Meeting that special someone
You've met many people in your life. How many of them have been your ideal mate? Probably very few. You may have dated someone very attractive, only to find that they don't seem so wonderful after you get to know them. If you're going to find Mr. or Ms. Right, you're probably going to have to go through a number of people - possibly a large number!
Here are some ideas on how to increase your contacts and find your partner:

The Test
Whew! The first date was tough. The second was easier - and more fun. The third found you in bed with her. Somehow after 3 more dates, you two are a couple. Now, something has come up that directly affects or might even prevent your relationship from moving forward - what do you do?

The Art of Selling
Are you a good salesperson?
I used to teach selling skills and asked this question of thousands of people. Almost everyone doubts that they can sell. Then, I have to ask, have you ever been in a relationship before?

Breaking Up
Sometimes, things run their course. You may be at fault or not, but when its time to bring your relationship to an end you want to do so cleanly and effectively. Here are some suggestions:

Moving In Together
Some people view this as a prelude to getting married;
others see it as a natural "next step" without a further goal.
Either way, this is a big commitment on the part of both parties.
Of course, I'm talking about setting up house as a couple,
not simply sharing housing costs as roommates.

Confidence - How to Show It - Even If You Don't Have It
Many of the women I talk to say the same thing:
of all the things they find attractive in a man, confidence is #1.
The wise man will understand this and use it to his advantage.
If you're going to have any level of success with women, you're going to have to be confident,
or learn to fake it. This article will explore men's confidence - what it is,
how it appears and how to fake it.

It's Never Too Late To Date!
"Hi Doc,
I am 39, never married, and rarely dated.
I am trying to get on my feet career and finance wise,

Follow-Up On "How To Never Be At A Loss For Words"
"Doc:
I hope you can help! I have two questions:
1) I have just read your previous article, "How Not to Be At a Loss for Words".
However, when I'm with a woman, I just CANNOT think of what to say. I wind up just
saying "uh-huh" much of the time and it just kills me. My friends say that I'm a nice,
funny guy. But around women, I just wind up being quiet. Any suggestion is appreciated...

MEN: Learn How To Be Approached
Recently, I've been getting more mail from women complaining that
men are sometimes put off when women approach them. How ludicrous is this?

Playing the Game with a Game Player
1. Does it sound like she is truly interested?
When I talked to her last she said that she would
be interested in going out with me if I ever asked her;
2. She keeps paging and not saying anything.
She just hangs up. Then there is that weird
one about "getting my message and wishing me a happy new year also" a
nd I haven't called her at all (which I plan to do in order to ask
her out this week). I'm wondering if these hang-ups are her subtle messages for me to call her.

From "Sensitive" To "Masculine" in 4 Easy Steps
...
I made the biggest mistake of my
life around this time, and I know why but no excuse.
I cheated on her - it stopped at a kiss. I told her about
it a week later. To this day I am very angry that I was not
able to control myself. My fiance kept me around after that
anyway. Of course, a few months later she was going out
to clubs every other night, needing her 'space' because
the baby was a bit much for her. Along comes her friend's
brother and all of a sudden she doesn't come home one night.
Things went quickly down hill from there...
