If you’re single and looking for a boyfriend or husband, as many of my clients and friends are, I say you’ve got to be going on all cylinders at all times. Dating is basically a full time job and you’re not going to get anywhere if you treat it as anything less. I encourage all the single and looking people in my life to be very no retreat, no surrender with meeting new men and dating. But, there are times in all of our lives when it’s OK to take a break from dating. Here are a few of them. Read more
Waiting for the phone to ring or your text notification to sound or your SnapChat to snip (or whatever SnapChat actually does) is a crappy feeling. You feel helpless and forgotten. Or, at least, I do. I absolutely hate waiting by my phone. It’s the absolute worst part of dating and I’m so over it.

Hi Emily,
I've been with my boyfriend for around 8 months and have still never had a REAL orgasm during sex. And as if this isn’t bad enough, my partner has no idea, because I’ve gotten into the habit of faking it. I know, it’s terrible!
Now I’m tired of pretending and am ready for the real deal, but don’t know how to confess my sin. I want to be honest with him, because it’s not fair to him or to me, but I feel like it will break him if I tell him the truth. How do I approach this?
Thanks,

One of my very good friends just ended a long marriage. While the end of a marriage is of course sad, this was a long time coming and the best thing for both of them. The divorce is recent, but the love ended a while ago. Emotionally, my friend is very ready to move on from her old relationship. But, she refuses to date because she’s petrified of being rejected.

I got an email from Petra today.
She was curious about something, and I'm going to share it with you.
David, What's your advice for communicating online with guys who are very general with their conversations? For example, hi, how are you? How was your day? Etc.
When you make the effort to respond and be more inquisitive, they just answer your questions, but don't ask much about you or give you much to work with to keep the conversation going. Read more
