Don’t let her ruin your good time.
Date: November 12th, 2007, Filed under Be a Man
I remember my first encounter when a relationship blew up; I was hanging out with a guy who was dating what I considered a fantastic gal (beautiful, smart, and usually funny), and she happened to be there. I must have been 17, and we were at a local pub where I was admittedly underage. He’s a Brit, she’s American.
The girl was obnoxiously drunk, but my friend had maybe two pints in him over 4 hours. We were at the pub to watch some professional game of some kind, and him and I happened to work in the same consulting industry, so he invited me to the game. She tagged along because she was insecure of him being at a bar with the boys for some reason.

Dealing with insecurities: a growing problem
Date: September 6th, 2007, Filed under Be a Man
In the past 4 weeks, I’ve had not one, not two, not even three but four guy friends “challenge” me with trying to find a solution with a common problem they’re all having: how to deal with the insecurities of their girlfriends (not wives, not fiances). Most of the guys have been dating the ladies for 4-6 months, and all of them have the exact same concen: their girlfriend is jealous, fearful, badgering, controlling, and over-inquisitive of what the guys are doing when they aren’t with them.

Are all women the same?
Date: February 26th, 2007, Filed under Be a Man
Since rebirthing this site, I’ve started to receive more e-mails than ever before — thanks to StumbleUpon and other collaborative networks. I appreciate all your e-mails and questions, and even your criticisms and complaints.
Last week I received quite a few critical e-mails from both friends and people who were new to the site. The most common criticism is reports of men who told me that their relationships with their wives broke all the rules in the beginning, and their relationships are fine. I’d like to address these criticisms with my experience of dealing with women in my 18 years since becoming a man.

5 Reasons Not to Lie to a Woman
Date: February 22nd, 2007, Filed under Be a Man
A few weeks back I was out with a friend of my brother’s, and he happened to be hitting on a cute gal he just met in a bar. I casually listened in to his conversation with her and made a bet with myself that he would end up without her number. I was right. He broke almost every rule that I set forth, but he also broke a rule I haven’t really covered before — don’t lie.
You’ll hear it from every “dating expert,” but few have good reason behind it. I’ll get past the first and most obvious reason why you shouldn’t lie to a woman…

Letter from a Reader: How to not be a creep?
Date: February 20th, 2007, Filed under Be a Man
Back in January, I received the following e-mail from a reader who wanted to delve deeper in gaining the eye of a woman they’re interested in — especially one they meet when they’re out in public, but not a particular social event.
I like your articles. All of them have been very clear and understandable, you are a talented writer. The one thing that I always seem to have a problem with is initiation of a conversation. How do you talk to a woman that you find attractive, without seeming like a creep? What needs to be done to have that woman interested in you in your first encounter? What can I say to initiate a conversation, that isn’t too personal, but will also hopefully lead into a longer more diverse conversation with her?

You’ve been friends a long time, why won’t she date you?
Date: December 21st, 2006, Filed under Uncategorized, Be a Man
It is lately the most popular search topic that finds this site — and one of the most common questions I get asked by men I know who just can’t seem to convert a girl they like into a girl who likes them. Sometimes a guy will have been friends with a girl for months or years, and continue to wonder why she never showed interest in him. I get asked that a lot — “how can I make her love me?” The answer, unfortunately, is that you can’t.
