Why does the end of a passionate short-term romance sometimes feel more devastating than a longer-term relationship? It’s because short-term romances are like fireworks—explosive and exciting—only to fizzle out soon after. We get addicted to the feeling of intensity they give us, and feel empty when they disappear. In today’s episode, I’ll show you the best way to move on from a short-term romance...

It’s so annoying. You finally decide you like someone. You tell your friends how excited you are. You even allow yourself to imagine them as “future life partner” material.

It’s like the universe knows when you’ve met an amazing person, and decides to...

Have you ever felt insecure about something that’s happened with your partner and got yourself worked up in your mind? I have. Many times. And when this has happened to me I know I’ve not brought up the issue in a productive way. In fact, I’ve often approached the subject in a way I later regretted. What about you? Have you said something you wish you hadn’t? Reacted in a way you wish you could ta...

So this wasn’t the episode we’d planned to release this week . . .  But an online conversation turned into something so unexpected that we scrapped the original plan and recorded something new, because I couldn’t wait to talk about it. The episode this week is all about bravery and kindness, and my goal is that by the end of it, you will understand and be able to relate to men a little better.  Yo...

You can set your watch to it. They flake or break up with you . . . you spend weeks — in fact, months — hurting and getting over them, and just as you realize you no longer think about them all the time and begin to feel happy again, you get the text. “Hey, how you doing?” Does this sound familiar? I suspect it does . . . So what is this phenomenon? Why do they always come back? What does it mean?...

Have you dated someone you find so amazing and impressive that you almost start to feel not good enough for them? Maybe it’s their attractiveness or intelligence . . . or perhaps it’s their success, wealth, or status (such as the example in today’s episode) that has you feeling lucky whenever they turn their attention to you. Whatever it might be, the reaction we often have to this feeling is high...
