Asking about her dating and sexual history

I’ve been on a lot of dates in my life, first dates, second dates, 50th dates.  I’ve been married unsuccessfully (due to breaking all my own rules!), I’ve had amazing long term relationships and wonderful spring flings.  Something that always amazes me, even about myself, is how curious men can be about the past relationships [...]

Romance versus Ownership

A regular reader of BAM here asked me a pretty strong question the other day: “I like all your logic in dealing with women, but what about romance?”  Ahh, romance!  Romance is the subject of all practically every women’s magazine cover (written by men), and every man I’ve ever talked to who likes women.  The [...]

You like her too much

An interesting private message hit my Facebook today from someone who is starting to read this site:
I recently started dating a woman and I can’t keep my mind off of her.  I don’t think she likes me as much as I like her.  What is the right thing to do?
Maybe you’re in the same boat. [...]

The first date, coffee or tea

When you’ve met someone, in real life, online or a blind date through friends, the most important things you want to do on a first date is to gauge her initial desire grade towards you.  A first date is not about learning much about her, but about seeing if she likes you.  The fact that [...]

Giving her some economic truth: dating supply and demand

When you’re involved in financial decisions, there’s reality to every decision: supply and demand.  If you want the latest electronic gadget that everyone wants, there’s going to be a lot of demand and not a lot of supply.  This causes prices to skyrocket.  If a company makes a billion pencils that no one wants, there’s [...]

A-level Desire Grade

When it comes to grading the level of desire a woman has for you, and you have for her, the A desire grade is the one that is most exciting.  When a woman has a A-level desire grade for you, you’re doing everything right, and she’s showing it to you through her actions, not her [...]

When you’re hurt, don’t threaten to end a relationship

Not all my advice is about dating, and many of my rules to relationships can be used in dating, but they can also be used in any relationship: business, friendships, family, loves and lusts.  Recently, a friend of mine had an issue with his bank charging him an overdraft fee that wasn’t warranted.  I gave [...]

Does she like you enough?

There’s a weird issue that separates men and women in dating: the trigger that causes one or the other to end the relationship.  Most relationship experts will tell you that the biggest triggers to a breakup are:

Lying
Cheating
Lack of attention
Moving too fast/too slow
Loss of attraction

Your domestic life is a mess, Part I

You’re dating, right?  Or you want to date.  Or you’ve been out on dozens of first dates and nothing really is clicking.  Maybe you’re past the first dates and you’re dating a lovely lady or two who you’ve seen more than once.  Either way, for most guys, your domestic life is a mess.

The Domestic Wingman

I’ve always said it to men who are back in the dating game again: always have two people in your life before you add a girlfriend (or three): a friend and a domestic wingman.  The friend is someone you like to spend time with, someone you can see on a regular basis, weekly preferably.  I’ll [...]
