I have never been able to deal with numbers very well. I didn’t get the process or the language. I thought “Calculus” was some Greek God with the power to make men’s brains to explode. Balancing a checkbook is more difficult than balance a VW Beetle on my head. »more»

Never fear: this is not a political exposé. Instead, it's a reflection on a fascinating conversation that I had with Dr. Jed Diamond last night on my internet radio program. As you may know, Dr. Jed is the author of the best-selling books, Male Menopause and The Irritable Male Syndrome. What I didn't know about Dr. »more»

For the past few days, I've been reading Dr. Jed Diamond's newest book, The Irritable Male Syndrome with rapt attention (in advance of interviewing him on my upcoming internet radio program). In my estimation, this book is required reading for anyone in the helping professions. It explores a complex of issues that work together in men to create a raging animal out of concerned and loving person. »more»

The three emotional characteristics that most clearly define a man in midlife are 'restless', 'irritable' and 'discontent'. No wonder they 'can't get no satisfaction'! »more»

If I didn't know better (but I'm not sure that I do), I'd say the world was having a midlife crisis. Whether it's about half-way through it's life span, I don't know; but I do think that it's behaving just like a middle-aged guy. »more»

The most popular topic on Oprah.com lately has been about the two most recent visits by Dr. M. Gary Neuman, author of “The Truth About Cheating”. Women by the millions tuned in both days to find out the answer to this most frustrating, devastating and destructive subject, only to find out that, in a nut shell, it was primarily their fault. »more»

To be fair, all those Internet dating sites do what they do well. But then again, so do nuclear warheads, and I don’t think I’d have much luck around them either.

I realize what heresy it is to say something like that in this particular time at this particular place. Dating websites are everywhere. Match.com. eHarmony. True. Chemistry. Lavalife. JDate. Matchmaker. Seriously, there are more sites devoted to dating than the number of women I’ve dated in my entire life. And each one of them promises that you’ll find your soulmate, if you’ll just sign up for a nominal monthly fee. Who says you can’t put a price on love?

Far be it from me to be cynical (okay, maybe it’s not that far) about these places. I know two people who met and married their spouse via an online matchmaker. Still, I while it may work for some people, Internet dating is also a torture Satan thought up after a few shots of Jack Daniels. »more»

Mid-Life Crisis (MLC) is very much like childbirth...whether it be for a man or a woman, it is the re-birthing of a person....it has it's stages of labor...and we transition from one stage to another.  Many women handle this birthing better than others...many choose to take medication or numb themselves to get through it, while others opt to have a C- section and remove themselves, so they can be »more»

I was recently asked to comment on Oprah magazine columnist Ellen Tien's "She's Happily Married, Dreaming of Divorce." Eagerly I clicked the link and began reading, wondering why it had been sent to me in particular for comment. »more»
