The dos and don'ts of Game Day dating.

Jason, Ross, Pete, and John all had a lot to say about this matter, so I'm glad I asked! The art of … Read More

Oh! That explains it- we’re all getting bad advice!
I was looking online at what the dating rules are to see if I am following them at all. And by the way... I’m totally not! I am going to give a few of them a shot though. My friend Robin talked about “the Rules” book and noted different areas that she does or doesn’t follow them in her blog. I actually think she does a little better than I do.

Besides, people are way too unpredictable to round up and throw in the same pile. What works on Date Y may send Date X running for the hills. Literally. We've had dates fake an impromptu marathon jog … Read More
Ten rules to help smooth the road with your new beau. Common sense? Yes. Commonly practiced? No.
The beginning of a relationship can be a tricky course to navigate.
