OTTAWA – 28th Aug 2009 -  The bitter taste continues for an Ottawa man who has been accused of using an Internet online dating service to con several women into making investments into a bogus imported wine grapes scheme.

More alleged victims have reported to police following charges made earlier this month against Angelo Morena, aged 49.  During the past couple of weeks, a number of women have contacted police with allegations that a man they had met through an online dating service had convinced them to invest their money in importing grapes from Italy and California.

Morena now faces three counts each of fraud and offering false pretences over $5,000. Morena also faces six charges concerning breach of probation. 

Anyone with further information should contact police at 613-236-1222 ext. 5943 or CrimeStoppers at 613-233-8477.

Possibilities often go beyond bounds. We are after all in the 21st century and alternative online dating is more openly discussed, indeed it is almost the trend in the dating arena today. OK I admit it simply sounds non-mainstream, but what is the norm nowadays? Alternative online dating comes in many shapes and forms and for the purposes of discussing the online dating scene as a whole, it simply refers to any kind of niche online dating that is different from the romantic, love flavored advertising we see in regular online dating sites.

This does not suggest that all niche dating is alternative dating as, for example, interacial dating can be classed as niche dating even though couples meeting on such a site may only be interested in a mainstream relationship. The same could also be said of seniors dating where the sexual side of the relationship may not even exist, or prisoners dating where it cannot exist. Alternative dating therefore refers to the type of sexual relationship that is sought by members who join a particular online dating site to find a partner that shares the same sexual interests.

Alternative dating is just an coming together of like minds, and the big advantage is that it becomes much easier to find that person of a like mind, whatever the kink. Alternative dating sites also give you the opportunity to explore and interact with others of a certain genre. The powerful part of interacting through any online dating site is your ability to choose your words carefully and be as colorful as you want, and create your own level of acceptance in any subject.

Alternative online dating should always be harmless and for adults only. The downside to alternative dating is you may interact with students who get hooked with non-realistic freedom to explore. It is each individuals choice to explore what fits him or her as long as he can deal with it accordingly. Alternative dating can and should always be fun, and a great way to meet someone who you have more in common with, for a long or short term relationship… The choice is always your own.

Nowadays the stigma of an age difference between dating couples is not such a big deal anymore.. It’s a much more common sight and women who date older guys will tell you that sugar daddy dating has its benefits..

A growing percentage of females will readily admit to sugar daddy dating.. preferring the company of an older guy when on a date, rather than same age dating or younger. The present day ‘Sugar Daddy’ is a far cry from his early 20th Century counterpart, who would have been much more inclined to keep such a relationship private, enjoying clandestine meetings in dark corners of secret venues. Today, the older gentleman will display his younger partner openly, publicly and with pride.

Here are ten powerful arguments wich go a long way to explaining why sugar daddy dating is becoming more and more popular within the online dating arena. Our comparisons are centered around age difference relationships and with long term in mind.

1./ Typically, even those most adventurous of females will feel much safer when sugar daddy dating, and in the company of a more mature ‘sugar daddy’ type date, especially on the initial meeting. The older guy will often suggest coffee or dinner in a crowded venue as a first meeting place, or be content for her to suggest a place where she is more likely to feel comfortable. Her peace-of-mind, during that first meeting in particular, will figure high on his agenda.

2./ Generally, women attracted to sugar daddy dating, notice the higher level of respect shown to them during such relationships. The emphasis on romance will often overshadow his desire to get her into bed and is typically more apparent. Unlike his younger counterpart he is less likely to be interested in the short term superficial encounter.

3/. In the case of sugar daddy dating the prospects of a long term relationship are usually very real. The older guy’s playing around days are obliterated in the past, his mature mindset now focused on the many other aspects and indeed the benefits of being involved in an adoring long term union.

4/. The relationship formed in sugar daddy dating often centers around the older male’s need to protect and support his younger partner. Many will often misconstrue this notion as a ‘sex for favors’ arrangement. Yet in his mind, bedding her is far from being a pre-requisite. His pride would be severely questioned if he believed for a moment that his sexual encounters were a direct result of his demonstrations of his kindness.

5/. Loyalty too will be a key factor. His desire to protect and support his girl will be extremely focused, and his eye is less likely to be turned in other directions. The strength of the relationship formed when sugar daddy dating is an important issue and the ‘sugar daddy’ will defend that vigorously.

6/. Whether it be family responsibilities, ex partners or even financial issues, ‘baggage’ from the past can often derail an otherwise perfect opportunity. When sugar daddy dating, the older, more mature male is less likely to allow external pressures to spoil the possibilities often taking his partner’s external responsibilities on board with grace, understanding and with a positive attitude.

7/. Sexually, although not quite the opportunist he was when younger, his need to delight and satisfy will often be stronger than seeking his own self-gratification. In the case of sugar daddy dating, the sugar daddy will take time to seduce her mind, his idea of foreplay has evolved way beyond the ‘fumble on the sofa’ status. Now, the afterglow of those intimate encounters too will be loving, embracing and warm, with pillow talk becoming an integral part of the process.

8/. Romance is an important issue of any dating experience, but a sugar daddy will attach more importance to the romantic suggestion. This does not simply manifest itself through flowers, gifts and material things, but in hand holding, public shows of affection or even little notes left discreetly where he knows she will find them. Sugar daddy dating can be more romantic than some believe possible.

9/. As far as maturity is concerned, it is generally accepted that the female of the species is far more mature the the male at any given age. Therefore sugar daddy dating makes sense as she would have more in common with an older guy than one her own age. They are more likely to hold each others attention for longer periods, have more interests to share and be much closer as friends within the overall relationship.

10/. With sugar daddy dating, a sugar daddy will always enjoy spoiling and pampering his young lover and make her feel like a princess. Not always by showering her with material gifts, but generally taking care of her needs. Making her feel that she is important to him. Loved.. cherished.. protected.

Years ago, a sugar daddy would typically shower his young lover with gifts and often cash, as a ‘reward’ for her company or sexual favors, and the idea of sugar daddy dating was generally frowned upon. Nowadays the arrangement is often centered around a relationship, a lasting bond between two willing partners. The spoiling and pampering satisfying both his need to give, and her need to receive. Twenty-first century sugar daddy dating will often develop into a powerful union of mind body and soul, leaving the conventional relationship in the dust.
