• Take a deep breath and focus on your relationship as a parent to your two children. Often a man, especially a single father, looks for a mother-figure for their child. Blending families at this point comes with a lot of baggage. He has legal issues to deal with and needs to clean up his house before he can be in a relationship with someone. Regardless of his age, he has a full plate right now. There will be other men who will be happy to meet your wonderful children. You've attracted one guy, there will be many others around the corner. Stay optimistic. Julie Spira SEE MORE

• I'm sorry that you're feeling hurt, but be happy that your relationship lasted less than a month. Otherwise you'd probably be healing from not just the heartbreak of a long-term relationship, but you most likely would have had sex with him and will have to withdraw from the physical as well as the emotional connection. Guys like to look at all their options. Whether you slept with him or not is not the issue. Most likely his new gal-pal doesn't want competition. At the end of the day, it's hard to stay friends.

• Hi Dolby, Often members of websites are not "active" or paying members. Perhaps their membership expired or they are in a relationship now. To maximize your membership on Match, look at the 5 Daily Matches that you receive via email. Make sure to write to at least one of them if you feel there is anything in common. Also, keep your email introductions short. You can also try a free online dating site such as OkCupid or Plenty of Fish and see if that works for you. SEE MORE

• First of all, congratulations on your engagement. You don't know if it's a flash romance or the real deal until you spend more time together. Many couples get engaged quickly and end up happily married. Others get engaged quickly and it doesn't work out. My suggestion is to give it time and look at your engagement period as a courtship period. Take time to get to know your fiance and decide if he's the real deal and if your feelings can last through multiple seasons. A long engagement is definitely in order. If it doesn't work out, don't feel badly. Return the ring and move on knowing you gave this relationship a chance. SEE MORE

  POSTED ON: Am I being too paranoic?

• First of all, I'm sorry about your relationship ending. When we fall in love, we hope that it will last forever. Unfortunately, more relationships end prior to marriage. I have a saying, "Every relationship serves a purpose, but is limited." Be happy for the first 6 months of your relationship and focus on what you learned from it. Being lower on the totem pole than golfing and his friends can lead to depression. It's time to move on and be open to the possibilities of meeting someone new. He just isn't treating you well, so why should you sign up for another 7 month term? SEE MORE

Great video Ross and Nicole! I'm siding towards Nicole on this one, but I know I'm in the minority.

I absolutely love this segment! Yes, meeting someone at the Apple store is a great suggestion. I actually met a guy there a year and a half ago, which inspired me to write a post called, "Finding Love and Apple a Day." It's a low pressure way to talk to someone after they finish their One-to-One training about their iPad, iPhone or how they liked their training session.

I've got to chime in here. I think it's terrible that anyone gets sprayed with mace for any reason other than being attacked. As it relates to who keeps the ring, personally I believe that if the man ends the engagement he loses his rights to the ring, if the woman ends the engagement she should return the ring, and if it was ended mutually the ring should go back as well. If it was a family heirloom, it doesn't matter who did the dumping, the ring should go back. However there are actually laws that vary per state, which I wrote about in Chapter 16 of my book. Here goes: In Montana, the ring is a gift. The woman keeps the ring even if they don't make it to the altar. In Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, the ring goes back to the donor, regardless of who did the dumping, and in California, the ring is considered an "implied conditional" gift, which means if the man breaks the engagement he loses his rights to the ring. If the woman ends the engagement, she gives the ring back. Regardless of these laws that were in effect in 2008, you should do what you feel is the right thing as it relates to returning an engagement ring. There are sites that specifically cater to selling rings from jilted fiances. At the end of the day, it's sad when your engagement ends, ring or not.

I agree. Even if you aren't single, Facebook has changed the way we relate and communicate on a daily basis. While driving on the freeway, I see billboards from companies asking drivers to "like" them on Facebook with their URL. When I go to parties, people ask, "Are you on Facebook?" and "Can I send you a friend's request?" It's part of our daily vocabulary now.
