A Picture is NOT Always Worth a Thousand Words

It is comical how differently men and women think. Posing in your profile without a shirt (despite your eight pack) or with your sleek, new (leased) Porsche is NOT a turn on. That said, admittedly, I have dated those persons – fortunately for us we met offline or the relationship ...

Rocky

On a gorgeous spring-to-be day, I was out running along the museums and boat houses in Philadelphia. I continued my workout going up the infamous "Rocky steps" with my iPod fortuitously playing “Eye of the Tiger.” Cheesy? Absolutely, but pretty funny as this was my first occasion on the steps ...

Should I Keep Going?

Dear Gems from Jen, I feel that I'm in need of some advice! I have been seeing a guy for a few months now. He is really lovely and sweet and treats me nicely. My problem is that he doesn't seem to have much oomph to his personality. He still lives ...

Being in the Moment

This is my mantra today, this week, shooting for this month, and so on...It won't be easy, I'm a planner; the Type A, where itineraries, schedules and plans have a calming effect. Not to say that I'm not an impetuous gal at the same time. John Lennon sang to us ...

Dear Gems from Jen, I'm new to online dating after being divorced for three years. I thought now that I'm 38 years old and the men I'm meeting are in their forties, things would be more clear cut. Unfortunately, they are not. It seems like if a guy pursues me and ...

Sole mate or Soul mate?

If you have read my blog before you can gather that I have watched one too many fairytale Hollywood romantic movies in my time. On a recent double date, being kids in a candy shop "literally" in Dylan's CandyLand, the other woman on the date conveyed to me that she ...
