Make Your Relationship Work

One of the more interesting questions I received here came from a fellow who quite self-effacingly claimed to be the kind of guy that nobody tends to notice much when he goes out. He wants to meet some nice young women but had no idea how to meet them. Also, he’s a terrible closer. Hell,…

Flirtexting. At some point you’re going to have to do it, but if you don’t know where to start or what to say, here are some pointers for tapping out a teasing text that’s sure to get his attention. Once you’ve been dating someone for a while and are comfortable enough to talk about new positions…

We know! Only weirdos and desperate people are online, which is weird because you’re online right now reading this sentence, but if you are adamantly against online dating and its many pitfalls, more power to you. Leave now. These tips are for everyone else. Use recent photos. Assume you’ll eventually meet your suitor and he…

In Victorian times, flirting involved the careful choice of floral symbols and calling cards, and all flirting took place on well-chaperoned social occasions. Fortunately, for singles today, Twitter offers a perfectly low-pressure way to get to know your crush. There’s no need for elaborate introductions anymore: following your crush on Twitter is easy and non-committal, and…

Online dating can be a total bust – ridiculous e-mails from guys who aren’t your type, discovering that Oh, hey, men lie in their profiles – or it can be bliss. If you find someone you actually like and want to date exclusively, you might be ready to give up searching for love on the Internet once…

It must be the time of year. Everybody I know is depressed right now. Okay, not everybody, but it seems that way. I’m also getting more questions about depression from my readers, lately. Depression and anxiety, unfortunately, seems to be a way of life these days and is serious business. We dismiss it by saying,…

Quite frequently, my blog queue of questions involves random inquiries into whether its possible to tell if a particular suitor is interested. Most of the time these questions come from the ovaried lot, but every so often, ye of testes pontificate similarly. While grand, sweeping gestures are what most of us love to see as…

While some people have Mrs. Cleaver for a mother, others have mothers at the other end of the spectrum. If you’re grown and still have to dread hearing things like “Well I would have” and “Why didn’t you” and “You’re so…” it is time to change. You can’t change your mother. She is decades older…

There are definitely some behaviors that two friends should not engage in if they’re trying their best to uphold their friendship (read: attempting to ward off temptation, hormones, and IKEA). Thing is, the fact that you are just-friends doesn’t mean that there won’t be any flirting or touchy-feely going on. Nope. It just means that…

This is going to sound supremely stupid. I’m aware of this. Luckily, a vast majority of relationship “issues” sound stupid because whether we like it or not, there’s a lot of “how does it look-ism” as opposed to “what’s really going on-ism” involved. We all get so caught up in what something may look like…
