able to get to know more about him or her just by listening to the surrounding noise if there are children ask if they belong to the person you are talking to, if there is anything sinister or odd about the room the person is talking to you from then they might be the same and you will get to know much sooner than if you met this person in the street, in a bar or on a train.

Use technology to get a date and when you are on the date use the same safeguards you always use a lot of people are doing that these days.

Happy Christmas to all my readers.

Abigail

For most of this year the good people at www.easilyfriends.com have been looking very closely at the way in which their members have been using their web site and dating trends in general together with the way that people use www.easilyfriends.com and the internet in general to find friends and partners.

Now the people at www.easilyfriends.com have started to use that information to improve their already excellent web site and offer some of the non-confidential research to members and of course readers of my blog.

My last blog covered the interesting fact that a large number of people around 50% log on to web sites such as www.easilyfriends.com specifically to find love, an encouraging fact if you are looking for someone to love yourself and probably the best reason to join www.easilyfriends.com which of course unlike other web sites doesn’t ask you to pay for the privilege.

As part of our research we looked at the demographic of our website and discovered that although just over 50% of our members are men 53% to be precise the number of female members has significantly increased during 2009 and the trend continues.

This of course means that as we enter 2010 and the increase in the number of woman joining www.easilyfriends.com rises they may well soon out number men and that will I am pretty confident make using www.easilyfriends.com a lot nicer for women and men alike.

All of which means whether you are male or female you are going to really enjoy visiting www.easilyfriends.com even more especially because they are the best free web dating service and that means that you don’t have to be alone.

So when do we go from being friends to being partners? It is something that I have thought of a lot and I think I have some suggestions to the answer but because I know that we are all human and therefore we are all so very different I wouldn’t begin to boast that I have ‘the’ answer!

Personally I think that the first in a long list of answers to the question “when is it that a relationship begins between two people?” Is that time when you go from being always excited by the person you are dating, when things start to feel comfortable.

It is when things start to feel comfortable that you both can relax and begin to enjoy each other on another level and that level is a relationship.

This is the stage in your relationship when you truly understand your partner and can enjoy the feeling that they understand you and that in turn will make you both relax and the more relaxed you are with someone the more open you are and therefore the more you will trust that person on all levels.

It is at this point that you will discover that you are spending more and more of your spare time together doing things that you both enjoy and surely that is a relationship isn’t it?

It is my hope that you find someone to share your life with and that is why I work with those nice people at www.easilyfriends.com they really help and best of all their service is totally free, even the advice that I give confidentially one to one and that has helped so many people in so many ways I am pleased to say.

Everyone who is on their own deserves to find a special friend or partner and most importantly find happiness!

Sadly today it is increasingly difficult to find that special someone who might be a good friend or, you never know, may end up as your partner for life.

I have put together 6 steps that will help you to find someone special to share your life with. The 6 steps aren’t simple but they are easy to follow and they will help you find someone special but be warned the 6 steps mean that you need to really take a good look at yourself before you start to take a good look for a partner if you do then you will find the person who is right for you and they will delight in your company and that you have to agree is a great beginning.

The First Step

Probably the most important step in finding a special someone is the first one and that step is to really get to know yourself properly!

Yes it is a little obvious! But how on earth can you hope for someone else to get to know you when you have no idea who you are and the type of person you are looking to be friends with or more? So you need to know where you are in your life and what sort of person and relationship you are looking for.

Step Two

It is very important to sit down and think about the sort of relationship you want and the type of person you are looking for. Are at a stage in your life when you are looking for just friends, or do you want a long term relationship and marriage.

The sort of person who is just friends is very different to one who wants to settle down, get married etc., and of course it is important to know what you want because then you can look in the right place and save any heartache that might come with finding the wrong partner for you at the moment.

Step Three

You have to think about the past and ask yourself if you have ever tried to find happiness with the partner or partners you have had in the past or have you just used your former partners as objects of criticism, because it is likely that what you have at the moment maybe wonderful but you can’t see it through your attitude!

If this is the case maybe you should give the person you are with a second chance and try to see the good in your partner and do what you can to make life a better happier place and your one time lover loved again.

Even if this doesn’t work, there may come a time in the future where the love you find becomes old and stale, even routine, and that is when you might try to improve your relationship by being more loving, kinder and caring, these gifts are usually reciprocated when they are given and life will just get better and better for you and your partner.

Step Four

If you want to see how life can be when you are in a loving relationship look at people who you know who have been together for a long while, they have to be doing something right and it might be that you can spot what they are doing and use it to your advantage.

Step Five

The only way to ensure that the partner that you choose today or tomorrow will be your partner in a long term relationship is to think of your relationship as something that is going to last.

But like all things that last a long time it is going to need TLC and lots of care and attention and if you are prepared to continue to invest in this relationship it will pay dividens in the long term.

When you do this you will find that together you talk about your life together with your partner because you are both investing in the relationship and that means that you will both consider each other’s points of view and best of all well being.

The Last Step

It is so very important to ensure that the person you are going to spend the rest of your life with is right for you, never think that you can change or alter the things that you don’t like about your partner you can’t and most importantly you shouldn’t.

Just get to know the person you are friendly with so that dating, living together and spending the rest of your life together feels natural and that way you will both not only be happy but you will be making each other happy.

Those nice people at www.easilyfriends.com have just added what I think is a lovely feature – the ability to search for a friend, partner and more by using your Zodiac Sign.

This is a great way to discover that special friend who you can have fun with or… well who knows because you can use the compatibility of your Horoscope Sign to match with theirs.

As always when you are searching for a partner of friend you will be safer using www.easilyfriends.com than if you were to use most dating sites and that is because we carefully monitor applications to join the site which happily reduces access to the site for spammers and scammers and most importantly because we are free and will never charge you for any service ever we care about successfully finding you friends and possibly partners and we are not just after you money like pay sites.
