Happy New Year to everyone, but especially to my single ladies! This one’s for you! If you’re single, please make one of your New Year’s resolutions to date more. That’s right—just date more.

Being single can feel miserable, and it can become worse when well-meaning friends try to make you feel better. They offer encouragements such as “There are plenty of fish in the sea” or “You still have time.” But one riles me up more than any others: “You’ll find love when you least expect it.” Let’s see….would that kind of thinking work in other areas of life?
You’ll find a job when you least expect it. You’ll find a home when you least expect it. You’ll get a great body when you least expect it. You’ll make money when you least expect it. Of course not.

It’s just the perfect time to reflect, set some goals and look forward to making your future even better than your past. I tend to keep my most personal resolutions to myself. I weirdly treat them like birthday wishes and don’t share them because then they might not come true. So, don’t ask me to share mine! But, if you’re a single girl, I have some resolutions that should be on your list for 2014. Read more
Do you remember Hollywood sex in the old days? Halfway through the film you'd see the leading man completely ravish the leading lady. They'd look deep into each other’s eyes, they'd kiss passionately, he'd touch her all over, and when it became too much for them, he'd throw her on the bed and give her hot, passionate sex.
Here is the crazy thing. How would all those amazing sex scenes from Hollywood end? The couple would collapse onto the bed in a sweaty, breathy heap. Then seconds later they’d light up a stinking cigarette! Why would anyone want to smoke a disgusting cigarette after beautiful sex? It was the way Hollywood liked to depict sex. Read more
