A Date Should Not Be an Interview

A new popular television program has got the dating world in a doozy. What Chili Wants has got women and even men setting an almost unreal standard for a partner. If you have tuned in for the show recently, you would have witnessed Chili going on a series of dates and finding flaws in all of them. Now, I don't criticize her for having standards, but I think when you create an "ideal guy" you will turn more people away who don't have those qualities and end up lonely because no one meets your "criteria." Think about it, you create this person with all the right qualities, mind you no one is perfect, not even you nor I, then you go on a soul search to find this earth Jesus type of guy and never find him, Wanna know why? He doesn't exist. Not saying there isn't a man or woman that if perfect for you, but if you set aside the small changeable flaws and focus on the traits that compliment you both as a couple, your love life will be more successful. If you can't find happiness in anyone that you date, take some time and evaluate yourself and make sure you are not the problem. Word from the wise: Look for someone equal as you. If you set a standard too high for yourself you could be chasing that person whose out of your league.

Got Sol?

I'm always intrigued by young entrepreneurs; it says a lot about your character that you can start your own business and make it successful, have supporters, and do it all before the age of 21. I used to see people wearing clothes by the name of Sol and I never knew who or where it came from. Then I did some research and found a guy named Necho, Founder of Sol clothing. Born in Queens, New York, with a Jamaican background, this young designer started his line at age 17 along with his partner Calvin Lee. Necho or "Neek" traveled back and fourth from South Florida to Baltimore with his clothing line giving both places a taste of cool California and B- boy swag. He tells me he started promoting himself by passing around shirts and I must say it must have worked because a good amount of people in Baltimore, where he currently resides, are hip to this new urban clothing line. He currently is selling his merchandise by cartel and you can find him on both Facebook and Twitter for more details.
