Know Where to Look to Find the Right Partner
People say that it’s impossible to find the right partner these days. I say, where are you looking? When we were kids, my dad took me and my brother fishing. He taught us that if you’re not catching any good fish, move to a better spot. My dad’s street smart. I think he’d say that the same applies to find the right partner. If you’re looking for desirable – and you should be – look where desirable is. Where is that, you might ask? I’m thinking that there’s another question waiting to be answered first.

I Want a Jerry Springer Kind of Love?
Why oh why do we love bad boys? Why do we fixate on people who are not good for us? I say “Bad Boys,” but the same thing is true for toxic women. Has this ever happened to you? Is it happening now? If you had to describe your relationship, what words would you use? Companions, useful helpmates, friends, partners, confidantes? Passionate, involved, attached, warm, romantic? Dangerous, fiery, destructive, addictive, unhealthy, out of control? If your relationship falls under the last category then yeah, you know what I’m talking about. Immediately before I met my husband, I was involved with a toxic man. It was exciting! I was so infatuated…
