The Question of the Week comes from Yvonne (with a “Part 2” from Rita). Yvonne asks:  I never have trouble attracting or dating a great guy...but how do you keep them interested and in for the long term relationship? Is there a special key to turn on their hearts forever!!?  more

This week I'm answering TWO Facebook questions... The one with the most votes, and one that has been asked two weeks in a row (I sense it may be weighing heavily on her mind...)!

The first is from Christy P. She asks: Why do guys that have been "burned" in past relationships always think all women are the same? In my experience most of them don't appreciate a good woman when she comes along and sabotages it before anything comes out of it. History doesn't always have to repeat itself!  more

The Facebook Question of the Week comes from Cheri. She asks: What do you do when you suspect a guy is playing a cat-and-mouse game with you as a way of testing how interested you are?

Excellent question, Cheri! As much as we hate to admit it to ourselves, there is a bit of game playing In the beginning stages of dating. Men and women both do it, to some degree.  more

The Facebook Question of the week comes from Robin O.            She asks: Is it a bad idea to become facebook 'friends' during the beginning stages of dating because it gives away too much information too soon (if you're very open like me), without directly communicating with each other? Does it take away some of the mystery and thrill of 'the chase' or is it actually a good tool for getting to know each other better?

Great question, Robin! more

This week, the votes came so close between two excellent questions that I decided to answer BOTH.

So here are my answers to the Facebook QuestionS of the Week!

#1 comes from Angela. She asks: When a guy is really into you, is one episode of drama enough for him to pull away,or if he does, it means that he wanted to break up with you anyway? more

This week's Facebook Question of the Week comes from Pauline.

She says, "So many men are scared to tell a woman the truth - about whatever it may be. They may have done something, or don't call, or no longer interested, etc. Why do men do this ?? Just be honest!!!" more

The Facebook Question of the Week comes from Suzi Su. She asks:  more

The Facebook Question of the Week comes from Dierdre. She asks:  "Paige- In your opinion, how do you think men define being in a "serious" relationship?"

Hi Dierdre,

Good question!

Of course every man is different, but it is my belief that most men consider themselves in a "serious" relationship with a woman when they are committed, monogamous, and (most likely) planning for a future with her.

In fact, I think Suzi from the DWD community said it very well in her reply to you on Facebook: more

The Facebook Question of the Week comes from Amy. She asks:
How can you tell if the man you are with is the right one for you??

Excellent question, Amy! Although each person is different and no two relationships are alike, there are some ways to evaluate whether your guy is serious relationship material - or even if he could be "The One."

I address this in Chapter 17 of "Dating Without Drama," but in case you haven't read it yet or need a refresher, here's an excerpt: more

The Facebook question of the week comes from Rita. She asks:

What should you do when you're wondering if your boyfriend will ever tell you that he loves you? Should you ever tell him you love him first?

My answer:

Great question, Rita! In fact, over the years so many women asked me this very question I decided to devote an entire chapter to "saying 'I love you'" in my eBook.

Here's my advice...
