Handling Heartbreak

Heartbreak – it’s a fact of life, and a part of being human. Throughout the centuries countless songs, stories, and poems have been written about broken hearts. As REM reminds us in their 1992 song “Everybody Hurts”, at some point in your life you will experience a broken heart and feel you can’t go on. However I’m willing to bet, if you’re heartbroken at the moment, you aren’t listening... [Read more]

Breaking Up: a good time to get creative?

Have come to the conclusion the person you’re dating just isn’t the one for you? Are you dreading the dirty deed, knowing it will probably get ugly? A straightforward, face-to-face meeting is the most effective and respectful way to handle this sticky situation, but there are a lot of people who just can’t bear hurting the one they should, but don’t, love.

Dating a coworker: Too taboo for you?

If so many perfectly dateable girls insist there are no good men out there, let’s try on the not-so-radical idea that perhaps we’re looking in the wrong places?

Girls, let’s face it: it’s a small world, especially in the dating scene. Since it seems there aren’t many good men available, I’ve been toying with some radical ideas to deepen the dating pool. Most recent idea? Dating an ex. Now some of you are probably thinking Mimi here is taking “green” just a little too far.

Besides the “upper, lower and side” abs, the core also includes muscles of the low back, butt, hips, and the deep layer of the abdominals, called the transverse abdominus. If you want to locate the transverse abdominus, take a deep breath and cough.... [Read more]

The Pros and Cons of Dating Nerds

After some not-so-serious thought and discussion among friends (both nerdy and not), it’s still not clear if most of my girlfriends would enjoy dipping their feet into the geek dating pool. Would it be worthwhile to broaden our dating purview to the world of techies, dorks, dweebs and poindexters? Not trying to persuade or dissuade anyone, and as always taking the opportunity to poke some fun at... [Read more]

The Odds are Good

While devouring a decadent pot of guac and a premium rita at Mez last week, I remarked to my girlfriend how men seem to dominate every lunch and happy hour spot in Research Triangle Park.
