Dating advice: Tell three stories that light you up and make you feel a lot about yourself. "You don't need 10 out of 10 people to like you," she says, but one person who will really like you if you show them your best side. Don't spend your date complaining about the waiter or the menu or your boss. Talk about what you want, not what you don't.

How the hell do grown ups date and make friends? Behavioral scientist turned dating coach, Logan Ury is here to help us make dating and meeting new friends easier: how to identify what you really want; why we should stop searching for “the spark”; why we keep going after the same people that are wrong for us; how to talk to our kids about their first love experiences; why we need to have “other significant others”; and the eight questions you should ask yourself after meeting anyone new.
