Hugh Grant, God love him, is the Prince Charming of RomCom's. And the latest, Did You Hear About The Morgans, co-starring Sarah Jessica Parker, looks sure to please.

Just like that character, real-life Hughey admits to having relationship difficulties off-screen. The culprit? Golf. 

"I'm obsessed and it's destroying my life," he says. "Golf is an addiction."

Apparently it's so bad that he gets out of bed in the middle of the night to practice his swing in front of the mirror. Not something that would help keep a bed-mate around, for sure. What Golf Can Tell You About … Read More

Recently,  I've been getting messages from readers wanting to know why men stop calling without an explanation. This is a huge component of a single girl's dating life, so let's address it!

In my experience, I find that if a man disappears for good, it's because of one of two reasons. They are:

Chances are, if you overlook the media image and peek into the next Sunday morning service, you'll find someone who encompasses the following qualities. Women Really Do Like Nice Guys

I'm a happy woman who is single and enjoying her life.
