A good friend of mine recently confided in me his frustration with his man whore lifestyle. It seems he was now back with his on and off again girlfriend of several years. I don’t want to reveal his identity so I will leave out a lot of specifics. After a little back and forth he […]
This is a topic I have written about extensively in the past, but since I consider myself a divorce advocate I wanted to re-visit it. The holidays are rough…hang in there guys! I wanted to write this piece because I really think a lot of the “Advice for Divorced People” websites, books and other […]
I am launching a new category on this blog: The Hall of Fame. Anyone I place in the online dating Hall of Fame will be a person who expresses the most extreme traits of an already established archetype. To protect this man’s identity for the purposes of this article I will simply call him, “The […]
