- by Jennifer on February 7th, 2012
This may come as a bit of a surprise to many of you but I’m not a big fan of Valentine’s Day. But why? It’s a day for the celebration of love, right? The fact that it’s crammed into a 24-hour period coinciding with a retail marketing blitz after the lull of post-Christmas sales is purely coincidental, I’m sure. Click here to read more…
A Man’s POV How it Makes Me Feel When… I’m Pretending That I Like Her Just For Sex
- by Jennifer on January 11th, 2012
Tragically, as I’ve gotten older I’ve developed this pesky little thing some of you might know as a conscience. Back in the day, I was able to have sexual relations with women by any means necessary. I lied. I cheated. I lied and cheated. I was selfish. I was prosperous. Life was good! Click here to read more…
A Man’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… She Keeps Texting Me and I’m Not Interested
- by Jennifer on December 14th, 2011
Contrary to popular belief, I’m actually a pretty nice guy. I’m even nice when I’m mean. That’s why it’s so complicated when a woman refuses to appreciate my sincere efforts at being a jerk. Take for example, the woman who keeps texting after I have made it abundantly clear that I’m not interested. Click here to read more…
A Man’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… My First Thanksgiving Dinner with Her Family and I Don’t Like Them
- by Jennifer on November 21st, 2011
Tis the season, that magical time of year when I am forced into confined spaces with family members I never communicate with and strategically avoided the last 364 days of the year. We put our differences aside and unite for the sole purpose of consuming unhealthy and equally irresponsible portions of food and alcohol in between watching football and avoiding eye contact.

Divorce blows. Even people who have gone through the easiest of divorces can agree on that. The other person is a (insert your own colorful name here) and you can’t wait to begin your life without the ex dragging you down. The process of dating after divorce is different for everyone, but one thing is certain—it’s better to take things slow, rather than jumping in with both feet spread wide open.

By J.R. Reed aka Sexandthesingledad
Relationships are all about give and take, which means there are times when arguing will occur. There are some things that are definitely worth hashing out and others that aren’t. Pick your battles wisely, because for some reason it seems that fighting over the little, insignificant things are what will ultimately kill a relationship. Click here to read more…
A Man’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… Her Parents Don’t Like Me Because I’m Black
- by Jennifer on June 15th, 2011
Not everyone in “post racial” America is post racial. I guess not everyone received the officially unofficial memo notifying them they are no longer allowed to judge people based on anything other than the content of their character. Of course, for the most part it really doesn’t matter if some stranger doesn’t like me because of the color of my skin. It is what it is. That is, until those strangers happen to be my girlfriend’s parents. Click here to read more…
A Man’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… She Expects Me to Clean Up After Her
- by Jennifer on June 6th, 2011
I’ve lived with 1 ¾ women in my lifetime. Technically, I’ve only officially lived with one woman. Meaning we both had our name on the lease, each owned a key and we could come and go as we pleased. Well, she could come and go as she pleased. I could come and go with her permission. That is if I planned to sleep in the bed relative to the couch that evening. Click here to read more…

By J.R. Reed aka Sexandthesingledad
We met online, had a few dates and she told me I was the most amazing man she had ever met. She adored the way I eat cookies (I swear I eat them the regular way—one bite at a time) and she would let me cook for her five nights a week if I wanted to. She said I was her dream come true. If that’s the case, why just a few weeks later is she trying to turn me into someone else? Click here to read more…
A Man’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… She Takes Too Long
- by Jennifer on May 11th, 2011
By J.R. Reed aka Sexandthesingledad
It’s 5:35 P.M. Five minutes after we were supposed to leave and she’s barely stepping out of the shower? “I’m O.K.,” I think to myself. “Instead of being there 15 minutes early, we’ll be right on time. No big deal.”
It doesn’t matter what the event is, she’s going to be late. Of course, the bigger the function, the longer it takes to get ready. This can work to your favor, or it could backfire. You have to take into consideration the extenuating circumstances of the day. Click here to read more…
