Note from the Editor:

I assume many of you are rather perplexed by this. Isn't lolita suppose to be kept separate from dating? Naturally it is so.

I cannot stress enough how important it is to keep lolita separate from sexual attraction. Lolita should not be a style worn for men who find it attractive, and it should not warrent the attention of men. In the case that it does, it is perfectly acceptable for the victimized lolita to beat the offending man off daintily and romanticly with her Victorian Maiden parasol.
However, this does not exclude a lolita from having a relationship. She simply must not do so in the context of being a lolita if she is with a man, as anyone who is dating her for her clothing is not dating her for her personality. This is unacceptable. Not just lolita, but everybody who is in a relationship, must be in that relationship because they've found something wonderous and beautiful within the person they're dating. That, in turn, will make them beautiful too just being with that person. If it's a relationship out of lonliness or fear, or dependence, than lolita or not, that is the worst thing you can do to another person or yourself. If it's for money, I can't condone it, but....well, the world's the world, right? Just don't use it to buy lolita dresses; use your own money for that.

Anyway, in order to help lolita in finding their princes, I have decided to develop something I with to call...

The Gothic & Lolita Dating Guide

Here you will find the most up-to-date maidenly techniques and ideas for any romantic situation you may find yourself in.

The original concept came from the 1985 dating self-help video "How to Read a Woman like a Book"...only the time is no longer 1985, and no one knows who Robert Redford is, and so your editor has taken it upon herself to modernize this particular work. Let's face it, times have changed, and the tips of yesterday just aren't the tips of today. It is based on advice I have given to real life friends that they have refused to follow. Well then, are you ready? Let's Loli!
