Why We Date
As human beings we have what can be considered some of the strangest mating rituals in the animal kingdom. Most species hook up with members of the opposite sex to procreate and nothing else. There is no emotional bond that ties them together for the rest of their lives other than the need to continue the species. Now that's not to say that all animals are like this, there are some species out there that do mate for life, but the overall percentage of those types are small.
Sure, you can say that many animals have mating rituals that rival ours. There are male birds that flaunt their colorful plumage trying to attract a female, but is that really dating or just a type of seduction? And in the end isn't that what going on dates is all about, seducing that someone we've had our eye on.
Dating is a form of seduction, only for us humans it can sometimes take a much longer time for the desired results to be had. In the animal world there is a specific time of the year when seduction and mating can take place, and with the exception of humans, dolphins and some primates, animals mate to continue their species and not for the pure pleasure of it. For most animals it is the drive to survive as a species.
We humans have taken the whole dating/seduction ritual to unforseen heights. Just think of all the things we do to try and impress that special someone. And why do we want to impress them? Because we think we like them and if we don't do our best to seduce them using all sorts of dating tricks and techniques then someone else will and that's just not acceptable.
So why do we date?
To impress someone we are interested in? I would say yes on that one. I can't think of any other reason to spend that kind of time and money other then to do just that.
To continue the human species? This is a far more subjective question. Do we really need more humans on the world? That's debatable. I think for the majority of humans it's for a little more selfish reasons and that's to have somone come after us who carries the family name onward into the future.
Just for the fun of it? Now here's whole another way to look at it. Meeting new people is fun. Particularly if you are attracted to them. Dating is fun and it introduces us to whole new ways of thinking and approaching people.
The why do we date question is a hard one to answer, but whatever your reasons may be it's a part of what makes us human.
BONUS : Why Women From Russia In Search Of A Husband Abroad
A Google search for a "Russian marriage agency " yields more than 250000 results. Let us be frank: these are the surprising results of a country FSU. Russia was locked away from the rest of the world over a long period of time and has finally achieved its independence 16 years ago, opening up broad prospects for cooperation with foreign countries. Russia is still a young country, so any way this effect is unexpected. What is the reason for this business to prosper in the countries of the former Soviet Union over the past few years? Are women in these countries rich hunting husbands? Will get around an unforgettable romance short term? Or do they just want something deeper as true love and relationships somebody to be happy?
Fortunately for me, when he began a swarm these questions in my head, a good friend of mine, who has lived in Italy for several years, was in the city to visit her family. So, instead of looking through stacks of statistics and wracking my brain to get the information so interesting to me, I got in touch with her and her brain loaded with all the questions.
Before going, I want to make it clear: does this article are the motivations and desires of every woman in Russia, introducing his profile to a marriage agency. In addition I will be the one to inspire foreigners: Do be careful once they chose the path of the search for a marriage agency. In the past, some ladies of Russia from the former Soviet Union countries have provided more than enough negative publicity (read my article on fraud in the city of Lugansk, Ukraine), but don 't let miss and the timing of the gift to someone Pleasure of communication and the possibility of finding love. With this in mind, I proceed.
When I started questioning the motives of the Russian women who take the opportunity of matrimonial agencies, my first discovery is very worrying. One of the main reasons why the FSU women prefer foreigners is that the men in their country of origin are 't good enough. There are a lot of bad stories about the lives of girls from Russia abroad. Why not admit that the reason is for men in the home, which, in my opinion, don 't know what is a family? "- Said Natasha comments on the article in one of the main documents of Russia, which blamed marriages Foreigners. "Unfortunately, the 'Russian ' men have a long way to go to keep up with the men from abroad. "Some agencies bridal give the same information. An American journalist, who had a "Romance of tourism from Russia to find a bride 'trip to Russia as part of his research for a story, says in his online journal, which the instructor on the tour explained: Ukrainian and Russian males' drinking, philander, Alternatively beat women and neglect. "
Obviously, not all FSU man treats women in this way. However, a general conception that most brides Russian / Ukrainian women by men in their home countries is reduced to a few common words: irresponsible, hard heart, too demanding and was not willing to provide their children, and much less than his mother. Throughout the history of Russian women have been famous for the way they treat their families. They are loving, dedicated and caring, and to arrive at a marriage agency that dream to find someone like them, the creation of a strong family happy.
Otherwise by Natasha observed during its three years of marriage to a foreigner: To tell you the truth, I did not marry him 't think about life in Italy ... But the Italians in the family is very, very important, and put a great emphasis on family values. This means a lot to me. Foreigners in general, seem to be more serious about the family and children, unlike the men in the home. "
Consistent with the lack of quality men from the former Soviet Union, there is also a lack of quantity. Statistics show that during the year 2002, the male-female ratio was 46% to 54%, and hasn 't changed much since then. Given that a large part of these 46% are people who can 't be counted for the love, care and support, which leaves the ladies of Russia and Ukraine, very little to choose from. Of course, the solution to the problem is broading their horizons.
"All the good have been snatched away long ago, your chances of finding someone in this country after they turn 25 are close to zero, " Natasha mused over a cup coffee (he married his beloved Italy at the age of 29). "Apparently, the boys (in Ukraine) disappear when they turn 30. "
On top of all said, the recognition of their own femininity sets the FSU women apart from the United States or Europe ladies. Most foreigners in mind that the FSU women, different from the latter two, and I don 't mean just outside her beauty, which has been mentioned by many and admired. These ladies like to be painted rather, it is not uncommon for them to wear a dress and pumps on a regular basis, who are concerned about their body and taste to be attractive. In short, they want to be feminine, not feminist.
The FSU women love to be a 'weaker sex', which for them means the care of his family first, in addition to being careful and appreciated. Promises that seems to be in abundance by the Americans and Europeans, many of whom share a view that has been too long since Western women have shown no desire to appreciate the softer side of the 'more weak gender. " Compared with the constant bustle of women in the house to make the race and to achieve equality with men, the feminine side of the FSU ladies is an advantage to the men from abroad. Even some FSU men admit that 'their' women are attractive to foreigners because exactly "women are still not emancipated some feminists, as in the West."
Natasha dreamily recalls his first visitings Italy: 'When I was in Italy I was treated like a princess surrounded with care, so I lost a lot of our men. I think there is so much beauty (Russia), which our men are just used to it, it is mundane to them, they forget about simple compliments? Italians value of beauty. "
After all this, what can I say to men in search of their destiny? It all comes down to what you are looking for. Undoubtedly, there will be some money-hungry vamps, eager to trap. If you want exotic night, you can find that in Ukraine, Russia or anywhere in the world for that matter. But there is no better place than Russia and Ukraine if you want to find a respectful, caring and loving women who love their families.
