A woman writing to the Daily Mail's advice columnist, Rowan Pelling, may find out the answer to that very question. In her letter to Pelling, she writes: The Frisky: 5 Friends You Don't Need

How to find that perfect set of couple friends for you and your main squeeze.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a happy couple must be in want of another happy couple to be B.F.F.s with.
Fred and Wilma had their Barney and Betty; Lucy and Ricky had their Ethel and Fred. It seems that for every dynamic couple, there exists an assumed want for a complementary pair of friends, who are also a couple.
The want is self-explanatory: "couples" friends reinforce each other's union and become a support system for the individual partners. Discovering people who enjoy not only your company, but your significant other's as well, affirms one's belief that his/her relationship … Read More
Hint: He's right under your nose and number one on your speed-dial.
Women always seem to ask me where all the good men are, as if these near-mythical dudes are hiding behind bushes, chained up in some vampire's basement, or are just rare and elusive, like the snow leopard. Normally, I have to resist responding, "Maybe the good guys are just avoiding you." But the answer to this frequent, lovelorn lament is simple: The good men are right under your $#@% nose. And that's the damn truth. The Frisky: 5 Ways Women Try To Impress Men (And Why They Don't Work)
That's right, ladies. The good men you pine for are … Read More

You know that guy, the one who's not really your boyfriend, but isn't just a friend either? The one you hope will turn into something eventually, but who's dragging his feet when it comes to making a move?

Why ladies can't help their sensitivity and men can't help their aggression.
The more us ladies claw the corporate food chain, enjoy casual bedmates and brush up on our Sunday football stats, the more likely we are to think we can maneuver in this world just like men. With more beautiful bodies, of course. Women Are Confusing Flirts
After all, the old stereotypes of the sewing circle opposed to the hunter are just products of sophisticated socialization, no? We can be steely and cut-throat. We can be aggressive and unfeeling.

Some pronouns mean more than others.
My friend Leila came to visit from Arizona last Friday. We’ve known each other since freshman year at USC. I’ve seen her about 3 times per year, every year since graduation and still she—as well as everyone else from those days—says to me, "Your hair is so dark. Who’s doing your color these days?"
I said, "For the thousandth time, this is my natural color! This is what I really look like." I love that everyone from the west can’t seem to grasp that I would leave something natural. Maybe I was more of a follower back in college. (Here I … Read More

Reasons why it's great to have a man.
It's easy to forget why it's so great to be in a committed relationship with someone. Recently we were reminded just what it is about having a boyfriend that can be so much fun.
1. No making-plans hassle. Say good-bye to laboring over where you are going to go and what you are going to do and how much it's going to cost. The top benefit of having a boyfriend is that you're just as content staying in watching movies or cooking dinner, just doing something, anything together.
2. Instant affection all the time. At any moment, you don't have to wonder who … Read More
