You can’t stop thinking about him

"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 ...

Love can be fragile, but so what

“…what I always thought was that there was this one perfect person for everybody in the world, you know, and when you foundthat person, uh, the rest of the world just kinda magically faded away and...and you know, the two of you would just be inside this kind of protective bubble.But there is no bubble.

Or if there is, we have to make it.

If women were apples and men were grapes

If women were apples and men were grapes

Like other women with girl friends and an email account, Ireceive written morsels like the following almost every week:

"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 ...

Sometimes a massage is just a massage

Sometimes a massage is just a massage

Sitting on the runway for 40 minutes, waiting for our planeto get the AOK signal for take-off, I learned way too much about the talkative guysitting next to me.

Amongst other things, he shared that a womanwho’s on birth control pills [read: she doesn’t insist on condom use ever] is worth her weight in gold.

Shortly there after, he made a reference to The Mile High Club, his eyesdarted up to the sign for the restrooms, and then ...

Size is important, so make sure his heart is big

Size is important, so make sure his heart is big

Happy to report, I’ve been fairly successful when it comesto detecting men who have cheating or substance abuse problems.

And yet…mean-spirited men have been able to fly right under myradar, undetectable until it’s almost too late.

First of all, I’m a sucker for Mr. Dry Wit. So sexy. The problem is, wittiness, and awicked sense of humor in general, can allow some men to cloak things likeanger, hostility, and a mean streak a mile wide.

Next there’s The Backbone Factor. We ...

It’s unrealistic to expect 100% unconditional love (unless you’re my cat)

It’s unrealistic to expect 100% unconditional love (unless you’re my cat)

It’s the middle of the night, I'm exhausted, and I want tosleep.

Unfortunately, getting some shut-eye is the lastthing on his mind. That’s why he keeps letting me know, in subtle andnot-so-subtleways, what he wants.

It starts with the gentle rubbing against me. Then it progresses to serious nuzzling.

And ifthe rubbing and nuzzling don't rouse me sufficiently, he intensifies his efforts with some pawing.

No matter how tired I am, though, it'simpossible for me to work up any genuine ...

Your sexual reputation, hand-written thank you notes, and other old-fashioned things

“I don’t believe in email. I’m an old-fashioned girl. Iprefer calling and hanging up.” (Sarah Jessica Parker)

“It is better to be old-fashioned and right than to be up-to-dateand wrong.” (Tiorio, an ethical philosopher type)

According to the dictionary, an old-fashioned person favors ideas, customs, and styles of days gone by.

I'm waiting for someone to call me old-fashionedfor the ultra-fem, vintage clothing pieces I sometimes wear. But it's never happened.

Yet a man once told me that I wasbehind the ...

A man who brings out your best

Do you have one of those relationship dealbreaker lists?You know, the list that describes the qualities you have to have in a man,along with the qualities you simply won’t tolerate?

If you’ve taken the time to write such a list, I'm impressed!

Now put it away.

Then, being as honest as you can be with yourself, make twobrand new lists:

  • The “Good Qualities I Bring to a Relationship” list

And...

  • The “Not-So-Good Qualities I Bring to a Relationship” list

Why these two lists? Let ...

The other gift that keeps on giving: a guilty conscience

The other gift that keeps on giving: a guilty conscience

“I mean, I felt terrible. And in thebeginning, I mean, I was completely devastated. I mean, can you imagine thekind of guilt that you would feel, and the responsibility?” (Monica Lewinsky)

“Guilt is the pledge drive constantlyhammering in our heads that keeps us from fully enjoying the show.” (Dennis Miller)

“I don't believe in guilt. I believe inliving on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person, anddon't judge people in your life. I think you should ...

When a man opens a door for you, do you slam it in his face?

When a man opens a door for you, do you slam it in his face?

A man in my past -- let's call him Mr. Manners -- opened the door when we entered and exited restaurants and other public places during dates.

But wait. That’s not the whole story.

After opening the door, this guy stepped through the doorway before I did.

Sometimes Mr. Manners even allowed the door to start closing in my face as he raced ahead. After a month of this, his attractive backside walking away from me became all-too-familiar.

And I ...
