Are You Getting Fat?

Tuesday, October 11th, 2011
A recent Cosmo and AskMen.com survey reported that 40% of men would dump their girlfriend if she gained weight. Appallng? Accurate? On the flip side, only 20% of women said they would dump their boyfriend if he gained weight. Why the discrepancy? It's common knowledge that men are generally the more visual of the two sexes. They are more focused on looks and body type than what's inside a person (that's all just icing on the proverbial cake). Women on the other hand are a bit more forgiving. As a matchmaker I interview both men and women. When I ask the women…

Who Pays the Bills?

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011
I recently had an interesting discussion with a male client of mine regarding money and relationships. It comes into play on the first date and never seems to end. Who pays the bill on the first date? To eliminate this awkward part of the first date I ask my men to just do it. Don't fight about it, don't accept her offer to cover half, just pick up the tab.

Do Opposites Really Attract?

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008
Should you look for someone just like you? I recently read an article (Denver Post 9/2/08) interviewing Keith Swain, a couples therapist, and some other relationship experts. The article focused on one theory of a good match. It's a question I get all the time, "how do you match people?" Well, Keith suggests that you look for someone a little different from you. But there is a lot of disagreement on all sides. Some excerpts Keith has some key points to make. His theory is that some people are alpha, meaning they focus on careers, finances, success,…
