Riding in Cars with Boys

Posted on March 22, 2010 at 9:05am 0 Comments 0 Likes

Disclaimer: This is a woman to woman practical advice session.

If you want to know what a man is thinking take a ride with him in the car. It doesn't even have to be a long distance ride, in about thirty minutes you'll find out almost anything you want to know. Things you never knew about him that you've been trying to figure out for years; things you… Continue

Can We Talk?!

Posted on March 4, 2010 at 2:00pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

I am not a texter. I will send a text as a means of communicating pertinent information, like "what time should I be ready?" or "my flight lands at 9:15." I am not one to carry on a full fledged, thirty minute, conversation (if that's what you want to call it) through texting. So imagine the shock and dismay I felt once I discovered that this is the way that people are dating now. The last couple of times I was asked out on a date with a complete stranger, it was via text. My reply:…

Disclaimer: Every once in a while, If I can, I like to give some practical advice to my female readers that they may be able to use in their everyday lives. This is one of those posts.

Traveling with a guy for the first time can be exhausting. My ex-husband and I didn't have a honeymoon (how ironic), but I have been on mini-weekend, road trips with men that I have dated. The first time I took such a trip I was dating this guy that was so sexy I needed a change of…

The Problem with Proposals

Posted on February 25, 2010 at 8:55am 0 Comments 0 Likes

During dinner he kept fidgeting, and shifting in his chair. He left the table at least twice in the middle our meal. I knew what he was up to, act surprised I kept telling myself. Dinner was over, and he asked for the check. Okay, here it comes. I looked him straight in his eyes. He gave me a wink. He paid the bill and we exited the restaurant. Okay. He drove down to the beach. We parked, I took my shoes off, he didn't, he would never do that, and we walked down to…

Sometimes the energy at my house is to high. I have a 9yr old, 3yr old who will be 4 in 3 days, and a 2-1/2 year old. The two youngest think they run the house.

thanks for the friend request! I totally know how you feel about the control thing. I'm trying to live as best I can without having any of my belongings & sleeping on my dad's floor but I feel so bound by the fact that the ex still has everything, and is maintaining total control about all of it when I'm the one who left! ugh. so frustrating! I left because I was so sick of being constantly controlled, and i feel like it's even worse now that I'm away from him!

Anyway girlie, stay strong- we'll get through this! I keep looking at it this way- even if he keeps everything, and I walk away with nothing in the end, at least I know I didn't lose the best damn thing that's ever happened to me.
