So many guys don't really know what a fun date looks like to their wives, just as many women don't know what fun sex looks like to their husband! In this episode I discuss why dates often go awry, how to fix this, how to empathize, and why men and women get each other so wrong while having the best of intentions!

I'm so sick of guys saying women don't want nice men. Healthy women definitively want kind, helpful and caring men. The few women that want narcissistic assholes generally have Borderline Personality Disorder and an abuse history that makes them feel "at home" with guys who mistreat them. Thankfully this is a very low percent of women. Most guys have to be nicer, as do most women. Listen for an infusion of common sense.

Also listen for which I recommend first, meds or therapy (answer may surprise you).

I have gotten this question a few times, from those who are the single parent in this situation and want to know how it will impact their kids, and from those who grew up with a single parent but are trying now to work on their own marriages in the absence of seeing a relationship template growing up. Here, we discuss the various effects I've seen on clients of growing up with a single parent!

Some readers ask, if it seems like a lot of work and bother to date after divorce, does this mean I am avoidant attachment and unhealthy? No, it means that you are happy single. If you truly feel like a relationship is more trouble than it's worth, do not date or try to remarry. Here's who usually feels this way, why, and why it's okay to admit it. Also, halfway through the episode, we turn to women who are ambivalent about dating after divorce, and how this impacts how their kids end up feeling about the new partners they introduce them to!
