On the bus down to the shore the other day, a guy in front of me started talking on the phone with a woman. (Not sure if it was his wife, but that’s my best guess) It was pretty painful to listen to. It was clear the two of them did NOT have a good

The other day I read a long, personal email from Alex Allman, a thought leader when it comes to relationships (and a man I deeply respect). It was revealing on the nature of attraction and took on many topics, among them Pick Up. I won’t go into the full email as I actually found most

Last weekend I went out for my soon-to-be-married friend’s bachelor party. Like most bachelor parties, the plan was drinks, dinner, and then a little “after hours” fun at a strip club. Our goal was to give him a little public humiliation — to have some girls abuse him in front of the crowd. And, of

You ever go online to search for something specific and then end up reading or watching something completely different? Rhetorical question, I know 😉 Well, today I found myself in that trap, unintentionally watching clips of World War One trench warfare.
