Here is this week’s nightmare date from Amanda, a poet friend of Gigi’s who is single, and still has not found the one. It is not your typical nightmare date, in that it was a date that went wrong. it is more like a date that didn’t go where Amanda wanted it to go. How often has that happened to people out there? when there is someone you really like, but they only see you as a friend? That must be one of the worst things in the world… Gigi had a guy like that, her Belleville dad who only ever saw her as a friend, whereas she would have taken him home and never let him go!!

Helen: Month of August
Helen, Heidi and Gideon (my 3yr old son) had our last hurrah of the summer on Mackinac Island today. It was a blast! Although there were many nice looking men there..we didn’t have time too look at them. We were too busy riding bikes around the island,looking in fun, little shops and trying fudge at every corner. We have mentioned Mackinac Island to be a beautiful place to take a date before, but today I could truly appreciate the possibility of that. The scenery alone is romantic enough….and add a boat ride and a horse drawn carriage ride after dinner and the women will be swooning, gentlemen. I can’t wait to go back again! Perhaps one of these days, I will find a man who can accompany me. By the way….I am taking applications, resumes, physical exam records, and credit histories of all interested applicants! Lmao.
Gigi: Month of August
At last
Gigi was asked today why she didn’t put up a dating status since the end of June…The answer was simple. There was no one worth writing about!! She did go on a few dates that went nowhere, not even worth the time to write about here. Though some did make the nightmare date category, they just didn’t merit a status update…. But enough about the weeks that went nowhere. Let’s talk about what IS going somewhere… what is feeling so right and perfect that Gigi is head over heels falling in love.

Long Distance Relationship Advice #2: Communication is vital
As promised, we have a new category on how to make a long distance relationship work… because trust me, if normal up close relationships are hard to maintain, long distance relationships can be twice as hard. They are not impossible, and I’ve seen many work out. But they will only work out if both sides of the relationship work hard at it.

Top “Ten” #29: What NOT to say to a friend who is falling on love?
Last week our top ten was what not to say to someone who has just had a break up. I thought I’d try the opposite this week and ask what not to say to your friend who is falling on love. Both are very tricky, sticky situations, aren’t they? And yet at times it may seem as though our friends just open their mouths and speak to us without thinking of the damage their words are going to do to us… Continue reading ‘Top “Ten” #29: What NOT to say to a friend who is falling on love?’

Dating Tip #29: Is it ok to date the ex of your friend?
Not too long ago, Steve, the guy that Gigi dated for over a month, hinted to Gigi in a text that he liked her friend Helen. Gigi was thoroughly shocked. He had seemed like such a nice guy. He had ended up just not having time, or energy or money to be in a relationship. Gigi, liking him enough to remain friends (she never fell in love with him), told him that their “thing” was going nowhere, and that they should just be friends.

Dating Advice #29: Do you know what you want and do not want in a relationship?
People often fall into relationships. They meet on online, go on a date, and before you know it, they are falling head over heels in love. I think that it is very important to know what you do and don’t want in a relationship, before you are in one, and then try and make sure that is what you aim for when you meet someone.

Relationship Advice #29: What is your advice for the newly divorced or broken-up
Divorce (or a break up from a serious relationship) is always hard… on both the parties, the one who wanted the break up, and the one who didn’t. The one who wanted it can be filled with guilt and remorse at having hurt someone they once loved, and of course, the one being left behind is filled with confusion and hurt on how it all came to this.

Every now and then, Sassy looks for new sex toy websites to be able to review their products… after all, one can never get enough of a good thing, right?
