Should you tell your friend about her guy’s bad behavior? My answer is, “Itdepends.”
I’m a big believer in trying to “nip it in the bud” with the man at first, ratherthan telling the friend. This means communicating to him -- in a lightheartedway or not -- that you haven’t forgotten for a nanosecond that he’s involvedwith your friend. You don’t flirt along with his off-color comment. You avoidhis wandering hands. And you do your best to steer clear of him. ...
Rejection is one of life’s most unpleasant little realities.Every time you start a relationship, there’s a risk that the other person coulddecide to walk away before you do. So, on some level, knowledge of that risk isgoing to be in your mind.
But that doesn’t mean you go into relationships, expecting to get rejected.
Or maybe…….you do?
One of the worst things about expecting rejection -- evenfrom a man who isn’t on his way out of the relationship -- is that ...
“Men are delusional. Hugh Hefner lounges around in abathrobe with three live-in girlfriends. You know guys are sitting at homewatching the Playboy Channel and thinking, ‘That could be me. I’ve got a bathrobe.’” (Denise MunroRobb)
While my husband’s doing the dishes, I like to come upbehind him, stroke his back, and tell him in my most seductive voice, “You have no idea how sexy you are right now.”
Not so coincidentally, I occasionally say the exact samething whenever he ...
“I’m not shooting for a successful relationship at thispoint. I’m just looking for something that will prevent me from throwing myselfin front of a bus. I’m keeping my expectations very, very low. Basically I’mlooking for a mammal.” (Janeane Garafalo)
Have you ever gone through a Basically-Looking-for-a-MammalPhase? I have. And at the lowest point of the phase, I temporarily talked myself into thisguy, “Dick.”
Honestly, I knew from the get-go that Dick was trouble. ...
If you haven't already done some digging, consider it -- whether your childhoodwas a happy one or not.
Years ago I did some major “excavating” of my own littlefamily of origin issues. Digging through various familial feelings andassociations, I confirmed a nagging suspicion: a less-than-rosy relationshipwith my dad was contributing in a serious way to some of my dumbest choiceswith men.
Still, those dumb choices were mine,and mine alone. Not that some men in my ...
“At the beginning of a relationship, wouldn’t it save somuch time if you could just ask the guy, ‘Hey, are you an asshole?' And the guycould say, ‘Yeah.’ Which would be okay with me, because I go out with assholes.Exclusively.” (Karen Haber)
It doesn’t matter if you’re single, or seriously involvedwith someone. You can always get smarter about men and relationships. In fact, whenever you get some brilliant insight into love that changes what you do for thebetter, ...
If you're a single woman doing the holidays, you may be seriouslyflirting with the idea of doing something unspeakable.......if you haven't done it already.
I know. It seemslike the answer to what's bothering you right now -- the longing to have someone special for the holidays -- but I promise you, it’s the wrong move to contact your ex.
Anyway, it's a wrong move to contact your ex if ANY of thefollowing conditions are true about ...
Isn't there a "rule" written in stone somewhere that a woman should wait for a man to make all the courting moves, including being the one to make contact after a first date?
Yeah. Whatever.
If you're the kind of woman who feels natural going after what she wants in a more direct way sometimes, here's a thought: how about being yourself and finding a man who's comfortable with that?
There are men who don't get turned off cold by a ...
Within ten minutes of meeting this type of guy, you conclude thathe’ll be boring -- in and out of bed. Part of the problem is that he'stoo N-I-C-E. And, because of that, he doesn't immediately excite yourerotic taste buds like some men do.
So you write him off as a Plain Vanilla Man.
Anyway, that’s his bland, generic flavor according to you. To another woman he might seem morelike premium Haagen-Dazs’ Vanilla Swiss Almond, or their decadent VanillaFudge Brownie.
And if ...
Iffights happen in your relationship every once in a while, don’t worry --provided that both of you stick to some fair fighting guidelines.
Ideally,if you’re single and getting involved with someone new, it’s a good idea to startlaying the foundation for fair fighting BEFORE you have that first majorblowout.
How do you do that?
Bydiscussing important topics with your partner to see if the two of you arebasically on the same page. Some of the dirtiest fights in ...
