The Six Men to Avoid at all Costs

In dating there are times when we simply need to walk away at the first sign of a red flag.

Watch out ladies: They could end up being a huge waste of your time and possibly even end up hurting you. Here are the the top 6 men to avoid like the plague (and why you're attracted to them!)

What to do when your boyfriend ignores you

If you clicked into this post, you’re in trouble, honey. Maybe your man and you are in a fight. Or maybe he’s sulking and you don’t know why. Maybe he’s just trying to get your attention.

Here’s exactly what to do when your boyfriend ignores you. Read more

Question: Why Won’t My Boyfriend Have Sex With Me?

  Reader Frustrated in More Ways Than One writes, I am 26 and I live with my boyfriend, who is 27. My boyfriend is gentle and kind and loving. He will get up in the middle of the night to get me water if I don't feel good. He's my best friend. He wasn't always so sure that he loved me, though, and because of that, I doubt myself from time to time. It's only very seldom, because I honestly do know he loves me. He may have been unsure at first but I know he is sure now. But, because he doubted before, I doubt now. I never fully trust when he says he won't leave, because he thought he wanted to once. (We broke up for 3 months last year bc he said he was no longer in love with me.) I have no doubt in my mind though that we both love each other. I hate to even complain because I am so happy with so much of what we have, except our sex life. He is the best I've ever had... When I can have it. He never wants to have sex! I have actually begged. He refuses to even say there is a problem. Every time I bring it up, he gets very frustrated and storms out. He doesn't ever act that way, otherwise. He says "it's just not on my mind. Just ask me." The problem with that is, I do ask him. A lot. Multiple times a day. For days. Then I feel so defeated. I start to feel ashamed. I don't even want him to see me naked anymore. Then, he gets hurt that I don't want him to see me. Is there something I can say or do to help us have a somewhat active sex life again? I'm starting to resent him. Read more

What Do Men Want In A Woman?

What is it that men desire in a woman? If a man could describe his perfect woman, what would she be like? These are just two of the questions women have been looking for answers to for generations, and to be brutally honest, they are questions that don’t have an actual answer. You see, despite what some “experts” tell you, there isn’t one type of woman all men go for. Read more

My boyfriend’s addicted to sports! Help!

A complaint I hear from so many women is that their men are addicted to sports and it’s ruining their relationships. At first, I thought this was an exaggeration. But, I’ve learned that it’s not. Sports can feel like another woman when you’re in a relationship with an avid sports watcher. They’re always on, they’re always getting your man’s attention and they’re always wearing tighter pants than you! I’m actually a fan of some sports, in limited doses, so I’ve never fully suffered through is-my-man-kinda-cheating-on-me-with-sports syndrome. But, here’s what I’d do if I were going through it.
