“No!” The word exploded from her mouth as she stepped on a mine they both vowed to avoid. “You explain it to me now! Why’d you have to sleep with her? Why?”
“Are we still together?” he challenged. “Are we baby?”
“That’s not the point!” she bellowed. She smacked her cigarette between her lips and slapped [...]

The root of the word “infatuation” is fat. Fat = swollen /out of proportion. Infatuation is when affection is swollen out of proportion. And then the emotion ceases to be about the objective and is subjective. Unfortunately for both parties, the subject becomes self. The object becomes aware of his/her influence on others. The infatuated [...]

My sister was recently chosen for Grand Jury duty. It reminded me of serving on a jury in the past. I enjoyed jury duty – although it added validity to the pronouncements of women in my past. “You’re too judgmental” they’d declared. And now I can retort, “but they asked me to be!”

1. If you and your kid are checking the mail to see whose social security check comes first? It’s time he moved.
2. I’m turned off by a woman who only sees life from a feminist point of view. I like women who see the world above the waist.
3. “Get therapy” is a condescending and [...]

A woman asked this question on an online networking site:
“I am happily married but yet like to have fun by flirting. I say I am married not dead. Is it ok to flirt?”
And I replied:
Ok there’s a difference between having a good personality and flirting. If you flash your personality at both sexes without editing [...]

Men can sleep anywhere. We usually do. But – being in a close space the next morning when a man has to share in the light of day without the pretense of courtship or the protection of atmosphere – is an intimacy that can be daunting. It’s uncomfortable. And that’s why we usually try to [...]

I’ve seen the surveys. I’ve read the questions. I’ve heard the conversations. And now I’ll answer it.
Surveys suggest that the average couple has sex 1-3 times a month. In the real world – I don’t believe there’s a man walking earth that has sex only thrice a month. Well, unless of physical [...]

In my experience, I’ve almost never had a good second date. If I had a great first date – my expectations for the second were too high and I was disappointed. And if the first date was merely mediocre – I didn’t ask for a second date. Why waste my time?
So unless a woman breaks [...]

Men tend to hold each other to each word. A man will say to another man, “what did you just say?” because he wants to make sure he understood each word. He listens for infractions to his pride or attractions to his interests. Men don’t care why it was said. They care that it was [...]

One major difference between men and women in an uncomfortable dating situation is that women need to discuss the discomfort of a situation and men want to discern the most seamless way to find an exit without seeming like a sonofabitch. So when a couple experiences a humiliating experience and the woman feels the need [...]

Anyway – here’s a little – well let’s just say it’s a hypothetical dating tip:
If you’re going to paint a living room because your hypothetical girlfriend wants “to create a space that reflects the two of us” and you can’t find a drop cloth so you grab a sheet out of the linen closet – [...]

I used to hop out of bed. Then as I aged, I jumped out of bed because I was late. Now I roll out of it. I noticed this morning that it doesn’t matter whether I’m alone or not, I have to get out of bed on the right side. And I mean right as [...]

I love baby giggles.
I love dipping my fingers in the Holy Water font.
I love the feel of corduroy trousers on a crisp autumnal morning.
I love singing along.
I love laughing about women with my best buddy.
I love words.
I love seeing the synchronicity of Divinity and being reminded that God’s there and He remembers that I’m here.
I [...]

I don’t dance like Travolta. I did in the 70s. Although not nearly as well. Well perhaps if space aliens inhabited my body – but. And then, women loved that I danced because it was a dancing era. Any man that danced got a date.
Now, I rarely dance. Hell, I’ve got a bum foot. And [...]
