Think you have to give up your search for love now that we’re in the middle of a global pandemic? You don’t! Now is a better time than ever to foster real, lasting connections instead of rushing out to meet the people you match with. You have a unique opportunity to slow things down and really get to know someone before getting physically involved. This situation is definitely causing us to hit pause on the hookup culture that has left so many women frustrated and jaded. We have the ability to date without meeting face to face. So get creative and use this time and technology to your advantage. It’s totally possible to emerge from this crisis having developed a real long term relationship. I’m here to help and I’ll be doing a series of blogs on exactly what to do to get the relationship you want in the coming […]

Most of us have a bit more alone time at the moment. We’re not covering up our loneliness with endless activities, social engagements, and errands. Maybe you’re realizing that you want love in your life now more than ever. I’m here to help you get it. I recommend that you start by using this time to reflect on what’s been happening in your dating life. What patterns tend to repeat for you? Do you date the same types of guys over and over again? Is it hard for you to find anyone you actually want to date? Do your relationships crash and burn after a few intense weeks? What choices have you made that have contributed to these outcomes? What kind of relationship are you looking for at this time in your life and why? The answers to these questions will help you find men who actually want what you […]

PLEASE tell me you have an online dating profile! You are not allowed to read my emails if you don’t. Just kidding, but you know my views on online dating if you’ve been following me for more than 5 seconds. It’s your best shot at finding your man if you do it right. And having a great profile matters more than ever right now. It’s the only way you’re meeting new men these days, so write one today if you don’t have one. Be sure to include a few lines about the kind of relationship you’re looking for. If this scares anyone away, that’s great. You’ll have one less message to read from a man who doesn’t want what you do. Put some serious time and effort into this. Do not ever write another boring list of adjectives, travel destinations, or (God forbid) rants or “don’t message me if’s”. Write […]

Do you keep dating men who aren’t good for you? Here’s how to stop right now. When you’re shopping for men, look for the ones who have actual relationship skills. Prioritize these qualities over all else. I tell my clients to narrow down their “lists” to 5 character based must-have’s. This cuts through the noise and gets you dating men who are relationship-ready. It’s so much more fun than endless drama. No more finding someone cute with great chemistry and trying to shoehorn him into your life. Forget about sleeping with him for a few months hoping he’ll fall in love with you and then you’ll be able to sneak a relationship in the back door. None of that. If you only date men who are good for you and capable of having a healthy relationship, you can relax and enjoy the ride. To learn more, check out this video! […]

It really can seem like a stretch to start talking to total strangers. You’ll get used to it with practice though, and it’s well worth the effort. Here are some quick tips for acing this. Write a good opening email. Do not cut and paste. It doesn’t have to be long, but it should indicate that you read his profile. After exchanging 3-5 messages offer him your number if he hasn’t asked for it yet. Indicate that it is for calling, not texting! There are several very important reasons for this, watch the video for more. This phone call replaces the first date. After that, you can schedule another phone call or virtual date on the platform of your choice. Treat it as much like a real date as possible. Be friendly and open, ask good questions, get dressed up. Now is a better time than ever to build a […]
