    How To Actually Lose A Guy In 10 Days 

    If you haven’t re-watched Kate Hudson’s rom-com How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days a hundred times, then that’s something we don’t have in common, because I have. But it seems that even though I’ve memorized this movie, I still don’t really know how to lose a guy in 10 days. I found out how to annoy the fuck out of one, but I don’t really know if that’s enough for him to be gone.

    Now, I don’t actually have a guy that I want to lose in 10 days. In fact, I’d like to know how to lose a guy in 10 days so I know what not to do in 10 days to get my ass dumped.

    If you’re looking to get out of a relationship, or if you simply want to know what will release you into the single world in a little over a week, we have a day-by-day planner on how to actually lose a guy in 10 days.

    (More …)

    Are You A Sammi Or A Ronnie? 

    I’m not ashamed to say it– I love watching Jersey Shore. There isn’t a Thursday that you won’t find me in front of my TV watching a group of the classiest, well-read, extremely tone-appropriate skin colors doing things that obviously only the classiest of folk do. Wait… that may be Jeopardy I’m thinking of. Jersey Shore is the one where they get drunk and fight each other, right? I like that one, too. But, like most people, there’s an element of that show that I can’t stand. And those elements’ names? Sammi and Ron.

    While the rest of the world is sitting around wondering why the two of them are together, I’m sitting pretty because I already know the answer. After going on Jersey Shore and showing the world that they’re absolutely bat shit crazy, they’ve realized that not a single soul would date them now, so they’ve decided to cling to each other in a desperate attempt to not be alone for the rest of their lives.

    Personally my favorite part about the hatred towards Sammi and Ron is that most of it comes from couples EXACTLY LIKE SAMMI AND RON. Newsflash, world! If you’re in a relationship where you drink too much and fight all the time and break up every other day and cry all the time, then you aren’t exactly in the position to judge a couple who drinks too much and fights all the time and breaks up every other day and cries all the time. But, since most likely you are in a relationship like that, I have a fun game for you!

    Laaaaadies and gentlemen! It’s time to play Who Are You: Sammi Or Rahn? This is where the theme music would start playing if this was on TV and not the internet.


    First Question!
    Do you have an abnormal amount of rage built up inside you because you’ve been overloading your steroid usage since you were 14? Have you not seen your balls in the last 6 years because they’ve shrunken to the size of your brain? When you’re drunk, do you start taking swings at your guy friends? And when you’re really drunk do you start taking swings at your girlfriend (Don’t worry about it man, she probably deserved it anyways)?
    If this sounds like you, then you’re a RONNIE!!!

    Next Question!
    Does your boyfriend traumatize you by having sex with women who aren’t you in the smush room in the house you both live in together? Does he troll the city visibly high on coke looking to meet local women to make out with in front of all your mutual friends, then get violently mad when said friends tell you about it? Do you enjoy getting in loud screaming matches that always end in you crying, being single, and getting back together all within a night?
    If this one sounds like you, then you my friend are a SAMMI!!

    Wasn’t that fun?! Next time join us to see if you’re an Ike or a Tina!

    The Curious Case Of The Single Woman And The Married Man 

    If you don’t know a couple who is no more thanks to a single woman seducing the man, then you’re probably 12, because anyone over that age knows a couple like that.

    Alright, that’s a bit specific. Obviously if a man strays for another woman, he’s just as much to blame as she is, but that still doesn’t explain why so many single women are attracted to taken men.

    In a study done by Ontario’s Western University, they had 200 women judge pictures of 20 men, one picture with another women, with with just himself, and almost 80% of those women chose the picture where they were with the woman as the ‘hotter picture’ of him. The surprising part? The pictures were doctored and the woman was digitally erased for the picture where he’s by himself, meaning that the two pictures of the men were the exact same. Out of those 200 women, only 8 noticed that it was the same man.

