How to get your ex back (a step-by-step guide)

Dear Lauren,

How can I reconcile withmy ex-boyfriendafterhe broke up with me? He dumped me after being together for 3 years. I’ve given him "space" for 2.5 days with no contact (no more begging or trying to change his mind). Now he sends me an email to see if I'm "ok." Do I respond or stick to some "30 day rule?" What type of contact is okay?

How do I win back my ex? And how long do I wait for him before I move on?

Hey Brooke...

How to make the first move with confidence

Dear Lauren,
I’ve been developing a friendship with this cute guy for a month, whom I’m totally crushing on. At this point we are stuck in friend mode. How do I cross over? How do I get this guy to kiss me?

You're a real catch but here's why women aren't interested.

Dear Lauren,

I’m a good-looking guy, so I know my looks are not the problem. But every time I try talking to a girl, getting close to a girl, or try to take “dating” to the next level, it never works out. I’m a funny guy, fairly wise, very goal oriented, and I’m very social. But the bottom line is, I’m just not very good with “relationships” or dating in general. Can you help give me a clue on how to be more successful with the ladies?

Does it increase intimacy? Or does it blow up in your face?

We had a great date! Why won't he text me back?

Hi Lauren

I went for a coffee with a guy, he said he really liked me & hoped we could meet again. That evening we were texting & he was saying I had lovely eyes, and a lovely personality. Two days later I texted him to say, “Hey, how’s your weekend?” to no reply.

I texted him the next day to say, '”I’m not sure what has gone wrong as we liked each other & agreed to meet again. Can you let me know what the problem is?” No reply.So I to...

Independence vs. Intimacy: The limiting belief that's robbing you blind.

What a good woman is supposed to look like

(and why this belief is robbing you blind).

Everyday, we see commercials and movies portraying what a “good wife” looks like, what a “good mother” looks like, and what a “good business-woman” looks like. In none of those examples do you see a woman taking time for herself, putting her feet up and reading a book.



What we see portrayed is a woman who works tirelessly and sacrifices everything for the...

Valentine's Day shouldn't be the ONE day a year

you see or make an effort toward your relationship.

Valentine's Day, as I see it, is a day to celebrate and acknowledge the solid, loving, fun, passionate and committed relationship you've thoughtfully nurtured and built over

the rest of the year.
