A Woman’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… I’m Dating In a New City

By Taylor Cast
When I moved to New York I was so done with dating men in Southern California. The vein Hollywood men, the childish Orange County guys, no thank you! I was through with it. I was often saying that the best men I met always seemed to be from the east coast so it was great that I was heading east! Well I ate my words. Men are men no matter where you go. A jerk is a jerk and a good man is a good man, geography doesn’t matter. Click here to read more…

When I read his text, I couldn’t believe it. He said, “I don’t see a future together.” WTF?
Everything had been going so perfectly, he was exactly what I’d been hoping I’d find someday. We liked everything about each other, our senses of humor were exactly alike and he was a perfect man. Our first date was practically a scene from a chick flick, engaging conversation, attraction and romance. Click here to read more…
A Woman’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… He Sees My Post Pregnancy Body

Terrifying screams, blood, fear and a whole lot of mind numbing pain… This isn’t taken from the script of a scary movie but a scene from the “miracle of life” in the delivery room.
As expectant parents, the birth of your child is an exciting time and the unpleasant changes in the woman’s body are just a part of the deal. On some level, both parents accept that any permanent changes to the woman’s body are a part of having a child.
In my situation, my ex-husband was supportive and not concerned about the impact pregnancy and childbirth would have on my body. It was just a part of the package. For nine months, a growing abdomen, breasts and ridiculously swollen ankles were givens. Click here to read more…
A Woman’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… He Left me for Another Woman

Let’s face it; we all prefer to be the dumper rather than the dumpee. When a boyfriend broke up with me, I fell into a pit of despair, holing up in bed, refusing to answer my phone, closing myself off from the world. I grieved. When I was the one in the driver’s seat calling for the end of the relationship, my heart had already healed; I was able to move on because I’d already had that emotional separation.

A Woman’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… I’m Dating a Man with Kids

I won’t lie; dating a man with kids can be tricky. Even difficult. After all, I didn’t start dating thinking “someday, I’m going to find a great divorced man with children and we’ll all live happily ever after.” Although, that might make an interesting fairy tale. Click here to read more…

Even the happiest of couples fight. In fact, most people will tell you that it’s a sign of a healthy relationship because you feel comfortable enough to assert your wants and needs. Unfortunately you can’t really control when the time comes for you to assert those wants and needs. Sometimes it comes when you are in the privacy of your own home. Click here to read more…

A Woman’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… He’s Trying to Change Me Physically
- by Jennifer on May 18th, 2011
By Kelly Seal
There have been many things I’ve wanted to change about my appearance over the years. In high school, I hated my large Italian nose and thought nobody could ever feel romantic towards me, at least not as much as they swooned over the popular perky-nosed girls. In college, I dressed like a guy: t-shirts and jeans only, because I didn’t feel feminine or sexy like the women who could throw on mini skirts and heels for a Saturday night. They managed to get dates, while I watched from the sidelines wondering if I would ever be like them: pretty, confident, sexy, and feminine. Click here to read more…
A Woman’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… He Shows Up Two Hours Late

It was summer and I had just moved to Los Angeles. After a recent break-up with a man I’d dated in San Diego, I left to keep my sanity. I’d also subscribed to a few online dating sites, which is when the trouble really began.
I had a fabulous first date with TennisJoe. As most of us know, fabulous dates are hard to come by when you’re online dating, so you can imagine how excited I was. We’d met for drinks at a local tapas bar, and immediately bonded. Click here to read more…
A Woman’s POV: How it Makes Me Feel When… I’m Having Sex for the Sake of Sex
- by Jennifer on April 6th, 2011
Let’s get straight down to the hard and fast (yes, the sexual innuendo is intended) bottom line—none of us would be here if not for sex and it’s genetic, primal, and uncontrollable driving force.
Sex is the motivation and behind many great movies, raunchy porn, music, and art.
Sex has created multi-billion-dollar business empires like Video Exclusives and Girls Gone Wild, not to mention the glossy and not-so-pin-up-girl pages of Playboy and Hustler magazines. Click here to read more…