    Scientists suggest the reason for this is because women get a rush of endorphins that stimulates better sex when they’re sleeping with someone that was a challenge to get. What’s that mean? Basically if they’re getting easy free sex, it’s average. If they’re having sex with someone that didn’t give it up so easily, they naturally have better sex.

    Besides the bedroom action, women like the chase in general. Having their sites set on someone that is supposed to be so unattainable is the ultimate chase. Technically it should be impossible to get a man with a ring on his finger, and if you tell someone he’s impossible, people just want him that much more.

    So, here’s my plea to single women and married men: Knock it  off already! You’re the reason you have a bad rap.

    Did Carrie And Big Ruin The Fairy Tale Ending? 

    Since the dawning of time, little girls have looked forward to the fairy tale ending. They’ve wanted to meet their prince charming, have the royal wedding, pop out a few kids and live happily ever after. But since HBO brought us the cursed gift in the form of Sex And The City, we’ve been striving for something a little different.

    Carrie Bradshaw, the girls girl who we can all relate to, has changed the story we expect. Instead of finding the prince and having our happily ever after, we expect to find our prince, realize he’s not so charming, fight, break up, cheat, wait for him to marry and divorce someone else, try to get married, get left at the alter, try to get married again, and eventually make it down the isle in a two-person no-guest wedding at a courthouse.

    Okay, so maybe what we expect isn’t exactly like that, but it’s not too far off, either. When we see people like Carrie struggling to get her love and sex lives together, it’s easy to lower the bar on expectations for ourselves. It’s the Mother Smoking syndrome all over again. When you see your mom smoking when you’re little, you imitate her thinking nothing of it. If mom can do it, whey can’t you, right? We look up to Carrie like we did our mothers when we were little, only now instead of pretending to smoke, we’re falling into bad relationships because they just happened to work out with her.

    Next time you want to meet singles, don’t settle for anything less than prince charming! Just because Carrie settled with Big doesn’t mean you have to walk the same path. She may have changed the typical ending we expect, but if you raise your bar, you’ll end up happier than Ms. Bradshaw herself.

    Dating An Open Cheater 

    People shouldn’t be judged on their past. If they were, Obama would still be seen as a pot head, Justin Timberlake would still be seen as a teenie bopper, and Britney would still be locked up in the mental ward. But when it comes to dating someone who has a history of being a cheater, should you let that effect your trust for them?

    The saying ‘Once a cheater, always a cheater’ is popular for a reason. Most of the time people don’t cheat because they’re unhappy in their specific relationship, but because of external problems that they either don’t realize, or don’t care about.

    If you’re getting into a relationship with someone who has had sex outside of their relationships before, protect yourself and find out the details beforehand. That way you’re able to clear the air and either get past it, or if you think you won’t be able to trust them, you can move on all together and meet singles so you can start a relationship with someone you can trust.

    If you’re going to date a cheater, find out the facts!

    FIND OUT WHY THEY CHEATED IN THEIR LAST RELATIONSHIP
    Was it really the relationship that made them cheat? Who do they blame? Their partner? Themselves? Knowing the facts about the ‘why’ will help you better understand what you’re dealing with.

    TALK ABOUT THEIR HISTORY OF IT
    Was it a one-time thing, or have they done this several times? If they’re open about cheating on multiple partners, chances are this is a pattern that isn’t going to break with you!

    HAVE THEY EVER BEEN CHEATED ON?
    If they have, that’s probably a big contributor as to why they cheated themselves! Expressing that you’d never cheat on them is the best thing you can do to insure they’re not going to do it to you. Cheating can be a defense mechanism (‘I’ll cheat first so it will hurt less if they do it,’ kind of thing), so you have to play a good offense to insure they won’t be taking those measures.

    FIGURE OUT THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM
    Let them know about your reservations about getting in a relationship with a former cheater, and try to find out together why they’ve cheated in the first place. Getting to the root of the problem is the only way to find a permanent solution, so if they’re worth the trouble, find out what you can do to fix it!

