Want a cheap, fun date? Stay home with a cheesy romance movie, popcorn, and a bottle of wine. You can actually watch the show or (the better option) make out like you did when you first started dating and forget the movie is even on!
Neil Strauss’s The Game fell into my hands by accident, the way most strange and slightly sticky things do. You might have heard of this book.

Dear Madame X, Is there any food that can make a person horny? We have all heard the rumours about oysters and green M&Ms but there must be something that can cause a positive chemical reaction. I’m not trying to manipulate anyone here, but it would be good to be able to use all the ...
In high school there was a rumour that some girl broke into her boyfriend’s house and painted “You + Me Forever” in red paint on his wall. All the boys believed it at the time, but I was skeptical. Now I completely convinced it was just a story. Urban legends about the exploits of the ...

The survey of 434 heterosexual couples aged 18-25 found that many times one person is convinced the couple is monogamous while the other believes they have an open relationship. ...
Sure feminism may have given you equal rights, but it’s taken away your ability to nab a man. The newest dating book to declare than men don’t want a partner, they want a robowife, has hit the shelves. If you want to marry a controlling mama’s boy by tricking him into proposing, then this book ...
