Why It Doesn’t Matter When You Go “All The Way”
That’s right, I said it. For as long as I can remember, there has always been a terrible stereotype about girls who “put out” too soon.

This is a big one. Many people put up walls to protect themselves from getting hurt, but you could be keeping out the ONE person who isn’t going to act like the rest. Isn’t that what you want to find? It’s easy to group together entire genders when we’ve had some negative experiences – but…
Read MoreHow to compliment a woman and not get ignored
In the age of social media, women are flooded with compliments on a daily basis.

For anyone attempting “dating” in the 21st century, there is an overwhelming question of whether or not our generation actually appreciates the qualities many of us were taught to possess by our parents, grandparents, or hell – even Disney movies. In an age that seems to be overrun by the self-absorbed, those who are perpetual…
Read MoreCreative Dating: You can do better than “Dinner and a movie.”
*Disclaimer: The following paragraphs mostly apply to taking out a girl that you’ve got real interest in, not just a fling or someone you can’t see yourself with for very long. I think it’s safe to say that “dinner and a movie” has been the go-to date plan since, well, movies were invented. Don’t get…
Read More(Video) Why Men and Women Can’t Be “Just Friends”
This is an often discussed topic among men and women – can they just be friends? Typically, women will say yes, but men will say no. In this short video, I explain my opinion about where and why this separation occurs and why I side with the men’s position, that being just friends, is…
