Approaches

  When it comes to communicating, women have a more emotional approach to communicating than men.  On the other hand, men have a much more logical communication approach than women. So if women can communicate in a logical way to men, this should help him understand what you need on an emotional level, and that’s a win-win! And men, ya gotta understand how this works for many women, too.  Pulling out the crazy card doesn’t work anymore. Communication can lead to foreplay, which leads to intimacy on a deeper level.

Fixing A Broken Heart

Ever wonder why you keep thinking about your ex all the time…those fond memories?   Our common sense protective instincts that usually protect and serve us in a physical trauma aren’t used when your heart is broken…    When your heart is broken your thoughts go down a different path, heart ache causes such dramatic emotional pain, and even when we are given a very logical reason why that person broke up with us (damn it!) we make up mysteries and other theories when there are none.  We cannot trust what

Foreplay, not.

I’ve seen this over and over again, and I was reminded again…..ugh….not in my personal life, for the record only.  One of the greatest ways to kill romance, or any chance of romance in your relationship, is to leave a mess in your home for your partner to live with and clean up after. And while I’d like to say that you are simply a slob and don’t know any better, I’m calling your B.S.  You’re an adult, get your crap together or get out. This passive aggressive move is

Beautiful

“Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder”  While this phrase can be depicted in many ways, both positive and negative/derogatory, this is my dating insight blog goof ball, so let’s take a quick dive my way! Beauty does come from within, and while dating, some people will think you’re beautiful and some will not.  Yes, they will not think you’re the most beautiful or handsome person and you will need to get past this truth.  So, guys and gals of all ages when you’re getting ready for your date,

Ball & Chain

In a relationship do you have a ball & chain or are YOU the ball & chain?  I see this happening many, many times in a relationship.  In the beginning stages of dating, usually both people begin the relationship with an independent life and attitude.  And as time goes on, one of the two people slowly makes sacrifices in their own life to spend more time with their new partner.  What happens?  Their daily routine follows their partners schedule, and before they know it, Voila!  Now, not only do they lose a sense

Ladies, keep your legs crossed

My Parents, what we put them through as teenager’s once we were allowed to begin dating!  I have 3 siblings and we all looked alike. The only male is the oldest…lucky him….or his life would’ve been much different.   If my math is correct, there were four children in five years, and I must say we had a very fun home growing up.  When I entered high school in the Pittsburgh area, I walked down the hall as an insecure freshman, and the teachers would stop and say that I was

Is Sex 90% Mental?

Did you ever wonder why sex can be great one day, really great (!) another day, so-so (ok, I’ll take it) another day, and what’s happening to me another day?! My juju estimation is that sexual satisfaction #reachinganorgasm, is 90% mental, for both males and females.  Relaxation and chemistry can provide some really great romps in the hay.  Guys and gals this is why the drive home, or a walk with the dog, is so important after a long day of work.  And there’s a reason why foreplay can be

What if something wonderful is about to happen

What if everything you’ve gone through in dating, relationships, or marriage, are preparing you for what you’ve been asking for?  This inspired me because today I was thinking about someone that had a recent breakup and now seems to be past his rough patch and in great spirits!  Awesomeness is always around the corner if you let it be. Maybe this is why we date multiple people before we find the one we want to settle down with….the process of elimination, and not knowing what we need but finding out

Liar, Liar Pants on Fire

Remember that phrase from your younger years, and if you’re lucky enough to be blessed with children, are your kids using this phrase?  I remember the one time I was caught in a lie as a child, I let the hamster out of the cage to run around the room and voila,  he disappeared.  There weren’t any of my three siblings around, and of course they wouldn’t take the blame anyway.  Yup, caught in a lie and for me as a child this was traumatic.  I didn’t get spanked or
