One of the most common questions I get from readers is: "How soon long should I wait before having sex with someone new?" (Actually, truth be told, this question comes primarily from women. With few exceptions, for most men the answer to the question "How soon should you have sex?" is "How soon can I get it?")
Well kids, 2004 is finally here, and so many of love's mysteries have not been solved. Will J-Lo and Ben ever tie the knot? Will the Average Joe ever get the girl? Can wearing a perfume designed to make you smell like baked goods really attract the opposite sex? In the spirit of 2003's unsolved dating mysteries, I've pulled together some of the best and worst letters I received in 2003 to help you start 2004 on the right foot. Sure, some dating mysteries may never be solved, but in the meantime, have a little fun, kiss a few cuties and enjoy whatever the new year brings.
One of the most common questions I get from readers is how to get a boyfriend to the altar. For guys, getting engaged is a lot like buying a new car: It's a pretty scary decision to ponder, it's utterly terrifying when you actually get up the nerve to make the offer, and absolutely fabulous when you finally get to take her home.
Ever feel like you're the only single person left on the planet? Well, the good news is, you're not. And this week, it's all about enjoying the very best that single life has to offer, like always holding the remote control, spending as much money on shoes as you want to, or eating ALL of the Super Fudge Chunk right out of the carton.
Imagine you're smack if the middle of making love and you hear, "Uh, a little to the left there, buddy..." And it's not coming from your girlfriend.
We've all done it. We're smack in the middle of a ho-hum, so-so, not going anywhere relationship. But, we don't break up.
Every week I receive hundreds of letters from readers asking for dating advice. Some are strange. Some are sad. Most are problems we've all heard and experienced before: Cheating. Breakup Sex. Chorophobia. (Fear of dancing.) Here are some of my favorite letters of the last year. After all, if we forget our mistakes, we are doomed (doomed, darling!) to repeat them.
There's a new Dutch website http://www.dumpjeschatje.nl/ that's creating quite a buzz here in the States. Why? It offers so-appalling-they're-funny tips on how to dump your partner. The site suggests women tell their not-so-loved one they want a baby (um, that'll do it...) and recommends men buy their girlfriend underwear that is much too big. (Nothing quite kills romance like under-the-armpits granny panties in Extra Large.)
