Warning: Love In 10 Words Or Less [EXPERT]

Poetic warning against settling for less than we deserve in this February Month of Love.

February - the Month of Love. For singles hoping to be couples, February can be a month of loneliness and agony instead. For centuries, poets have captured this pain with a romantic sincerity. This pain is powerful and can make us do the most ridiculous things in the name of finding Happily Ever After, especially with so many potential mistakes being available to us at the stroke of a keyboard.

The Cookie Mate—Make Him a Reality! [EXPERT]
What qualities do you look for in your perfect partner?

The Cookie Mate—Make Him a Reality! [EXPERT]

He is sweet and yummy, and you can bite his head off if you get mad at him!

Many have their own personal laundry list of qualities for the "ideal mate." Some of the items on the laundry list might include: loyal, kind, attractive, generous or successful. The technical term for meeting our laundry list is called the self-ideal-perception consistency. But what happens when our date does not meet all of the requirements on our laundry list?

How To Get Your Relationship To Sizzle [EXPERT]

How To Get Your Relationship To Sizzle [EXPERT]

How to create a "sizzler" rather than a "fizzle out"

At the risk of sounding like I’m going back to caveman times, the secret of a true sizzler is when a man is in his masculine and a woman is in her feminine (your "core energy").  Relationships are like batteries....if you put them into a TV remote control the wrong way around, they are NOT going to work.  They need that spark!  For the men, this means not being afraid of taking charge and taking care of your lady.  For the ladies, don't be afraid of using your femininity; we all know how to do it, but don't do it often enough.
