The first time my current boyfriend tried to take out my garbage, I stopped him. A few days later when he offered to do my dishes after I cooked him a meal, I refused.
When I told my mother, she asked me what the hell was wrong with me.
I’ll be the first to admit I’m a stubborn woman. After being single for nearly five years, I’d become extremely set in my ways. Without the support of a man I had to learn how to support myself– and damn it, I do it well! Read more
My guess is that both friends and dating columnists have warned you to steer clear of guys who are “on the rebound.”
Well, get ready for the curve ball that I am about to throw your way. In my experience, this is not always advice you should follow!
I strongly believe that if you are talking about a man who is a relationship-oriented guy (meaning he is most comfortable being in a partnership and knows how to be a committed boyfriend/partner) he is not going to stay single for very long after a break up. If you don’t snap him up fast, someone else will. That great guy will be off the market before you can even bat an eyelash.

Being in a relationship is a mostly wonderful thing. There’s the companionship, the learning, the laughter and don’t forget about the sex! But, there are some downsides to being in a long-term relationship. And the biggest bummer of a serious relationship is normally his family. I’ve heard so many in-law horror stories, I could write a book! (Actually, that’s not a bad idea! Maybe I will!)

I mean, some are just plain creepy right?
How about that guy that just makes you feel weird when you first talk to him, but for some weird reason you have him your number anyway thinking he’d never have the guts to call you. You just wanted to get rid of him so you gave him your number so you could escape. Read more
I’ve been spending a good amount of time in New York City recently. I’ve been going there a ton for work and extending the trips for pleasure. Some of my favorite people in the world live in New York City, despite the fact that I keep telling them that California is so much better! I got to thinking about how dating in New York is so much different than dating in the rest of the world. Here are a few of the things that are different in the Big Apple! Read more
I am not a game player. I actually despise the game players. Just like I despise the actions of women who think they are too good to walk thru a door that a man holds open for them—I’ll be sure to circle back to that one in another column. I think that game players are immature and set a horrible example for what people THINK dating should be.
Indifference. NO! Act indifferent and you will live an indifferent life. Read more
