Are long distance relationships really realistic? To tell you the truth, I think long distance relationships are fantasies.

Do you know a surefire sign that your relationship is on the edge, and is going downhill? It’s when you start masturbating again, and actually start enjoying it. Think about your past relationships at the point they were ending, or at the point when you and your partner were “on the outs.” All of a sudden you get to a point in the relationship where you’re having sex, you’re fighting, and you’re not really connecting.

So you’re dating somebody with children, and they have a really nasty ex. How do you deal with that?
How do you deal with the ex when you see them?

Let me share with you a very interesting story about the dynamics of interpersonal relationships — friends and lovers. Let’s say your (same sex) friend is dating someone you really don’t like. You say to your friend, “Look, man, this woman is not good for you. She’s exactly like Mary was. She’s a taker . . . etc etc etc.” When you do that, how does…

There is a word of which a lot of people are afraid: Honesty. Being honest, to me, is one of the greatest feelings in the entire world.

Have you ever been in a relationship in which you keep having the same conversation over and over again? You’ve explained your situation, or a need or desire you have, or something that might bother you about your partner. You’ve talked about it with them over and over and over again. You feel good after each conversation.

We’re getting to the real root of cheaters right now. You’ve been cheated on in the past. If someone asks you what happened in your past relationship, is your answer…

One thing you notice when you get to the breakup point is that you actually fight less with your partner. You fight less because in your mind and in your heart you start detaching yourself from the other person, and you don’t care as much anymore. You have already made a determination that they don’t understand you, that they will never understand you and that the relationship just won’t work out with them. So, all of a sudden…

I had a great conversation today with someone about the difference between what a relationship is like the first three to six months, and what it is like once it really “settles in.” It’s really interesting if you think about it. In the beginning, you try to impress each other. You do special things for each other.

Do you know what’s funny about relationships? Let’s talk about something no one seems to want to talk about when it comes to relationships. When you have a new relationship, you’re just in la-la land. I mean, it is the greatest feeling in the entire world. You want to tell the entire world how much…
