More than meets the eyes

An agitated co-worker came running into the office after lunch today and grunted about her annoying lunch date. She was set up by a co-worker who felt she was exactly his type, an Asian woman. Despite uneasy feelings, she decided to give him the benefit of the doubt and agreed to the set up.
As she [...]


A reason, a season, or a lifetime

Sometimes we’re too quick to judge our relationships with others. An ex becomes the enemy simply because of the change in status. We get mad at them, either for leaving us or forcing us to leave them. We call them names. Our friends help along, telling us how they weren’t good enough for us and [...]


Can’t Find a Date? Then Move!

Doesn’t it sometimes feel like there just aren’t enough single guys or girls in your city? Well, maybe it’s true!
National Geographic magazine recently published a chart showing the how many more single men and women there are in each major US city. The results: there are a lot of single women in the East Coast [...]


Starting the conversation

There she is. She walked by and your heart skipped a beat. You really, really want to talk to you but you can’t for the life of you imagine what you’d say. A lot of guys have trouble initiating conversations with girls which is why so many revert to stupid pickup lines that, in almost [...]


The Sad Truth About Relationships

Check out this pretty funny video called: The Sad Truth About Relationships. It is not the most inspiring video on relationships out there, but it is pretty funny…
I wonder how many of the situations that the video pokes fun of (like why wedding engagements tend to last for a year and a half, etc.) [...]


When the one you want doesn’t want you

I met her at work. My initial reaction? Hey, she’s kinda cute. As it turned out, we’d be spending a lot of time together as I was to help show her the ropes. I saw her nearly every day for three months and sometimes spent a significant portion of the day with her. Slowly, she [...]


Men Are The New Women

“Nobody knows what the hell they’re supposed to be doing anymore.”
- Jennifer Armstrong
“I never let myself develop a set of balls. Or rather society stifled my balls. … Neutered; that’s how society prefers its men today.”
- Paresh Kumar

Are Men the new Women? Are more and more men taking on traditionally feminine gender roles?
The phrase “Men [...]


Are You There God? It’s Me, Potted Plant

Did you have a good day? Mine was okay. I know I only write when I need a favor, but I am hoping you can grant me one wish (slightly different from a favor, in my opinion). Could you fix eHarmony’s algorithm so it stops matching me with Apu, David Hassellhoff and Yanni?
Thanks so [...]


Rule #1: Cheating means it’s over

When you’re learning to drive, you typically learn about all of the strange rules of the road. Things like who has the right of way when coming to a four-way intersection make most people scratch their heads. We just accept the rules as they are stated even though some seem illogical. These rules weren’t made [...]


Cat Woman

So, at one time, Cat Woman was a cool, sexy villainess who was always outsmarting Batman. Maybe she was a bad pussy cat from time to time, but you have to agree that she was hot and someone you would want to know more about.
But, sometime between then and now, having anything to do with [...]
