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’?

Angelenos barely even eat…how can eating pies on a date be a good idea?!

To mark their one millionth date, an innovative dating site called HowAboutWe (which I – shameless plug here — wrote about in my book Internet Dating 101) shared the data on the most popular dating spots in various cities across America.

Gold diggers say what?!

This may come as a shock to you (OK, who am I kidding, it won’t) but, kind of like Weezer said, Beverly Hills is where you want to be…if you’re an aspiring mistress, that is. more…

Is it OK to unleash your sexual inner beast while in costume?

Every single Halloween I look at all the cat ears, miniskirts and pleather around me and my mind inevitably wanders back in time to Mean Girls. As Cady Heron, a young (and semi-innocent) Lindsay Lohan didn’t understand that Halloween is an opportunity not to show off your costume-making skills, but a chance to show off your body…without being branded a ‘slut.’

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…


Mirror mirror on the wall where are the easiest places to cheat of them all? 

If you’re looking for a little midday action away from your respective other, shame on you. Now that I’ve passed my judgment, I’m going to actually post the places the master of infidelity, Ashley Madison, has deemed to be the hottest infidelity playspots in Los Angeles. Read ‘em and weep…should you frequent these establishments for the wrong reasons, your partner will assuredly be doing the same soon, should she or he find out.

Say it ain’t so!

I am PISSED. Before I even moved to Los Angeles years ago, I took one look at the adorableness of Santa Monica at night and I swore that if I ever found myself living in Southern California, SM would be my spot of choice. Years later, I’m still in love with my neighborhood. I feel lucky every day to be here, gazing out at the Pacific Ocean from my balcony, soaking in the orgasmic sunsets and feeling the sunshine on my face. Unfortunately, a study conducted by AshleyMadison.com, a dating site for ‘discreet married daters’, Santa Monica is the number one spot for the unfaithful in all of LA. SHAMEFUL. more…

Bravo

I’m drinking the Hater-ade

If I have to see one more add for the miserable new Bravo series Miss Advised, I think I might puke. Though, in theory, it’s a cute idea, I don’t get why single women are constantly offering other single women advise on how to find love. Being a dating expert is one thing, but the true experts in love are typically in stable, loving relationships. Just saying. more…

Have hope…

Based on my personal experiences, I’ve pooh-poohed the idea that long-distance romance can actually work. However, there are exceptions to every rule. Here is the story of a California boy who fell in love with a Canadian woman. Their love had a happy ending, and yours can, too. Maybe. If you are the exception, that is…

Can you find love at a fetish-industry event? Beats me!

I must confess that the bondage industry isn’t one I was every completely familiar with. Yes, I do have several friends who act as dominatrices, but I’ve never seen them in action (I swear). They don’t discuss what they do, though aren’t at all shy about the fact that they do it. Seriously, all I know about the BDSM industry I learned from Fifty Shades of Grey. more…
