I have been on my share of double dates. In fact, if there could be such thing as a professional double dater, I may be it. Pre and Post wedding, I have been frequently accompanied by my wife and some couple she and/or I like enough to spend an evening with. These dates are usually quite pleasant, a social marker of maturity and good fun. However,...

Ever since those Dos Equis ads appeared, featuring "The Most Interesting Man in the World,” I've been wondering how a person could possibly become so interesting. Can such charm be demystified? Can it be broken down into parts and analyzed? To some degree it can be. First, we have to identify exactly what it is we're breaking down. I think t...

This whole cougar craze perplexes me. Not because I do not understand it, but because I always have understood and cannot figure out why it took everyone else so long to catch on.

A little while back, I wrote an article on the definition of friendship and whether such a concept is as obviously desirable as people assume. I think that if we can see the p...

Whether your are a Star Wars fan or not, I know what you're thinking: " The Empire Strikes Back was SOOOOO 30 years ago." Well, you're right. In fact, this year marks the 30th anniversary of one of the coolest movies of all time. I plan to celebrate that fact by focusing on one of the hidden treasures of that cinematic masterpiece: a lesson in...

As a woman, I can tell you that anybody can get anyone, regardless of looks - and even money - if you're right for each other.   I believe that any guy can get any girl, and vice versa, if the situation is right. Mr. Loyd has never had the right situation, and he gave up on looking for one. I know very, very hot women with guys who are not so, a...
