A lot of women say that they want a nice guy who treats them well but they don’t mean it. What they really want is that rebel bad boy who will make their life interesting because “If he loves me enough he will change”. It becomes a challenge for them to try to [...]

There seems to be a very thin line that separates lighthearted flirting from offensive sexual harassment. In the past, I had always assumed that the difference had more to do with who was doing the flirting and not what was actually said. However, a recent comment that I made in a public forum [...]

I mentioned in an earlier post that, despite my misgivings, I’d registered for an online dating service last month. I was a bit dismayed by many of the messages I received, but there was one in particular that struck me immediately and has become a sort of shorthand for all of the inappropriate comments strange [...]

Tiffany,
I can’t help but notice that some people have a difficult time making decisions in life if they are faced with too many choices.

I definitely agree that the message [...]

He was probably trying to be polite. Maybe he heard that women like coffee and I’m sure he has had women tell him, “You’re wasting my time”. I don’t think that he meant to say that it would be a waste of time to talk to a woman if it wasn’t going to [...]

I’m a middle aged single Dad, raising a teenage daughter who lives with me. I’m a Dad by choice but the single (and middle aged) part…not so much. So, finding time to meet women who are dating prospects is challenging. Online dating sites seemed to be the way to go. I [...]

We were in the middle of an email exchange about relationships when my friend Mike said, “We should be having this conversation on a blog.” It was an obvious diversionary tactic, designed to distract me from the fact that he was Entirely Wrong About Women, but I took the bait anyway.
Dating can be tough, [...]
