Reza Farahan Makes a Pretty Strong Case For Dating Nerds: “[They've] Gotta Go Downtown”
As a happily married man, Reza Farahan is off the market for good. But, that doesn’t mean the Shahs of Sunset pal doesn’t like to lend dating advice for those still searching for their Mr. or Mrs. Right. As just one example, he’s more than willing to help his gorgeous and single friend Destiney Rose find love. And recently, the haircare-line founder offered some advice that might be of interest to the single masses who think of nerd as the bad kind of four-letter word.
When chatting with Personal Space during a visit to Bravo HQ with Destiney, Reza had this to say to his pal, and to anyone listening. “Nerds are great in bed though, we discussed this.” Here’s how he figures: “Cause if you have no personality, you don’t pop bottles, you’re not fun, you don’t listen to music that’s from this century, you listen to classical, you have to be good in the sack because otherwise you’re not getting a second date. You have to be really about your mate in the sack. You gotta go downtown.”
He added “I would actually like to see [Destiney] date and marry a nerd, a nerd with potential. A nerd who didn’t know that he had a freakish side in him, and Destiney can help bring out the freak. Because the problem is, if you date a freak … chances are he might also do that with 12 other people, so it’s hard. You’ve got to find that balance of nerd and freak.”
And for any interested suitors, Reza has this plea: “If you’re eligible and you’re a nerd who has the potential for a freakish streak, please hit Destiney up.” Maybe Destiney should start hanging out at IT conferences … or classical music concerts. We hear violinists can get pretty wild.

UKMatureDatingSite.com Prioritizes the Needs of Singles Over 40 & Delivers a Trustworthy Dating Service
I had a pretty irreverent group of friends in high school. Nothing was taboo with us, and we could turn anything into a joke. One morning, however, a member of our group just wasn’t laughing that much. We teased him about moping around until he finally blurted out the truth.
His parents were getting a divorce. I’ll admit that it took us a while to find the funny there. But, true to form, a couple hours passed and then someone asked him, “Do you think your mom is going to join a dating site? What if you match with her?” Our friend cracked a smile, so we started imagining all the wacky dating hijinks his mom could get up to.
We thought we were joking around, but, as it turned out, she did end up going online to find her next long-term relationship. She didn’t embarrass her son by dating someone he already knew, though. Instead, she fell for a pilot who lived in Italy but frequently flew to our city.
Online dating has opened up an avenue to romance that wasn’t available to my friend’s mom when she was in her 20s, but she certainly reaped the benefits of it in her 40s.
A dating site called UKMatureDatingSite.com has embarked on a mission to use modern technology to connect singles over 40 and help them take a second shot at love. This robust dating network includes mature men and women from all walks of life. By targeting a more experienced crowd, the dating site has upped the caliber of the online dating experience.
Today, UKMatureDatingSite supports thousands of active members seeking friendship, companionship, and love.
“Most people prefer to date someone who is close to them in age, especially people over the age of 40,” said Evgeniy Garkaviy, Spokesperson for the dating site. “UKMatureDatingSite was founded to cater for single men and women over the age of 40.”
Safety First: The Platform Makes Users Feel Comfortable
It’s natural to outgrow a few things as we get older. I no longer enjoy cherry icees as much as I once did. My brother had to throw away his favorite college gameday T-shirt when it stopped covering his midsection. A friend of mine used to cover her locker with Orlando Bloom posters, but she didn’t even go see the latest “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie. The older you get, the more your interests diverge from those of your younger self.
Yet one essential need stays the same no matter how old you get: the need for companionship. If anything, the desire to make friends and build relationships only grows stronger as you grow older, especially for singles of a certain age. Niche dating sites, like UKMatureDatingSite.com, recognize the importance of building social connections throughout life and provide useful tools to help singles over 40 maintain an active dating life.
UKMatureDatingSite is a beginners-friendly dating platform where singles can learn the ins and outs of online dating in a safe environment. The site offers online dating information to help them get started. Oftentimes singles over 40 haven’t tried online dating before and don’t know much about it, and that can make them exceptionally vulnerable to online scams. However, UKMatureDatingSite arms users with information and sees to it that they know what they’re doing.
Signing up to UKMatureDatingSite is a snap — it took me less than three minutes. Every step of the way, the dating site offers advice about how the interface works, what to say in a profile, and what to expect going forward. Whether it’s explaining the search features or recommending matches, the dating site goes above and beyond in its effort to keep users engaged. Its educational approach to online dating helps singles build confidence as they slowly but surely master the art of online dating.
The UKMatureDatingSite team actively monitors the site and removes profiles that have fake photos or inappropriate content. The dating site’s team works overtime behind the scenes to ensure its members are genuinely seeking a relationship online.
Singles on this dating site tend to be looking for a serious relationship, so they appreciate the chance to cut through the nonsense and start connecting with sincere people who share a similar life history.
“In this dating niche, our members are done with child-rearing,” Evgeniy said. “They are usually more secure financially and emotionally. Our role is to match them with people at a similar stage of life.”
The Blog Teaches Best Online Dating Practices
UKMatureDatingSite.com allows singles to find compatible matches by searching the database by age, location, ethnicity, relationship status, hair color, eye color, and other criteria. That makes it easy for singles who know what they want to find viable date prospects. But what if you don’t know what you want?
The dating site doesn’t just throw singles to the deep end and hope they can swim. The UKMatureDatingSite blog offers helpful dating tips for anyone new and inexperienced in the online world.
The blog’s safety tips article is particularly enlightening for senior singles, who often feel fearful of encountering online scams. The article recommends common-sense guidelines, including choosing an easy-to-remember yet hard-to-guess password and delivers a reassuring message to singles.
“The bottom line is that you should always stay in control,” the article says. “Meet in a public place, tell someone when and where you’re going, and arrange to call them at a given time to confirm all’s going well. If your date is worth their salt, they will completely understand.”
All in all, this treasure trove of information encourages singles to feel confident about their ability to get a date online without compromising their safety.
One love advisor named Lynn Pemberton wrote on the blog, “For those of you who are 40-plus and single that would rather have a companion in your life; you have come to the best place to solve your dilemma. Internet dating sites are amazing as long as you navigate them in a method of fun and safety.”
UKMatureDatingSite: A Useful Option for a Mature Audience
Being single in your 40s is no laughing matter. Mature singles often have difficulty meeting new people, and it can be tough for them to break out of their shells and build steady relationships. Online dating effectively solves that problem by bringing people with similar outlooks, backgrounds, and relationship goals together in one convenient place.
Whether they’re recently divorced or never married, anyone over 40 can meet their match on UKMatureDatingSite.com. This secure dating site efficiently connects single men and women seeking a long-term partner. Modern singles can use its search tools, safety tips, and live chatting features to make their online dating experience the best it can be.
“It is quite satisfying to know that we have introduced thousands of mature singles to each other,” Evgeniy said, “and they have gone on to form a lifelong relationship.”

