Don’t miss out on love…

Obviously, I’m a big believer that love can happen anywhere, at any time.  That’s why I want you to imagine the following scenario. Pretend for a second that you’re a New Yorker waiting for the 6 train and you happen to lock eyes with a handsome stranger across the crowded platform.  You feel a jolt down to your pinky toe (and maybe elsewhere too). But then the moment passes. He gets on the train and you’re still stuck waiting with a sinking feeling in your stomach, wondering what might have been. more…

Oh for cripes sake…I can barely believe this.

For anyone who’s ever felt like a dumbass for dating the guy you knew was going to break your heart, just thank God you’re not as much of a sucker as Lindsey Vonn. Why else would the respectable, stunning Olympian not only date renowned philander Tiger Woods (that’s a whole ‘nother issue for a whole ‘nother day) but then admit it to the whole word on Facebook, as if she was proud of it? Some girls just never learn. more…

Picture this: you’re traveling solo, en route to the airport. You’ve stopped at Hudson News to purchase a few magazines, sneakily shuffling Us Weekly in between the folds of Time and U.S. News & World Report and head over to sit while you wait for your flight. Though you should be focusing on all the worthy (ahem) reading material before you, you can’t help but do a quick scan of the room. Hello! Who is that handsome stranger with the excellent behind standing just two aisles away? Is he looking at you? How can you make this happen? What if he’s ‘the one’?

If I said I didn’t know how I felt about a new wedding trend, I’d be lying. It’s called the “naked wedding” for a reason, and those saying ‘I do’ do so in their birthday suits. I mean, whatever floats your boat, right? But don’t make your guests watch! more…

Where should you go if you’re single and ready to mingle?

I’m not going to sugar-coat this for you, and I’m sure you won’t be surprised, but I absolutely loathe New Year’s Eve. Not to sound sour, but there’s so much anticipation, so much effort, into ringing in the New Year in style that inevitably, the night itself is a bit of a letdown. more…

Think it can’t happen to you? Look at Holly Petraeus, whose husband of 38 years, Gen. David Petraeus, recently resigned as head of the CIA after he was caught having an affair. How did both his career and (still pending) marriage go up in flames? Yep, just like many cheaters, Petraeus got busted over some inappropriate emails. Not too intelligent, that.

Group dating, blind-style

If you’ve ever online dated (I have) you know that safety precautions are a must. You know the drill, tell your friends where you’re going, who you’re with, how you found him and his social security number (if you have it, as I bet some of you tech-savvy super sleuths do). But there’s no need to freak out that you  might be going out with a future serial killer — or even to feel awkward about meeting the potential meet of your dreams blindly anymore thanks to a new online “social” club called Grouper. Intrigued? Read on… more…


Good news at last for those who insist on dating their dude pals

I can already envision a few specific female friends that might be, at this very moment, clapping their hands in glee. I personally happen to think that male friends make the best boyfriends (unless they get all awkward and shit), and it looks like my beliefs are correct. A new study shows that couple who starts out as ‘sexy friends’ or ‘friends with benefits’ can actually establish a different, more loving relationship down the road. BOOM!

Who would you date?

I know I tend to write a lot of shizzle about The Bachelor without ever having truly watched it, but that’s because I’m truly fascinated by it. 25 men/women vying for the attention of one ‘Bachelor’ or ‘Bachelorette’, who, by the way, is probably making out with at least half of his or her wannabe loves. In the words of the great Peter Griffin (of Family Guy fame), it really grinds my gears when I see any of these clowns pledge eternal love on a TV show…and give those that have ‘made the cut’ a ROSE of all things to advance to the next round. How trite and corny can you get? These people obviously haven’t heard of Dorothy Parkermore…

Also get informed about the cities that value sex the least — so you can avoid them!

I am a very, very lucky girl. I was pleased and surprised to find that my hometown of Santa Monica, California, was ranked second among the top ten places in America where sex is valued the most. I mean, I would be more excited if, say, love was valued above all else, but this I can live with. Believe it or not, eight of the top ten cities on Chemistry.com‘s sex list — in a survey of 10 million people — are in the Golden State. Peace, love and surfers galore! Why doesn’t everyone just move to good, old C.A.?
