By Whitney Baker Your cute neighbor – who you’ve been crushing on since he moved in – finally asked you out on a date. He even planned the evening for you: an al fresco dinner at your favorite restaurant followed by a romantic stroll through a nearby park. Sounds perfect, right? It is…until your allergies show up (uninvited, of course) and you can’t stop sneezing. Itchy eyes and a red nose is not how you hoped to end your night. If only you would’ve learned from Brooke Burke-Charvet’s mistakes. Merck teamed up with the Dancing with the Stars host to create the video below, showing you how easy it is to live your life with your allergies instead of constantly battling against them.   Thanks to non-drowsy Claritin®, Burke-Charvet can survive her busy day – and you can make the most of your relationship with that new man in your life. The difference is clear. Disclaimer: I wrote this post while participating in a blog tour conducted by Burst Media on behalf of Claritin®.

This post brought to you by Platinum Guild International USA. All opinions are 100% mine. By Lori Bizzoco When it comes to celebrities and their diamonds, nothing makes them glow better than when they're set in precious platinum.  Whether it be diamond rings, earrings or bracelets, platinum is a celebrity favorite.  Ann Hathaway, Mila Kunis Halle Berry, Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman and many more have worn it over and over again on the red carpet.  In February, Jennifer Hudson who gave an emotional tribute to Whitney Houston at the Grammy's, wore a radiant pair of platinum and onyx earrings by Neil Lane. But, what happens if you don't have a movie stars budget? Well, your are in luck because for the first time in recent history, the price of gold per ounce has risen higher than that of Platinum.  So, now platinum is more attainable than ever before. Three Key Reasons to Buy Platinum: It's eternal and has everlasting radiance  The durability and resistance to wear makes it the most secure and protective metal, which means your jewelry will be protected for a lifetime  Platinum does not change shape or wear away so precious stones are held firmly and securely. If you are in a relationship and ring shopping, now is a great time to invest in this rare commodity.  A women's wedding band and engagement ring are two of the most sentimental and important pieces of jewelry that she will ever own.  For a man, his wedding band needs to last a lifetime too.  Platinum will stand the test of time and look just as good fifty years into the marriage as the first day its put on.

How About We.com If you're looking for love online and haven't found it yet, perhaps all it takes is a little offline help.  You see, many singles meet potential partners online and carry on great conversations via email but sometimes that's as far as it ever goes.  Or, they spend weeks, even months, emailing someone that they think could be a long-term partner but when they meet in person they realize that they have nothing in common.  Online dating is a brilliant way to meet someone new but the the real connection happens when two people are face-to-face.  That's why we were excited when we saw the launch of HowAboutWe.com's recent commercial, Chemisty Happens Offline.  HowAboutWe.com really "gets it."  They influence their members to get out there and go on dates when they find an initial connection.  In fact, they are so committed to this idea that they are running a very cool contest asking people to submit their own video explaining what "Chemisty Happens Offline" means to them.  The video with the most votes could walk away with $1,500.  Here's a look at the video we pulled together: Remember to enter the contest and vote for your favorite video by "liking" it.  Also as part of the promotion, those who sign up for HowAboutWe.com are eligible to take 33% off their subscription simply by using Coupon Code: VDAYLOVE Here are five reasons why we at CupidsPulse.com feel that people need to go offline to find love: 1. Unflattering Photos: Some people aren't photogenic and they actually look better in person than they do in a photo.  Someone's personality and mannerisms can also add to a person’s attractiveness.  As they say, Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder.  It's hard to get an impression or build chemistry from a one-dimensional image. ...on the edge of your seat?

WINNER #1: Amy C. I had gone to a birthday party for my best friend from college a couple of months ago. While I was there, I had the opportunity to meet all of her friends from home. There was one guy in particular who was very cute, but I thought nothing of it. The very next day, my friend calls me up and says the guy is interested in me and would like to go out to dinner and a movie. OMG!  The night of our date, I walked into the restaurant with butterflies flittering in my stomach.  I spotted him in a second but I was very confused because he was sitting up close and personal with another girl! I was mortified. I honestly thought I was being Punk’d. Who ends up asking you on a date and then shows up with another person?! As I ran out of the restaurant I tripped on my shoe; as if it couldn't get any worse.  He didn't even notice.  He's still very close with my friend and as he explained it to her...his ex came crying and screaming to take him back that night. Personally, I think he could have called and saved me the humiliation and trip to the restaurant.  I still run in to him often and it's so uncomfortable. I know it makes my friend uncomfortable too.   WINNER #2:  Katie S. I was having a nice dinner at a restaurant with a girlfriend one evening, when the man sitting at the the table next to us (let's call him Pete) offered to buy us a drink.  We made small talk with Pete and his business colleague throughout the evening and when he was finished with his dinner, he handed me his business card and asked me to please call him sometime. Pete said that he was very interested in taking me out on a date.  Seeing that I had just ended a five year relationship only months prior, I felt flattered and excited about the possibilities that lye ahead.  All hope was not lost on a broken long-term relationship.  The two men paid their check, said their good-byes and left the restaurant.  About three minutes later, Pete was back. I thought to myself, "Wow, he really is interested in me."  He smiled as he approached us but instead of continuing his gaze in our direction, his ocean blue eyes hit the floor.  It was not out of shyness though.  He was on a mission to find something he had left behind.  He looked on the table and under it.  Then, all of a sudden there it was..a shiny gold wedding band.  Sitting right there on the floor next to his seat.  I stared in utter disbelief that he had been so careless, not to mention that he even took it off in the first place.  He picked up the ring, looked at me and said, "My colleague left this behind and asked me to get it for him."  I gave a partial smile and turned away.  Needless to say, I never called him.  I am not writing this sticky situation on my account. I am writing it on behalf of that man who must have felt like a complete idiot when he had to come back and admit in cold blood that he was lying about his relationship status.  I'm just glad that I found out the truth before any date took place.
