manslations

Here’s a new one. Lynne is wondering what’s going on when a guy asks if you want to get married…in the future? Like…ever? I guess that’s the question. And TWO younger guys have asked virtually the same thing recently. What gives? Oh, I’ll TELL you what gives, people. But first, Lynne’s question: What does it [...]

A reader named Charlotte has a crush on her local bartender (what is it with those guys and crushes? Is it the fact that he washes the dishes? The access to quality alcohol? What is it?) She’s got an idea for a Valentine’s Day gift, and she’s wants to play that game show that’s been [...]

Ladies, today I’ve got a special treat for you to start the week. My blogging compatriot, the Dating Goddess over at “Adventures in Delicious Dating after 40” is releasing a series of e-books, and I got a sneak peek at the first one, pre-release. Yeah, I’m cool like that. Jealous? You know you are. We [...]

Simple question here today. What’s WRONG with me!!? No, no, not ME, our requester. (Believe me, I know what’s wrong with ME.) She’s been re-singled for three years, and nothing. Nobody’s taking the bait. What gives? Let’s help her out, ladies, shall we? Ok Jeff whats wrong with me!!! I have been single now for [...]

Sammy is trying to suss out what was going on with her man when she starting talking about having a one-on-one relationship. In fact, when pressed, he actually said, “I’m not going to answer.” What the hey? Is she pushing him away by pressing on this? Should she go along with it? Let’s find out [...]

Got a question from Amber about…well, it’s about how to get dumped a little better. She’s tired of these guys — guys with whom she’s spent some significant amount of time — pulling the ol’ Fade on her.  Otherwise known as “The ol’ Jeff Mac.”  Yes, yes, I used to be a Fader. Or “coward” [...]

She’s moved to a new town, but right before she left she kinda-sorta  fell for a guy back home. Aw, crap. Hate it when that happens. And now, she’s trying to figure out if there’s something there, or are they just lonely? Let’s manslate this bad mammajamma, shall we? Can I still say “bad mammajamma” [...]

Hey everybody! My pal, author of all things erotic, Rachel Kramer Bussel, has graciously invited me to read at her monthly reading series, “In the Flesh.” It’s mostly erotica, smut, and other things that will probably make me blush in a “should we call the paramedics, or what?” sort of way. As for me, I [...]

A reader named Anxious is, uh, anxious. Man, what a lucky break that is, huh? If she anxious was named “totally relaxed” it would just be weird, right? Huh? Huh? Ok, here’s the thing. She’s just started dating a guy and she really likes him. Trouble is, she’s not the only one who likes him. [...]

We’ve talked about men being intimidated by strong women before, but here’s a case when…well, it might just be true. Or he might just be bailing out on her. I’ll give her an easy way to tell the difference. Nichole has got it together, and her (younger) boyfriend says he doesn’t think that HE does. [...]
