There is a new book out “The Truth About Cheating”. The author, M. Gary Neuman, was a guest on the Oprah show. In his book, based on his research he concludes that the main reason men cheat is because they feel unappreciated and unloved by their wives. If a man isn’t feeling appreciated or loved by his partner before he cheats, I have a feeling he won’t feel more loved after she finds out. It’s contradictory to creating the necessary results.

I recently saw the film Elegy. Basically, a professor and his student fall in love. He let his fears get in the way of telling her or taking the relationship to the next level. Her love was sweet, innocent, and pure. She enjoyed his company, was excited about the relationship, shared her feelings, and invited him to group gatherings. He was not comfortable with being “public” to their friends and family. She was beautiful, young, and exciting. He was older, divorced, and emotionally not available. When he canceled attending her graduation party, the relationship ended. She was mortified at her party, a time of celebration. He was sick in bed with a broken heart.

You are single, and curious to meet someone new. You browse through the personals online or profiles on a dating website. You like what they have to say and want to respond. What do you do now? What is the best way to respond? How is your response going to differ from the other people responding?

You are single and have decided to take the plunge and post an online profile or personal ad. In order to get the best representation of you, I highly recommend getting organized and making lists.

I recently had a conversation with a gentleman who refuses to meet for dinner for a first date. He believes that based on the number of first dates he has; it’s too expensive. I have also spoken with women who will only go on coffee dates, out of fear of being stuck with people they don’t like or who misrepresent themselves.
NOT meeting for dinner may be the very reason they are not establishing a strong enough connection to having second dates.
