Dear Lauren,
I’ve been hanging out with this guy for 4 months. He’s a fashion designer and writer so he’s always busy. Everything’s great when we spend time with each other. We do get intimate when we see each other and at other times we just hang out. About a month ago I asked him if [...]
Dear Lauren, he takes too much cave time
Dear Lauren
I’ve just rekindled a past relationship. I haven’t completely decided on him yet. We are taking it slow and I still go on coffee dates with other men. I notice that he goes into his cave for long periods of time and quite often. I just wonder if this will really wear on me over [...]
Dear Lauren, I need a Saturday night man
Dear Lauren,
I am 27 and have been single for 3 years. I go between wanting to be in a relationship but not finding a good guy to not wanting a relationship at all. But every time Saturday night rolls around I think about my lack of a date and it bums me out. I don’t [...]

Dear Lauren, We Feel Responsible for Each Other’s Happiness
Dear Lauren, When something upsets my boyfriend or when anything upsets me, we feel responsible for each other. For example, if he gets upset about some incident, I feel guilty like it is somehow my fault when in fact I had nothing to do with it! It’s the same with him, if he sees me [...]
Romance & Sex
Romance and Passion Differ on Venus and Mars
The process by which a woman feels real sexual desire is more complex than that of a man.

Why Men are Like Rubber Bands
It is natural that when a man loves a woman, and has been intimate with her for some time, he periodically feels the need to pull away. When this happens, more often than not, women don’t understand why their relationship has been put on hold. “One moment he was very close, and then for no [...]

Urban Legend: Your Marriage Will Likely End in Divorce.
Mark Twain famously said that “a lie makes it half-way around the world before the truth has a chance to put its pants on.” It appears that this is the case when it comes to that often cited fact that one out of every two marriages in America ends in divorce.
