St. Valentine's Day is for martyrs. No kidding. Belief in true love can cause untold suffering to its faithful zealots. How much do we really know about the origin of this day we all either anticipate or dread, depending on the status of our own romantic faith?
While it may be fun and glamorous to be single on the Fourth of July, from the last week in November until Jan. 2, it becomes an affliction to be pitied. Articles abound of survival strategies and emotional advice. Oh come on, we're just single; we're not heading out into the frozen tundra in a sundress with a six pack.
Whether you are a tricker or a treater by nature you may feel the urge to bring a little magic into your love life and, short of parading around town in that sexy nurse costume, want to find a way to attract that special someone.
We are a culture which is continually "stressed out." Plain and simple, this is bad for your love life. Luckily many solutions can be found in the natural "basics."
As someone who takes falling in love literally I have the scars on my knees to prove it I can vouch for that intoxicating feeling you get from the romantic rollercoaster. While love stories can be sweet, they often give terrible advice if you're looking for long term love.
For every woman plotting ways to find a rich husband there are ten more wondering how to build their own wealth. Especially at this tax time of year when we are face to face with our financial realities, many of us think, "There's got to be a better way."
The classic pick up and a classy pick up can be two different things entirely, the latter depending more on originality and authenticity than its clichιd counterpart. It takes not only courage but confidence to pull off the pick up, and to do it successfully, especially in a socially sophisticated spot like the Hamptons, is indeed an art form.
In a world of friends with benefits, hooking up, and poetry reduced to the text message, "U R HOT", the physical and emotional sides of love face an even greater divide. Taking time to build trust and intimacy can be a key to a relationship which lasts longer than the conquest.
The "green" buzzword has infiltrated our consciousness in terms of what we eat and how we recycle and when we drive to the store or walk. Now it's even entered the equation of "Your carbon-footprint-free place or mine?" The question is: Are you an ecosexual?
If you are trying to meet someone special and interesting this summer check out these Insider Tips on where to go.
Modern women are looking and feeling better than ever - now it is age instead of beauty that is in the eye of the beholder. But it's not just about living longer, it's about living better. So is 40 the new 20?
While Prince Charming relied solely on shoe size, most players in the dating game are looking for a little more information about their new love interest. For better or worse the e-invasion is here and tech-savvy social sleuthers can use the World Wide Web as their own DIA, Dating Intelligence Agency.
Science has confirmed what women have known for centuries namely that a broken heart is a real physical affliction. The brain is also just as much involved as the heart in terms of the emotional stress of a break up. So what does science tell us about how we should handle a broken heart? Here are a few of the recommended remedies.
The search for the ultimate Hamptons couple was not easy. They had to be a little of everything. Classy, yet fun. Historical, yet current. Controversial, yet universally loved. And there they were, unassuming and modest yet, unmistakably iconic.
Getting in the mood for love can mean different things to different people. Sure you can just fall back on a little Barry White on the stereo, "Sleepless In Seattle" on DVD or any book by Nicholas Sparks, but this Valentine's Day why not expand your heart's horizons and seek different avenues via music, films, or novels to explore the many splendored thing called love.
Love, like the rest of us, lives in the real world, and real world concerns can often squelch love. But when you take the time to explore the past, deal with the present, and honestly look forward to the future you might be surprised at what you find together.
This New Year's Eve I will be eating black eyed peas while wearing brand new red underwear backwards and waiting for a tall, dark, and handsome man to enter my door carrying coal and whiskey, hoping he won't trip over my set of Tourister luggage on the porch. No, I haven't gotten a hold of a bad batch of egg nog, I will simply be following a few age old traditions.
If you are lucky enough to be blessed with a happy and healthy family it is essential that you give thanks to the powers that be as well as each other because it is truly a gift. That said, these beloved creatures also come with a three day 24/7 expiration date.
Just as Jessica Rabbit claimed, "It's not my fault, I'm just drawn this way," many of our actions in the dating world are direct results of our brain neurochemistry. Much of this hardwiring remains encoded in our DNA even if we're stepping out of the cave in Manolo Blahniks.
There are great people out here who want to meet each other but don't know exactly how to go about it. Social groups tend to move in concentric circles and there isn't nearly enough cross pollination. Especially at a certain age, you may find that your friends are married with kids or you've checked out all the available prospects and didn't find anyone who tickled your fancy. So what do you do to find someone new?
