So you've found out that your spouse loves someone else. What can you do to win him or her back?
You suspected it long before you knew it for sure.
Your spouse changed but you couldn’t quite explain the changes in a way that seemed to make sense to anyone else. You thought that you were imagining things, being insecure. Then you began to vacillate, worrying that you must be right but telling yourself that surely you aren’t. When you asked questions, the answers seemed a little too slick, too rehearsed. Sometimes your questions hit harder and your spouse reacted with anger or sarcasm, telling you that you’re paranoid.

If you are over 30 and single, you have certainly heard the question, “Why aren’t you married?” There is an subtle undercurrent that goes with the question and you may interpret their prodding into your love life as if they are saying “What is wrong with you?” or “I can’t believe someone like you is still single!”
How many relationship rules have you heard in your life? They're rubbish. All of them.
How many relationship rules have you heard in your life? Too many to count, I’d bet.
“Wait three days before calling.”
“Laugh at his jokes and act very interested.”
“Tell him you have plans (even when you don’t) and act disinterested.”
“Don’t drink too much, talk about your ex, or have sex on the first date.”
The underlying message in all of these rules is “ignore what you want and who you really are and play a role that’s not really you.”
When you find yourself feeling resentful and angry at someone, hurt feelings are often the cause.
Dear Readers,
Due to an overwhelming response with emails after my article/blog “Sleeping with the Enemy,” I decided to write in a different format. I received 183 letters from people all over the U.S. (the article was posted in Chicago as well as the East Coast), and I found myself feeling limited and unhelpful with my template, explaining I was not authorized to give out individual advice. I decided to take a letter from one of my readers, change the names, and post it here for all of you.

Are you a single mom taking care of the kids and a live in boyfriend? Day care is safer and safer.
Right now in the United States for the first time there are more single families than married families—it's close with single mom families running at 51%. Some of these women are living with men who are not working. The benefit is that the men stay home with the kids, while the women work.
Will Smith was interviewed a while back and he talked about his reason for his successful marriage.
In an interview with Will Smith awhile back, he talked about the secret behind his successful marriage. He said that hard times in any marriage were inevitable and that, if divorce was an option, some difficulty or another would eventually be enough to bring it down. But for Will and Jada, divorce is not an option.
Because divorce is not an option for them, when the hard times come along, they work it out. But to have a happy marriage—not just an enduring one—there’s more to it than that.
If you're giving off masculine energy, it can impede your ability to attract a man.
More than ninety percent of the women who take the Dating With Dignity D-Factor, Date-Ability Assessment are shocked to know that more than forty percent of their total available positive, “date me” energy is vibrating at low levels. Most importantly, these low energy levels are broadcasting messages that, in fact, cause men to move away from you as a potential partner and ultimately report to their friends and family, “there was no chemistry,” “she was “intimidating” or, she seemed, “aloof.”
Unavailable men love you but available, single men don't. There's a pretty simple reason.
Unavailable men love you but available, single men don't. There's a pretty simple reason.
I have many coaching clients who tell me that they have great friendships with men but don't get asked out very often; if at all. They are dating in their 40s, 50s and beyond, and this has been a pattern for them throughout their lives.
This "married men love me but I can't get a date" situation was the story of my life before I married at 47. Looking back at my experience, as well as that of my clients, I can see these two scenarios:
1. You talk to men and they seem to like you, but none ask you out.
Is finding your soul mate as difficult as finding a pot of gold? Dating is it luck or destiny?
It’s Saint Patrick’s Day soon. Many of us go out and celebrate with our friends. If you’re single sometimes you wonder if it is all luck when it comes to dating. How are you attracted to someone? What makes them attractive to you? What makes you attractive to them? How do you find your special someone in the first place? Is it pure chance? Is she my soul mate? Is he my knight in shining armor?
