Why You Love People Who Can’t Love You Back
Question: I respect your advice but I believe that "you can't love another person until you love yourself" mumbo jumbo is misguided and I think creates more problems in relationships than it solves. The whole point of being in a relationship is to love the other person. That love is not supposed to be directed at yourself but toward the person you [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
How Can I Make My Boyfriend Physically Attracted To Me?
Question: I know this sounds crazy. My boyfriend is not physically attracted to me. We met on an internet dating site. Our first in person was in a coffee shop and as soon as I drove up to meet him he gave me this terribly disapproving look. I immediately felt unattractive and inadequate although I’m in great shape and dress attractively. I was [...]
Ex Will Not Respond – Time To Move On?
Anyone who has tried to get an ex back knows too well that this is not something you can achieve with a single action or random number of actions. It takes time, and sometimes it’s one step forward and two backwards. And other times you feel like you’re getting mixed signals. Many tend to give up after just one or two attempts and others [...]
On-And-Off Again Relationship – Time To Give Up?
I receive email questions from men and women, young and old, and from all walks of life who are in a relationship that on-again and off-again. Both people are in some ways hurting each other but the attraction and chemistry is so strong that they can’t imagine life without the other. It is as if they're locked in what I call “madness for [...]
Do Guys Lose Interest If You Reveal Too Much?
Question: I read your blog: The "Rules" and Playing Dating Mind Games. While I agree with some things you say, I do not think that women should be open and forthcoming in the first few dates. I’ve been out on great first few dates with a number of great guys but nothing that lasted for more than 3- 4 dates. The last guy I went out with was [...]
Help! I’m Losing My Boyfriend – What Should I Do Pt.1
Question: My boyfriend and I have been together a good 5 years. But the last one and half years have been really hard on both of us. I started to sense that he was checking out of the relationship by noticing small things like I was the only one who called, the only one who made plans for the weekends, the only one who initiated talks on our [...]
If Someone Loved You They Would Change For You
Experts agree that the reasons we so easily choose the “wrong people” are varied and complex. After a lifetime with automatic pilot set on “seeking acceptance” and working hard to get people to love you, you may be so accustomed to offering up who you are and your power to win acceptance and love that you are not choosing well. The [...]
Help! I Like Him But Not Sexually Attracted
Question: I' m seeing a guy who has almost all the qualities I look in a man but he is too nice and too needy. At first I enjoyed the attention. He was always buying me stuff, always attentive and there for me but now everything he does gets on my nerves. I want a strong and confident guy with a backbone but it seems that these days all the guys [...]
