When He Says You Could Do Better

Riley’s ex is something of a bad boy. No job. Bit of a partier (including the Devil’s Dandruff itself, cocaine.) He says all kinds of nice things, but then says that he thinks that SHE could do better. Is that ever the truth? I’ll answer in a minute. (Hint: The answer is no. Crap. That [...]

Post-Breakup “Friends with Benefits”

A reader named Sara is looking for some no-strings-attached, no-holds-barred, post-breakup nooky. And other hyphenates. She and the ol’ ex-er took the first step (i.e. the hot-t-t sex, if you know what I mean…oh hold on…that wasn’t a euphemism…eh, ok, so you know what I mean, fine.) and all seemed, at various moments, either hunky [...]

Manslations News: Manslator Engaged!!

And not like, “Tractor beam — engaged!” or other mechanical possibilities. I’m engaged to be married! I popped the question while Liz and I were on a short weekend away in New Mexico (as the sun was going down over the city of Albuquerque — awww, yeah) and, love of my life that she is, [...]

When He Boomerangs on Love

Very unfortunate situation here today — Sintija just done had her heart broke. She’s wondering — how is it humanly possible that a man switched gears as quickly as her man did? Let’s see what we can do for her. She writes: Hi. Found your site just today some 30min ago.As i spend all day [...]

Did She Blow it By Moving too Fast?

Today, a reader named Nawor is finally getting together with a man with whom she’s shared some type of crush for seven years. He was just getting out of something else, something messy (involving an expensive dog shared with a horrible ex, it seems) and Nawor is wondering if getting together too quickly has cost [...]

Headline: No Manslating on Memorial Day!

Hey all, Yes, there’s no crying in baseball (though if you had ever seen me in little league, you’d have to wonder why) and there’s no Manslating on Memorial Day. Well, I’ve got the day off today. And so I’m going to take the day OFF today. Aw yeah. I hope that you…it seems in [...]

When Life’s Getting Him Down…and He Changes

Ok, we’ll end the week with two young ‘uns, having some trouble. This is a pretty long request, but the last paragraph (excerpted below, with the complete text at the end of the post) asks the question. Two 19 year olds, they’ve been together 4 years(!) and now that they’re at different schools, and now [...]

Happy New Year!

Dear Manslatees, Man, have I missed you people. Looks like the comments have been breeding like mosquitoes in a little algae-filled pond of internet relationship information (pfft! Tell ME I can’t craft a simile!) I’m back from all my holiday travel nonsense, including a severely delayed flight to Albuquerque from which one of the passengers [...]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey everybody. I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! And if you’re not from the States…um…well, try to imagine a time when your ancestors were having a really nice dinner with their scantily clad neighbors before, you, know…ahem…having some…err…land disputes with them. And then, flash forward a few hundred years…umm…and then eat a [...]

Manslations Reader Request: Is LA Lady in The Friend Zone? Can She Relocate?

Hey manslatees. A reader calling herself “LA Lady” has an age-old question. Flirty friends, but nothing more, and hey, she wants more! She writes: Hi Jeff, I love your web site and your sense of humor! Got any single brothers just like you lurking around???? My problem is one of mixed messages. I know this [...]
