Eyebrows have been raised when social media blew up with questions as to why Bachelorette, Rachel Lindsay, skipped her own engagement party. Pretty weird. All of her girls have been posting on Instagram, celebrating in her honor.

Throwing shade at her friends from the engagement party or trying to distract from the fact that she missed her own celebration?!

Remember, if you’re feeling as if you’re in a controlling relationship – know that you’re not alone and you do not need to hide.

Controlling behavior feels like you’re a caterpillar in a cocoon struggling to get out and spread your wings, yet the other person wants to keep you in the cocoon. The more you struggle to get out, the tighter they hold you in. If you do break out for a while they will try even harder to hold you down until you finally get weak and just give up.

If you feel like you’re constantly struggling in your relationship and they are showing any signs of controlling behaviors from above, get out. You are the only one who will allow someone else to control and manipulate you. Stop letting someone else control your life.

Most people who feel the need to control others will not want to have anything to do with you unless they can control you. It’s better to walk away and end the relationship if you can for your sanity. If the person is a family member or co-worker, try to keep them at arm’s length. When you must interact with them, try to keep the peace. Though, as soon as they start bossing you around just end the conversation and walk away. They will soon realize you will not tolerate this kind of behavior.

Okay, so I know what you’re thinking, HOW?! But, when you’re  in desperate need of a plus 1, don’t rule anything out. Before we get into my experience, we want to remind everyone to be smart and remain in public places, tell people where you’re going and who you’re going with – just in case. Be spontaneous but make sure that you always feel safe.

Here is an excerpt from “10 Rules to Survive the Internet Dating Jungle” —

Getting a date is really easier than you think. I was going to a black tie event in Tampa Bay and I wanted a date to accompany me. I had a few guys I know would go, but I wanted to take someone new. So I posted an AD on Craigslist (yes Craigslist) for exactly what I was looking for and got my date in less than 20 minutes.

  1. Be precise in what you are looking for
  2. Within the AD describe in more detail
  3. Post a good photo of you
  4. Weed out responses quickly

Online dating app concept

If you’re not getting the responses you want, it might be your photos, your headline or you’re not describing in detail exactly what you want. Be honest with yourself – how are people really seeing you? Are you representing yourself honestly? Do you need to lose some weight? Get your hair done? Be the best you that you can be and you will attract a partner that you are worthy of and vice versa! Tinder is also a valuable resource for quick dates! Just swipe right for love!

Is He worth Your Time? Here’s how you can tell!

This isn’t about the “third date rule” on when to get physical with your partner! This rule is all about what to do if you’re not feeling a connection with the person you’re dating by the third date.

If you’ve been out on three dates with the same person and you’re just not sure if you’re feeling it, move on. It shouldn’t take that long to discover if you’re attracted to someone or not. Sure they may be witty, charming, nice, sweet, yet if you’re just no convinced they’re the one for you, move on. There’s no point in continuing to date someone if the chemistry isn’t there. They may be the sweetest guy in the world or the nicest girl, but if it doesn’t get your engines going by now it probably won’t ever. Don’t get stuck with someone where you don’t think there’s long term potential. Some people stay in relationships because there’s nothing better to do. If it’s not fulfilling to you, get out and find someone who is. couple-talking-indoors-1443817

Don’t try to so hard to make it work. The more time you spend with Mr./Mrs. Wrong is the less time you have to find Mr./Mrs. Right. After three dates neither party should be too emotionally invested. It’s either to break it off now versus dragging it out longer and breaking hearts. If you’re not sure by date three, be polite and let them know they’re just not the one for you. You should be fully into someone to keep dating them. Be courteous and hopefully you can still gain a friendship from it. Never burn bridges or drag it out to the point where you just can’t stand the site of the other person.

Rob Kardashian Leaks Blac Chyna’s Nudes on Instagram!

Rob Kardashian leaking Blac Chyna’s nudes (the mother of his child) goes to show why sending nude photos of yourself is never a good idea. If you are in an abusive or toxic relationship, NEVER share pictures with your significant other that can be sent to the masses. And in Chyna’s case, THE ENTIRE WORLD!

