Timing is Everything

While eating dinner with a single male friend of mine, I was reminded again how important timing is in relationships. There's no way around it.

Known what?” he was silent a moment, then he said, “Denise.”

Why Do Bad Breakups Happen?

Breakups hurt as anyone going through one will attest to. Some people feel sad for a while, change some routines in their lives, reconnect with friends, and bounce back rather swiftly. Others, however, become entrenched in insurmountable sadness and gut wrenching grief. Why is it that some have a harder time getting over a breakup than others? Why do bad breakups happen in certain cases and not in others? The Origin of a Bad Breakup

***Being a Man of Inaction

We just finished another bootcamp for men in Chicago and are about to head to New York City for another one for men this friday-saturday, and I have to tell you how one thing strikes me: so often, men think that they have to be perfect in so many ways - perfect at their dating skills, finding the perfect woman to marry, and after a tough time of a long relationship or the absence of a dating life on the other end of the spectrum, many rubber-band to the opposite of what they think is failure - going after only what's perfect.

Well so many questions have arisen this week that return one way or another to this age-old problem that we just had to find a way to address it with the best combination of our offerings and advice.
