Relationship advice isn't easy and sometimes the pros mess up.
There is a boatload of people giving advice on the interweb these days. Some of them are doctors. Some of them are the offspring of advice royalty.

Dave Evans, an online dating industry consultant calls the ads "an eye opener." eHarmony's rejections were "never a secret, but people didn't realize that they were doing this," he says.
One ad directly addresses eHarmony's stated … Read More
The ready-to-fall-in-love author dedicates herself to one year of online dating.
It was one of my first online dates. We were slogging through the early stages of an awkward conversation over coffee; I confessed that I was new to this process and wasn't very good at it. "If I ever get good at this," the guy replied, "it'll be time to give it up."
It was late autumn. At 37, I found myself single again after the demise of a seven-year relationship, and the possibilities of Internet dating seemed infinite. I was captivated by the idea that I could post a profile of myself for anyone in the world to see, that … Read More
