<h1><em>Most of us spend more time choosing our latest cell phone than learning how to develop and deepen relationships&#8230;</em></h1>
<p>The general view is you either instinctively know how to create relationships, or you don’t. There are the charismatic, attractive people… and the rest of us. Love either hits you over the head, or it doesn’t.</p>
<p>Humans need to love and be loved in order to thrive. Yet, most of us spend more time choosing our latest cell phone than learning how to develop and deepen relationships. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">And that’s not your fault!</span></p>
<p>Most of us feel disempowered and lost when it comes to creating meaningful, loving relationships that make life juicy and delicious. After all, fates had to align for Snow White and her Prince–right?<strong><em></em></strong></p>
<p>Are you tired of waiting for your glass slipper to arrive, or your white horse to trot up and lead you to your dream partner? Or does your current relationship lack the spark and delight you believe in your heart is possible?</p>
<h3 align="center"><strong><em>The truth is there are specific actions you can take,<br />
and specific skills you can develop,<br />
that will enable you to feel POWERFUL in relationships.</em></strong></h3>
<p>We’re not talking about following a set of rules or sleazy approaches. We’re not talking about trying <em>harder</em>… We’re talking about a new pragmatic approach that is authentic and unique to you… that will let your inner self shine and attract the types of people who are naturally an amazing fit for you.</p>
<p><a href="http://reidaboutsex.com/creating-connection/greengrasscouplekissing/" rel="attachment wp-att-5141"><img class="aligncenter" title="GreenGrassCoupleKissing" src="http://reidaboutsex.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/GreenGrassCoupleKissing-300x202.png" alt="Couple in a green shirt and brown shirt kissing while laying on a green lawn" width="300" height="202" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>“That which you seek is seeking you.”</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">— <strong>Rumi</strong></p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>Why not make it easy for your connections to find you?</em></strong></h3>
<p>The average person is still functioning with the same skills that got them (awkwardly) through their fifth grade dance. Most of us go through our lives hoping to stumble on the person who will “make us” feel fulfilled. We go shoe shopping at a trout farm… and wonder why we can’t find a single pair of shoes to fit our feet! We start thinking there is something wrong with us, that love has passed us by, or perhaps we’re not worthy.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>We want YOU to find fulfillment and possibilities in this New Year.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Creating Connection: 6-Calls, Plus BONUSES&#8230; Only $47</strong></span></p>

Wish you could find the secret formula to winning at the dating game? Tired of putting your heart and soul into every relationship only to discover too late that it was a mistake?Join world renowned sex and relationship educator Reid Mihalko for an intimate &amp; rewarding discussion about how to turn dating into a win-win situation for you and those you date.</p>
<p>In this 90-minute discussion, where you&#8217;re encouraged to bring your questions, your frustrations, your theories, and your confusion, Reid will walk the group through his personal perspective on how to date to win. We will cover:</p>
<ul>
<li>Why so many people date to lose and how we set ourselves up for failure</li>
<li>Approaches that can turn any date into a win-win situation</li>
<li>How to figure out who you should be dating in the first place!</li>
<li>How to tell when dating should be transitioning into &#8220;relationship-ing&#8221;</li>
<li>And ways you can support yourself and your friends in making the game of dating more playful, satisfying, and rewarding!</li>
</ul>
<p>If you&#8217;ve ever thrown up your arms in defeat and thought of quitting the dating game, or have settled down with the first person who came along because being in a relationship with anyone who wasn&#8217;t an axe-murder was easier than continuing dating&#8230; Well, this talk is for you!</p>
<p>Bring your friends and spread the word! This afternoon promises to cut down on your dating headaches, restore your self-esteem, and put a smile on your face!</p>
