This year Valentine's Day falls within days of Chinese New Year, which I think is very auspicious for all those looking for love or embarking on a new relationship.
Both events are symbolized by the colour red, which represents romance and passion. And also good luck, good fortune and longevity in Chinese custom. I love the idea that both symbolize an exciting new beginning, hope and prosperity. Isn't that what we are looking for when we are looking for love?

Word on the street is that John Mayer and Katy Perry may be back together. Who knows if that’s true? I certainly don’t know for sure. But, I will say that it’s a scientific fact that John Mayer is the most charming man on the planet. He has a magnetism about him that no woman seems able to resist.

If you aren’t as into Taylor Swift’s 1989 as I am, you might not know that Taylor and Katy have some serious bad blood between them. (Also, you should definitely get into 1989.

Recently, an article published in Thought Catalogue called This Is How We Date Now kept popping up in my Facebook newsfeed. My friends and colleagues were sharing it like crazy! Intrigued, I clicked the link and gave it a read.
I was immediately into it. This piece of writing described something that I’ve been seeing a lot of over the past few years as a matchmaker. People have stopped committing. With so many options out there readily available with the swipe of our finger, our sense of how to fall in love and keep it close has been warped.

I received an e-mail from my buddy Andy the other day. She was casually seeing a guy for about four months. She made the mistake of sleeping with him the first time they went out.
Let me clarify, this isn’t a general mistake. There's no correlation between when a couple consummates a relationship and how long they stay together.
