Should emotional consent be talked about in the same way as physical consent when dating new people?  Often singles meet someone they like and go with the flow without saying where they want things to end up. They worry that if they push the issue, they’ll jinx it and drive the other person away.  They go on dates and have sex without having ‘the’ conversation. It may go well for a...

I see way too many single women waste time on men who are happy to spend time with them but don't ever want to take things any further.

Not every man you meet or go out with will want to make you happy (which is a huge red flag). Th...

Why do women say that they want to meet a great guy, then end up liking the bad boys?

I love the language we use when we talk about love - we say we fell in love, that we are madly in love or even crazy in love!
