Yesterday, I had a bit of a predicament. My cat, scoundrel that he is, ate one of my wife’s hair bands. Not a good thing. Hair bands can get caught in a cat’s intestines. If they get bunched up enough, they can cause tears and even require surgery to remove. An awful prospect. We would […]
Yesterday I heard an interesting story. A colleague of mine has been hooking up with a girl for the past three weeks. Him and this fine damsel were sleeping together on the regular. Last night, however, after they had their regular “rendezvous,” he asked her if she wanted to stick around and watch a Woody

So, as many of you know, my new book, Tackling Texting, was supposed to come out today.And, yet, it has not. To be honest, though it would be “classic Pat” to have something unfinished on my end delaying the opening, truthfully this time it was a little something more bland. Amazon apparently has an *up

Today I jumped on a bus from NYC to south jersey. It was crowded, and there were a lot of standbys. It was (sadly) clear all of them were not going to get on. Bodies were fighting to get in. So, I was a bit surprised to see a girl on the bus had placed
Last night I was out with my buddy from Scotland for St. Patrick’s Day. Mostly, we were just catching up. We don’t see each other too often and aren’t looking to score any women (after all, we’re both taken) But it appears charm springs eternal whether you like it or not. Oddly enough, in this

You know, it’s strange. My name is Patrick. I’m at least a third Irish, according to my DNA (And I certainly look it) But St. Patrick’s Day? Wasn’t too big of a fan. Especially, oddly enough, when it came to dating. Despite ALL of the things ostensibly stacked in my favor, St. Patrick’s Day never

As many of you know, there’s a concept sweeping the nation right now. College kids, terrified by having their precious little views violated, have taken to demanding a “safe space” on campus. In other words, a room where no one who disagrees with them (or who represents someone disagreeable to them) can enter. To make

As a dating coach, I am loathe to tell guys not to go out and meet girls. After all, most guys struggling with women are just LOOKING for rationalizations to stop themselves from putting themselves out there. But truth be told, some guys actually need to be told a little something counterintuitive…Chill. Stop practicing approaching women.Stop

A few things heard commonly in relationships (or at wedding ceremonies) are variations of the following: “I’m just so grateful to be with my best friend” “You’re my best friend, I love you” “I love that I’m marrying my best friend” Now, don’t get me wrong — I’m not trying to be a dick to

Recently yours truly had an article of his rejected by an esteemed magazine. Now, no need to get our your torches and pitchforks out in my defense. They’re good people, and I’m OK. In fact — I was expecting it to happen — even though the content was great. You see, even though *I* like
