Nothing sets the tone for a relationship like the first date. Maybe you believe in love at first sight. Maybe you’re an online dater. Perhaps you were introduced to the love of your life through a mutual friend. Regardless, it means nothing until you have that first date. The first date is like the first game of the World Series. You are in a position to win the championship and this is the first step to victory. And everyone wants to win Game 1. Read More

The First Date
Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010The First Phone Call
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010Score! Mission accomplished. The phone number of the girl or guy whose wit, charm, good looks and/or hot body has your pulse racing and loins throbbing has been saved on your mobile phone. ‘It was great meeting you, I’ll be in touch soon,’ you say as the two of you part ways. As you walk away you congratulate yourself for having the courage to ask for and skill to get what you wanted. Now all I have to do is decide when to call… Shit. Read More
My Submissive Cyberstalker
Tuesday, January 26th, 2010Readers, I want to let you in on a secret. I have a cyberstalker. He’s a cute and clean cut brunette, with lovely blue eyes and a warm smile. He’s been following me for years, from one online dating site to another, trying to get my attention. I’ve never responded to his IMs, and have even gone as far as blocking him so he can’t send me messages on more than one occasion. When I do, he just regroups and comes back at me with a new profile and name (talk about persistence).
It is clear he’s obsessed with me (though I’m sure I’m not the only woman who is so lucky), but it’s not because I’m particularly beautiful or due to the fact that he thinks we are compatible based on any commonalities in our interests. My cyberstalker keeps coming back for one reason and one reason only Read More

Day 4 – An Honourable Man
Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009It’s 2009 all, and by now most of you know that choosing to date online is fraught with risks. Some of these risks are the same ones you’d face were you to meet a random stranger in at the local pub, and others are more specific to the medium. In either case using good ol’ common sense will generally keep you out of trouble, right? Well, as they say, common sense really ain’t so common and keeping your wits about you may get a little tricky when you’re swept away by L-O-V-E. Read More
Do You Usually Date Prostitutes?
Thursday, December 10th, 2009So yesterday I hit you with my truth regarding women and causal sex. After wracking my brain about what I could share today, I decided to tell you all about one of my ‘bestest’ first dates (I hope you caught the sarcasm there). All I can say is life occasionally gets real rough in the dating jungle.
Mr. Not Too Swift and I met online a while ago. We clicked during our first few marathon phone conversations. He told me he was trying to get back into DJ-ing, and that he worked as a sales rep at his day job. Read More
Riding the Wave
Friday, December 4th, 2009The debate was passionate, intense and explosive. The subject was crass, juvenile, superficial and trivial. We, specifically James, Randy, Louis and I, were debating whether or not we would rather sleep with a woman who was really obese or one who was a bone rack. It all started because I’d joked that I was the United Nations of romantic hookups, a veritable Lady Liberty of sex—“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses…” Read More
It’s All About Eve…and Jezebel, Delilah and Bathsheba
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009If there is anything that my Judeo-Christian programming upbringing, has taught me, it’s that woman is the root of all evil. Whether we’re talking about Jezebel, Delilah or the grandmamma of them all, Eve, the desire and lust for the fairer sex has led men to commit all manner of atrocities. Read More
