While it's true that women and men can have the same standard symptoms of clinical depression (check them out here), apparently a lot of men have a different experience of The Big D than we do.
Because of that, when they get depressed, we might not spot it.
Whereas women (who are diagnosed with depression at twice the rateof men) can walk into a gynecologist's office, complaining of things like chronic sadness, self-criticism, and crying, and get a ...

One moment he's a part of your life.
As a matter of fact, whether it's the early stages of dating, or the beginning of a relationship, things between you seem to be going along rather nicely.
Anyway...that's what you think.
The next moment - presto chango - he's GONE! No more contact. No explanation.
Now that he's disappeared, your private hell has just begun. Trying to figure out what went wrong. Questioning your perception of what you two shared. ...

Women complain that men are self-serving bastards.
Men complain that women treat nice guys with contempt.
Something doesn't add up here, wouldn't you agree?
Here are some popular theories for these dueling perceptions:
- the complaining "nice guys" don't understand the difference between "being nice" and "being a human doormat"
- women say they want one thing (i.e., to be treated nicely), but they want something else (i.e., to be treated badly)
- men just think that they're being nice to women, but in reality, they're still being ...

There's nothing like mutually-satisfying sex to put a big smile on your partner's face - and on yours.
But in the happiest long-term relationships, both people feel fundamentally appreciated for who they are and what they do...in-and-out of bed.
Appreciation: letting your sweetie know that you recognize and value what he/she does that makes your relationship a nicer place to be. It's the other gift that keeps on giving, except in a good way.
Sometimes though, it's the hardest ...

What's one of the advantages of being in a stable long-term relationship?
The many opportunities available for making a fool of yourself around your sweetie...
...and getting away with it.
But what about when you're around a new dating partner who interests you, and kind of makes you feel all nervous inside?
The reality is:
Dignity attracts, baby. Dignity attracts.
And that's one reason why I want you to hold on to your dignity at almost all times during the early stages of ...

"Obsession" sounds so…….extreme.
Sometimes though, when you have a new man on your mind, thereality is that you are a woman obsessed:
- you wake up to the thought of him
- you keep re-playing in your mind the last contact you twohad
- at least once an hour you wonder where he is and what he’sdoing
- all songs remind you of what it’s like to be with him, orwithout him
- if a phone call, text message, or email isn’t from him, you're disappointed
- one minute you’re certain that he ...

"Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the topof the tree. Most men do not want to reach for the good ones because they areafraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they sometimes take the applesfrom the ground, which are not as good, but are easy.
The apples at the top think something is wrong with ...
