I’m not supermodel material, but I’m not butt-ugly, either. Imagine my disgust, though, when a troll of a guy suggested I change my appearance.

I had just broken up with my fiancée, and it seemed the world was arranging dates for me. Even my hairdresser played matchmaker. “I have a really nice client who I’ve known for years,” she...

So, there we were, one of my best friends and I, cruising. We pulled up to a traffic signal, and lo and behold, in the Cadillac next to us are two reasonably attractive men. We flirted, did a little racing, and finally pulled over in a parking lot. More flirting and we invited them to join us at one of our favorite dance clubs. One of the guys...

I met the guy on an online dating site. We had chatted for months and finally decided to meet. His photos looked nice; he was tall (6'5"), dark, and close to handsome. He had stood me up once before, but I thought I'd try to meet again.

Twenty-ten was definitely my worst New Year's Eve yet. My friend, C., didn't have plans, so I told him about a New Year's Eve party that I was going to with some friends.

A good friend of mine invited me (and C.) to her house for dinner and drinks before the party. Instead of being a gentleman and picking me up, C. met me at my friend...

On or second date, D. invited me to a Braves game with another couple. The trouble started when he insisted we park five miles away from Turner Field. “Okay,” I thought. “No one really likes to pay exorbitant parking fees.” Then again, I also thought since he was financially secure he could shell out $10 so we wouldn’t be sweating by the time...

Rocky and I went on a semi-last minute date. It was 9 p.m. or so when he called to ask me if I wanted to grab a slice of pizza down the street. At 9p.m.?? I told him I had already eaten dinner (at a reasonable hour for a Wednesday), but we could have a drink. He ate and I drank. After we left, he invited me to see his place. We’d been on a few...

I am a major planner. In college, I planned every second of my day, right down to what I ate and how many hours of sleep I was permitted. That’s why I was particularly surprised when six months into my relationship with a new boyfriend, I discovered I was pregnant. Pregnancy definitely wasn’t part of my plan. I knew he was “The One” and I...
