I stumbled upon two ex girlfriends on Facebook recently. No, we didn’t Facebook poke each other, write on each other’s walls, or send messages. I don’t even think they saw my profile.
Both ex girlfriends simply inspired me, in different ways.
One ex was someone I had sought out on Facebook, hoping to reconnect. We always got [...]
When my teen daughter and I toured colleges on the east coast last week, she saw a side of me I don’t often share with my kids.
I flirted with women like crazy.
Don’t worry, I wasn’t obnoxious or rude. I simply made eye contact, initiated conversations, tossed in some double entendres, and chatted women up.

My teen daughter and I braved Chicago traffic to have lunch at one particular restaurant my mom raves about. Who knew getting into downtown on a Saturday afternoon would be so bumper-to-bumper hard? Not to mention, our GPS unit was on the fritz.

First of all, there’s more to attraction [...]

Just when I thought modern dating couldn’t get any worse, it goes and proves me wrong, ratcheting things down even lower.
I recently had a drunk date.
No, I wasn’t drunk. The woman was.
Before our date even started.
WTF?!
Look, I know two people can get tipsy on a date. A little laughter, a spilled martini, and pretty soon [...]
