The Dating Game

 Hello Love Bugs!

I've been doing a lot of reading about relationships lately and I find one thing very bothersome. It seems like the advice goes like this:


  • Play hard to get. 
  • Don't act like you're too interested. 
  • Keep your distance. 
  • Make him chase you. 
  • Stay independent. 
  • Wait a while before you answer text messages. 
  • Don't be the first to text in the morning. 


Really?? This is what they call sound advice?  I don't see how this makes any sense at all.

I am a 100% believer in honesty and open hearted love.  Why would anyone want to "pretend" they feel nothing or even less than they really do?

A brilliant counselor taught me about " conscious vulnerability". It it the concept and practice of having an open heart, of giving and receiving love and of taking the chance to love and be loved even though you might get hurt.

If you want to play games, your love life will BE a game.  If you want to get real, find love and give love:


  • TELL it like it is.
  • OPEN your heart.
  • BE true to yourself. 
  • CHOOSE to be consciously vulnerable.
  • KNOW yourself and your feelings. 
  • EXPRESS your feelings without fear. 
  • LOVE  and to be loved. 


Remember "Tis better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all".
-Alfred Lord Tennyson.

Be Calm and Love On!!
