manslations

I’ve heard this one before. The guy does NOT want to meet the ‘rents. And he doesn’t want you to meet his either. What might this mean? Is it shame? Embarrassment? Selfishness? Uh…itchiness? A phobia of the word “mom”?  I don’t know what other possible reasons there might be. The point is, it happens, and [...]

Pretty common story — they met while he was in town for a conference. He says he doesn’t want a long-distance relationship…but he still wants to visit. Is this some kind of a protracted booty call? Or is he interested in more than he says he is? What IS this guy, anyway? Let’s see what [...]

What happens when your man suddenly “explodes” for seemingly insignificant things? Tess wants to know what this is, and why it keeps happening. Let’s find out what she’s working with, if and when it will stop, if it is serious, not serious, medium serious, or just over easy serious.
Hi Jeff!
Been reading you for a while [...]

Well, the title for this post isn’t really the big question that our requester, farah, has for me today. Her man’s still got some photos of the ex (not totally outrageous) and some pictures of her in his phone…naked (er…a little less un-outrageous.) She’s wondering what’s going on, and what she can do. Let’s get [...]

Hello all!
Well, Liz and I are back from the honeymoon, and boy was it WAY too short. Oh, you all know Liz, right? You know — my WIFE? (Still so weird and cool to say.) Some folks have requested some pictures. I’ll figure out a way to do that at some point, but here’s one [...]

I’m off to be wed, folks! It is time to take my lady fair out to the desert and en-wifen her.  We’re already in New Mexico even as we speak, where a little Gilbert & Sullivan will explain what’s gonna happen next.
We shall quickly be parsonified,
Conjugally matrimonified,
By a doctor of divinity,
Who is located in this [...]

Our intrepid requester, Lil (you seem intrepid, what can I tell you?) wants a standing call du bootay with this guy. He seems to be a little not-ok about the whole thing. How can she make things perfectly clear to him? (Hint: Don’t do a Nixon impression with the double peace signs, saying, “Let me [...]

Woohoo!!!

And let me just say that I’m glad I’m not posting my alternate headline, which would have been something more like:
Congratulations Fetal Position, in which I will be curled for yet another 4 years!
I’m sure you’ll agree, that just doesn’t have the same ring to it.
If you were rooting for the Mavericks, believe me, I [...]

Well, lucky for you, this manslation will not require that I actually GO to a dance floor. That’s always a big mistake for me. Not that I’m not, you know, awesome. Of course I am, how could I be otherwise? It’s just that…errr…I don’t want to make the other dancers feel bad. Yeah, that’s the [...]

Take your dramamine, grab something solid and hold on tight, people. Lyn has a flipflopper on her hands. He’s up-up-up…then down-down-down. She’s going loopy. She needs some encouragement. Let’s figure out what’s going on and give ‘er some, shall we?
I have dated this man for over 5 years. The relationship has about a 6 week [...]