Extremely explicit photos are the epitome of NSFW! Men and women alike have been victims of having their privacy stolen from them and trust with their significant other (or hook-up partner) broken. And if it can happen to an Olympian, it can certainly happen to you! Sure nude photos seem to the be norm in today’s society. We want everything RIGHT NOW but where’s the mystery? And is there trust? How can you be sure that the photo is only seen by the person it is intended for and their best friend or the entire internet? Not only is it not safe, but it’s sending the wrong message.

rob and chynaIn my book, “10 Rules to Survive the Internet Dating Jungle,” I share my thoughts – and experiences – with nude photos in the dating world. I can’t tell you how many times I have given out my cell phone number or private email address to then be send photos of their penis. The last thing I want to see at 9am as I’m supping my coffee, reading though my emails is a picture of someone’s genitals to pop up. I really don’t understand why men feel the need to do this? Is it a viral way of flashing? Do they get off on this? It makes me block and never speak to them again. I could literally publish an entire book and call it, “Penis’ of the Internet.”

I know some women do this as well. Send full naked body shots to guys they met online. This is the way you get booty calls at 2am, not a way to find a long term relationship. Once you’re committed to someone you can do whatever foreplay you want. BUT make sure this is the one and that there is a mutual respect for each other’s privacy so that your boobs don’t end up on some site. Save those for someone special that deserves it!

Why Staying Single this Summer is the Best Option

You may run into your soulmate any season of the year, so don’t let us discourage you. However, starting up a summer romance isn’t as ideal as The Notebook makes it look. We aren’t college kids anymore, we don’t have the summers to spend at the beach and our nights out at the local carnival – or Busch Gardens – so how can we make this sweaty season sexy?!

Everyone knows that Fall/ Winter is “cuffing season” – this is when couples are able to cuddle without sweating through the sheets and outdoor activities don’t result in armpit stains. Rather than struggling to stay together with a significant other that is wanting to spread their wings (in other words, sleep with other people) use this time to figure out what is best for you.  Summer is a time for friends and scandal – live it up!

Hop on a dating app or site and see who is around you for a cute lunch or a date night! You don’t have to tie anyone down, just explore your options!

cirhdfkvaaam4im-jpg-largeWhen creating your dating profile, you need to be realistic. If you’re an empty envelope you can’t have unrealistic expectations for your partner and expect a successful or meaningful relationship. Be honest in your profile; if you’re not, the truth will eventually come out. Save everyone some time and just put the truth down. Also, watch your tone while you’re writing it. Whatever you put out into the world is going to come back to you in some fashion – so make sure it’s positive! Better yourself to find your better half!

Dear Tara, I expect the guy to pay when we go out. Is that wrong?

We have pulled a question from the archives to share with readers! Check out this question that came from a reader about who should pay when you go out on dates—

Q: I expect the guy to pay when we go out. Is that wrong?

tisdale

A: No, I do not think it’s wrong to expect the guy to pay when you go out on a date. I am more traditional myself, so I feel the same way. If we go dutch it says it’s more of a platonic hanging out versus a date. However, if you are meeting the guy for the first time from an internet dating site, make sure to have the initial 20 min meet-n-greet over coffee. If you pay for the coffee or they pay, it’s really not a big deal and only a few bucks. You just want to make sure you like this person in the flesh prior to a full blown dinner date.  Most gentlemen do not mind paying for a dinner once they have an interest in getting to know you better. On the other hand, if you misrepresented yourself on the dating site in anyway, shape or form and you go on a long dinner date he will probably be upset at having to pay for it if he feels he was being mislead.

Looking for ways to find local singles this Summer?! Register for some single’s events on Eventbrite! Speed dating is definitely something to experience if you’ve never attempted speed dating before.

When going out on first dates it’s important to listen to your date. Sometimes this is easier said than done, especially if you’re a nervous talker. You start getting anxiety and keep talking to cover it up, yet you actually are showing that you are nervous. If you find yourself doing this, stop, take a deep breath and listen. speed-dating

The last time I went speed-dating I thought I would conduct an experiment to see how many men asked me what I did for a living without me volunteering the information. Only three out of eight guys did. I asked them plenty of questions about themselves that they were happy to tell me. However it’s a two-sided street, not a one-way avenue in getting to know someone. When your date asks you a question, when you are done answering flip it back to them. If you only have six minutes to leave an impression on someone, talking only about yourself that entire time isn’t going to get you far.
