The other night, a friend of mine who was dating a new woman, called me up and said,
“David. She called me out.”
I said to him, “What do you mean, she called you out?”
“Oh, you know, we've only been dating a couple of weeks. We really like each other, and I kind of wasn't present for her. She called me out.“
I told him this girl is a keeper.
He looked at me and said Read more
Meeting his friends is almost as stressful as meeting his family and some might say even more important. Most men don’t see their family as frequently as they see their buddies. So, connecting with his friends in a positive way will have a bigger day-to-day impact on your relationship than connecting with his family. Although, obviously both are major when it comes to a successful relationship. So, how do you make sure that it’s a win when you meet his friends? Read more
The biggest question I get from random women who see me and stop me for advice is “How do I know if he’s interested in me?” Seriously, I get versions of this all the time in person on the street, on social media and from my female clients. And while there are a lot of gray areas when it comes to love and dating, this isn’t one of them. I have very black and white views when it comes to figuring out if a dude is interested and I’m not shy about sharing them. (Big surprise, I know.) Read more
I was watching the Shahs of Sunset reunion—yes, I’m that far behind on my TV! It’s been a busy summer!—and Asa was taking a lot of shit for keeping her relationship off camera.

Maybe your career isn’t going well right now or there are health issues in your family. Money could be tight or maybe something’s triggering bad memories. Whatever the case is, I’m sorry that you’re struggling right now. If there’s any comfort in knowing that you’re not alone, you’re really, truly not. Tough times happen to everyone, no matter how happy, healthy or wealthy they are. Headwinds are just part of life. They’re the crappy awful part, but it’s a very real part. And I actually think hardship can be helpful in a relationship. Here’s why. Read more
Portrait of a woman talking too much I’ve written a lot about how to deal with your man if he upsets you, but I actually haven’t written a ton about how to handle a situation when you do something wrong to your man. Believe me, it’s not because I’ve never made a mistake in a relationship. I have. A ton! But, I’ve learned from them. So, I thought maybe you’d like to learn from my mistakes, too. One thing I find myself in the doghouse for a lot is having a big mouth. I’m a private person about some things, but obviously not about others. I had a reality show for crying out loud! Read more
