Perception of a Single
For those of you who hang out with married friends, do you find that there is a separate set of rules or that maybe you are perceived differently in dealings among the married folks? To clarify, in a group of married friends who are genuinely affectionate with each other (hugs hello/goodbye kinda thing), joke around and…

Big Step...
I took a huge step out of my dating comfort zone last week and thought I would share. I attended a seminar in DC for work. One of the presenters was an attractive guy who I had a quick chat with before his presentation. He seemed very nice. So I jotted his email address down in my notebook. All the way home I…

In our electronic society, we've all gotten accustomed to email and text communication. Some even prefer it. But how much validity do you put into communication via social networking sites like Facebook or Twitter? Example...let's say you dated someone and it didn't work out. You part ways.

No Scale August
I did not participate in the No Scale July effort like many of you, but I have put my scale away for August!

Wanted to throw this out and see what y'all think.... I realize that many of you prefer not to sleep with someone until you are exclusive.

Things that make you go hmmm....
I've always joked that every single girl should have a fireman in her contact list. I had a fireman for quite awhile actually. Great guy whose company I enjoyed thoroughly! We got along really well, had a blast when we were together, and best of all, he was always honest & upfront about where he stood. From the very…

Dating Relationship Terms...
There are different terms used in the dating world regarding relationship status. Some are obvious and upfront. If you say you are "just friends" or "friends with benefits", if you are in a committed relationship you are "exclusive" or even "in love", you have a "girlfriend" or a "boyfriend". But what about the ones used…
