New York is an ever-changing city which means, as inhabitants, we must evolve with it or risk being left behind in the dirt dust. This applies to how we discover our next job, the steps we take to acquire a fantastic apartment, and even the way we look for love.
It’s not like it was any easier to find a job back in the day. Gorgeous apartments still exist; you just need to find them on Craigslist, not in the newspaper. And, chivalry isn’t dead; it’s just morphed into modern times.

I know, I know…some of you are rolling your eyes at the title of my blog. Seriously, what can The Bachelor teach us about love? When the first season aired in 2002, I too thought, What are these women thinking? Where’s their self-respect? But when I watched this season’s episodes, I had a different take on the show. It’s not because it’s any different now than 13 years ago, but because I’m different. In 2002 I was still in college. Now, I’m a dating and relationship coach who has spent the last several years specializing in love and researching what makes relationships work.

This afternoon, I was jamming out to “How Will I Know?” which is tied with “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” as my favorite Whitney song. Anyway, I was listening to the lyrics and I was thinking that she’s actually asking a really great question. How will you know when your boo really loves you? Here are three major hints.
