A friend invited me to lunch with her and her 62-year-old sister. “Sis” is dating, although she admitted to only having one date a year, so I use the term “dating” loosely. Sis shared about her one 2009 date. She’d met the guy online, talked a few times by email and phone, and felt they…

In the early getting-to-know you stage of dating, it’s not unusual for there to be some miscommunication. However, how one handles these hiccups tells you a lot about the person’s thinking. This is a good thing, as if their thinking is 180-degrees off from yours, you learn early that you aren’t a match. Today I…

We just created a new video, “Avoiding Dud Dates After 40” based on real-life experiences I’ve had with men — before I even met them! We tried to make t fun. See what you think. If you like it, would you do me the favor of sharing it through Facebook, Twitter, etc.? Video produced by…

A gal pal recently asked me why I thought a man would go poof after expressing great interest in a woman. The obvious answers would be: he was a player and said he was very interested in every woman something happened for him to lose interest (e.g., she said/did something that was off-putting; he got…

I’ve been approached by the PR firm for the new movie “It’s Complicated” offering prizes for you, my readers! Additionally, the PR firm for K-Y Brand “Yours+Mine” and “Intense” personal lubricants offered prizes. Plus I’ll add copies of Date or Wait: Are You Ready for Mr. Great? and some Flirt-O-Grams.