- People on Reddit complain that dating on keto is challenging, because of the diet’s strict rules about what you can and can’t eat.
- One Reddit user says his keto diet ruined his date.
The high-fat, low-carb ketogenic diet is all the rage these days, with devotees like Vinny Guadagnino touting it as a great way to lose weight. But dropping those pounds may come at a price; according to several Reddit users, following the keto diet could set you up for some pretttty awkward dates. I mean, what do you do if there’s nothing on the menu that’s keto-friendly? And what do you do if your date doesn’t understand your penchant for eating mass quantities of beef jerky and hard-boiled eggs?

Redditors have taken to the online forum to share the trials and tribulations of dating on the keto diet. Here are three ways they say keto has made their love lives a little challenging, to say the least. Thankfully, other Redditors chimed in with some helpful advice.
A Keto Debate Ruined This Guy’s Date
In a post called “Keto ruined a date for me,” user typical_iowan_male explains how his date took a turn for the worse when the conversation topic turned to carbohydrates. His date, who graduated from nursing school, argued with him about how many carbohydrates your body needs to function each day; things got especially heated when the Redditor tried to discuss the benefits of keto and intermittent fasting.
“She looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language,” he wrote.
Apparently, our friend from Iowa isn’t the only one who’s experienced conflict because of his eating habits.
“You know how they say don’t talk about politics on a first date? We should probably add keto and IF to that list,” Redditor Nobuko42 advised.
This Keto Follower Just Doesn’t Date at All
Some people apparently skip dating entirely because they don’t want to talk about their dietary preferences.
“I would be more open to dating if there was a keto dating site,” writes imsosorryeh. “Starting all over with a new person AND having to explain why I eat like this seems like a big time hassle.”
Although a few people agreed with the original poster, many feel the right person will accept your diet.
“I do keto my wife does not, we are happily married with two kids. Diet is kinda irrelevant if you find someone who actually cares about and that you care about as well,” one commenter explained.

Ordering Keto-Friendly Food and Drinks Can Be Time-Consuming
Many dates revolve around eating, and ordering on keto isn’t always so straightforward.
As Themoreddit wrote in a post, “I know what to eat, but how do I order without looking crazy? Should I explain keto to the server? My date?”
The user explained that finding a keto-friendly alcoholic beverage resulted in a 20-minute conversation with the waitress about which beers were gluten-free. In the end, Themoreddit settled on white wine and wings, but wants to avoid awkward moments during future dates.
The community offered up plenty of advice about go-to orders and the best way to broach the topic.
“I’ve found that if you do have to explain, to anyone, it’s better to say that eating his way makes you feel so much better. Weight loss does not have to come up at all,” one commentor writes.
