“Will you marry me?”
It is amazing as to how those four little words can change your life. Of course you want the scenario to be perfect. Of course you want your soon-to-be betrothed to remember that moment for the rest of their lives. But part of the excitement and the anticipation comes from planning that intimate, romantic moment yourself.
So why outsource it?
Picture this, if you will…you’ve just divorced your wife of over six years.
And, oh the pain and the vulnerability you must be feeling! The excruciating shame that one can experience when something like a marriage fails! Especially considering it was your infidelity that may or may not have broken up the marriage... Ah, surely, these are emotions that almost any individual in this kind of a situation would feel.
Yes, the time it will take you to heal will most likely be extensive; you’ll probably need at least six months of Ben and Jerry’s good old fashion ice cream therapy to recuperate from what has proven to be an arduous, traumatizing process.
But maybe, just maybe, someday you will reemerge from all of this, stronger than ever. And perhaps, find the will to love again.
And of course, you want to be kind to your now ex-wife, whose life you shared for almost a decade, by being considerate when you do meet that special someone. Because after all, that’s just common decency…

Have you ever dated someone and knew something was “off” but ignored those nagging little red flags? Then, before you knew it those little red flags turned into big red flags setting off major alarm bells? Well, the authors of The Little Black Book of Big Red Flags know all about that! Ladies, learn from their mistakes so you don’t have to make the same ones!

Halloween is a great occasion for reminding us how important looks are. Whether or not you dressed up in a costume, your appearance gave messages to the people around you. Our appearance is ALWAYS talking so it is important that you pay attention to it and make sure it gives off the messages that you want to be communicating. I strongly recommend that you always present yourself in the best way possible because you never get a second chance for a first impression and you just never know when you will meet someone great.
Hey you.
Yeah, I’m talking to you.
It’s you crazy lovebirds who drive me up a wall and through the ceiling. It’s couples like you who’ve been dating for all of three weeks and think you are “so in loooooveee” because you both have “like everything in common” that make me absolutely bat shit crazy.
It’s not just because I’m “jealous” or “excruciatingly bitter” or “unpleasant” that makes me want to jump into Sarah Palin’s back yard dressed in a bear costume whenever I’m around you; it’s because when we hang out, I hear you throw around words like “marriage” and “love” as though you are talking about the weather.
Well, let me tell you something kids, love and marriage aren’t things you should be bringing up after dating each other for a few months, let alone a few weeks. And bringing these heavy subjects up so early in the relationship isn’t really doing you any favors, let alone actually going through with it and actually getting married!
Oh boo-hoo. Summer is a wrap and your surf lessons, barbecues, and flip flops are gone almost as quickly as they showed up. Although fall is upon us, that is no reason to throw in the towel, curl up at home in a blanket and watch your favorite reality shows. Autumn is a season to celebrate!
Ask a woman what she looks for in a man whom she’d like to date and most women would say that they find success, among other things, as an attractive quality in a potential partner.
But what if the man happens to be more successful than the woman? Well, that would not be perceived as an issue. In fact, some women would see this as an added bonus. Luckily for us ladies, the notion that you should find a man who can support you is drilled into our heads via our parents, religions, and Disney movies
We all go on first dates. And (let’s be honest) sometimes these first meetings go really well, and sometimes you want to feign food poisoning and abruptly end the date. So, what exactly can you do to “wow” someone on a first date? Tracey Steinberg has the answer:
Ever had a couple of pals of yours who started to date? It’s not totally out of left field. Your guy pal likes you and so does your female friend, so why wouldn’t they like each other? They’ve got at least one thing in common. But when they suddenly discover they have more mutual interests than just you, the situation can indeed become a slippery slope.
Here are five tips to navigate this tricky situation:
Sally Turkovich wrote a very uplifting piece for twoday magazine entitled, “Sweethearts and Webcams.” In the article, she links to a You Tubr video of a very sweet, loving older couple who is trying to set up their webcam but accidentally starts recording themselves.
