Why Men Get Jealous Over Sex & Women Over Emotions
While it has been noted that women cannot digest emotional infidelity and men fail to accept sexual infidelity, new research has suggested that this difference in jealousy goes beyond gender differences. The researchers said that such differences have more to do with how two people are attached in a relationship. Research has documented that [...]
Your Ex Confused About His/Her Feelings For You?
Lately, I'm getting more and more emails from men and women who say they've managed to move things forward to a point where they are in regular contact with their ex, and things even seem to be heading towards getting back together. But for some unknown reason, their ex is still confused about how they feel and what they want. Many of the emails [...]
What’s The Right Amount Of Contact With Your Ex?
I'm always looking for ways to help as many people as possible clarify what's going on in their relationship dynamic. A question and answer discussion on my post Ex Came Back With No Contact – NC Works inspired me to shade a little more light on a common dynamic in many "get back ex" situations. Bruce: NC worked for me. I went NC for 3 weeks [...]
Will My Ex-Boyfriend Contact Me?
Question: My boyfriend of 7 years (we’ve been together since college), told me he was breaking up because we do not want the same things.

Question: I bumped into my ex-girlfriend and she’s even more beautiful than when we were dating. We had a mutual breakup so there were no bad feelings between us.

Love Mistake No.1- You Played Yourself
I want to say right from the beginning that I’m one of those people who believes that we don’t “look for and find love" but rather, the love already in us attracts the love of another. But for the sake of this article, I’ll go with the common notion that men and women “look for and find love". Other than the flawed approach to [...]
Help! I’m Losing My Boyfriend – What Should I Do? Pt. 2
Continues from Pt 1 When we’re threatened with the possibility of losing someone we love, we often don't see the things in front of us including how our own words and actions may be more self-destructing than helpful. This is especially true when you feel like what you worked hard to build (and keep) is slipping through your fingers and [...]
Why Do I Still Think About My Ex?
Question: I broke up with my ex more than a year ago but I still think of him. I know that I don't regret breaking up with him because he cheated not once but twice. The second time with my best friend. The first few months after our breakup were particularly hard. I cried a lot and also thought of him ex all the time. he was always in my dreams [...]
