Romance and Dating in Prehistoric Times

Before we begin this fascinating topic of dating in Prehistoric times it must be known that the majority of this information is based on no apparent facts concerning how to get a date other than how many glasses of wine the author has consumed during the writing of this article. Any similarities between persons living or dead is clearly coincidental, and quite frankly, weird.

The first singles clubs

Having grown up watching the Flintstones, I now feel as if I am an authority on life in the Stone Age, including the dating rituals of that period. Lets be real, how many of us had a mad crush on that first Sugarbabe, Betty Rubble, and although they did not have the luxury of online dating, there is something to be said for communication via a hollowed out log or tying a letter to a flying lizard. Men and women have been hooking up since the beginning of time, heck, if they weren't, none of us would be here. But how they got together is the fun part. Contrary to what movies and television show us, it was not as simple as merely walking out in the woods and bopping a woman over the head and dragging her back to your cave, this may work in places like Brooklyn, New York but highly doubtful in Prehistoric times. Women through all periods of history wanted to be wooed before submitting to the advances of a cave dwelling Sugardaddy.

Romantic gestures

There are proper techniques for prehistoric head bopping and dragging by the hair but you first must be stealthy enough to get close enough to strike. Women of the Stone Age were tough and if they saw that club hidden behind your back as you were handing them meat, grubs or some other display of affection, you may be in for a formidable battle. It is for this reason that prehistoric man often worked in groups of twos. One would distract the female while the other delivered a love tap to the head with his mighty club. I mean would Fred really have had a shot with Wilma without help or divine intervention?

The beginning of Sugardaddy dating

As stated earlier, gifts were an important part of the prehistoric dating process as those who seemed to be the best providers were the ones most likely to hook up with the desired females and thus continue on the road to procreation and the carrying on their genetic line. This is basic evolution and survival of the fittest as the biggest and best are most likely to survive. There are of course exceptions to every rule and in every generation or period of time there has been the occasional Don Knots and Arnold Horshack. As we have said, gifts were a large part of the way in which men have shown their ability to provide, a Bronto burger was simply not enough, but continuously providing meat went a long way in winning over your intended female's family. It's very much the same today, taking a woman to a fine restaurant and the ability to pay for a better home will usually attract the most desirable females.

The Evolution of Dating

Romance and dating in prehistoric times, as well as throughout the centuries, is not all that different. The key differences are in the type of technology used to find a significant other. We have gone from wooden clubs to online dating sites; from large quantities of meat and the ability to create fire to a high paying job and a luxury car, the idea however is the same. Romance and dating is not rocket science, outside of some enormous chemistry or attraction between two people, the best provider usually wins out in the end. It's just nature's way.
