Blind Date – Ugh

Posted on October 26th, 2009 | 29 comments

I’ve been on some bad blind dates in my day – women who fudged their age by 10 years, trimmed their weight by 50 pounds, turned out wanting a sexy arrangement (yeah, that kind of sexy arrangement.) But none prepared me for one I endured at Starbucks this past weekend. Trust me, I’ve never downed [...]

Breastfeeding Your Man and Blind Date Sex – While Kids are in the Next Room

Posted on March 11th, 2009 | 57 comments

Sorry. I couldn’t make the post title shorter if I tried. Some single moms are blogging about sexy blind date hookups, with eyebrow-raising twists. I guess it’s all in the name of single moms can be sexual creatures, too! Hey, I agree with that. Lord knows, I’ve had sex with a few single mothers. And [...]

Rebound Sex Coffee Date

Before we even met for coffee, 34 year-old SoCal Divorced Hottie let me know that she wasn’t ready for a serious relationship. She was merely dipping her toe in the dating pool, looking for something low key.

While promoting Mary Pols’s new book, Accidentally on Purpose, SingleMomSeeking’s Rachel Sarah recently blogged about the event that led to Mary’s child:
Then, there’s this one-night stand with an adorable but jobless guy ten years her junior — and, oops, they didn’t use a condom.
Oops? Excuse me, but I think that qualifies for more than an [...]

An Online Dating Success Story

Posted on April 22nd, 2008 | 7 comments

Who says online dating doesn’t work? I admit, I was one of the nay-sayers. In eight years of divorce, I tried some of the most popular online dating sites – match.com, yahoo personals, eharmony, chemistry.com, salon.com, nerve.com, OKCupid, everything but matchmaking by DNA. The experience left me jilted. I became wary of online dating expert [...]

When Online Dating Doesn’t Work, Use Your DNA

Posted on March 28th, 2008 | 10 comments

Dear David,
online dating isn’t working for me. I’ve tried different dating sites for over a year now, with no luck. Granted, I go on plenty of coffee dates, but I haven’t even come close to finding Mr. Right. Is it me, or am I correct in thinking internet dating doesn’t work? I need your advice! [...]
