I know I live in southern California, but Sonja hates feeling chilly so we have radiant heat going in the house. The problem with the radiant heat in our place is that it cranks up really high and starts cooking us like we’re living in a sauna. So the guy who fixes the heat came by the other day and finally looked at the thermostat. He said that the problem is that the thermostat is not communicating with the heat, i.e., that there is a communication breakdown between the two.

Every day you need to look at how your actions affect others. You also need to look at how dropping your ego is important not only for your personal growth, but so that love can grow deeper. Understanding how your actions affect others could be life’s biggest challenge. I know I’ve written about this before (and probably a lot) in the blog, but I think this is something we all need to learn.

Women ask me all the time, “What do men find romantic?” It’s interesting. There are a lot of women who think that all men (as a gender) are not romantic. I also get a lot of women who email me and say something like, “I wish my boyfriend was more romantic.” Let me tell you something. There are also a lot of men who…

You get in a fight with your partner. They did something that really angered you. You didn’t like their behavior or the way they treated you. Whatever it was that they did, has that ever caused you to basically mirror that behavior back to them? Then you start blaming them for being the way that you are at that moment. You start getting angry at them for making you this way. Sometimes you just…

You know, I’m not going to write that much about Valentine’s Day. What I am going to say about it is along the lines of what I talked about in Wednesday’s podcast. There is one big Valentine’s Day lesson I want all of you to learn. It is about how to make Valentine’s Day exciting for both sexes. How do you do that? It’s very, very simple.

The Super Bowl was a great game this year. I really enjoyed it. I was pretty amazed at the way things went down. Well, actually, I wasn’t. You know me, I’ve been a good football predictor all year. Do you realize that Super Bowl Sunday is the man event of the year? Now, I know a lot of women also watch it and enjoy it, but this is a man’s event. This is an “Oh my God, why doesn’t Hallmark have a line of Super Bowl cards?” type of…

There is something I want to share with all of you today that’s really important. It’s called the truth. I don’t think I ever really covered this before in a blog, however, it is something I think we all need to realize. Have you ever been in a relationship, and you just knew something you were doing – whether on a conscious or subconscious level – was not the right thing but you did it anyway? I am not talking about…

Neediness is one of the biggest turnoffs in the world. So many times, we just want to be self-satisfied. Why didn’t that person call me back? Why didn’t they call me when they said they were going to call me? I really wanted to talk to them. I needed them to talk to me. These are all needy thoughts.

Here’s something that is interesting about falling in love. Falling in love is really peeling a layer from yourself every single day and giving it to another person. There is one thing about falling in love, however, about which most people don’t talk. While falling in love with someone is incredible, you should always be falling in love with two people. The other person with whom you should be falling in love is…
