This post was originally titled “3 Ways to know he’s a keeper,” but I changed it to “your keeper,” because that’s what important here. Who the heck cares if the guy looks good on paper or if a lot of other women want to marry him? What matters if he’s your forever guy. That’s different for every woman. And here’s how to tell if the guy you’re dating is your keeper. Read more
Doesn’t it drive you crazy?
You meet a guy, you smile, you chat for a while, and then you give him your phone number. You’re waiting for him to call you, but instead he gets into a text game with you. But wait, let me ask you this question…
When a man DOES call you, do you pick up the phone?
If you miss his call, do you ring him back right away?
Or do you just text him back and carry on with the texting game. Back and forth you go, without actually speaking or arranging a date. In today’s modern digital world, everyone is so confused. Nobody knows what to do when they meet someone. Should we call? Should we text? Should we Tweet? Read more
I was having a conversation with a client of mine earlier. We were talking about her relationship with a new man she’s been dating. Things haven’t been going well, so we looked at whether it was worth saving the relationship, or getting out before things deteriorate. I asked her to write down all the positive things about the guy on one side of a sheet of paper, and all the negative things on the other.
She thought for a while and then started writing furiously. At the end of it, there were three things on the positive side, and ten things on the negative.
What was top of the list on the positive side?

This weekend I got asked a very interesting question from one of my favorite girlfriends. She’s fabulous and beautiful and very, very successful. She’s one of my best friends and one of my role models. And it’s a very rare thing when she comes to me for advice. Normally, it’s the other way around. (Get your chins off your chests, people! Yes, sometimes even I ask for advice!)
Here’s the deal. My friend is dating a man whom she suspects make less than she does. They haven’t talked numbers yet, but she’s pretty sure. And she was wondering if I thought she should get serious, and maybe even marry, a man who makes less than she does. Well, I had some thoughts for her that I thought I’d share with you all too, hoping they’d help you too. Read more
Hope you lovelies has a gorgeous week. I definitely did. I’ve been super swamped with work recently, but I had some very successful dates with several of my clients this week. And getting those phone calls is the best. I’d stay in the office until midnight every single day of the year if it meant more gleeful post-first date calls. Another reason my week was so great was your questions. Let’s jump into them. Read more
Do you find that the best way for you to relate to someone is via e-mail, or texting?
Do you feel you could open up more in an e-mail than you can in person?
Do you feel like you can express your thoughts better when you write them?
It’s amazing when you think about it. Go back 30 years and all we had were conversations. Now we have so many ways to communicate instantly without having to actually speak, we rarely hear each other’s voices anymore. I’ve had entire “relationships” where I’ve only emailed the person. Not once did we communicate by phone.
Is that the right or wrong way to go about relationships? Read more