    You need trust to make a relationship work, so get the hard part out of the way early on so you can concentrate on building a solid relationship!

    What Do Men Do At Bachelor Parties? 

    I get a lot of questions from readers, but ever once in a while I get one that I’m surprised I haven’t gotten before. Today is one of those days.

    I started seeing someone only a few weeks ago and he’s going to his brothers bachelor party next week. Should I be worried he’s going to sleep with someone else? Is that what happens at bachelor parties?
    Thanks,
    Not A Bride

    With movies like The Hangover, it’s easy to see why women think that bachelor parties are used for the wedding party to have one last big bang (literally) before the big day. Well ladies, you can put your minds at ease, because less than 5% of men have sex at bachelor parties.

    The stereotypes women have about bachelor parties are not only off, they’re generally downright wrong! Women have a what-happens-in-Vegas state of mind about men’s bachelor parties, but there’s usually not much to tell. Men see them as a chance for male bonding before one of their best walks down the isle, not as a chance to hookup. There’s a reason bachelor parties are usually male-invite only. They aren’t using the night to get close to girls, they’re using it as a genuine chance to get closer to their boys.

    If you’re really worried about your new bo having sex with someone else, take a look at these stats: At bachelor parties, men are likely to come in contact with an average of three women. A waitress or bartender, a stripper (if his friends booked that little surprise), and usually not more than one woman trying to talk to the group. When women see a bachelor party, they have the same assumption you do, that they’re up to no good. It makes women stay away and eliminates the chances of your friend to meet singles during his time out.

    And unless you actually live in Vegas or the surrounding area, the chances of your date going to the city of sin for the big bash is unlikely. In fact, the most common place for guys to have their bachelor parties is the golf course!

    If you’re concerned about him sleeping with someone else, vocalize it. Even if he doesn’t sleep with someone at the party, it doesn’t mean he won’t sleep with someone somewhere else if you haven’t yet set your guidelines. Be open about your sexual relationship with other people and there’s no doubt he’ll do the same.

    Cheating Isn’t Always A Bad Thing 

    A new study just came out saying that in relationships where men cheat, the divorce rate is significantly less than the divorce rate of a faithful couple. So why then when we think of cheaters do our minds always wonder to such a dark place?

    The study showed that when men cheat, it isn’t because they weren’t happy in the relationship or that they were looking for someone else to invest emotions in, but that they simply had the opportunity and wanted sex. It’s a mans primal instinct to want to have sex, and it’s been proven time and time again that sex lifts their moods. So what exactly is the downside to them having sex with someone other than their wife or girlfriend?

    Most people don’t have a problem with the act itself, but with the emotional stigma they feel about the deception of the act. Females don’t want to feel like they’ve been lied to, or that their significant other has found someone else that he likes more. When women look at cheating, they only see the ego attached to it. When men look at it, they only see the chance to get laid.

    Singles dating have the right idea: keep it light and loose! Singles don’t care how many other people the guy they’re dating is seeing, as long as he’s still seeing her. Wouldn’t it be a little easier if your husband had a place to release his sexual tension? That would save you from having to do the work yourself after coming home from a long day of work.

    Many people have brought open communication into relationships when it comes to affairs. Often when there’s guidelines and structure, people have very long relationships regardless if they’re sleeping with other people. I have a friend who lets her husband sleep with whoever he wants as long as it’s never more than one time with the same person, there’s no talking afterwards (pillow talk is fine, but they can’t exchange numbers), and he doesn’t tell her about it. She said since they started doing it, their relationship has been stronger than ever. He’s no longer upset or resentful about the lack of sex they have, and she can concentrate on how to help their marriage emotionally instead of always physically.

    Cheating doesn’t have to always be negative, nor does it always have to be ‘cheating’. If you take the ego out of it, then it really can strengthen the bond you have. But be smart about it– if you’re naturally a jealous person, maybe this isn’t the best path for you. But if you can handle it, then set up an online profile and start looking for your lunchtime piece!
